Thanks for the query.
To remove flex you can use olive oil or some vegetable oil let it brcome soft and then remove it by soft brush.
For hair loss you can remove all the hairs once then they can come rejunuvated.
Also try candid lotion for local application.
See a dermatologist if problem persists.
