Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in India It beams highly concentrated light into hair follicles. The pigment in the follicles absorb the light. That destroys the hair.

Precision: Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.

Speed: Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.

Predictability: Most patients have permanent hair loss after an average of three to seven sessions.

Tips for taking care of Dry skin

The skin naturally produces an oil called sebum. When the skin produces too much oil, this can lead to pimples. However, having some sebum on the skin is important for keeping it hydrated and protecting the cells from infection.

Skin that is not creating or replenishing enough sebum can become dry.

Dry skin can be itchy, and it may look flaky and bumpy or have red patches. Dehydrated skin lacks water and appears dull or rough. 

Some potential causes of dry or dehydrated skin on the face include:
  • Cold weather
  • Dry air
  • Exposure to harsh chemicals in soaps or other products
  • Washing the skin excessively
  • Unbalanced skin pH
  • Skin conditions, such as atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis
  • Diabetes
  • Hypothyroidism
  • smoking
  • spending too much time in direct sunlight

People can treat dry skin using several different methods. The best treatment option will depend on the cause of someone's dry skin and its severity. Treatments also vary among different skin types, which can be normal, dry, oily, or a combination.

1. Use Moisturize daily

Moisturizers, ointments, and creams improve the skin's natural barrier function, which promotes water retention. Moisturizing overnight can provide extra benefits. A person can apply moisturizer to their face before bed and wash it off with a gentle cleanser in the morning.

Coconut oil and shea butter contain natural oils. Some people with normal, oily, or combination skin types may experience breakouts after using these products.

2. Use a gentle cleanser

Soaps that contain fragrances, colors, and other chemicals can irritate and dry out the skin. It is generally better to opt for mild, fragrance-free cleansers or facial soaps and to avoid products that contain alcohol, artificial colors, and plastics.

3. Exfoliate to remove excess dry skin

The skin naturally makes new cells and sheds old cells, typically replacing itself within about a month.

When dead skin cells become stuck on the surface, people may notice dry patches and clogged pores.
Exfoliating helps remove dead skin cells, which can reduce dry patches and improve the skin's overall texture.

Exfoliators can be either mechanical or chemical.
  • Mechanical exfoliators
  • Chemical exfoliators

A person should avoid exfoliating every day as this can irritate and dry out the skin. Applying a good moisturizer immediately after exfoliating will help lock in moisture.

People can use the following tips to prevent dry skin on their face:
  • Washing the face daily with a gentle cleanser
  • Wearing sunscreen every day
  • Applying moisturizer after bathing or washing the face
  • Using warm, not hot, water when washing the face and bathing
  • Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water
  • Limiting caffeine intake
  • Limiting time in direct sunlight

If dry skin does not improve or it worsens, a person can visit their dermatologist says by Dr. Manju Keshari , the Senior Dermatologist at KEMS SKIN Clinic, Vaishali, Ghaziabad.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that’s used to treat skin concerns via collagen production. Also known as collagen induction therapy, this treatment may help those looking to reduce the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks.

It’s also used in certain anti-aging procedures, such as eyelid surgery and sunspots. Microneedling isn’t effective for hair loss, despite the possible role of collagen in hair growth.

You may be an ideal candidate for this procedure if you’re in good health and have certain skin concerns that haven’t responded to the home treatments or other types of dermatologic procedures, such as peels. 

This may also be a final step before considering cosmetic surgery for anti-aging and other concerns. Learn more about microneedling and talk to your dermatologist to see if this is the right option for your skin. Microneedling is a dermaroller procedure that uses small needles to prick the skin.

The purpose of treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Microneedling is mostly used on the face and may treat various scars, wrinkles, and large pores.

Safety:
  • Microneedling is minimally invasive, requiring no downtime.
  • It’s considered safe for most people who are in overall good health.
  • The procedure isn’t safe for people who use certain acne medications or for women who are pregnant.
  • You’ll experience minor redness and irritation for a few days after the procedure.

Convenience:
  • Total prep and procedure time is about two hours.
  • You’ll need to see a board-certified dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or cosmetic surgeon for this procedure. In some states, an aesthetician may also be able to perform the procedure if supervised by a physician.
  • You may need at least four procedures or more for the best results.

Efficacy:
  • It’s considered effective in treating minor scarring related to acne, wounds, and aging. You’ll likely notice brighter, firmer skin, too.
  • Ideal results are achieved after multiple sessions.
  • Micro-needling is far more effective than at-home rollers.

Kemps skin Clinic, Vaishali provide Micro-needling (derma roller) Therapy at the clinic you may contact and book a prior appointment for better services.

What is Dull Skin and How to manage it?

Dull skin tone is a result of excess dead skin cells that build up on the surface of the skin. Your skin can lose its natural luminosity because of dryness, damaged cells or slow cell turnover, all of which can happen at any age and in any season.

What Causes Dull Skin?

Dull skin tone is typically a result of poor circulation. Common factors that cause dull skin include smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, dehydration, and poor diet. Basically, any triggers that deprive your skin of much-needed oxygen and nutrients will result in dull skin tone. Lack of exfoliation — the sloughing off of dead skin cells — can also cause dull skin. Dull skin is also often one of the first signs of aging, as skin renewal decreases about 7% every 10 years.

Cause of skin dullness:  

  • Pigmentation
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Wrong use of skin products
  • Overexposure to the sun.

Tanning makes the skin look more dark and burnt due to sun exposure. It can be avoided by
  • Regular use of sunscreen
  • Use of hats and shades
  • Avoiding the sun between 10 to 4pm
  • Protective clothing
  • Tanning can be removed by
  • Hydration with hydra facial
  • Lighteners like kojic acid, arbutin, glycolic and lactic acid
  • Retinoid peels
  • Q switched laser
  • Skin polishing

Pigmentation is the formation of melasma or chloasma due to hormonal factors during pregnancy, medicines, and inheritance in the family. melasma can be controlled by
  • Medicines
  • Chemical peeling
  • Avoidance of sun
  • Diligent use of sunscreen
  • Photo facials

How to Prevent Dull Skin: The best way to prevent dull skin is to avoid triggers like smoking, and by eating a balanced, nutrient-rich diet and drinking plenty of water. Also consulting with skin specialists will help you to know your skin better says by Dr. Manju Keshri, senior dermatologist at KEMPS SKIN Clinic. Starting a smart anti-aging skin regimen of exfoliation and antioxidant-rich products in one’s 30s can also be an effective way to prevent dull skin. So keep smiling and glowing.

What is Scar and how it’s treated by dermatologist?

What is a scar?

A scar is an area of fibrous tissue that replaces normal skin after an injury. Scars result from the biological process of wound repair in the skin, as well as in other organs and tissues of the body. Thus, scarring is a natural part of the healing process.

What are the main types of scars?

Hypertrophic scars: These are red scars that rise above the skin. They do not spread beyond the spot where the injury occurred. Possible treatments include steroid injections and laser surgery.

Keloids: These scars jut out from the skin and spread beyond the spot where the injury occurred. They are caused by the overproduction of certain cells. Over time, keloids may affect mobility (ability to move). Possible treatments include surgery, laser surgery ,radiation or steroid injections. Smaller keloids can be removed with cryotherapy  (freezing therapy using liquid nitrogen). You can also prevent keloids by using pressure treatment, silicone gel. Keloids are more common in darker skin types, specifically people of African or Asian descent. 

Contracture scars: These scars typically occur after the skin is burned. They cause tightening (contracting) of the skin that can reduce the ability to move. This type of scar can go into muscles and nerves.

Acne scars: Any type of acne can leave behind scars. There are many types of acne scars, and they can be shallow or quite deep. Treatment depends on the type of scars.

What are possible treatments for scars?

Over-the-counter or prescription creams, ointments, or gels: These products may reduce scars that are caused by surgical incisions (cuts) or other injuries or wounds. If you are under the care of a dermatologist or plastic surgeon, ask your doctor for recommendations. Treatment options include corticosteroids or antihistamine creams (if your scars are sensitive and cause itching). Your doctor may also recommend intralesional steroid injections, pressure dressings, or silicone gel sheeting to prevent acne scars and to help treat existing scars.

Surgery: There are many options under this category, including skin grafts, excision (removal), or laser surgery. When looking into surgery, discuss with your doctor whether you will have local anesthesia with an oral sedative, or general anesthesia. If you’ve recently had plastic, cosmetic, or other surgery that has caused your scars, it is best to wait at least one year before making a decision about scar removal treatment. Many scars fade and become less noticeable over time.

Injections: In the case of protruding scars such as keloids or hypertrophic scars, your doctor may choose to use steroid injections to flatten the scars. Such injections can be used as a stand-alone treatment, or in combination with other treatments.

Laser therapy:  Laser therapy uses focused beams of light to treat damaged areas on the body. It can remove tumors and other growths, improve vision, stop hair loss, and treat pain. Laser therapy can also improve the appearance of scars.

Laser treatment for scars is an outpatient procedure. Your the doctor repeatedly moves a laser wand over your skin to remove damaged skin cells and diminish scars. These include:

  • Injury scars
  • Burn marks
  • Acne scars
  • Dark spots,
  •  Age spots
Because this procedure involves heat and light, your doctor may not recommend it if you have light sensitivity. Certain medications can cause this type of sensitivity. Be sure to speak with your doctor to see if you’re a good candidate.

Your doctor may also discourage laser treatments if you take blood-thinning medications due to the risk of bleeding and if you have active acne, skin sores & darker skin

Contact KEMPS skin clinic they have the latest equipment and the technique to remove scar by laser.

Makeup allergy and its treatment

Common Signs of a Makeup Allergy: Some ingredients in skincare products can cause skin allergy. Allergies should be differentiated from other reactions such as skin irritation caused by active ingredients like retinoic, lactic and glycolic acid (red, flaking skin without the itch) or acne breakouts that are produced by comedogenic (pore-clogging) ingredients.

An allergic reaction from makeup, or allergic contact dermatitis often appears as red, itchy and flaky rashes that can even crack or appear like blisters in the most severe cases (when infected, for example. 

The rash typically occurs where you have applied the makeup; though it can technically appear anywhere you have had contact with the exposure. For the majority, this means the eyelids and the delicate skin surrounding the eyes, which is up to five times thinner than the rest of the skin on the face.

In some cases, skin reactions to makeup could take time and require several applications before manifesting. “One of the most important things to know about contact dermatitis, which also makes it the most challenging, is that the reaction does not always appear right away. Sometimes, you can be using the products for weeks, months or even years before you start having symptoms,” says by a dermatologist.

Some elements in a product that cause allergy

Lanolin or Wool Alcohols: Used as an emollient and lubricant often found in foundations, eye shadows, blushes, mascaras, eyeliners, moisturizers, face masks, lipsticks, and lip balms.
Nickel: A common contaminant found in pigments that are used in eye shadows, hair dyes, costume jewelry, and antiperspirants.

Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) and Methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCT): Antibacterial and anti-fungal preservatives found in mascara, makeup remover, liquid soaps, cleansers and other personal care products.

Balsam of Peru: A fragrant resin, with a scent similar to that of vanilla and cinnamon, typically added to essential oils, hair products, baby powders, and sunscreens.

How to Treat a Makeup Allergy:

Treatment of an allergic reaction from cosmetics depends on the situation, to quickly calm any redness or itching, Dr. suggests treating the area with a cool compress before applying topical creams like hydrocortisone or calamine lotion. “Finally, over-the-counter oral antihistamines may be used to reduce inflammation”. For severe reactions, or when the irritation involves swelling in your eyelids, tongue, lips or mouth and difficulty in breathing or speaking, senior skin specialist says that it’s best to consult your doctor while facing such an issue.
