The solution to permanent hair removal from dermatologist in dwarka


In the yesteryears body was not an issue for most people, but with time as people became conscious of how they look, they realized that removing body hair helped them to improve their appearance. They began to understand the value of having that flawless silky smooth skin every time they step out. With time there were many tried and tested methods that people used for the removal of body hair, such as shaving, waxing and the use of an epilator. But these are all temporary methods of hair removal, and even though it may give you a few days of relief from having to see the hair growing on your body, you will have to go through the routine of having to remove them, on a frequent basis.
This is why laser treatment for the removal of body hair has become so popular, because with multiple session, laser treatment reduce your hair growth to almost zero, and you will be saved from the trouble of having to undergo various other treatments in order to keep removing your body hair from time to time.

Why you should choose laser hair removal:

Most people are always left wondering if the laser hair removal method is superior to the more conventional methods such as shaving and waxing. And the answer is yes, it is more effective than these methods especially when it is carried out by a dermatologist in Dwarka. This is because, one, it is a more permanent method of hair removal, two, it’s definitely more cost-effective, three its time saving and four it’s painless and hassle-free. All of the above-mentioned factors are what are pushing more and more women to opt for laser treatment as the preferred method of hair removal. It has revolutionized the way women deal with body hair, and although the effectiveness and safety of the laser hair removal have been well established, how well you, as an individual response to the treatment depends on several factors, which include:

Hair color:

Although skin color doesn’t affect the way laser hair removal in Dwarka works the color of your hair does play a role. Because laser treatment targets the pigment called melanin which is present in our skin and hair, and is what gives the color to our hair skin. Therefore the growth of black/brown can be easily reduced with about 6 sessions whereas white/blonde hair is more difficult to deal with, and we cannot guarantee a permanent reduction and how many sessions will be involved for this.

The region of your body:

The effectiveness of laser treatment for removal of body hair also depends on the area of your body you are targeting. Some of the more common places where people prefer to have the hair permanently removed include the upper lip, face, bikini line, underarms, arms and legs and back, and sideburns in women, as well as chest and back in men. Underarm and bikini line hair are more easily treated than facial hair which takes up to about 6 sessions to be treated effectively.

Patience is required:

When you plan to undergo laser hair removal treatment you need to be patient. Because the desired result cannot be achieved immediately with this. After the first session, you may experience some swelling and redness in the region where the laser was applied which will only last for a couple of days. Following this only about 20% of hair will be permanently destroyed whereas the rest of it will slowly grow back over a period of 4 to 6 weeks after which time you will be asked to come for your next session.

The availability of home devices:

If you are looking for a solution that allows you to get it done in the privacy of your home rather than multiple visits to the dermatologist, home devices are also available for us when it comes to laser hair removal. Although they may be slower than the professional ones used in dermatological clinics, they have been approved by the FDA and are now considered safe and effective.

Photo facial treatment for your flawless skin

Flawless skin is something that each of us dreams, especially when it comes to our face. We all want that perfectly glowing, spotless skin that is blemish and wrinkle-free. And there are many remedies that people try out in order to maintain their skin and keep it looking flawless.
As you may all be aware, one of the main culprits when it comes to causing skin related problems is exposure to sunlight. Although we do need some amount of exposure to sunlight when it comes to maintaining healthy skin, too much of can lead to the development of a sun-tan, skin darkening and even damage to the skin.
Although a sun screen may help to reduce the amount of damage that occurs to your skin as a result of daily exposure to sunlight, it cannot entirely prevent it and in the long run, you will definitely be able to see the changes that are occurring to your skin as a result of this damage.
Of late, more and more people are turning towards photo facial treatment carried out by a skin specialist in Janakpuri, as the answer to reverse this damage that occurs as a result of exposure to sunlight. And, we are here to explain to you all about photo facial treatment and how it can benefit you.

What is photo facial treatment?

It is a light-based treatment that helps to reverse a y changes that may have occurred to your skin as a result of too much exposure to sunlight. Along with this, it also helps solve other skin issues that people may be having, because during this treatment, your skin becomes rejuvenated, and there is a boost of collagen and elastin production in the skin, making it look healthier, and helping to solve many other skin related issues.

What are the benefits of photo facial treatment?

Because of this increased elastin and collagen production, there are multiple benefits to the skin which include:
  • Improvement of skin texture and tone
  • Reduces skin blemishes
  • Reduces dark spots
  • Skin pores are tightened
  • Reduces acne scars
  • Reduces wrinkles on the skin
  • Reduces the development of acne
  • Helps with the treatment of Rosacea, a condition which develops as a result of an enlarged blood vessel and causes your skin to look red
You might still be wondering why you should opt for photo facial treatment when there are many other types of treatments that address the same issues. Added to the above-mentioned benefits, you should also know that this treatment is less time consuming, with a session usually taking only up to 20 minutes, and never exceeding 1 hour. It can be used on various parts of the body, including the face, back, arms and neck. It can be done in conjunction with other skincare treatments and its effects are long-lasting.

What are the different kinds of photo facial treatments available?

There are 2 different types of photo facial treatments available, which is the LED (Light Emitting Diode) treatment and the IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment, which are both different from your regular facial. Led treatment is less intense, and involves using different handheld light-emitting devices to your skin, which then help to boost collagen production and can help resolve minor issues such as wrinkles and blemishes.
IPL treatment is more intense than LED and involves the use of a powerful light whose wavelength is outside that of laser, and this light then penetrates deep into the skin to boost production of elastin and collagen but does not cause any harm. Both these types of treatment will leave your skin looking younger and rejuvenated.

Should you pop pimples? – Listen from the Dermatologist in Janakpuri


Pimples are unavoidable at some stage of our life. We see people complain of pimples when they eat certain kinds of foods when they are overly exposed to dust or smoke, women when they are nearing their mensuration, when they switch to a different unsuitable substance to their skin, etc. The dermatologist in Janakpuri says, commonly pimples are a result of excessive oil production, excessive hormonal production, hair follicles being clogged by oil and dead skin cells or development of bacteria.
Whatever the reason could be, we hate pimples as they destroy the beauty of our face. When a pimple appears out, we tend to check out its appearance in the mirror several times and finally, somehow we pinch it and break it. Have you noticed a whitish fluid that comes out of a pimple, once you pop it?

Pimples appear with pus

Pimples with pus appear from both inflammation and as an immune response. The dermatologist in Janakpuri explains that pimple pus is made from oil, dead skin cells, debris and bacteria that get trapped in your skin holes. When the pimples are proactive and inflammatory, your immune system gets activated in this area that results in noticeable pus, or whitish fluid inside the pimple. As the inflammation improves, the pus-filled pimples will also improve and go down gradually.

What happens when you pop pimples?

It is so well understood why we tend to pop pimples. It is because we want the pimples to go off from our eye-site very soon. But, we are not doing the right thing by popping the pimples sooner than the time they take to go off on their own.
According to the dermatologist in Janakpuri, here are the consequences of popping pimples –
  • Increased swelling and redness at the pimple site, then it was before
  • The bacteria inside the pimple can spread around and cause more infection
  • Erupted pus will get spread to near skin and lead to more pimples
  • An open wound is exposed to germs and would cause severe infection
  • The healing time of wounded scabs is higher than you letting the pus to settle by its own
  • Pimple scars are very difficult to treat; they take years to fade away and need additional treatment
  • Dark marks or discoloration of the skin is left in the place of popped pimples
Popping, breaking, squeezing or you are any other attempt to remove pimples and not letting them to heal naturally is definitely not the right way of treating the pimples.

How do you treat pimples?

Pimples, when given the right treatment will start to disappear on their own. You may see first the pus disappears, then the redness in the pimple site and gradually overall pimple lesions lessen. Above everything else, you must keep your hands away from the pimple and control your urge to pop or squeeze out the pus.
You may heard from your mothers and grandmothers many home remedies for treating pimples. Lavender oil, fish oil, tea tree oil, probiotics, zinc supplements, etc. are few ingredients of such home remedies. One may get over-the-counter medications without consulting any specialists to cure the troubling pimples. The dermatologist in Janakpuri knows well the secrets of long-trusted ingredients and prescribes oral and topical medications and therapies to cure your pimples effectively and even quicker.
Retinoids and retinoid-like drugs, antibiotics, salicylic acid, and azelaic acid, dapsone, etc. are commonly recommended topical medications by the dermatologists. Oral antibiotics, combined oral contraceptives, anti-androgen agents, isotretinoin, etc. are commonly recommended oral medications to treat pimples. A few occasions dermatologists would also give you recommendations for therapies such as steroid injections, lasers, and photodynamic therapies, etc. Only the specialists would be able to assess your severity and requirement of effective treatment.
You may not choose to visit a specialist if you are just having one or a few pimples. Maintaining the pimple site clean, avoiding frequent touching or squeezing by hands and trying out home remedies would be helpful at these occasions. However, if pimples are bothering you too much and you feel it is uncontrollable, it is always advisable to visit a specialist. The dermatologist in Janakpuri, not only gives the effective treatment but also would give adequate support to fully overcome the problem with his experience and specialized service.

Safe Technologies Used To Treat Stretch Marks



Stretch marks (striae) are long, thin white stripes on the skin that are caused by pregnancy, sudden weight gain or loss, and growth spurts during puberty. Rapid and excessive stretching of the skin leaves it no time to adjust and repair, leading to the breakdown of collagen fibers.

Safe Technologies Used To Treat Stretch Marks

Various treatment modalities are available that can reduce the appearance of stretch marks on the body. Unfortunately, no oral pills or topical OTC (over the counter) creams work satisfactorily on stretch marks.

Micro Needling Radio Frequency (Endymed Intensif)

This procedure uses tiny needles to create microscopic injuries in the skin, allowing new collagen formation (COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY). New collagen formation leads to shrinkage and tightening of skin, reducing the appearance of the stretch marks.

Fractional Ablative Co2 Laser (Futura Rf 50)

Fractional CO2 laser delivers tiny pinpoints of laser light to the affected area on the skin in a net-like distribution. The laser beams penetrate the skin and create micro-wounds that kick-start the healing process by producing new collagen.This provides new strength to the skin and leads to tightening and shrinkage. Thus reducing the appearance of the stretch marks.
Pain factor
Numbing or anesthetic cream applied to the area prior to the procedure renders it pretty comfortable. A mild prickling sensation may be experienced but it is easily tolerated by the patient.
Sessions Required
A minimum of 6-8 sessions are required, depending on the severity of stretch marks.
Possible Side Effects
Mild redness and swelling may appear post-procedure, which usually fade off within few hours. When high energy levels are used for deep stretch marks, scabs or crust formation may occur (similar to what we get after a wound), which shed off within 5 days.

Precautions Before And After The Procedure

Hair Removal: Treatment like waxing or laser hair removal should be avoided two weeks prior to the treatment.
Sun Exposure: Extended exposure to the sun after the procedure should be avoided.
Avoid any sort of work or physical exercise that will irritate the skin.

What To Expect From The Treatment?

Reduction of red (striaerubra) and white (striae alba) stretch marks along with improvement in the texture of skin. Gradual reduction in the severity and visibility of stretch marks is noticed with subsequent sessions.
