2 nd dose of covishield vaccine ⠀
⠀
It was important to post this picture not to set or follow any trend out there, but to assure everyone that it’s completely safe to take this vaccine and we had to take the initiative as a health care professional ! ⠀
⠀
Been almost 36 hours post vaccination ⠀
⠀
- mild myalgia and fatigue that lasted for few hours ⠀
- arm soreness ⠀
- and that’s all , I was able to go ahead with my regular routine ⠀
⠀
To know why I got vaccinated - check out my 1 st dose vaccination post

And yes it is important to wear mask even after getting vaccinated ⠀
⠀
Get your jab when you get the chance to ! ⠀

This sweet patient came to me a little over 6 months ago to work on acne and scarring ⠀
⠀
And one of the most beautiful thing as an aesthetician is to see your patient’s confidence and happiness dramatically increase as their skin gets better ⠀
⠀
📌Procedure : co 2 laser resurfacing ⠀
📌Results: after 6 sessions ( 3 weeks apart) ⠀
📌Pain : topical anaesthetic cream ⠀
📌Cost : customised ( varies with scar severity) ⠀
📌Recovery: 3-5 days of downtime ⠀
⠀
⠀
How co 2 resurfx laser works ?! ⠀
⠀
Laser beams vaporize micro channels deep into the skin to remodel the scar tissue and blend them in with the surrounding skin ⠀
⠀
And like I always tell my patients, get your acne treated at the earliest to prevent scarring and pigmentation ⠀

Hair loss can be an overwhelming, frustrating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. ⠀
⠀
✅ hair loss is not simple, it is actually quite complex and needs a complete evaluation ⠀
⠀
✅hair loss is multifactorial. There is usually not a single cause for your hair loss ⠀
-aging ⠀
-genetics ⠀
-stress ⠀
-medications ⠀
-diet ⠀
-trauma ⠀
-systemic disorders ⠀
-haircare practices ⠀
⠀
✅ treatment is available, but I have a good and bad news. ⠀
👎🏻the bad : there aren’t a ton of treatment options ⠀
👍🏻the good : some of the treatments that we dermatologist have can be very effective ⠀
⠀
✅ the longer you wait to treat hair loss , the more you risk developing scarring. Once scarring occurs it becomes more difficult to regrow hair. ⠀
⠀
✅ hair loss is not a cosmetic concern. It can have a significant psychological impact one one’s quality of life . Seek help before it’s too late. ⠀
