Be it uneven skin, tanning, dullness, dark circles, blemishes, acne scars or fine lines, skin problems have concerned women for decades.

HYDERABAD: Be it uneven skin, tanning, dullness, dark circles, blemishes, acne scars or fine lines, skin problems have concerned women for decades. From homemade remedies to clinical treatments women have tried it all but with no avail or some side effects. Not only does your hectic schedule prevent you from maintaining a healthy skin care routine but also adversely affects your skin robbing it of its natural glow. 

Laser Light Treatment
This technology uses short, concentrated beams of light that penetrates deep into the skin targeting various skin issues and treating them not only superficially but also from their very root. While the results for some skin treatments can be seen after weeks, the result for laser light treatment reflects on your face instantly.  

Chemical peels
A chemical peel uses a chemical solution to smooth the texture of your skin by removing the damaged outer layers. The drawback is that the procedure does not work as well on dark-skinned patients.

The procedure is also not recommended for individuals with infections, skin disease, cut or broken skin, sunburns or major skin problems. 

Botox injections: 
Botox is an injectable medicine that is made from Botulinum bacteria, and it is a toxin that is very effective in making facial wrinkles almost insignificant. The procedure helps rid your skin of superficial as well as deep wrinkles. 

Dermabrasion: 
Dermabrasion is often used to treat certain types of scarring and aged skin. The procedure is done by using a wire brush or a diamond wheel with rough edges to remove the upper layers of the skin. The brush or burr spins quickly, taking off and levelling the top layers of the skin. 

Microdermabrasion:
Microdermabrasion involves the use of microcrystals to remove the outermost layer of skin to make way for younger, healthier-looking skin. The procedure best treats skin issues such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damaged skin, scars, acne, etc. 
Dr Mohan Thomas, senior cosmetic surgeon, Cosmetic Surgery Institute, Bandra and Breach Candy Hospital has to say, “Although all of the above procedures have their advantages, laser light treatment is widely practiced by skin experts and dermatologists for treating both surface and deeper skin problems given its high success rate and quick results. Post procedure care is extremely important to achieve best results.”
