It’s the season to be jolly!

The festive season is now in full swing in the subcontinent. Several major celebrations and weddings of our many religions / communities have commenced.

At such a time, every individual wants their skin to look its best. Here are some skin hacks that work- shared by Dr Sonam to help you get that healthy clear glow:

1. Eat, sleep, hydrate: The basics cannot be forgotten even in the midst of a busy party season. Compensate for the indulgences of the previous night when you can: Drink plain water and black / green teas. Eat simpler foods like khichdi and boiled rice with dal to soothe the tummy. Include fermented products (curd, yogurt, buttermilk and kefir) in your diet for better gut health. Also, pop a supplement of high dose vitamins: C, B Complex, zinc; one daily.

2. Antioxidants: These are ingredients which fight free radical damage that arises from partying, lack of sleep, stress, smoking, pollution and drinking - include green tea, vitamin C, astaxanthin & glutathione, in your skin care as well as your oral supplement routine for an immediate glow.

   Ask your doctor to prescribe the best combination for your needs.

3. Medical Facials: This is the best time of the year to get pore tightening MesoBotox Facials - which give your skin a smooth finished glow. Enzyme peels and professional exfoliation can quickly help clear acne & spots. SkinBoosters & Growth Factor injections can instantly rejuvenate the face and neck for a clear complexion. Talk to us about our new Mini Facials too for a quickie treat on a budget.

4. Cellulite Busters - Ask your doctor for a prescription strength cellulite fighting gel - also use a drop of this with massage under the chin before make up for a tighter & sculpted jawline. Quickie tightening treatments on the day of the event / few days prior make you look toned and sculpted.

5. Depuff - Rub an ice cube / cold compress over your face and neck before heading out. Try to get enough sleep / naps, and use an extra pillow under the head. I

6. If you overdo coffee or energy drinks, the face looks bloated. Follow every alcoholic drink with 1 glass of water as a chaser.

7. Laser hair reduction can be done even on the day of an event - avoid bleach or wax at the last minute, these inevitably cause rash or breakouts.

Have a good time!
