How and when did you start Kanyaa Skin Clinic? What do you specialise in?
I worked as a senior resident and assistant professor in various medical colleges and have 11 years of experience as a consultant dermatologist.

We specialise in advanced anti-ageing treatments and laser hair removals, chemical peels, PRP, GFC, clinical dermatology, hair growth and skin colour improvement.
One of the most popular and advanced treatments you offer is the Botox. Can you explain the skin Botox procedure and how it differs from traditional Botox injections for wrinkles?
As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and moisture. Botox helps in regaining this lost moisture. It is a shot given to reduce wrinkles and give youthful and glowing skin. Botox is a toxin that is injected directly into the skin, thereby helping achieve wrinkle-free and youthful skin.What areas of the face and can be treated with body Botox, and what specific concerns does it address?
Botox can be given on the forehead to correct glabellar lines, crow's feet, under eyes, cheeks, neck, underarm, palms and soles to control excessive sweating. It specifically concentrates on muscle actions and helps in reducing the fine lines on the face.
What is the typical downtime associated with skin Botox treatments, and are there any immediate side effects patients should expect?
There is no downtime with this treatment. It is a lunch time procedure. The patient can return to normal routine immediately after the treatment. There are no side effects either.
Could you walk us through the pre-treatment preparations that patients should follow before undergoing skin Botox? There is no specific pre-treatment required to be followed, but always use sunscreen. It helps in achieving young skin that we all desire. Apart from that, stay hydrated, avoid junk food, have abundant antioxidants, and always remove makeup before going to bed in order to maintain good skin.
What post-treatment care regimen do you recommend to optimise results and minimise any potential side effects?
Apply sunscreen regularly and avoid heavy exercise on the day of the treatment. You can go back to your daily routine of exercising the next day. There is no contraindication for Botox except pregnancy and lactation. People above the age of 20, with all skin types, can get it done.
How soon after the treatment can patients expect to see results, and how long do these results typically last?
Patients can expect results in one-two weeks. The results last for about five to six months but it completely depends on the individual skin type and post shot regime that the patient follows.
Are there any complementary treatments or skincare products that can enhance the results of skin Botox treatments?
Apart from Botox, a new and emerging treatment that has taken everyone by storm in the field of cosmetology is the Growth Factor Concentrate, In this treatment, the patient is given a shot of their own blood after centrifuge. It has similar results as Botox and is a much safer procedure. The recent advances in Exosomes has made it the future of cosmetology.
Always visit a dermatologist for your cosmetology procedures as they are trained for many years and know the in and out of the entire body and all the potential side effects of machines and treatments.
