Expert Dermatology Insights Featured in Leading Media
I am often asked to share my perspectives on skin health with publications like The Times of India and India Today. Here is a collection of my interviews where I break down common myths and share science-backed skincare advice.
I was pleased to share my expertise with the Times of India on how to transition your skincare routine for winter without getting dry skin.
In my conversation with the Times of India, I emphasized that the first step for winter skincare is switching to a moisturizing cleanser to prevent moisture loss.
I also advised readers of the Times of India to change their gel moisturizer to a heavier cream formulation during winter to combat dryness and protect the skin barrier.
A common mistake is skipping SPF in winter. I explained to the Times of India that UV rays are damaging year-round, making sunscreen a non-negotiable shield for your skin.
For extra hydration in winter, I suggested incorporating a facial oil under your night cream, a tip I shared in my Times of India feature.
The delicate skin on our lips and under our eyes needs extra care in cold weather. I recommended using a dedicated lip moisturizer and a hydrating eye cream in my discussion with the Times of India.
I spoke with India Today to provide tips on fading post-acne marks, a topic that requires a clear understanding of different treatment modalities.
In the India Today article, I explained that treating stubborn acne scars requires multiple sessions of advanced treatments like lasers and microneedling over several months, and it is important to have realistic expectations about the results.
I was featured in The Financial Express, where I discussed the benefits of including Vitamin C in your skincare routine and how to use it correctly.
In my interview with The Financial Express, I explained that Vitamin C provides hydration, reduces pigmentation, and promotes collagen production for firmer skin.
About As Seen In
While these media features address broad topics—from winter skincare transitions to managing post-acne marks—they serve as a starting point. True skin health isn't found in a magazine article; it is built on a diagnosis tailored to your skin's unique needs, not general advice.
Navigating the noise of skincare advice can feel overwhelming. I collaborate with outlets like The Times of India, India Today, and The Financial Express to cut through trends and provide evidence-based information. Whether I am explaining the chemistry of Vitamin C, the reality of skin pilling, or how to manage post-acne pigmentation, my focus remains constant: demystifying the science so you can make informed decisions.
While media interviews allow me to address common questions, they cannot replace a personalized assessment. Every piece of advice I share in print is grounded in the same clinical philosophy I use at my Indiranagar and Whitefield clinics. I look at the underlying causes of skin concerns—be it hormonal, environmental, or lifestyle-driven—rather than just treating the surface symptoms.
If you have read one of my features and are wondering how that advice applies to your specific skin type, the best step is a formal consultation. We can move beyond general tips to create a routine or treatment plan that is safe, effective, and uniquely yours.
