Aesthetic dermatology focuses on improving the appearance of skin, addressing concerns related to aesthetics rather than medical conditions. It involves non-invasive or minimally invasive treatments that enhance skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
At the aesthetic dermatology clinic of Liaquat National Hospital, we specialize in a wide range of skin conditions and aesthetic concerns. Our clinic stands out due to our comprehensive approach to skin and hair care procedures. Our outpatient clinics are well-equipped to diagnose and treat all skin conditions, providing comprehensive care that includes counseling, follow-ups, and patient education on skin conditions.

Lightening hyperpigmentation involves treatments such as topical creams containing hydroquinone, retinoids, vitamin C, or kojic acid. Procedures like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser treatments can also help fade pigmented areas.

There is no strict age limit, but it's important to consult a dermatologist to determine if these procedures suit your skin condition and overall health. Generally, PRP and microneedling can be considered for adults who are experiencing issues such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, or uneven skin texture.
Some common triggers for epilepsy are:
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Keep treated areas out of direct sunlight for at least 24 hours to prevent irritation and damage.
- Skip Makeup: Avoid doing makeup for 24-48 hours to allow your skin to heal and avoid clogging pores.
- Gentle Skincare: Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. Avoid products with harsh chemicals, acids, or retinoids for several days.
- No Touching: Avoid touching, picking, or scratching the treated area to prevent infection and irritation.
- Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help your skin stay hydrated and promote healing.
PRP can help reduce hair fall by stimulating hair follicles and promoting new hair growth. However, results may vary and not completely stop hair fall for everyone. It is used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for hair loss.
It is advised to avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after microneedling and PRP treatments. This allows the skin to heal and reduces the risk of irritation or infection.
Microneedling can cause hyperpigmentation, especially in people prone to pigmentation issues. Following post-treatment care instructions and using proper sun protection is important to minimize this risk. Getting the procedure done from the experienced aesthetic dermatologist can help assess your risk and determine the best course of action.
Homemade remedies can be helpful for some minor skin conditions and maintenance. Ingredients like honey, aloe vera, and oatmeal are soothing and can temporarily relieve dryness, inflammation, and mild irritation. However, they are less effective than medical treatments. Always seek advice from a dermatologist before trying any homemade remedy, especially for significant skin conditions.
Permanent results for melasma are challenging to achieve as it is a chronic condition. However, your aesthetic dermatologist can advise you regarding the most appropriate treatment according to your skin type and condition. Some treatments can offer long-term improvement:

- Microdermabrasion: This can help exfoliate the skin and reduce pigmentation.
- Topical Treatments: Prescription creams can be effective with long-term use. Regular maintenance and sun protection are important to prevent it.
Aesthetic dermatology procedures often provide noticeable improvements in skin appearance. In contrast, traditional dermatology treatments focus more on medical skin conditions and may require longer treatment periods and more recovery time.
