FAQs

Dermatology questions, answered clearly

Educational answers for common skin, hair, and treatment concerns. A consultation is still important for diagnosis and a personalized plan.

Acne

Can acne scars be treated? +

Yes. Acne scars can often be improved with a combination of procedures such as microneedling, fractional lasers, subcision, peels, or injectables. The right plan depends on scar type, skin tone, and downtime preferences.

How long does acne treatment take? +

Most acne plans need 8 to 12 weeks to show consistent improvement. Severe or hormonal acne may need longer-term maintenance so breakouts stay controlled.

Pigmentation

Is melasma curable? +

Melasma is manageable, but it can recur with sun exposure, heat, hormones, and irritation. Treatment usually combines sunscreen, topical medicines, careful procedures, and maintenance.

Hair & Scalp

When should I see a dermatologist for hair fall? +

Book a consultation if hair fall lasts longer than six weeks, occurs in patches, follows illness or medication changes, or is associated with itching, scaling, pain, or thinning at the parting.
