Introduction
Dermatological conditions such as acne, pigmentation, hair loss, and sensitive skin are medical concerns influenced by genetics, environment, internal health, and long-term lifestyle factors. In cities like Kota, where heat, dust exposure, strong sunlight, and seasonal humidity are common, skin and hair concerns are frequently observed across all age groups.
Many individuals initially rely on over-the-counter products or non-medical advice. However, when symptoms persist, recur, or begin to affect daily life, professional evaluation becomes important. Consulting a qualified dermatologist ensures accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatment rather than trial-and-error approaches.
Skinssence Laser & Skincare Clinic is a dermatologist-led clinic located in Talwandi, Kota, Rajasthan. Care is provided under the supervision of Dr. Ashima Madan (MBBS, MD, Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine), with an emphasis on medical evaluation, patient education, and ethical treatment planning.
About the Dermatologist
Dr. Ashima Madan
MBBS, MD
Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine
Dr. Ashima Madan is a formally trained dermatologist with postgraduate specialization in dermatology and additional fellowship training in aesthetic medicine. Her clinical practice includes the diagnosis and management of medical skin and hair disorders, as well as dermatology-guided aesthetic procedures.
Clinical Approach
- Accurate clinical diagnosis before initiating treatment
- Clear explanation of the condition, available options, and realistic expectations
- Preference for evidence-based dermatological protocols
- Strong focus on safety, especially for lasers, peels, and injectables
Medical dermatology forms the foundation of care. Aesthetic treatments are considered only when clinically appropriate and always under medical supervision.
Common Skin & Hair Concerns Treated
Acne and Acne Scars
Acne is one of the most common reasons patients seek dermatological care in Kota. While mild acne may respond to basic treatment, persistent acne, painful lesions, or scarring require professional evaluation.
Many patients present after repeated use of over-the-counter products without improvement. Dermatological assessment helps identify acne type, prevent long-term scarring, and determine when procedural treatments such as chemical peels or laser-based therapies may be appropriate.
Pigmentation Disorders
Pigmentation may develop due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, or genetic factors. Conditions such as melasma and post-inflammatory pigmentation often worsen without guided care.
A dermatologist evaluates underlying triggers and plans treatment strategies that focus not only on improvement but also on long-term maintenance and recurrence prevention.
Hair Loss Conditions
Hair fall can be associated with nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalance, stress, or medical conditions. Not all hair loss indicates permanent baldness, and not all cases require procedural intervention.
Dermatological evaluation includes scalp examination, identification of hair loss type, and determination of whether medical management, lifestyle correction, or procedures such as PRP are indicated.
Laser-Based Treatments
Lasers are used in dermatology for hair reduction, pigmentation, and tattoo removal. Medical supervision is essential to select appropriate technology, customise settings for individual skin types, and minimise risks such as burns or post-treatment pigmentation.
Medical Facials and Skin Rejuvenation
Medical facials differ from salon procedures in that they are designed based on skin condition and clinical findings. These treatments may be considered for texture irregularities, dullness, or early signs of ageing after proper assessment.
Why Medical Supervision Matters in Aesthetic Treatments
Aesthetic dermatology is safest and most effective when integrated with medical knowledge. Not every cosmetic concern requires a procedure, and in many cases, medical management and preventive care are sufficient.
- Diagnosis first: Some cosmetic concerns may indicate underlying skin disease
- Safety: Treatments are customised based on skin type and medical history
- Individualised care: Plans vary with age, lifestyle, and climate exposure
- Management of complications: Early recognition and appropriate treatment if reactions occur
This approach prioritises long-term skin health rather than short-term cosmetic outcomes.
