3 skin issues due to summer heat

The temperature is rising, which means, we’re showing a lot more skin.We all love summer. It’s time to soak up the sun, stay outdoors, and spend time on the beach. What we don’t love, though, are the skin problems that arise due to warm weather and spending time outdoors. In this blog, I would like to cover three main skin issues my patients most commonly face during the summer season. Sun burns PMLE Miliaria SUN BURN: If you stay in the sun for too long without any protection, you may get sunburn. Sunburn is the skin’s response to extreme ultraviolet (UV) exposure and indicates severe damage. The body protects itself from this harmful radiation by accelerating the production of melanin, the dark pigment that gives skin its normal color. Unfortunately, melanin can only protect the body from a certain amount of UV light. Eventually, if someone is continually exposed to it, UV radiation will cause their skin to burn in as little as 10 minutes of exposure! Typical sunburn

Breast Implantation by Dr Chytra V Anand in Bangalore and Chennai

A lot of us are not happy with the breast size that we have. With the celebrity culture at its peak and influencing our lives at unspeakable magnitudes, it is but natural for us to think of achieving the celebrity like bodily structures. Breast augmentation as a fad has still not caught up as much in India as it has in the European and American nations but to say that the trend towards breast augmentation is growing at a fast pace would not be an exaggeration. Breast augmentation or breast implants or augmentation mammoplasty is the procedure which involves grafting of fat or silicone implants to increase the breast size. Mostly an aesthetic procedure, breast augmentation is also commonly used for breast reconstruction after mastectomy. There are hardly any risks involved but the few that are, are listed below and are totally not procedure based: ●    Anesthesia risks ●    Bleeding / Hematoma ●    Infection ●    Changes in nipple or breast sensation ●    Poor scar

Why Eyelid Surgery is Important?

Eyelid surgery is a common procedure performed for drooping upper eyelids. While the surgery is often performed to restore the more youthful appearance, there are many situations in which eyelid surgery is medically necessary to improve vision or function. The condition of drooping upper eyelids can occur as a result of several different diagnoses, which may be treated differently. The most common diagnoses are dermatochalasis (excess eyelid skin), and blepharoptosis .  Blepharoplasty is a surgery to remove excess skin from the upper or lower eyelids. This is different from blepharoptosis surgery, which usually involves tightening of the muscles that elevate the eyelid. When is Eyelid Surgery Medically Necessary?
