Skin Rejuvenation

It is worth it when the goal is specific: brighter skin, smoother texture, fewer fine lines or better hydration. It is rarely worth it as a vague glow package with no diagnosis behind it. The honest answer depends on what is bothering you, which is what the consultation is for.

A Hydrafacial glow lasts about a week, skin boosters several months, and collagen-building treatments such as Sculptra, microneedling or fractional laser a year or more. Daily sunscreen decides how long any result holds.

Most treatments feel like warmth, tingling or light pressure. Numbing cream is used before injectables, microneedling and laser, so most people describe it as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful.

They do different jobs. Hyaluronic acid fillers give instant, precise volume in one area, such as the lips or under the eyes, and can be dissolved if needed. Sculptra restores firmness across the face gradually and cannot be dissolved. Many plans use both.

In trained hands it has a long safety record. Expect swelling, tenderness or bruising for a few days. Small lumps under the skin are the main risk, which is why correct mixing, placement and the massage routine afterwards matter. Local anaesthetic keeps the injections comfortable.

Most people have two or three sessions about a month apart, and the result often lasts around two years, because it is your own collagen doing the work rather than a product sitting in the skin.

Yes. At Theory of Skin, Indiranagar, whether Sculptra suits you is decided at an aesthetic consultation, alongside fillers and skin boosters, based on where volume has been lost and what result you want.

Usually two or three sessions about a month apart, then a top-up roughly every six months.

No treatment closes pores permanently, because pore size is partly genetic. What works is making them look smaller by reducing oil and firming the skin around them, with chemical peels, a carbon peel, microneedling or laser, plus a retinoid at home. See how a chemical peel series works.
