Leading Cosmetologist Dr Anju Methil Shares Her Insights On Pigmentation Management


(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Dr. Anju Methil, a renowned dermatologist and cosmetologist in Mumbai, was honoured to be a panel member in the discussion on pigmentation management using real cases at the Aesthetic medicine conference held on 18th - 19th May 2024 at NESCO Mumbai.

Dr. Anju Methil is a leading dermatologist in Mumbai , with over 28 years of experience in hair and skin care. She co-founded Skin and Shape clinic in Mumbai, offering many image-enhancing treatments such as Facial rejuvenation, Botox and fillers, Pigmentation treatment, Body sculpting, Hair transplantation, Breast reshaping, and more.

She states, 'At the Aesthetic Medicine Conference 2024, the pigmentation management discussion was highlighted by the active participation of acclaimed dermatologists who shared their pigmentation patient cases with treatment protocols, results, and management. This exchange of medical know-how on pigmentation management and its advancements was enlightening.

Pigmentation refers to the skin colour determined by melanin produced by melanocyte cells present in the skin. People can have pale skin if their melanocyte cells produce very little melanin. In the case of people with dark skin, it refers to more melanin production by the melanocyte cells in the body.

Apart from normal pigmentation or skin tone, people can complain of hypopigmentation, hyperpigmentation, or depigmentation. Hyperpigmented skin implies too much melanin, while hypopigmented skin has very little melanin. Depigmented skin has no melanin.

Dr. Anju Methil states, 'Dermatologists recommend oral medication, topical medications, herbal remedies and specially formulation cosmetic products and treatment to treat skin pigmentation issues. I advise such patients to consult a dermatologist before beginning a treatment plan. I offer evidence-based pigmentation management plans, which have been very successful."

She elaborates on the availability of a wide range of oral and topical medications to treat and manage pigmentation, which should be done under medical supervision. Oral medication is a convenient way to treat pigmentation issues and is cheaper than oral drugs. Topical creams, serums, and lotions are equally effective but have pros and cons.

Alongside newer procedures such as laser therapy, microneedling, plasma pen therapy, radiofrequency, and combination treatments. Improvements in laser therapy promise accuracy and precision with speedy healing and better outcomes. The microneedling procedure encourages the natural synthesis of collagen with elastin to reduce hyperpigmentation. Also evolving are combination treatments that include acids to prevent dark spots from appearing, which are increasingly gaining preference.

Plasma pen therapy is one of the newer therapies used to treat skin pigmentation, and its outcomes are promising. Dr Anju Methil explains, 'We use targeted plasma energy beam to treat areas diagnosed with skin pigmentation. It effectively treats sunspots, age spots, freckles, and melasma. Moreover, it is less intrusive and has fewer adverse effects.

Dr. Anju Methil states, 'I was fortunate to be a panel member in the discussion on pigmentation management at the recently held Aesthetic Medicine conference. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet and interact with highly experienced dermatologists and exchange the latest trends in pigmentation management and other skin conditions.
