Common Dermatology And Aesthetic Questions — Answered By SkinDot Clinics Islamabad



At SkinDot Clinics Islamabad, patients often come after months or years of trying treatments that did not work. Below are clear, evidence-based answers to the most common questions we receive daily at our PWD and Khanna Pull branches.

Why Does Acne Keep Coming Back Even After Using Medicines?

Persistent acne usually means the root cause was never fully addressed. Hormonal imbalance, wrong antibiotic duration, overuse of steroid creams, unsuitable skincare products, or poor compliance are common reasons. Acne requires a customized plan, not random prescriptions.

Is Melasma Curable Or Only Manageable?

Melasma is a chronic condition. It can be controlled and significantly lightened, but it requires strict sun protection, correct topical therapy, and carefully selected procedures like chemical peels or Pico Laser. Aggressive or wrong lasers often worsen pigmentation.

Which Laser Is Safest For Darker Skin Tones?

For South Asian skin, Pico Laser, Soprano Diode Laser, and controlled fractional treatments are safer when used by trained dermatologists. Skin type assessment matters more than the machine name.

Hydrafacial Or Chemical Peel — Which Is Better?

Hydrafacial improves hydration and glow. Chemical peels treat acne, pigmentation, and texture. They are not substitutes; they serve different goals. Treatment choice depends on your skin concern, not trends.

Does PRP Actually Help Hair Loss?

PRP improves hair thickness and reduces shedding when combined with proper diagnosis and medical treatment. It does not regrow dead follicles and is not effective alone in advanced baldness.

How Many Sessions Are Needed For Acne Scars?

Acne scars improve gradually. Most patients need 3–6 sessions using combinations of Microneedling Radiofrequency, CO2 Laser, or Pico Laser. Complete scar removal is unrealistic; visible improvement is realistic.

Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?

Laser hair removal reduces hair growth significantly and long term. Maintenance sessions may be needed due to hormonal changes. Soprano Diode Laser offers effective results with minimal discomfort.

Are Fillers And Botox Safe?

They are safe only when performed by qualified medical professionals using authentic products. Incorrect technique and cheap products are the main causes of complications.

Why Do Treatments Fail When Done Elsewhere?

Most failures occur due to wrong diagnosis, under-treatment, over-treatment, poor follow-up, or non-medical providers performing medical procedures.

When Should I See A Dermatologist Urgently?

Sudden rashes, fast-spreading hair loss, painful skin lesions, severe itching, drug reactions, or infections should be evaluated immediately.

At SkinDot Clinics Islamabad, every treatment plan is built on diagnosis, evidence, and safety — not trends or shortcuts. Our goal is long-term skin and hair health, not temporary fixes.

Love Your Skin

Image
Your skin is not just a surface. It is your first impression, your daily armor, and your long-term investment. At SkinDot Clinics, we believe loving your skin is a strategy, not a slogan. In our climate, skin faces a triple threat: pollution, harsh weather swings, and stress. The result is dryness, acne, pigmentation, early aging, and sensitivity that refuses to behave. The fix is not chasing trends. The fix is alignment—right diagnosis, right routine, right timing. Loving your skin starts with understanding it. Oily, dry, sensitive, acne-prone, aging—each skin type has its own rulebook. When you follow someone else’s routine, you borrow their problems too. At SkinDot Clinics, every treatment plan is customized, evidence-based, and designed for long-term results, not short-term hype. Consistency beats miracles. Gentle cleansing, targeted treatment, sun protection, and professional guidance create compounding returns over time. Think of skincare like a smart portfolio: low risk, high di...
