s p e c i a l a d v e r t i s i n g s e c t i o n DOCTORS & HOSPITALS October 2022 Neem Medical Spa Age does not have an appearance. It's not that we walk around with a badge announcing that we're in our 40's or 50's. Says Dr. Rosy Sandhu, founding director of Neem Medical Spa, "I genuinely believe that staying youthful is an earned privilege. It requires some work from us including healthy self-love, commitment, and dedication to an e•ective skincare routine." In addition, collagen stimulating treatments in an o€ce setting, less exposure to the sun, keeping fit in body, mind, and spirit, and eating healthy all contribute to the successful maintenance of healthy skin. Dr. Sandhu practices on the North Shore, and she helped us understand her philosophy on skincare recently. How do I get beautiful skin naturally overnight? Getting a good night's sleep, adequate water intake, and using a Vitamin C serum followed by a growth factor and retinol can lead to glowing, healthy, and lustrous skin over time. What cosmetic laser treatment is best for my skin? To decide what cosmetic lasers would work best for you, it would be especially important to get an in-o€ce consultation with an expert physician. In general, lasers work best for lighter skin types one through three and maybe even four for skin rejuvenation. Ultrasound- based and radiofrequency treatments would work well for all skin types, depending on the goals. I am a big believer of combining treatments to create a comprehensive treatment plan that would make a significant impact. What are some healthy ways to treat my wrinkles and fine lines? I would recommend a combination of lifestyle changes including less sun exposure and smoking, more water intake, and a good sleep pattern. In addition, using a retinol at night and sunscreen during the daytime along with growth factors and plant stem cells in your skincare regimen are a few things you could do at home. In-o€ce treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, and microneedling would take your skin to another level, as recommended by your physician. Why is prevention the most important part of your skin-care regimen in your 40s? As with everything in medicine, prevention is much better than cure. Most noninvasive skincare treatments work best when started early, so that we are still able to boost up the collagen and elastin levels in the skin before skin laxity and loss of turgor get to the point of requiring any surgical modalities. So, I would recommend using NEEM MEDICAL SPA 693 Market St, Lynnfield, MA neemmedicalspa.com • 617-415-9836 medical grade skincare and collagen building o€ce procedures as preventive anti-aging tools on a regular basis, to whichever degree you can adopt in your lifestyle. Is there anything else you'd like to share? I would focus on a comprehensive plan to staying youthful no matter what your age. This would include a healthy lifestyle, mindfulness, good quality sleep, active skin care ingredients like Vitamin C, retinol, and growth factors, and seeing a cosmetic physician at least twice a year for a customized anti-aging plan. And in the end, practice self-love and love the skin you are in!
