Skin & Related Diseases

“Skin health reflects overall dosha balance”

Dr. Aishwarya’s Ayurvedic treatment for skin and related diseases emphasizes restoring balance in the body to address both symptoms and underlying causes. She understands that skin issues often reflect internal imbalances, such as toxins, poor digestion, or dosha imbalances (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) and believes in treating the root of the problem for sustainable results.

Her approach begins with an in-depth consultation and pulse diagnosis to determine the specific imbalances affecting the skin. She may prescribe personalized herbal formulations that work from the inside out to cleanse and nourish the skin. Common herbs she uses include neem for its antibacterial properties, turmeric for its anti-inflammatory effects, and aloe vera for its soothing qualities.

Dr. Aishwarya also emphasizes the importance of a dosha-appropriate diet to clear toxins and improve digestion, which is crucial for clear skin. She tailors dietary recommendations to each patient, often suggesting foods that are cooling, hydrating, and rich in antioxidants to support skin health. Additionally, she incorporates external treatments like herbal pastes, oils, and medicated steam to cleanse and rejuvenate the skin, targeting specific issues like acne, eczema, or psoriasis..

Lifestyle modifications are another essential aspect of her treatment. She may advise on practices such as regular detoxification, stress management, and incorporating yoga or meditation to improve circulation and reduce stress-induced skin issues. Through this comprehensive, personalized approach, Dr. Aishwarya helps her patients achieve healthier, glowing skin naturally.

Personalized Treatment Plan

01. Detailed Assessment and Pulse Diagnosis (Nadi Parikshan):

  • Dosha Analysis: Identify the dominant and imbalanced doshas (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) through pulse diagnosis and observation. For example, Pitta imbalance often leads to inflammation-based skin issues like acne, while Vata imbalance may cause dryness and eczema.
  • Lifestyle and Diet Evaluation: Analyze the patient’s daily routines, diet, stress levels, and skin care habits to understand external factors impacting skin health.

02. Personalized Herbal Formulations:

  • Internal Herbs: Based on dosha imbalances, recommend herbs like neem for Pitta-related skin inflammation, manjistha for blood purification, and amla for antioxidant support. Tailored dosages and combinations ensure the herbs address the patient’s unique needs.
  • Topical Remedies: Create custom blends of Ayurvedic oils and pastes with ingredients like sandalwood, turmeric, and aloe vera for external application, addressing specific conditions such as acne, eczema, or pigmentation.

03. Customized Diet and Lifestyle Modifications:

  • Dietary Guidance: Develop a diet plan that balances the patient's doshas and supports skin health. For instance, for a Pitta-type patient with acne, recommend cooling foods, while a Vata-type patient with dry skin may benefit from moisturizing and warming foods.
  • Lifestyle Adjustments: Suggest routines like regular detox practices, oil massage (Abhyanga) for hydration, and daily meditation to manage stress levels, which play a significant role in skin health.

Monitoring & Support

Regular follow-ups are key to evaluate the skin's response and make adjustments to the treatment, ensuring the regimen evolves with the patient's progress and any new symptoms.
