हाँ, आप Beauty Glazed Vitamin C 10% serum इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं — लेकिन कुछ सावधानियों के साथ, क्योंकि आपके चेहरे पर अभी pimples (active acne) हैं।

मैं आपको साफ-साफ और सुरक्षित तरीके से समझा देता हूँ 👇

⭐ आपके लिए Safe तरीका (Best Method)

✔ Step 1: Patch Test करें

Serum को

कान के पीछे या

jawline पर एक छोटी जगह लगाएँ और 24 घंटे इंतज़ार करें। अगर लालपन या खुजली नहीं होती → Safe है।


✔ Step 2: Slowly शुरू करें (बहुत ज़रूरी)

पहले 1 हफ्ता → हफ्ते में 3 दिन रात में लगाएँ। अगर irritation ना हो → अगले हफ्ते हर रात लगा सकते हैं।


✔ Step 3: कैसे लगाएँ?

1. Face धो लें

2. Skin बिल्कुल dry होनी चाहिए (पानी पर Vitamin C जलन कराता है)

3. 2–3 drops serum पूरे face पर

4. After 2–3 minutes → Light moisturizer

5. सुबह सूरज की धूप में SPF 30–50 sunscreen ज़रूर लगाएँ

First treat the pimples, then for dark spots later use beauty glazed Vitamin C serum. With sensitive skin it can give rashes, so you will have to do patch test later use it on face.

Hello Sure,​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ you can use Beauty Glazed Vitamin C 10% serum, but just a little and according to the condition of the skin.

In the case of pimples + dark spots, Vitamin C is quite helpful, but some precautions are definitely needed.

✅ Does Vitamin C 10% help with pimples and dark spots? Yes. –It lightens the dark spots –Brightens skin tone –Acne marks (PIH) fade quickly –Skin is healed

But if you have a lot of active pimples, then you have to settle them first.

✅ When should you not use Vitamin C serum? If: –Pimples are red, painful, and active –Your skin is very sensitive or feels like it is burning –You are heavily exposed to the sun and do not wear sunscreen

Then Vitamin C can irritate your skin.

✅ What to do if pimples are moderate?

Step-by-step routine Morning: 1. Gentle face wash 2. 2–3 drops of Vitamin C serum 3. Light moisturizer 4. Sunscreen must (SPF 30–50)

Night: Simple face wash + moisturizer (Initially, use serum only in the morning and then gradually apply at night also )

✅ When will there be result? Marks of pimples: 3–6 weeks Dark spots: 6–10 weeks (depending on skin)

✅ Better Results Tip

At night you can use the following things along with Vitamin C: Niacinamide 5–10% (which helps oil control + spots fading) or Aloe vera gel (pure) – soothing effect

I hope I was able to answer all your questions

Warm Regards Dr Snehal ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌Vidhate

HELLO,

Yes, you can use it, but with some precautions because you have oily skin + pimples for more than 6 months

BENEFITS FOR YOUR SKIN -lightens dark spots and acne scars -brightens and evens skin tone -reduces dullness -supports collagen for healthy skin

POSSIBLE ISSUES -If you have active, red, painful pimples, Vitamin C may sting -Oily skin sometimes experiences purging (temporary breakouts) -Using it incorrectly can increase irritation

But overall 10% Vitamin C is safe for oily and acne-prone skin

HOW TO USE VITAMIN C SAFELY FOR OILY + ACNE - PRONE SKIN

MORNING ROUTINE (best time to use vitamin C)

1) Salicylic Acid face wash -> helps unclog pores and reduces acne

2) Vitamin C 10% serum -> apply 3-4 drops on complete dry skin -> wait 2 min before next step

3) Gel based Moisturiser = aloe vera gel, oil-free gel creams

4) SPF 50 sunscreen (VERY IMPORTANT) ->Without sunscreen, Vitamin c can worsen pigmentation

NIGHT ROUTINE If you have ongoing pimples:-

1) Gentle face wash 2) Niacinamide serum (2-5%) = reduces acne, controls oil, lightens dark spots 3) Gel moisturizer= Don’t use Vitamin c at night if your skin is sensitive . Morning use is enough

RULES YOU MUST FOLLOW -Never apply Vitamin c on wet skin-> causes irritation -If burning happens-> use only every alternate day -Do not mix Vitamin C with= retinol, strong exfoliants, scrubs

AYURVEDIC AND NATURAL REMEDIES

1) ALOE VERA + TURMERIC (for dark spots) -1 tsp aloe vera gel -a pinch of turmeric -apply on dark spots for 10-15 min daily =reduces marks and calms acne

2) NEEM WATER TONER. (for pimples) -Boil neem leaves In water -cool and store in a bottle -use with cotton on face =reduces bacteria, acne , and excess oil

3) MULTANI MITTI (1-2 times a week) -mix with rose water =controls oil, tightens pores, prevents pimples

4) SANDALWOOD PASTE -apply for 15 min =powerful for pigmentation, dark spots, cooling the skin

DO FOLLOW

THANK YOU

हेलो,

हाँ, आप इसे इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं, लेकिन कुछ सावधानियों के साथ क्योंकि आपकी स्किन ऑयली है + 6 महीने से ज़्यादा समय से पिंपल्स हैं

आपकी स्किन के लिए फ़ायदे - डार्क स्पॉट्स और एक्ने के निशान हल्के करता है - स्किन टोन को ब्राइट और एक जैसा करता है - डलनेस कम करता है - हेल्दी स्किन के लिए कोलेजन को सपोर्ट करता है

हो सकती हैं दिक्कतें - अगर आपको एक्टिव, लाल, दर्दनाक पिंपल्स हैं, तो विटामिन C चुभ सकता है - ऑयली स्किन पर कभी-कभी प्यूरिंग (कुछ समय के लिए ब्रेकआउट) होता है - इसे गलत तरीके से इस्तेमाल करने से जलन बढ़ सकती है

लेकिन कुल मिलाकर 10% विटामिन C ऑयली और एक्ने वाली स्किन के लिए सेफ़ है

ऑयली + एक्ने वाली - प्रोन स्किन के लिए विटामिन C का सेफ़ तरीके से इस्तेमाल कैसे करें

मॉर्निंग रूटीन (विटामिन C इस्तेमाल करने का सबसे अच्छा समय)

1) सैलिसिलिक एसिड फ़ेस वॉश -> पोर्स को खोलने और एक्ने कम करने में मदद करता है

2) विटामिन C 10% सीरम -> पूरी स्किन पर 3-4 बूँदें लगाएँ ड्राई स्किन -> अगले स्टेप से पहले 2 मिनट इंतज़ार करें

3) जेल बेस्ड मॉइस्चराइज़र = एलोवेरा जेल, ऑयल-फ्री जेल क्रीम

4) SPF 50 सनस्क्रीन (बहुत ज़रूरी) -> सनस्क्रीन के बिना, विटामिन c पिगमेंटेशन को और खराब कर सकता है

नाइट रूटीन अगर आपको लगातार पिंपल्स होते हैं:-

1) जेंटल फेस वॉश 2) नियासिनमाइड सीरम (2-5%) = मुंहासे कम करता है, ऑयल कंट्रोल करता है, डार्क स्पॉट्स को हल्का करता है 3) जेल मॉइस्चराइज़र= अगर आपकी स्किन सेंसिटिव है तो रात में विटामिन c का इस्तेमाल न करें। सुबह इस्तेमाल करना काफ़ी है

नियम जो आपको ज़रूर मानने चाहिए - गीली स्किन पर कभी भी विटामिन c न लगाएं-> जलन होती है - अगर जलन हो-> तो हर दूसरे दिन इस्तेमाल करें - विटामिन C को रेटिनॉल, स्ट्रॉन्ग एक्सफोलिएंट्स, स्क्रब के साथ न मिलाएं

आयुर्वेदिक और नेचुरल उपाय

1) एलोवेरा + हल्दी (डार्क स्पॉट्स के लिए) -1 tsp एलोवेरा जेल -एक चुटकी हल्दी -डार्क स्पॉट्स पर रोज़ाना 10-15 मिनट के लिए लगाएं = निशान कम करता है और मुंहासों को शांत करता है

2) नीम वॉटर टोनर। (पिंपल्स के लिए) -नीम के पत्तों को पानी में उबालें -ठंडा करके बोतल में भर लें -कॉटन की मदद से चेहरे पर लगाएं =बैक्टीरिया, मुंहासे और एक्स्ट्रा ऑयल कम करता है

3) मुल्तानी मिट्टी (हफ्ते में 1-2 बार) -गुलाब जल में मिलाएं =ऑयल कंट्रोल करता है, पोर्स को टाइट करता है, पिंपल्स को रोकता है

4) चंदन का पेस्ट -15 मिनट तक लगाएं =पिगमेंटेशन, डार्क स्पॉट्स, स्किन को ठंडक देने के लिए असरदार

फॉलो करें

धन्यवाद

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

Haan, aap Beauty Glazed Vitamin C 10% serum use kar sakte hain agar aapka goal dark spots ko kam karna hai — lekin oily aur acne-prone skin ke liye thoda dhyan rakhna zaroori hai.

🌟 Beauty Glazed Vitamin C Serum: Safe for You? - Ye serum 10% Vitamin C ke saath 2% Salicylic Acid bhi rakhta hai, jo oily skin aur pimples ke liye beneficial ho sakta hai. - Vitamin C helps in reducing pigmentation and brightening skin. - Salicylic Acid unclogs pores and reduces acne — lekin kuch logon ko initial purging ya irritation ho sakta hai.

Aapka skin oily hai aur pimples 6 mahine se hain, isliye: - Patch test zaroor karein (1–2 din ke liye ear ke peeche ya jawline par). - Serum ko raat mein lagayein, aur sunscreen din mein use karein. - Agar burning, redness, ya zyada pimples ho jaayein, turant rok dein.

Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

I am Dr Soukhya, completed my BAMS degree under Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Science, and sometimes I still can’t believe how fast that year of full-time practice went by… feels like I m still figuring small things while already handling so many female disorders and skin related conditions every day. I work mostly with Ayurveda treatments for gynic cases, hormonal ups-and-downs, chronic skin troubles and a few other things that always need more gentle hands than people expect. I am practicing for a year now, but honestly the learning kind of never stop, each patient shows something new… sometimes I even pause thinking “wait, did I explain that right” and then go again with more clarity. My focus stays on understanding the root-cause, balancing doshas properly, and giving care that feel practical not over complicated. I treated many gynic issues, from irregular cycles to pregnency related discomforts, and a lot of cosmetology concerns too (acne, pigmentation and stuff that people get worried about really quickly!). I am also running offline yoga classes for pregnant women and others too… it started simple but grew into this small supportive space where I see how much differnce breathing and mindful movement makes. Sometimes the schedule gets messy, or I m not sure if the batch timing was perfect, but the sessions still turn meaningful. Ayurveda, yoga, routine corrections — all these tie together in my approach. I try to keep things straighforward, even if my notes get a bit scattered here and there or a comma miss somewhere, but the intention stays steady: help people feel better with methods that respect body’s natural healing.

When considering using a Beauty Glazed Vitamin C 10% serum for pimples and dark spots, it’s important to understand how it interacts with your skin according to Ayurvedic principles. Vitamin C is known for its antioxidant properties and can help in brightening the skin and fading dark spots over time. However, if your skin tends to be sensitive or if you have active pimples, there are a few things to consider before using it.

In Ayurveda, skin issues like pimples (acne) are often linked to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which is related to heat and inflammation. Dark spots can also be a result of excess Pitta. Using products that are too strong or not suitable for your skin type can exacerbate the problem, so it is helpful to ensure that the product is suitable for your skin’s sensitivities.

Before applying the serum, perform a patch test. Apply a small amount of the serum on a discreet area of your face or inner forearm to observe any reaction. If no irritation occurs within 24 hours, it is generally safe to use. Start by applying the serum once every other day, preferably in the evening after cleansing your face, for a week to test how your skin responds.

Ayurvedically, complement this routine with a balanced diet rich in cooling foods to pacify Pitta. Foods like cucumbers, watermelon, leafy greens, and herbs like cilantro can help. Drinking adequate water and herbal teas like chamomile can also assist in balancing Pitta.

Cleanse your face with a natural, gentle face wash containing turmeric or neem, which have anti-inflammatory properties and can support the reduction of acne. It’s also advisable to avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods that can increase Pitta imbalance.

If you notice severe irritation, discontinue use of the serum and consider consulting a dermatologist. Ayurveda also suggests home remedies using natural ingredients like aloe vera gel or sandalwood paste as alternatives to soothe and heal the skin if commercial products do not suit your skin type.

Using Beauty Glazed Vitamin C 10% serum for both pimples and dark spots seems like a plausible approach, but let’s consider your unique body constitution and health condition through the lens of Siddha-Ayurveda. Pimples, or acne, are often linked to an imbalance of the Pitta dosha, which is associated with heat and inflammation. Dark spots, on the other hand, may relate to issues involving uneven skin pigmentation or the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation often following acne.

Vitamin C is known for its ability to promote collagen production and lighten pigmentation, which is beneficial for reducing dark spots. However, it may not directly address the root cause of your acne, which often stems from deeper metabolic imbalances or lifestyle factors. If your acne presents with redness, heat, or pus, it’s essential to focus first on pacifying Pitta through cooling and calming methods.

You could try calming your Pitta by consuming cooling foods like cucumber, watermelon, and cilantro. Avoid spicy, sour, and oily foods that can aggravate Pitta. Topically, you can apply aloe vera gel or make a paste from sandalwood and turmeric for its anti-inflammatory properties. Use Beauty Glazed Vitamin C serum cautiously; test a small patch first to ensure your skin doesn’t overreact, particularly if it’s sensitive or currently inflamed.

Furthermore, maintain a gentle cleansing routine to keep pores clear without overdrying. Consider incorporating practices like warm sesame oil massage to balance Vata and Pitta if stress or irregular routines contribute to your skin issues.

Monitor how your skin responds over a few weeks. If your skin continues to show signs of irritation or if there’s no improvement, it may be wise to consult a dermatologist, especially if underlying conditions exist that need targeted treatments. Remember, holistic approaches in Siddha-Ayurveda provide supportive care; being attentive to how your body, diet, and lifestyle intersect will help you make informed choices.

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Shazia Amreen
I am Dr. Shazia Amreen, an Ayurvedic physcian with a little over 7 years of hands-on experience in clinical practice. I did my MD in Ayurveda from Government Ayurveda Medical College, Bangalore—and honestly, those years helped me go much deeper into the classical texts and the clinical ground. Not just theory... actual healing. Since 2017, I’ve worked closely with a diverse set of patients—from chronic gut problems to skin & hair concerns, musculoskeletal issues, hormonal imbalances, kidney stones, you name it. My core strength really lies in Panchakarma and gastrointestinal healing, where I don’t just jump into detox, but take time to see where the agni is, how deep the ama has gone, and whether the body’s ready to reset. I’m very rooted in classical assessment—looking at dosha imbalance, dhatu state, and prakriti before planning anything. But also, I keep it grounded in modern daily life. What’s the point of a great herbal blend if the person can’t sleep on time or digest their food properly, right? That’s why I focus big on Ahara-Vihara guidance. I don’t just hand over a diet list—I walk people through why those changes matter, and how to make them sustainable. In my practice, I often blend Rasayana chikitsa with basic lifestyle coaching, especially for cases like IBS, PCOS, eczema, migraines, or stress-triggered flareups. Each case is unique, and I don’t believe in repeating the same formula just because it worked for someone else. I also emphasize emotional reset, especially in long-standing chronic cases—sometimes people carry fear, shame, or frustration about their illness. I try to hold space for that too. Whether it’s someone coming in for general detox, a fertility consult, or just confused by their symptoms—I aim to build a plan that makes sense to them. It should feel doable. Balanced. And over time, it should make them feel like they’re coming back home to their own body. That’s the kind of Ayurvedic care I believe in—and try to deliver every single day.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Garima Mattu
I am working in Ayurveda for about 2 years now, mainly around gynecological problems, which I honestly feel are way more common than most people realise. I see a lot of women struggling silently with issues like irregular periods, cramps that just don’t stop, mood swings, PCOS kind of symptoms... sometimes they come in after trying a bunch of stuff already n nothing really works long-term. That’s where I try to bring in a more rooted approach. I use a mix of Ayurvedic principles, dietetics (like food based on dosha & body type etc), and yoga therapy to manage these conditions. It’s not just about reducing pain during periods or balancing hormones—it’s more like trying to understand what’s causing the imbalances in the first place. I spend time trying to map the prakriti-vikriti profile and see how stress, food, daily habits are impacting the cycle. I don’t rush things, coz honestly healing isn't linear and doesn't follow some fixed timeline. And not everyone wants to jump into panchakarma straightaway either, right? Also pain management is a big part of my work. Whether it’s period cramps or pelvic pain, or even chronic stuff tied to digestion and fatigue, I look at how we can ease that naturally. Sometimes through simple things like castor oil packs, or subtle shifts in routine, other times I may recommend herbs or formulations. Yoga plays a huge role too, esp. when the body feels stuck or inflamed. Not gym-style yoga, more therapeutic.. breath n movement syncing with dosha correction, that kind of thing. To be honest, I’m still learning—Ayurveda’s depth is huge, and I feel like I’m just getting started. But what I do know is, when I see women begin to trust their own body’s rhythm again, that’s really powerful. Makes all the effort worth it. Even small relief matters. It's not perfect, sometimes things take longer, sometimes we need to adjust mid-way... but it's real.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.
