It's not just about the hair!

It's not just about the hair!

Dr Pornima Mhatray has been a medical Doctor for over 30 years, and specialises in hair & skin treatments as she believes that hair or skin problems are a mirror of your overall health, and could be a sign of many possible concerns in the body.

We discuss taking a holistic approach to hair health, looking at many contributing factors, such as diet, stress & cortisol levels, hormones and fitness levels. She recommends nutrition, counselling, even meditation alongside some more conventional treatment options, and more recent innovations such as PRP.

She says she is seeing more patients in her clinic in Mumbai who are younger who are suffering from hair loss, and how this can affect their mental health. For some people, treatments like hair transplants can have a life changing effect, but this needs to be supported by an overall health plan.

Dr Pornima advises that if you are thinking of trying a certain product or medication, it is important to consult a professional to support and guide you.
