Skin Lattice Clinic Offers Advanced Solution for Hirsutism

Skin Lattice Clinic has made a significant stride in dermatological care by becoming the first clinic in Gurgaon to introduce the FDA-approved Alma Titanium Pro laser hair removal technology. This cutting-edge technology, renowned for its advanced cooling system and precision targeting, sets a new benchmark in laser hair removal, delivering exceptional results with minimal discomfort.

At the launch, Dr. Abhishek Omchery, Founder of Skin Lattice Clinic, highlighted the profound impact of hirsutism on women's mental health. "Hirsutism, an excessive growth of male-pattern hair in women, is more than just a cosmetic concern. It can lead to significant psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. For women battling hirsutism, the societal stigma can be overwhelming, affecting their relationships, careers, and overall quality of life."

Studies indicate that hirsutism affects between 5 and 15% of women globally, with approximately 40% experiencing some degree of facial hair. While many factors can contribute to hirsutism, including hormonal imbalances and genetic predisposition, a significant portion of cases remain idiopathic, meaning they have no identifiable cause. For these women, laser hair removal often represents the most effective solution.

"In India, approximately 10 million women are diagnosed with hirsutism each year, with 1 to 1.5 million cases being idiopathic, meaning there is no underlying medical condition to treat. For these women, traditional treatments may fall short, making hair removal the most practical solution. By introducing advanced laser technology, we aim to address this challenge effectively. Our mission is to not only provide state-of-the-art dermatological care but also to alleviate one of the primary triggers of anxiety and depression associated with hirsutism. Ensuring that every woman receives the best possible treatment and support is central to our commitment to improving overall mental well-being”, added Dr Omchery.
