New Delhi, April 29: When it comes to beauty enhancement procedures and anti-ageing recipes, the subtle is better, and less is really more. Because the best anti-ageing routine is the kind that keeps everyone guessing! No one has to know!
Dr Jamuna Pai, India’s leading cosmetologist, knows what it takes to transform your appearance and maintain it as years go by. After all, she has been a pioneering aesthetic physician in India, one who revolutionized the field by her contributions over the years.
Now, she has turned author and penned down the gist of her career’s learning and practical advice. Dr Jamuna Pai released her debut book “No One Has To Know” in New Delhi today, unveiling rich secrets of maintaining good lifelong skin health.
Dr Pai, the celebrated medical cosmetologist and pioneer in age-defying techniques works on the principle that people willing to invest time and other resources in anti-ageing treatments don’t always want to look like they have done so.
Following the book release, Dr Pai held a detailed and interesting conservation with entrepreneur and socialite Ramola Bachchan about her life as well as about the subject of her book. Dr Pai also read some excerpts from her ‘beauty bible’ that painstakingly explains the ageing process and also what effectively slows it down.
“While the quest for slowing down the visible process of ageing has been old enough, never before did mankind know so well the science behind ageing. This puts us in a remarkable position from where, if we work diligently, can slow down this process. However, there is no single magic mantra to transform your appearance. A wide variety of factors need to be controlled and followed for most part of your life. People who look stunning even when they are not so young do not just have genes on their side, but have invested years in leading a healthy, toxin free life. They might also have taken the help of medical aesthetics. Yet, not everybody needs to know the effort you have put in or the process you have gone through. This is the idea behind the book,” says Dr Pai, who founded Blush Clinics twenty-one years back when cosmetology was still at a nascent stage in India.
Blush Clinics, the most credible name in the field of aesthetic medicine in Mumbai, made its debut in New Delhi in 2013 with the opening of Dr Pai’s first clinic in the national capital.
“When I started Blush Clinics in the early '90s there were no protocols for Indian skin. The set protocols all addressed to either Caucasian skin, African skin or Asian skin. There was no available material on skin typical to the Indian subcontinent. This held true for everything from simple facials to hair reduction lasers and treatments for skin rejuvenation. My biggest challenge, and subsequently my biggest achievement, was the fact that I was able to identify and establish these protocols. I was determined to merge my medical knowledge to cosmetic treatments and my passion and a keen eye for aesthetics helped me achieve my goal,” she says.
Rightly called the ‘bible of beauty’, the book includes every detail you needed to know about Indian skincare, repair and rejuvenation. The ultimate anti ageing guide also talks about in detail the ways to slow down and even reverse the signs of ageing.
Dr Pai has let the cat out of the bag hidden for so long. Revolving around the general problems faced by Indian skin due to the presence of melanin, the book elaborates on Dr Pai’s 5E approach -- everyday exfoliate, erase, eat, exercise. From homemade remedies to sunscreens, from facial exercises to Botox, from alkalizing foods to state-of-the-art non-surgical techniques, this is your one-stop resource for cutting-edge advice depending on your age, the severity of the problem and your budget.
Adding cherry to the cake, the book also has anecdotes from her years in skincare and her personal encounters, with testimonials from some of her celebrity clients.
