✨ This Diwali, I’m reminded that the festival of lights is more than a cultural celebration — it’s a powerful symbol of hope, resilience, and the triumph of light over darkness.

Though rooted in Hindu tradition, Diwali transcends religion. Across South Asia and beyond, it’s a time to reflect, forgive, renew relationships, and choose goodness — over ego, over hatred, over fear.

In today’s world, where conflict, division and uncertainty can feel overwhelming, the message of Diwali couldn’t be more relevant:
💡 Let’s be the light in someone’s darkness.
💡 Let’s stand for truth, compassion, and unity.
💡 Let’s keep choosing the better path, even when it’s harder.

Wishing everyone — whatever your faith or background — a Diwali filled with peace, purpose, and light. 🪔💛

I’m pleased to be joining the Gloves Off Panel: Aesthetic Treatments – Trendy or Timeless? at this year’s CCR London.⁣
⁣
In a landscape driven by innovation, social trends and evolving patient expectations, it’s more important than ever to discern what’s genuinely effective from what’s just trending.⁣
⁣
I’ll be joined by a wonderful line-up of practitioners for a conversation led by Alice Hart-Davis, as we explore:
✔️ What treatments are gaining traction
✔️ What’s falling out of favour
✔️ What has proven staying power in modern aesthetics
⁣
If you’re attending CCR London, I’d hope to see you there.
⁣
🗓 Thursday 25th September
🕓 16:30 – 16:55

Thanks to Living360 for featuring my comments and opinion on Kim Kardashian’s latest launch, the Skims Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap.

While the product makes bold claims about sculpting and tightening the face, I explained why there’s little scientific evidence to support long-term results. At best, compression garments may offer short-term improvements in puffiness through fluid redistribution, much like the marks left on your skin by tight socks.

I also highlighted the potential downsides of prolonged compression, such as skin irritation, impaired lymphatic flow, and barrier disruption if used incorrectly.

When it comes to achieving real, lasting improvements in facial tone and skin health, my advice remains the same: focus on evidence-based solutions such as energy-based devices (radiofrequency, ultrasound), collagen-boosting skincare, and maintaining good lifestyle habits.

It’s always encouraging to see a wider conversation about beauty standards and product claims, and I’m glad to contribute a voice of science and clarity to the discussion.

Yesterday marked 78 years of India’s independence (15th August 1947). A day not only of remembrance, but of reflection. For me, as a proud Brit of Indian heritage, it is a moment to honour the courage of my parents who journeyed here from India, and the resilience of a nation whose roots run deep in science, philosophy, and healing.

India’s contributions to the world go far beyond politics or history. From the wisdom of Ayurveda — a system of health and balance thousands of years old — to yoga, meditation, and plant-based remedies, many of these traditions now find resonance in Western medicine and lifestyle. We are rediscovering that true health is not just the absence of disease, but the harmony of body, mind, and spirit.

As a doctor, I am reminded that progress is not about choosing between East and West, but about learning from both. Modern medicine saves lives. Ancient medicine teaches us how to live. Together, they offer us a path not only to longer years, but to better ones.

So today, I celebrate my Indian heritage, my British identity, and the universal pursuit of health and freedom. 🌍✨

Happy Independence Day 🇮🇳

I’m pleased to have my comments featured in The Industry Beauty, responding to the Government’s new measures for our sector.

As many of you know, patient safety has always been my top priority. While this announcement is a positive step forward, especially for high-risk procedures like filler injections to the breasts and ge****ls, we must ensure these protections are not just proposed but enforced. And of course, we also need the government to show more urgency regarding the wider sphere of aesthetic procedures too!

Legislation must be clear, robust, and implemented without delay, because every day without it is another day patients remain at risk. Let’s keep the pressure on, keep the conversation alive, and make sure these changes become law.

Grateful to have my comments featured in the latest piece by PBL Magazine, covering the government’s long-overdue crackdown on unsafe aesthetic procedures.

As many of you know, I’ve been vocal for years about the urgent need for tighter laws to protect patients, not just regulations, but actual criminal consequences for those performing high-risk treatments without proper qualifications or facilities.

This is a welcome step in the right direction. Let’s keep pushing for real change in our industry.

Is SPF 50 really worth the hype? 🔍

You’ve probably been told to go as high as possible with your sunscreen, but is SPF 50 that much better than SPF 30?

Yes, protection matters, but formulation, reapplication, and UVA coverage matter more.

A well-formulated SPF 25 can sometimes outperform an SPF 50 if the latter isn’t applied correctly or lacks broad-spectrum protection.

Plus, combining your SPF with antioxidants like Vitamin C can amplify your defence against sun-induced ageing.

👉 Swipe through to reveal the real difference, and what matters most when protecting your skin.
