Why are people living in Ludhiana experiencing skin issues and hair fall?

Ludhiana, a planned city located in northern India, primarily relies on groundwater for its water supply. People living in Ludhiana majorly rely on groundwater for drinking, cooking, or taking baths. However, the groundwater quality in Ludhiana has worsened over the past few decades because of the growth in population and the setting up of new industries.

Groundwater in Ludhiana is hard water containing Total Dissolved Solids at levels beyond safety limits. Using hard water has many consequences like dryness, ionisation, frizziness, hair cuticle issues, and scalp issues like eczema and alopecia (hair loss). As a result, hair fall is a very common issue seen in people living in Ludhiana area, especially young adults.

Not only is hard groundwater aid bad for the hair of people living in Ludhiana but also has a bad impact on their skin. This hard water effect on hair and skin is reversible with remedies that focus on scalp and skin repair. To protect your hair and skin from hard water, some effective methods include using a shower filter, using water softener/RO, using purified bottled water, using moisturising masks, and choosing the right shampoo and conditioners as well as soaps. Hair fall treatments such as scalp microneedling, P-R-P therapy, and hair mesotherapy are usually recommended by Dr. Shikha Aggarwal, a dermatologist in Ludhiana, in cases where people find hair fall as a concern.

The skin issues and hair fall experienced by people living in Ludhiana are also due to dry weather conditions. When the air is dry, the skin is not able to lock in moisture and thus turns dry, flaky, and itchy. The rise in population in Ludhiana and change in lifestyles has even given rise to the development of skin issues in many residents. Polluted air is the culprit behind atopic dermatitis and even premature aging in people of Ludhiana.

A skin expert in Ludhiana like Dr. Shikha Aggarwal can help address skin issues caused by environmental factors in people residing in Ludhiana in the best possible way. She can suggest the best skin care routine and comprehensive skin care plan that can help good skin and hair health.

What to look for when looking for a dermatologist?

There is a wide range of skin, hair, nail, and mucous membrane conditions that can affect our life quality.

They provide the best possible skincare and guides people on how to build a good skin and hair care routine. That’s why consulting the right dermatologist is crucial.

If you are searching for a dermatologist in Ludhiana, the following tips can help you find the one you click with:

  • Verify credentials of the practitioner- You must ensure that you are selecting a doctor who is certified to practise dermatology and has the required knowledge, expertise, and skills.
  • Look for the expertise and experience of a dermatologist- You must search for a dermatologist who has good patient reviews, decades of experience, and great expertise.
  • Determine if your dermatology needs are medical, surgical, or cosmetic- You must look out for a dermatologist whose specialty most closely aligns with your unique needs. For instance, if you have medical skin issues like cystic acne and rosacea, you will be best treated by a medical dermatologist.

  • Check for what insurance a dermatologist accepts- In case you are worried about your expenses and want your skin treatment covered by insurance. Look for a dermatologist who accepts your insurance plan and provides coverage for treatment of your condition.
  • If applicable, search for a dermatologist who treats people of colour- For a dermatologist, having expertise in skin colour and type is very important to carry out procedures like microneedling and lasers. This way, you can receive optimal dermatologic care.
