Yes. Dermal fillers work beautifully alongside Botox, skin boosters, and laser treatments for complete facial rejuvenation.

Most treatments are well-tolerated. We use numbing creams to ensure comfort.

While we aim for dramatic improvement, 100% removal isn’t guaranteed. However, most patients see 60–80% visible reduction.

Mild redness or flaking can happen, but you can usually return to normal activities within 24–48 hours.

We recommend waiting at least 24 hours or until the skin settles.

Yes. Silicone implants mimic the natural breast tissue feel and move with your body.

In most cases, yes. The implants don’t interfere with breast glands if placed correctly.

We use minimal, well-hidden incisions either around the areola or under the breast fold, ensuring scars fade over time.

No. Incisions are hidden within the natural creases of your eyelids or inside the lower lid, making scars barely noticeable.

Most people return to work and light activities within a week. Swelling and minor bruising usually resolve in 7–10 days.

Blepharoplasty results often last 10–15 years, though aging continues naturally. Healthy lifestyle choices, sun protection, and proper skin care help extend the benefits, ensuring eyes remain youthful and refreshed for longer periods.

The procedure is done under local anesthesia with sedation. Most patients report only mild discomfort during the recovery phase.

Most patients begin to see visible hair growth between 3 to 5 months post-treatment. The full results generally become evident after 10 to 12 months. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra monitors your progress through scheduled follow-ups, ensuring healthy follicle regeneration. Each hair cycle is tracked meticulously, and patients are guided with aftercare that supports optimal growth. Dr. Chandra ensures realistic expectations and visible improvement that continues well into the first year.

 Yes, the approach differs due to varied hair loss patterns and donor area density.

For women, the focus is often on preserving existing density, while for men, it's about redefining the hairline.

Radiant Roots specializes in adapting surgical precision for both genders, delivering results that appear natural, regardless of the pattern or severity of hair loss.

Our experts will assess your scalp conditions and hormonal backgrounds in detail before customizing the technique.

Absolutely. Radiant Roots offers advanced follicular unit extraction (FUE) techniques for beard and eyebrow restoration. Under Dr. Chandra’s expertise, individual hair follicles are carefully implanted to mimic natural hair direction and density. These procedures require micro-precision and aesthetic sensitivity. Clients seeking fuller beards or more defined eyebrows benefit from this specialized service with permanent, realistic outcomes tailored to facial contours.

 Post-treatment care is crucial. Avoid sun exposure, heavy workouts, and scalp contact for at least 7-10 days. Patients are also encouraged to sleep with their head elevated to reduce swelling.

 Yes, secondary sessions are common and often part of a broader treatment plan. At Radiant Roots, our expert will evaluate your donor area’s health and scalp elasticity before planning additional grafts. Whether it’s to increase density or expand coverage, the second procedure is approached with refined precision.

Hair density is assessed through a digital scalp analysis at Radiant Roots. Our hair transplant expert, Dr. Chandra uses trichoscopy to evaluate follicular health and scalp condition. This data-driven approach allows for a calculated distribution of grafts to achieve natural-looking thickness. Mapping the hairline and estimating graft survival helps personalize treatment. This measured planning ensures each transplant area receives appropriate follicle placement, maximizing growth without overwhelming your scalp’s healing capacity.

The transplanted hair retains the texture of the donor area, meaning the new growth will match your existing natural hair. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra carefully selects donor follicles that blend seamlessly with your existing hair type. Any initial frizziness or change is usually due to regrowth shock, which subsides in a few months. With proper post-operative care the texture stabilizes, creating a uniform and undetectable transition

Our expert Hair Transplant Specialist at Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra employs strategic graft angling, single-hair follicle placement, and scalp design mapping to construct hairlines that mirror natural growth. Artistic symmetry, facial shape, and age are considered during the planning. Each follicle is placed in a direction and depth that mimics organic patterns. Dr. Chandra’s precision and aesthetic judgment have a proven record of achieving a youthful but realistic look that blends naturally with your existing hair.

While not mandatory, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is highly recommended at Radiant Roots for post-transplant follicle stimulation. Dr. Chandra uses PRP to accelerate healing and support stronger, faster growth. The plasma, rich in growth factors, nourishes grafts, reduces inflammation, and boosts collagen production. Patients who combine PRP with hair transplants often report quicker growth and better density over time.

For patients with limited donor hair, Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots evaluates alternative zones like beard or body hair. A thorough donor assessment ensures graft viability and long-term sustainability. Using advanced extraction tools, our expert blends multiple donor sites without creating patchiness. The result? Uniform density and a natural finish, even when traditional scalp donor areas are sparse.

Yes. PRP is often used as a post-transplant booster to support healing and enhance graft survival. Dr. Chandra frequently integrates PRP therapy after a hair transplant to strengthen native hair and stimulate faster recovery of transplanted follicles

PRP can help in such cases, but it depends on the underlying cause. If stress or hormonal imbalances (like hypothyroidism) are controlled, PRP can support regrowth. Dr. Chandra evaluates patients holistically and may advise treating the root cause alongside PRP for best results.

While many patients respond well to PRP, results vary. If suppose, you don’t see progress after 3–4 sessions, Dr. Chandra, an expert Hair Transplant Surgeon at Radiant Roots, Mangalore, may suggest advanced options like GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate), mesotherapy, or hair transplant surgery, depending on your hair loss pattern and expectations.

Yes, lifestyle plays a crucial role. Dr. Chandra often recommends a hair-friendly diet, reducing heat styling, and managing stress. Smoking and alcohol can interfere with blood quality and reduce PRP effectiveness, so cutting back can improve results.

PRP is more effective in areas with thinning hair than in fully bald zones. For early-stage hairline recession, PRP can slow the process and improve density. However, for deep temple balding, Dr. Chandra may recommend combining PRP with targeted grafting techniques.

PRP relies on existing but weakened hair follicles to stimulate regrowth. If the scalp is too far gone—i.e., shiny or scarred in bald areas—PRP may not be effective. Dr. Chandra uses scalp magnification tools during consultations to assess follicular viability before recommending the treatment.

Yes, it does. Since PRP is derived from your own blood, factors like hydration, nutrition, and overall health impact platelet concentration and effectiveness. Dr. Chandra, at Radiant Roots, suggests improving diet or pausing certain medications before your session to maximize PRP quality.

Absolutely. PRP is a hormone-free, natural option ideal for women dealing with postpartum shedding. Dr. Chandra, one of India’s leading Hair transplant surgeons in Mangalore, has successfully treated many female patients experiencing hair loss after childbirth, ensuring safe protocols tailored to women’s unique scalp sensitivity.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses your own blood to stimulate hair growth. The platelet-rich plasma, once separated from the blood, is injected into the scalp to promote healing and hair follicle regeneration. It’s especially effective in early stages of hair thinning.

Most people need a series of 3 to 4 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, to notice visible improvements in hair thickness and volume. An expert PRP Therapy Specialist in Mangalore typically recommends a customized treatment plan based on the individual’s hair condition and response to therapy.

Unlike commercial setups, Radiant Roots emphasizes individualized care, not volume. Dr. Chandra conducts every consultation and monitors each stage personally—from assessment to implantation. There’s no cookie-cutter formula. Instead, you get tailored strategies that suit your scalp’s biology, lifestyle, and goals. Dr. Chandra’s focus on quality over quantity ensures lasting results and an unmatched client experience rooted in trust and clinical integrity.

Yes. The transplanted hair behaves exactly like your natural hair because it is your natural hair. After the grafts settle and mature (typically around 6 to 8 months), you can cut, dye, curl, or style your transplanted hair freely. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots advises using gentle products initially, but once the follicles stabilize, they require no special care. Your new hairline blends so well, even your barber won’t know it was transplanted.

Absolutely. Hair texture, curl pattern, and scalp tone all vary across ethnicities. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra customizes graft extraction and implantation methods based on your ethnic background. This ensures realistic angles and avoids follicular trauma. Whether your hair is coily, straight, or wavy, proper understanding of diverse follicular structures ensures that the final result suits your natural look.

Yes. After the transplant, most grafts enter a “shedding” phase known as shock loss. It’s temporary and expected. Every expert hair transplant surgeon closely monitors the regrowth during this phase. Within a few weeks, follicles begin the active growth cycle, and by month four, new hair starts surfacing. The key is patience, and with Dr. Chandra guiding your recovery, you’ll notice visible, consistent growth soon enough.

Hair transplants can help with certain types of alopecia, especially stable forms like traction alopecia or androgenetic alopecia.
At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra examines your alopecia history before proceeding. For conditions like alopecia areata, non-surgical options may be advised first. If the patches are stable, careful and meticulous implantation techniques can ensure even coverage and lasting regrowth.

Rhinoplasty, commonly called a nose job, is a surgical procedure that reshapes or resizes the nose. It can correct cosmetic issues like a bump, crooked nose, wide nostrils, or a drooping tip, and may also improve breathing in some cases.

No. While many people choose rhinoplasty to improve appearance, it can also be done for medical reasons—such as correcting a deviated septum or repairing damage from injury, which can affect breathing and nasal function.

You may be a good candidate if your facial growth is complete, you're in good general health, and you have realistic expectations. Dr. Chandra conducts a thorough facial analysis and discusses your goals to determine if rhinoplasty is right for you.

Yes. Functional rhinoplasty can improve airflow by correcting structural issues like a deviated septum or collapsed nasal valves. Dr. Chandra evaluates both the aesthetic and functional aspects of your nose before recommending surgery.

Most patients report mild discomfort rather than pain. Rhinoplasty is performed under anesthesia, and Dr. Chandra ensures post-operative pain is well managed with medications and proper aftercare instructions.

Initial recovery takes about 1–2 weeks, during which swelling and bruising subside. Most patients return to work or school within 10 days, though full healing and final results can take up to a year.

In most cases, no. Closed rhinoplasty involves incisions inside the nostrils, leaving no visible scars. For open rhinoplasty, a small incision is made at the base of the nose, which usually heals with minimal or invisible scarring.

Yes, the results are long-lasting, often permanent. However, the shape of the nose may subtly change over time due to aging. Dr. Chandra’s technique focuses on creating balanced, natural-looking results that age gracefully.

After rhinoplasty, you should avoid strenuous exercise, wearing glasses on the nose bridge, blowing your nose, and any trauma to the face for several weeks. Dr. Chandra provides a personalized recovery plan at his clinic to help you heal safely.

Yes. It can be combined with chin augmentation, eyelid surgery, or even non-surgical treatments like fillers for facial harmony. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra often tailors combination procedures based on each patient’s facial proportions and goals.

PRP therapy is generally well-tolerated. You might feel a mild tingling or pinching sensation during the injections, but it’s not considered painful. There's minimal to no downtime—most patients can return to their daily routine immediately after the session.

Yes, PRP therapy can be effectively combined with other treatments like medications (Minoxidil or Finasteride) or hair transplant surgery. At Dr. Chandra’s clinic, a multi-modal approach is often recommended to achieve optimal results.

PRP works best for individuals experiencing the early stages of hair thinning or pattern baldness. It may not be as effective for those with complete baldness. Dr. Chandra conducts a thorough scalp analysis to determine whether PRP is suitable for your condition.

Yes, but with some precautions. While mild shampooing and conditioning are generally fine, it's best to avoid harsh chemicals, heat styling, or hair colouring for a few days after each session. At Radiant Roots, Mangalore, Dr. Chandra provides personalized aftercare instructions to ensure your routine supports the treatment rather than hinders it.

Many patients report a noticeable reduction in hair fall within 3–4 weeks after the first or second session. However, full visible improvement usually takes around 3 months. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots, Mangalore closely monitors progress during the treatment cycle and adjusts the plan if results plateau.

At the 6-month mark, you’ll likely see about 60-70% of the growth. Hair appears finer at first but thickens gradually. At Radiant Roots, your progress is documented through regular reviews. 
Patients are encouraged to maintain nutritional balance and scalp hygiene for optimum results. Though not the final stage, 6 months is a rewarding checkpoint, where you’ll notice a clear difference in your hairline and volume.

Graft survival depends on handling, storage, and speed of a hair transplant expert. Our expert Dr. Chandra, uses chilled saline preservation and minimal holding time to protect follicle health. Each graft is handled delicately and placed with minimal trauma. This results in higher survival rates and stronger hair anchoring. His technique reduces follicular stress, meaning more of your transplanted hairs thrive and grow exactly as planned.

Yes, a hair transplant can help with receding temples. Restoring temple recession is one of the most common requests at Radiant Roots. Dr. Chandra uses the FUE technique to reshape the hairline to balance the temples and your facial proportions. Graft density and angling are adjusted to make the sides look seamless and undetectable. This approach frames your face and provides a younger, more structured look—often with fewer grafts but maximum aesthetic impact.

The biggest myth is that hair transplants look obvious or artificial. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra’s use of micrografting and natural density design makes results virtually undetectable. The difference lies in precision, –not just the tools but the artistic eye. When done right, you won’t just regain hair—you regain confidence. And Dr. Chandra ensures every transplant looks like it was never missing in the first place.

Not necessarily, but periodic check-ins are recommended. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots encourages post-treatment reviews at the 3, 6, and 12-month stages. After that, annual check-ups help monitor long-term scalp health and guide you on maintaining hair quality. You won’t be tied to lifelong appointments, but you’ll always have access to expert advice whenever needed.

Yes, PRP therapy can help with certain types of alopecia, especially androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness). It stimulates weak hair follicles and improves scalp health. For alopecia areata, results may vary. At Radiant Roots, Mangalore, Dr. Chandra assesses your condition to decide if PRP alone or in combination with other treatments would be most effective.

Yes, combining PRP with other treatments often improves results, especially in stubborn or advanced alopecia cases. At Radiant Roots, Mangalore, Dr. Chandra may pair PRP with medications like minoxidil, microneedling, or corticosteroid therapy—depending on the type and severity of your alopecia—for a more comprehensive outcome.

If you stop prematurely, initial gains may plateau or reverse over time. PRP isn’t a one-time cure—it works best as a series. At Radiant Roots, we guide our patients on the ideal treatment timeline to maintain results safely and sustainably.

An excessively oily scalp or chronic dandruff can affect PRP absorption and results. At Radiant Roots, Mangalore, Dr. Chandra often recommends treating scalp conditions first to create a healthier foundation for PRP to work effectively

PRP not only boosts current hair growth but also helps slow down future hair loss by strengthening follicles. Dr. Chandra uses a proactive treatment approach at Radiant Roots, Mangalore to support long-term hair retention.

In rare cases, especially when internal nasal structures are significantly altered, rhinoplasty may cause a slight change in voice resonance. This is more noticeable in people who rely on their voice professionally, like singers or speakers. Dr. Chandra discusses such nuances during the consultation to help you make an informed decision.

Rhinoplasty results are long-lasting, but in some cases, patients may seek revision surgery. It’s important to wait at least a year before considering a touch-up, as swelling needs to fully resolve. Dr. Chandra takes a conservative, precision-based approach at Radiant Roots to minimize the need for revisions and ensure you’re satisfied the first time.

The cost of rhinoplasty depends on various factors like the complexity of the procedure, type of correction (cosmetic vs. functional), surgeon’s experience, and hospital facility. At Radiant Roots, Mangalore, Dr. Chandra provides a detailed quote after a personal evaluation, ensuring the plan matches your goals and budget. Financing options may also be available for eligible patients.

Radiant Roots conducts a detailed consultation to evaluate your hair loss pattern, scalp health, and donor hair availability. Age, health conditions, and expectations are all considered. If your hair loss is stable and your donor area has sufficient healthy follicles, you’re likely a good candidate. Dr. Chandra then personalizes your treatment plan to ensure the procedure aligns with your goals and hair restoration potential.

Hair growth treatments typically focus on stimulating dormant follicles, while hair transplants involve moving healthy follicles from one area of the scalp to another. A transplant offers permanent results, whereas growth treatments require ongoing use. Transplants are ideal for those with advanced hair loss who seek a long-lasting, natural-looking solution. With Dr. Chandra, you can discuss these options in detail during your consultation to choose the right approach for your needs.

Yes, a receding hairline is a common issue that can be effectively addressed with a hair transplant. Using advanced FUE methods, Dr. Chandra reshapes the hairline to suit your facial features, ensuring a natural and youthful result. The procedure involves careful placement of follicles to create a smooth, blended hairline that complements your existing hair. With a skilled hair transplant expert, the hairline will seamlessly integrate, leaving no visible signs of surgery.

Dr. Chandra employs state-of-the-art methods like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) to minimize scarring. Unlike older techniques, FUE uses tiny incisions that heal quickly and leave virtually no visible marks. At Radiant Roots, meticulous care is taken to avoid unnecessary trauma to your scalp, which ensures scars are discreet. This leads to a smoother recovery and more aesthetically pleasing results.

The ideal time for a hair transplant often depends on personal lifestyle, health condition, and recovery goals. It’s helpful to schedule the procedure when you can take a few days off to rest and follow post-operative care without interruptions.

Results from a hair transplant are generally permanent. Once the transplanted follicles settle into the scalp, they continue to grow like natural hair. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots emphasizes that, while the transplanted hair remains lifelong, your natural hair might continue to thin over time. However, with regular monitoring and care, the overall appearance will remain thick and youthful for years.

 After a hair transplant, maintaining a healthy diet is essential for optimal healing. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots advises focusing on foods rich in vitamins and minerals that promote hair growth, such as vitamin C, iron, and biotin. He suggests avoiding excessive alcohol or spicy foods in the first few days post-surgery. We offer personalized dietary guidelines to ensure that your scalp receives the nutrients necessary for healing and follicle survival.

 Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical procedure that creates the illusion of a full head of hair by applying pigment to the scalp, mimicking hair follicles. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots differentiates this from hair transplants, which involve relocating actual hair follicles. While SMP provides immediate cosmetic results, a transplant offers a permanent, natural solution. Here, we prefer to discuss which treatment is most suitable for your needs during your consultation, depending on the extent of hair loss.

 After a hair transplant, it’s important to use gentle, non-irritating products. Our Hair transplant specialist, Dr. Chandra, recommends waiting until your scalp has fully healed before resuming regular shampoo. In the initial weeks post-surgery, special shampoos designed for sensitive skin are used to ensure that transplanted follicles remain undisturbed. You will be provided a list of recommended aftercare products to promote healing and ensure that your new hair thrives.

Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots is highly experienced in addressing hair loss on various parts of the body, including the beard, chest, and eyebrows. Whether it’s thinning eyebrows or patchy facial hair, Dr. Chandra uses specialized techniques to extract and implant follicles in these areas. Using your natural hair, the results are smooth and blend seamlessly with the surrounding hair. He customizes every procedure for your unique facial features to deliver the most natural, effective outcome.

Preparing for your consultation with expert Hair Transplant Surgeon, Dr. Chandra, at Radiant Roots involves gathering a comprehensive medical history and discussing your hair loss journey. He recommends documenting any treatments you’ve tried and providing photos of your hair from different angles. He will assess your scalp condition, discuss your goals, and explain the treatment options available. This consultation sets the foundation for a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

 Hair transplant rejection is extremely rare because the follicles used come from your own scalp. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots uses the latest FUE technique, which ensures that the follicles are not damaged and remain compatible with your scalp. The body typically accepts the transplanted follicles as its own, making rejection highly unlikely. 

 It is highly recommended to avoid tight hats or caps for at least 7-10 days after a transplant to prevent pressure on the newly transplanted follicles. Loose-fitting hats can be worn after this period, but it’s essential to ensure they don’t rub against your scalp. At Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra provides detailed post-operative guidelines on how to protect your scalp from friction, sweat, and any external pressure that could harm your hair follicles during the initial healing phase.

One of the most common causes of transplant failure is poor aftercare. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots emphasizes the importance of following post-treatment instructions, including avoiding touching the scalp and protecting it from sun exposure. Additionally, factors like smoking, excessive alcohol, and stress can hinder healing. You need to understand the significance of proper care to achieve the best results. It minimizes the risk of graft loss or complications.

Waiting at least 7-10 days before traveling, especially on long flights. This waiting period allows your scalp to begin healing properly is ideal. For the first few days post-procedure, you'll need to rest and avoid any physical activities that could disturb the grafts. Dr. Chandra advises taking precautionary steps to ensure your scalp remains clean and undisturbed during travel, including using a protective wrap and avoiding direct sun exposure.

Common areas include the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, flanks (love handles), chin, and neck. Dr. Chandra also performs customized liposuction plans based on individual fat distribution and body goals.

Typically, up to 5 liters (about 11 pounds) of fat can be safely removed in one session. More than that may increase risk and may require multiple sessions or alternate approaches.

Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t tighten loose skin. If skin elasticity is poor, Dr. Chandra may recommend combining liposuction with skin tightening procedures or suggest alternatives like tummy tuck or RF-assisted lipo.

Yes, the removed fat cells are gone permanently. However, if you gain weight after surgery, remaining fat cells can expand, so maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial for long-term results.

Initial results can be seen within a few weeks, but final results may take 3 to 6 months as swelling subsides and tissues settle.

You may not see a significant drop in weight. Liposuction reshapes the body more than it reduces weight, so the real difference is in inches, not kilos.

Yes, liposuction is often used to treat gynecomastia. Dr. Chandra regularly performs this procedure at Radiant Roots, Mangalore, offering men a flatter, more masculine chest contour.

Absolutely. It’s often combined with tummy tucks, breast reduction, or fat grafting (like Brazilian Butt Lift). Dr. Chandra tailors each plan based on body type and desired results.

Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots approaches hair loss in women with an emphasis on preserving volume while restoring fullness. Women typically experience diffuse thinning, so Dr. Chandra may focus on redistributing grafts to create a more even, natural look. For men, the procedure often focuses on restoring the hairline and crown. He tailors each procedure based on the individual’s hair loss pattern and desired aesthetic, ensuring optimal results for both men and women.

It’s important to avoid strenuous physical activity for at least 2-3 weeks post-procedure. Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots emphasizes the need for a gradual return to workouts. For the first few weeks, lighter exercises such as walking or stretching are encouraged. Once healing progresses, you can go ahead to resume more intense physical activities without risking damage to your transplanted hair.

Our Hair transplant specialist at Radiant Roots, Dr. Chandra, uses advanced follicular placement strategies to ensure natural-looking density. By selecting the right donor follicles and implanting them in a pattern that mimics natural growth, Dr. Chandra achieves a seamless, voluminous look. The technique also involves spacing the follicles properly, ensuring they’re not too dense or sparse. This meticulous approach ensures that the final results match your natural hair density and blend beautifully with your existing hair.

For those seeking a non-surgical approach, Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots may recommend treatments like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy or Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). These methods stimulate hair growth by promoting the health of existing follicles. While not as permanent as a hair transplant, these therapies can help delay further hair loss and improve hair quality. Dr. Chandra will discuss the suitability of these options depending on your level of hair thinning and personal preferences.

Dr. Chandra at Radiant Roots specializes in working with patients who have sensitive scalps. Through careful planning and using advanced techniques like FUE, Dr. Chandra minimizes trauma to the scalp, reducing discomfort and the risk of complications. If you have a sensitive scalp, Dr. Chandra will offer additional pre- and post-operative care to soothe the skin and ensure a smooth recovery. This allows you to experience the full benefits of your transplant without unnecessary irritation.

It can be, but medical clearance is essential. Dr. Chandra evaluates underlying conditions, adjusts the plan accordingly, and only proceeds if surgery can be performed safely.

This depends on the extent of the procedure. Small areas may be treated under local anesthesia, while larger areas typically require general anesthesia or IV sedation.

Temporary bruising, swelling, numbness, or contour irregularities can occur. Rare complications include infection or fluid accumulation. At Radiant Roots, strict surgical protocols help minimize risks.

Fat cells in treated areas don’t grow back, but surrounding fat cells can expand with weight gain. Dr. Chandra advises patients to maintain a stable weight post-surgery for long-lasting results.

Most people return to light activity within 3 to 5 days and resume normal routines in 1 to 2 weeks. Full recovery, including swelling resolution, may take several months.

Yes. Wearing a compression garment helps reduce swelling, improve contour, and speed up recovery. Dr. Chandra typically recommends wearing it for 4 to 6 weeks post-procedure.

Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t directly treat cellulite or stretch marks. However, smoother contours may make these issues less noticeable. Other treatments may be recommended for skin texture improvement.

Costs vary depending on the number of areas treated and the technique used. On average, liposuction in Mangalore may range from ₹60,000 to ₹1.5 lakhs per area. Dr. Chandra provides transparent pricing after assessment at Radiant Roots.

While implants are long-lasting, they are not considered lifetime devices. Most last 10–20 years, but they may need replacement or revision over time due to aging, rupture, or aesthetic changes.

The main types are silicone gel implants and saline implants. Silicone feels more natural, while saline is filled with sterile salt water. Your surgeon can help decide which suits your body and goals best.

You may be a good candidate if you're physically healthy, have fully developed breasts, and want to enhance breast size, correct asymmetry, or restore volume lost due to weight loss or pregnancy.

Augmentation increases size and fullness, while a breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes sagging breasts. They can be done separately or combined, depending on your needs.

Yes, especially when using silicone implants and placing them under the muscle. The natural feel also depends on your existing breast tissue, skin elasticity, and implant type.

Incisions are usually made in discreet areas like the breast crease, armpit, or around the areola. Scars fade over time and are often barely noticeable with proper care.

Most people return to light activities within 3–7 days and resume normal routines in 4–6 weeks. Full healing and final results may take a few months.

Not unless there’s a problem. While implants don’t expire, they may need to be replaced if there’s rupture, leakage, or aesthetic changes over time. Regular checkups are important.

Cup size is a guide, but surgeons focus more on implant volume (measured in cc) and your body proportions. Your surgeon will help you choose a size that fits naturally with your frame.

Some discomfort is expected in the first few days, especially if implants are placed under the muscle. Pain is usually well-managed with prescribed medications and gradually eases within a week.

Possible risks include infection, implant rupture, capsular contracture (hardening of scar tissue), and changes in nipple sensation. Most complications are rare and manageable with prompt care.

Implants may slightly obscure mammogram images, but experienced radiologists can use special techniques to ensure accurate screening. Always inform your technician about your implants.

Yes. Breast augmentation is often combined with procedures like a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction as part of a "mommy makeover" or complete body contouring plan.

Costs vary by location, surgeon, and implant type, but breast augmentation in India typically ranges from ₹1.5 lakhs to ₹3.5 lakhs. This usually includes hospital stay, surgeon’s fee, and implant cost.

Implants can shift slightly over time due to gravity, weight changes, or aging, but significant movement is rare if they’re properly placed and supported by healthy tissue.

Yes, implants can be removed or replaced if you're unhappy with the results or develop complications. Revision surgeries are available to correct issues or adjust size and shape.

Not right away. You should sleep on your back for at least 4–6 weeks after surgery to avoid pressure on the implants. Once fully healed, most can return to their usual sleeping positions.

Silicone implants feel more natural and are preferred for their realistic texture. Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water and may be slightly firmer. Your body type, aesthetic goals, and medical history can help determine the best choice.

"Drop and fluff" describes how implants settle into a more natural position after surgery. Initially, breasts may look high and tight. Over 6–12 weeks, they gradually drop into place and the tissue softens around them.

Yes. Breast augmentation can correct asymmetry by using different implant sizes or shapes in each breast. However, perfect symmetry may not always be achievable, especially if there's a natural difference in ribcage or muscle.

Temporary changes in nipple sensitivity are common after surgery. Some people experience increased or reduced sensitivity, especially if the incision is near the areola. In most cases, sensation returns within a few months.

Yes, pregnancy and breastfeeding can stretch breast tissue, which may affect the appearance of your implants. Some women notice sagging or volume changes and may opt for a revision or lift afterward.

A tummy tuck is a cosmetic surgery that removes loose skin and excess fat from your abdominal area. It also tightens weakened or separated muscles, resulting in a flatter, firmer midsection.

You may be a good candidate if you've lost a significant amount of weight, gone through pregnancy, or simply struggle with loose skin and poor muscle tone that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise.

Not at all. While many women opt for the procedure after pregnancy, men also seek tummy tucks to tighten skin and improve their abdominal shape after weight loss.

A tummy tuck removes excess skin and tightens muscles, while liposuction only removes fat. Sometimes, both procedures are combined for better contouring.

There are mainly three:

• Mini tummy tuck: targets the lower belly below the navel
• Full tummy tuck: addresses the entire abdomen
• Extended tummy tuck: includes the flanks and sides for a more dramatic transformation

Depending on the type and complexity, a tummy tuck may take anywhere from 2 to 5 hours under general anesthesia.

Recovery usually involves rest, wearing compression garments, and avoiding strenuous activity. Swelling, bruising, and tightness are common but improve over time.

Yes, in a full tummy tuck, the belly button is typically repositioned to maintain a natural look after excess skin is removed.

Most people return to office work within 2 to 3 weeks. Physically demanding jobs might require 4 to 6 weeks of recovery.

You’ll feel soreness, tightness, and discomfort similar to muscle soreness. Pain medication helps manage this during the initial healing phase.

Light walking can start within a few days, but heavy lifting and abdominal workouts should wait at least 6–8 weeks, depending on your surgeon’s advice.

Yes, but pregnancy can stretch the abdominal muscles and skin again. It’s best to undergo the procedure after you’ve completed your family.

It may remove some stretch marks, especially if they’re located in the area of skin that’s excised—usually below the belly button.

The results can last for years if you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. Significant weight fluctuations can affect long-term results.

Yes, if you gain weight after surgery, fat can return. However, the contour usually remains better than before the surgery.

A mini tummy tuck is a smaller procedure focusing only on the lower abdomen. It’s ideal for people who have a small pooch or minor skin laxity below the belly button.

Yes, you should be close to your ideal weight before the surgery. A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss method—it’s best for contouring.

Absolutely. Many people combine it with liposuction or breast surgeries as part of a mommy makeover or full-body transformation.

You’ll need to maintain a stable weight, avoid smoking, stop certain medications, and follow a pre-op checklist provided by your surgeon.

Some surgeons use small drains to prevent fluid buildup under the skin. These are usually removed within a week or two.

Some fluid buildup is normal after surgery. Your surgeon may place small drains to help remove it, and they’re usually taken out within a week. Wearing a compression garment also helps reduce swelling and supports healing.

Yes, tightening the abdominal muscles can improve core strength, leading to better posture and sometimes relief from lower back discomfort.

Like any surgery, risks include infection, bleeding, poor wound healing, and asymmetry. Choosing an experienced surgeon helps minimize these risks.

While some improvement is immediate, swelling can last several months. Most people see their final results around the 6-month mark.

Yes—sticking to a fitness routine and maintaining a healthy diet can enhance and prolong your results.

In most cases, it’s considered a cosmetic procedure and not covered by insurance. Rare exceptions may apply if there’s a medical need.

Yes, many patients choose a tummy tuck after major weight loss to remove excess skin. Your weight must be stable before considering surgery.

While occasional weight fluctuations are fine, significant weight gain can stretch the skin and muscles again, affecting your results.

Because it reshapes the body, improves posture, and makes clothing fit better. The visual and physical changes can boost self-esteem and body image significantly.

A male breast reduction surgically removes excess fat and glandular tissue—often via liposuction and/or excision—to achieve a flatter, more masculine chest contour.

Ideal candidates are men with persistent breast enlargement due to excess tissue (not just weight), typically after puberty or weight loss, who experience embarrassment, discomfort, or self-esteem issues.

Surgeons usually combine liposuction to remove fat with gland excision through small areola or chest-incision scars. The specific technique depends on the tissue amount and skin laxity.

Most patients return to light daily activities in 3–7 days. Compression garments are worn for 2–6 weeks, with full exercise resumed in 4–8 weeks.

In early or mild cases, lifestyle changes, exercise, avoiding estrogen-mimicking drugs, or medication (like tamoxifen) may help, but lifelong, fibrous tissue often requires surgical reduction.

Incisions are usually discreet—around the areola or underarm. At Radiant Roots, surgeons use precise techniques to ensure scars remain minimal and blend naturally with the chest contour, even in cases requiring skin excision.

Results are long-lasting; however, significant weight gain, steroid use, or hormonal imbalance can cause recurrence. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key.

Gynecomastia in teens often resolves within 1–2 years. Surgery is advised only once the condition persists beyond puberty and is done safely for adults.

Most health plans consider it cosmetic and don’t cover it. In rare cases—when medical issues or psychological distress exist—coverage may be possible but typically not guaranteed.

You may need medical exams (e.g. blood tests, mammogram), avoid certain medications and smoking, and plan for recovery—including taking time off work and arranging help at home.

You’ll notice immediate shape change, but final results emerge as swelling subsides over several weeks to months, often around 3–6 months post-operation.

Yes, temporary numbness around the nipples and areola is common after male breast reduction surgery. Sensation usually returns within 3–6 months. Permanent loss of sensation is rare.

Risks of male breast reduction surgery may include swelling, fluid buildup (seroma), contour irregularities, minor infection, hematoma, or temporary numbness. Choosing an experienced cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Chandra significantly reduces these risks.

Yes, it's common to combine male breast reduction with contouring procedures like abdominal liposuction or areola resizing for a more balanced result.

Choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with proven experience in gynecomastia surgery. At Radiant Roots, we recommend reviewing before-and-after photos, patient testimonials, and confirming the surgeon’s expertise in both liposuction and gland excision techniques to ensure the best results.

Gynecomastia arises from hormonal imbalance (high estrogen/testosterone), medications, obesity, aging or medical conditions; surgery corrects persistent tissue not resolved by lifestyle changes.

While gynecomastia often resolves by age 18, male breast reduction is typically recommended once breast development stabilizes—usually after puberty—and the individual understands the procedure.

Driving is generally safe after 24–48 hours, once you're no longer under sedation and feel comfortable turning without pain.

At Radiant Roots, male breast reduction is performed with patient comfort in mind. Most patients experience mild discomfort, which is easily managed with prescribed pain medications. Swelling and bruising are common during the first 1–2 weeks and gradually subside.

Light walking can start within a few days. Avoid upper-body workouts for 3–4 weeks. Chest-specific exercises typically resume around 4–6 weeks based on recovery.

Gynecomastia is glandular tissue from hormonal imbalance, often requiring excision, while pseudogynecomastia involves fat only and may be managed with liposuction alone.

Bodybuilder gynecomastia is often caused by hormonal imbalance—especially due to anabolic steroid or testosterone use—which leads to excess estrogen converting to glandular breast tissue that cannot be reduced with exercise alone.

Yes, male breast reduction surgery effectively removes steroid-induced gynecomastia by excising the dense glandular tissue behind the nipple, which cannot be eliminated through fat burning or chest workouts.

Yes, bodybuilder gynecomastia can be more complex due to dense gland tissue and tight skin. At Radiant Roots, our experienced surgeons perform precise gland excision and sculpting techniques to achieve minimal scarring and a well-defined chest contour tailored for athletic builds.

Yes, continuing steroid use or unregulated testosterone therapy after male breast reduction surgery can lead to recurrence. For long-lasting results, it’s essential to manage hormone levels responsibly and avoid anabolic substances post-surgery.

Gynecomastia surgery in Mangalore typically costs between ₹60,000 to ₹1,10,000. The exact cost depends on the complexity of the case, the surgeon’s experience, and whether the procedure involves liposuction, gland excision, or both.

Fat grafting involves removing fat from one part of your body (like the thighs or abdomen), processing it, and injecting it into another area needing volume—like the face, hands, or breasts. It’s a natural solution using your body’s own fat, offering long-lasting and subtle enhancement.

Fat grafting is semi-permanent. Some of the fat is reabsorbed by your body within the first few months, but the rest usually stays for years. With proper care and a healthy lifestyle, results can last long and look very natural over time.

Yes, fat grafting is a great alternative to dermal fillers for those looking for more natural, long-term results. It restores lost volume in cheeks, under-eyes, or temples using your own fat, reducing the need for repeat filler injections.

You’ll likely experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for a few days. Most people return to light activities in a week, but full recovery may take 2–4 weeks. Final results are visible once swelling fully subsides.

Fat is typically harvested from areas with excess fat, such as the abdomen, thighs, flanks, or buttocks. It’s gently removed through liposuction, purified, and then injected into the treatment area with precision.

Yes, when performed by an experienced provider, fat grafting is considered safe and effective for facial rejuvenation. Since it uses your own tissue, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is extremely low.

Usually, 50–70% of the transferred fat survives in the long term. Your body naturally absorbs some of it in the first few months, so your surgeon may overfill slightly to account for that.

Absolutely. Many patients combine fat grafting with facelifts, liposuction, or even breast augmentation. It complements other cosmetic procedures by improving volume and enhancing natural contours.

It depends on your goals. Fat grafting offers a more natural look and feel without foreign materials. However, implants provide more dramatic volume changes. Your surgeon will help you decide based on your body type and desired result.

It depends on your goals. Fat grafting offers a more natural look and feel without foreign materials. However, implants provide more dramatic volume changes. Your surgeon will help you decide based on your body type and desired result.

Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and temporary numbness. Rare risks include infection, fat cysts, or uneven results. Choosing a qualified professional significantly reduces complications and ensures safer outcomes.

Most fat grafting sessions last between 1–3 hours, depending on the area being treated and the amount of fat transferred. This includes harvesting, purifying, and reinjecting the fat with precision.

If you gain weight, the transferred fat can also expand, just like fat elsewhere in your body. This is why maintaining a stable weight is crucial to preserving the appearance of your fat grafting results.

If you have areas of volume loss and enough donor fat elsewhere, you’re likely a good candidate. A consultation helps determine whether fat grafting or another option fits your body and goals best.

Initial swelling will make results look fuller than the final outcomes. After 2–4 weeks, swelling subsides, and you’ll start seeing more accurate contours. Full results become clear within 3–6 months post-procedure.

Yes, fat grafting can improve acne scars by restoring volume beneath the skin and boosting collagen production. It's often used alongside microneedling or laser therapy for more effective texture improvement.

Most patients report mild to moderate discomfort, not pain. Local anesthesia and sedation are used during the procedure. You may feel sore at the donor and treated sites for a few days afterward, similar to muscle soreness.

You’ll be advised to stop smoking, avoid blood thinners, and maintain a healthy diet. Proper hydration and avoiding alcohol before your procedure will also help with healing and fat survival rates.

Not always. Small-volume grafts can be done with local anesthesia and sedation. For larger procedures, like breast fat grafting, general anesthesia may be recommended for comfort and safety.

Fat cells that survive the initial healing process generally stay in place permanently. However, drastic weight changes can affect the volume in treated areas, so stability in weight is important for lasting results.

Yes, you can have multiple fat grafting sessions. This may be necessary if you desire more volume or if your body absorbed more fat than expected after the first treatment.

Dr. Chandra customizes every fat grafting plan with precise mapping and advanced purification techniques, which improve fat survival and create balanced, natural-looking results. His hands-on approach ensures both safety and artistry in every session.

At Radiant Roots, facial fat grafting is performed with a blend of cutting-edge techniques and personalized care. Their team uses micro-fat injections for smooth texture and offers post-care support for faster healing and optimal results.

You should avoid strenuous workouts for at least 2–3 weeks post-procedure. Gentle walks are fine after a few days, but give your body time to heal and allow the fat cells to establish a blood supply.

Yes, fat grafting is an effective way to fill under-eye hollows and dark circles. The natural fat adds volume, reduces shadows, and rejuvenates tired-looking eyes without the need for synthetic fillers.

Costs can vary based on the area treated, the amount of fat used, and the clinic's expertise. On average, facial fat grafting starts around ₹1,00,000 to ₹2,30,000, while larger body areas may cost more. Always ask for a personalized quote after consultation.

A breast lift (mastopexy) removes excess skin, reshapes breast tissue, and elevates the nipple to restore a firmer, more youthful breast position.

Ideal candidates are women with sagging breasts due to age, pregnancy, weight loss, or genetics, who are in good health and not planning major weight changes.

Most breast lift surgeries last 1–3 hours, depending on technique and individual anatomy.

Results can last 6–10 years, but aging, gravity, and lifestyle factors may lead to gradual sagging over time.

Common techniques include crescent, periareolar (donut), vertical (lollipop), and anchor (inverted‑T) lifts, chosen based on sag severity.

Temporary numbness is common; sensation typically returns within months, though rare cases may cause permanent change.

At Radiant Roots, risks are minimal under expert care, but may include scarring, asymmetry, infection, or temporary numbness—most resolve with proper post-op care and guidance.

Scars are permanent but fade over 12–24 months. Surgeons place them in natural folds or around the areola for minimal visibility.

Recovery typically takes 1–2 weeks. Under Dr. Chandra’s personalized post-op protocols at Radiant Roots, most patients resume daily activities comfortably within that period.

Light activities like walking may start after 1–2 weeks; heavy lifting and chest exercise should wait until about 6 weeks.

Yes, wear a supportive compression or surgical bra for 6–8 weeks to reduce swelling and support healing.

Most can breastfeed afterward, but some may have difficulty due to altered nipple position or reduced gland tissue.

Wait at least 3–6 months after stopping breastfeeding to allow breasts to settle before surgery.

Yes. Many patients choose breast augmentation or reduction with a lift for volume adjustment or contour improvement.

Most patients return to office work in 1–2 weeks. Physically demanding jobs may require up to 4–6 weeks.

A breast lift does not impair mammogram accuracy. It’s important to schedule a new baseline mammogram about 6 months post-op.

Pregnancy and weight fluctuations can alter breast shape and may necessitate revision surgery later.

Yes, Dr. Chandra customizes breast lifts to improve shape and alignment, offering natural-looking symmetry tailored to each patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Drains are generally not required, but some surgeons may use them in specific cases to reduce fluid buildup.

Moderate soreness, swelling, and tightness are common; most patients transition from prescription to OTC pain relief within a few days.

Sleeping on your back for 2–4 weeks is advised to avoid pressure on healing incisions.

Most swelling resolves within 2–3 weeks, with continued improvement up to 6 weeks.

Light showers are usually permitted after 48 hours; avoid direct pressure on incisions and follow your surgeon’s instructions.

Yes, lifting and reshaping heavy or drooping breasts may reduce strain on the back and shoulders.

Depending on region and provider, a lift can be as costly or slightly more expensive than augmentation, and combining them increases cost accordingly.

Breast lifts are considered cosmetic and typically not covered. Rarely, lifts may be reimbursed if medically necessary due to skin issues or pain.

There’s no strict age limit, but women should wait until breast development is complete (usually 18+), and ideally after breastfeeding.

Achieving a stable, healthy weight before surgery helps improve results and reduce risks.

Non-surgical methods like thread lifts or radio frequency offer minimal improvement and cannot replicate surgical lift results.

Ask about the surgeon’s experience, techniques used, anesthesia type, scar management, recovery plan, revision policy, and cost breakdown.

A beard transplant is a cosmetic procedure where healthy hair follicles are taken from a donor area—usually the back of your scalp—and implanted into patchy or thin areas of the beard. Once healed, these follicles grow natural facial hair permanently.

Men with patchy beard growth caused by genetics, scarring, or hair loss conditions may be good candidates. The key requirement is having enough healthy donor hair on the scalp to achieve the desired beard density.

Yes. Transplanted hair follicles establish their own blood supply and grow like normal beard hair. Once they settle, they continue to grow naturally for a lifetime.

A full beard transplant typically requires 2,000–3,000 grafts, while smaller procedures like sideburn or goatee enhancement may need far fewer. The exact number depends on your current growth and desired beard style.

Yes. Since the hair is taken from your own body—usually the scalp—it closely matches in color and growth pattern. Some minor trimming may be needed to match texture perfectly.

Absolutely. During consultation, you can decide on the beard style, density, and outline with your surgeon to suit your face shape.

The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain. Mild soreness or swelling may occur afterward, which resolves in a few days.

Initial growth starts in 3–4 months, with full results visible around 8–12 months.

Most patients return to non-strenuous activities within 2–3 days. Redness and scabbing usually fade in about a week.

Modern techniques like FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) leave tiny dot scars in the donor area, which are barely visible once healed.

Yes. Beard transplants are often used to camouflage acne scars, surgical scars, or patchy areas caused by injury.

No special care beyond regular beard grooming is needed once fully healed. You can trim, shave, or style as desired.

It’s best to wait at least 2–3 weeks before shaving to avoid disturbing healing grafts. After that, normal shaving is safe.

Yes, when performed by an experienced surgeon. The hair grows in the natural direction and density to mimic your real beard.

In India, the cost typically ranges from ₹50,000 to ₹2,00,000, depending on the number of grafts and the clinic’s expertise.

In India, the cost typically ranges from ₹50,000 to ₹2,00,000, depending on the number of grafts and the clinic’s expertise.

If scalp donor hair is insufficient, hair can sometimes be taken from the chest or other body areas, though texture may differ slightly.

Yes, it’s normal for transplanted hairs to shed in the first 2–4 weeks. This is temporary—new hair regrowth follows in a few months.

It usually takes 4–8 hours, depending on the number of grafts and whether it’s a partial or full beard.

Yes. Multiple facial areas can be transplanted in one session for a complete transformation.

Possible risks include infection, swelling, minor scarring, or uneven growth—but these are rare with skilled surgeons.

Most face rejuvenation treatments have little downtime. Fillers and Botox allow quick recovery, while peels or lasers may need a few days to weeks, depending on depth and intensity

Face rejuvenation procedures are generally comfortable. Numbing creams or local anesthesia are used where needed. Mild stinging or pressure may occur, but usually subsides quickly after treatment.

This depends on your goals. Fillers and Botox show results in one session, while PRP, peels, and laser resurfacing may require multiple sessions for optimal results.

Face rejuvenation may include dermal fillers, Botox, PRP, skin boosters, laser resurfacing, and chemical peels. A dermatologist designs a personalized plan depending on your skin concerns and goals.

Results vary: Botox lasts 4–6 months, fillers 9–18 months, PRP 6–12 months, and peels or lasers longer with maintenance. Periodic sessions sustain the best results.

There’s no strict age limit, but your overall health and skin quality matter more than age. According to our expert cosmetic surgeon in Mangalore, Dr. Chandra, the ideal age to undergo a liposuction treatment is around 17-50 years of age.  carefully evaluates older patients to ensure the procedure is safe and beneficial.

Liposuction can help define abdominal muscles by removing surface fat, but it can’t build muscle or substitute for core workouts. Tummy Tuck is more effective for a more sculpted, flat stomach.

Liposuction involves small incisions—usually just a few millimeters long—to insert the cannula. These are placed in discreet areas and typically heal into faint, barely visible scars over time. At our clinic in Mangalore, Radiant Roots, we use advanced tools to minimize scarring and provide aftercare guidance to support optimal healing and skin recovery.

Liposuction itself isn’t painful because it’s performed under local or general anesthesia. However, after the procedure, you may feel soreness and tightness—similar to muscle soreness after a workout. The entire treated area might feel bruised, though this depends on if the treated area has too many nerve endings. Discomfort is usually manageable with prescribed pain relief and tends to improve within a few days to a week. Our patients who have had liposuction have shared they never felt any intense pain.

Light walking is encouraged within a few days, but intense workouts should be avoided for 2–4 weeks. Dr. Chandra typically clears patients for full exercise once swelling subsides and healing is well underway.

Yes. Combining procedures like Botox with fillers or PRP with skin boosters often maximizes results, offering efficiency, balance, and natural enhancement in fewer visits.

Yes. When performed by skilled experts, face rejuvenation delivers natural, youthful results without over-correction. Radiant Roots follows a balanced approach to enhance features while maintaining facial harmony.

Yes. Face rejuvenation is popular before events. Plan sessions a few weeks ahead to allow treatments like fillers, Botox, or lasers to settle for flawless, glowing skin.

Yes. With customized protocols, sensitive skin can benefit from gentle peels, boosters, or mild laser treatments. Patch tests are often performed before starting for safety.

Yes. Treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, fractional lasers, and PRP improve mild acne scars, roughness, and enlarged pores by stimulating collagen and resurfacing the skin.

Yes, when appropriate lasers and settings are chosen. Experienced dermatologists customize parameters to avoid pigmentation risks and deliver safe, effective outcomes.

Most injectable and laser treatments are avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Gentle facials or basic skincare may continue, but consult your dermatologist for safe options.

Botox relaxes facial muscles to smooth wrinkles, while fillers restore lost volume in areas like cheeks and lips. Both complement each other for natural, youthful results.

Skin boosters hydrate and plump skin from within, improving glow, elasticity, and fine lines. They are ideal for dry, dull, or crepey skin needing subtle rejuvenation.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) uses your blood’s growth factors to naturally stimulate collagen, reduce fine lines, and enhance skin texture and radiance over several weeks.

Blepharoplasty is eyelid surgery that reshapes droopy lids or under-eye puffiness, restoring a youthful, refreshed look. It improves both appearance and function, helping patients achieve brighter, more open eyes with long-lasting results.

People seek blepharoplasty when sagging lids or puffiness make them look older, tired, or affect their vision. The procedure rejuvenates appearance, restores comfort, and enhances self-confidence by addressing structural eyelid concerns effectively.

A blepharoplasty typically takes 60–180 minutes, depending on whether upper, lower, or both eyelids are treated. Complex cases may require additional time, but precision and safety remain the highest priorities throughout surgery.

Recovery usually involves swelling, mild bruising, and sensitivity for the first week. Patients are advised to rest, use cold compresses, and attend follow-up visits for safe healing and optimal long-term surgical outcomes.

Yes—upper eyelid, lower eyelid, and combined blepharoplasty procedures exist. Choice depends on anatomy, concerns, and goals, ensuring precise correction without over-treatment for the most natural, balanced facial appearance possible.

Risks may include temporary dry eyes, bruising, mild discomfort, or slight eyelid asymmetry. More serious complications are rare when performed by skilled surgeons using refined techniques and proper preoperative evaluation.

Alternatives include dermal fillers, laser resurfacing, and radiofrequency treatments, which address mild sagging or puffiness. These non-surgical methods provide subtle improvements but lack the dramatic, lasting results of surgical eyelid correction.

Blepharoplasty corrects sagging upper lids, puffy under-eyes, and drooping that obstructs vision. It improves facial balance, restores alertness, and lightens the gaze, creating a more youthful, rested, and natural-looking appearance.

Those with uncontrolled medical conditions, severe dry eye, bleeding disorders, or unrealistic expectations may not be suitable candidates. Careful assessment ensures only safe, well-prepared patients undergo this corrective eyelid procedure.

Gentle face washing, avoiding the incision area, is generally safe after 48–72 hours. Patients should use mild cleansers and avoid rubbing or pressing the eyelids until stitches are removed and healing progresses.

Stitch removal is usually quick and causes minimal discomfort. Surgeons often use fine sutures and soothing techniques to keep the process comfortable, with most patients describing only mild pressure or tingling.

Fat removed or repositioned typically does not return. However, future aging or weight changes may alter eyelid appearance. Long-lasting results depend on maintaining a stable weight and following proper post-surgery skin care.

This refers to persistent swelling, tightness, or eyelid asymmetry following surgery. It is uncommon and usually resolves with time, supportive care, or minor corrective procedures under professional guidance if symptoms persist.

Recovery progresses from swelling and bruising in the first week, stitch removal around day 5–7, visible improvement within 2–3 weeks, and final results typically seen after 6–8 weeks of healing.

Stitches are generally removed within 5–7 days. Placement in natural eyelid creases or inner eyelids minimizes visible scarring, allowing most patients to resume normal activities soon after removal.**

Eyelashes usually remain unaffected and continue growing normally. Rarely, temporary shedding may occur from surgical manipulation or swelling, but lashes typically regrow naturally once healing is complete without permanent loss.

Stitches are necessary if incisions extend near the lash line or deeper tissue adjustments are made. The surgeon carefully evaluates eyelids during surgery to decide whether sutures are essential for proper healing.

Best practices include keeping the head elevated, applying cold compresses during the first days, avoiding salty foods, and not rubbing eyes. Following prescribed medications supports faster healing and reduces swelling.

Preparation involves medical evaluations, pausing blood thinners, quitting smoking, and arranging assistance post-surgery. Radiant Roots customizes preparation plans, ensuring every patient approaches surgery safely and with confidence.

Good candidates include those with sagging lids, puffiness, or vision obstruction caused by eyelid droop. Radiant Roots ensures thorough screening, confirming you are healthy, realistic, and ready for the procedure.

Costs vary by eyelid type, surgeon expertise, anesthesia, and facility. Radiant Roots offers transparent, customized quotes after consultation, ensuring patients understand expenses clearly without hidden charges before proceeding with surgery.

Blepharoplasty rarely causes vision changes or loss, usually due to hemorrhage or orbital complications; immediate medical attention is critical if vision blurs, severe pain, or increasing swelling occur. Radiant Roots monitors closely.

Before blepharoplasty, surgeons evaluate visual acuity, visual fields, tear function, eyelid position, and medical photos to plan surgery precisely. Radiant Roots performs comprehensive ocular assessments to tailor safe, vision-preserving blepharoplasty plans.

Blepharoplasty treats excess skin (dermatochalasis) but not true ptosis caused by a weak levator muscle. Ptosis requires specific repair, often combined with blepharoplasty. Radiant Roots assesses and plans both procedures when necessary.

After blepharoplasty, most patients may resume contact lens wear after about one to two weeks, and gentle eye makeup after suture removal (usually 7–10 days). Radiant Roots provides personalized timing and safety tips.

After blepharoplasty, seek urgent care for sudden vision changes, severe unrelieved pain, rapidly increasing swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or fever. Radiant Roots provides emergency contact and immediate assessment to address complications promptly.

Smoking impairs wound healing and raises infection and scarring risks after blepharoplasty; blood thinners increase bleeding risk. Radiant Roots instructs stopping smoking and managing medications pre-op to optimize safety and recovery.

Choose a surgeon experienced in blepharoplasty—ideally an oculoplastic or facial plastic surgeon with hospital privileges, documented before/after results, and good patient reviews. Radiant Roots’ team offers credentials, case galleries, and thorough consultations.

Yes. As skin loses collagen and elasticity over time, old acne scars may appear deeper or more visible. Early intervention helps maintain smoother skin as you age.

Mild discoloration may fade over time, but deeper scars usually need professional treatment such as lasers, microneedling, or chemical peels.

Common options include fractional laser resurfacing, microneedling, chemical peels, dermal fillers, TCA CROSS, and subcision. A dermatologist may combine several methods for best results.

Yes. Fractional CO₂ and Er:YAG lasers stimulate collagen production, smooth skin texture, and improve scar depth. Results depend on scar type and skin tone.
