Mumbai: Dr. Rinky Kapoor, the celebrated cosmetologist who needs no introduction when it comes to skin treatments and plastic surgery is universally recognised as one of the pioneers in skin lightening using Nd YAG laser and glutathione injections.

The skin lightening and skin whitening laser procedures offered by Dr. Kapoor help to lighten the body’s colour tone considerably. They reduce the melanin concentration and give the skin a lighter complexion. Using glutathione is a part of the process. It is a tripeptide molecule found in mammals and has strong antioxidant properties. It is especially useful for preventing the damage to the skin caused by oxidation. Its major function is to prevent the synthesis of melanin, which is the reason behind skin darkening. It also protects the skin from harmful UV rays and other internal stressors that stimulate the growth of free radicals.

Dr. Kapoor uses glutathione with other agents like vitamin C to enhance its absorption. She uses molecules such as N-acetyl cysteine with vitamin C to boost its levels. The doctor recommends the intravenous mode of application, i.e. injecting the glutathione as it is the most effective way to achieve effective absorption of the chemical and hence the most preferred one in the industry.

The Nd YAG laser used by Dr. Kapoor discharges a high energy light on the affected area and removes the damaged skin. Along with glutathione, the treatment causes the skin to clear out and generate new skin cells to replace the old ones. The laser penetrates deeper layers of the skin without causing damage to the upper layers. It supports the production of collagens and vital proteins that are necessary and favourable for a younger looking healthy skin.

In addition, to Nd YAG Laser, Dr. Kapoor also has an expertise in diode hair removal laser, pulse dye laser and intense pulse light therapy, laser peel and fractional lasers including Pixel. Her laser expertise encompasses skin tightening, hair removal, skin rejuvenation, scar management and tattoo removal, among others.

Dr. Kapoor offers her expertise at The Esthetic Clinic chain in Mumbai, which she co-founded with leading plastic surgeon, Dr. Debraj Shome. She is also a consultant dermatologist at Fortis Hospital and a Visiting Faculty in Dermatology, Lasers & Dermato-Surgery at the Stanford Medical School, US. Dr. Kapoor has won numerous awards for her work over the years including ‘The Most Valuable and Admired Cosmetic Dermatologist in India’ and ‘Best Dermatologist in India’.
