Experts Advise Against Last-Minute Skin Treatments; Recommend Gentle Ubtan Recipes for Diwali Glow
With Diwali approaching, many seek radiant skin for festivities. Dermatologist Dr. Sonali Kohli advises against last-minute intensive treatments like deep chemical peels, lasers, and microneedling due to their recovery time, recommending planning weeks ahead. Alternatively, gentle, traditional homemade ubtan recipes using natural ingredients like besan, turmeric, and sandalwood offer a safe, mild way to brighten and soften skin shortly before celebrations. Both approaches emphasize skin safety and realistic expectations for festive glow.
