Do you know what are the 5 most popular cosmetic skin treatments in Pakistan currently?

If your skin has started to experience fine lines, acne scars, age spots, or other issues you would like to fix, then cosmetic skin treatments may solve your problems. They usually need little recovery time, however, their price and how well they work varies from person to person.

Here are some of the most popular and current cosmetic skin treatments available in Pakistan:

Chemical Peel

Chemical peels treat wrinkles, acne scars, textured skin, age spots, and blemishes. Treatment involves using a chemical solution to remove damaged skin. Chemical peels range from light to medium.

A light chemical peel improves the texture of your skin and reduces the appearance of fine wrinkles. The results are subtle but improve with repeated treatments. If you have a medium chemical peel, treated skin will be noticeably smoother.

The fee of the procedure in Pakistan varies from PKR 500-3000 depending upon the doctor’s experience and qualification.

Botox injections

Botox injections are used primarily for the reduction of facial wrinkles. Doctors use a thin needle to inject small amounts of Botox into muscles in the face. The procedure takes nearly 15 minutes and does not need anesthesia or recovery time. Results normally last several months.

The cost of Botox injections in Pakistan ranges from PKR 13,000 to 20,000 depending upon the skin condition, treatment area, and proficiency of doctors.

Dermal Fillers

The procedure includes injecting fillers into the skin. Fillers can plump up cheeks or lips and can also soften creases, deep folds, and wrinkles. The injections generally produce immediate results.

Most dermal fillers are temporary and disappear in 6 to 18 months. They are very common, especially for under-eye bags, crow feet, and fine lines on the face.

The cost of dermal fillers in Pakistan is between PKR 15,000 and 25,000 per 1 ml injection.

HIFU

High-intensity focused ultrasound is a relatively new cosmetic treatment for skin tightening. It uses ultrasound energy to stimulate the production of collagen, which results in smooth skin. People can see results in a few months after treatment, without the risks associated with surgery.

The cost of HIFU in Pakistan ranges from PKR 100,000 to 200,000.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing requires small, pulsating beams of light to treat uneven skin tone, wrinkles, scars, and age spots. It removes the outer layer of skin while heating deeper layers. It triggers the production of collagen, which helps the skin look smoother and firmer.

The treatment targets deep wrinkles or scars. However, side effects include redness and sensitivity to sunlight for several months. Results can last for years.

The procedure cost between PKR 5000 to 15000 per session depending upon the area of treatment.
