Hair Care Clinic in Chandigarh for Hair Loss Treatment

Hi All,

We are happy to get the feedback about this blog from you all and this post is for Mr. Mukesh Kumar who asked us about a review for a Hair Care Clinic in Chandigarh. Mukesh is suffering from hair loss from a long time and he now want to get medical treatment to control hair fall. I already gave him some of the tips to control hair loss like:

1. Increase intake of Amla in daily diet. Amla is known as Indian Gooseberry in English and is very good for controlling hair fall. You can take amla in any form like eat as a fruit, pickle, muraba, candy etc. Amla has properties to turn grey hair black as well. 
2. Start Yoga: Yoga has great health benefits. Yoga heals the body naturally and you can prevent hair loss by Yoga as well. You can find particular Yoga to control hair fall by searching online. 
3.  Reduce stress: Stress is also a reason for hair loss so one must keep stress in control. 

Mukesh was particularly interested about Dr. Batras Clinic. No doubt that everyone in the country knows about Dr. Batra hair & skin care clinic as there is strong marketing of the clinic. Even they have tied up with large corporate s in the area, where employees can get free consultation or some discounts on various treatment offered by Dr. Batra's Clinic in Chandigarh and Panchkula.  

Since I never been to Dr. Batra's clinic for treatment and also none of people in my contract list, social network contacts have been there for treatment so I hesitated to recommend the clinic to my friend o anyone else. However I'm adding details of few hair care clinics in Chandigarh that can be considered for treatment of hair loss or other hair related problems:

The lady over the phone explained me a bit and then scheduled a free consultation for Salt Clinic in Chandigarh. I got an immediate confirmation about the appointment by sms and got reminder one day prior to the appointment. This was something great.

First visit to Salt Clinic in Chandigarh:

I visited the Salt clinic for my first free consultation and I was amused to see the clinic. The staff is very polite and they asked me to fill up a form after that I had a session with the doctor who explained me the benefits of the Salt room therapy, how it works, where the salt is taken from. She asked me about my medical condition and then explained how salt therapy can improve my condition. She advised around 9-15 sessions that will last one hour each.

Dr Malika Sachdev - Skin Care Specialist in Chandigarh

This post is regarding a patients (Mine) experience at one of the skin care clinic in Chandigarh. The clinic name is "Skin, Cosmetology and Laser Clinic" and is managed by Doctor Maleeka Sachdev. Dr. Malleka has done MD in Skin from PGI Chandigarh. She is consultant dermatologist and cosmetologist.

Dr. Malika Sachdev is highly expereienced skin specialist and my experinece of skin treatment with her was great. She is soft spoken doctor that listended to my skin problem, analysed it and then explained the condition and treatment in full detail. Surprisingly my skin conditions got healed quickly which no other skin doctor in Chandigarh was able to treat. I've visited many skin care clinics in Chandigarh and Mohali without any positive results. One of my friend referred me to "Skin, Cosmetology and Laser Clinic". Clinic is located at Sector 18C, Chandigarh and is opposite to the famous Tagore theater.

However I had bad experience with the reception and help staff at the clinic. They are not at all polite in speaking and have very unprofessional attitude towards the work. Space is another issue in the clinic and you might have to stand in the ground floor the the first floor to wait for your turn to be examined by the doctor.

Thus I'd give 5 star rating to the Dcotor. Thanks for your help doctor.

Surrogacy in India - Myths about India Surrogacy

Recently Indian health ministry changed the surrogacy laws, making unmarried couples and same sex partners unable to get surrogacy services in India.  You can read more about changed in Indian surrogacy laws at http://medical-tourism-guidance.blogspot.com/2013/03/medical-tourism-for-surrogacy-in-india.html

In this post I am going to tell you about some myths about surrogacy in India.  I’d love to hear your comments regarding the myths.

Myths about India Surrogacy

Surrogates Exploitation in India: This has been true in the initial years of surrogacy but its not true nowadays. Indian surrogacy laws are very clearly defined now and they are to make sure that there is no exploitation of the surrogates. All the surrogates have their own child so they are already aware of what’s involved during their life as a surrogate.  Moreover surrogates are well educated and capable of taking their independent decision just like the surrogates in any other country like US, UK, Australia etc.

Surrogates are from poor family and uneducated: Its not true and above all the couple is shown the full profile of the surrogate, so nothing like he being from poor family or uneducated.

 In case you have any doubts regarding Indian surrogacy practices and laws feel free to get in touch by comment form and we'll respond accordingly.

Medical Tourism for Surrogacy in India gets setback

Surrogacy in India was very popular among childless couples from various countries like US, Canada etc. For many surrogacy clinics in India has been earning huge profits by surrogacy medical tourism. However a recent directive from the home ministry has caused setbacks for such clinics and medical tourism companies that used to send patients to India for surrogacy.  Let me clarify what this directive includes. As per the new directive India has banned surrogacy for gay couples. This means that single males or gay couples cannot get the surrogacy services now. The new directive also bans married couples who have been married less than two years from getting an Indian surrogate to give birth to their child.

The worth of the surrogacy business in India is estimated more than 180 to 200 crore Indian rupees. Hyderabad, Delhi, Mumbai and Gujarat cities in India were the top choice for surrogacy among foreign couples until this new directive.

Abroad many couples live together without getting married legally as marriage can be an expensive affair, so this will cause a further setback to the industry.  However laws are made to be changes later so we can expect government to make some changes in the law. We’ll keep you updated about any news on this.
