The Skin Whisperers

Kiran Sethi Lohia

Why you should know her: You cannot start a successful skin practice without a great amount of energy and grit and Dr Kiran Sethi Lohia, medical director, Isya Aesthetics, has both in spades. Born and raised in New York, Lohia followed in her mum’s footsteps when she decided to be a doctor. Opt for her famous NY Facial, which is a triple combo laser facial that she says literally makes you look poreless. Another popular treatment is her Neo facial, which lends a glow while zapping errant zits.

What she swears by: Don’t run down lasers when you’re around her as the notion that they are dangerous is possibly the biggest skincare myth she would like to dispel. “Lasers are simply light. When used correctly, they can make you look and feel beautiful. Also, lasers can only go into the skin, they can’t go any further. Your skin is a highly effective barrier, so your organs won’t be affected, I promise,” she is quick to reassure.

What’s her own secret to great skin: “I really believe in wellness — your mind, your body and your soul should be optimised to be truly beautiful. Some laser facials will definitely look great, but for a truly long-lasting, envy-inducing glow, a great mindset, healthy diet, and a good exercise routine go a long way!” she vouches.
