International Board of Cosmetic Dermatologist (IBCD) of United Kingdom Chaired by Dr Arvinder Singh

A New Era of Clinical Cosmetology and Aesthetics Training by getting trained as Cosmetic Dermatologist and Aesthetic Physician

As the market of clinical cosmetology and aesthetics is growing rapidly but quality training in India is lacking to match international standards. The market size of clinical cosmetology in India is shooting above billion dollars and CAGR is reported in double digits.

In the booming cosmetology industry, there is lot of scope for qualified doctors to get trained and earn lakhs of rupees per month. Unfortunately, the seats of Dermatology and Plastic Surgeries are limited and are quite expensive and one has to pay capitation fee in crores or has to get in top ranks in PG entrance exams to get the seats.

One has to understand it clearly that when someone choose Dermatology as a branch then around three years are invested along with large corpus of money. Even after investment of time and money, branch of Dermatology is primarily focused on skin diseases and cosmetology is just a small portion of it. After completing post graduation in Dermatology, one has to learn separately the field of cosmetic dermatology. Even if someone gets enrolled in Plastic Surgery, one has to choose long career of completing surgery as specialization and then opt for Plastic Surgery for specialization. Here focus is again not on cosmetology but cosmetic and aesthetic procedure forms small part of curriculum. In this way lot of energy and money is wasted to pursue this career if one wants to pursue clinical cosmetology and aesthetic medicine as a career.

Now a new era is getting started in India and Asian countries to pursue specialized courses in Cosmetic Dermatology, Clinical Cosmetology and Aesthetic Medicine as per international standards by International Board of Cosmetic Dermatologist (IBCD), London, United Kingdom. The course can be completed just in six months and one has to invest only less than 1 lakh rupees to get trained as per international standards and get board certification.

The board consists of world-renowned Dermatologists, Plastic surgeons, Aesthetic Surgeons, Cosmetic Dermatologists, Clinical Cosmetologists and Aesthetic Practitioner to provide high standards of education, training and assessment in field of Dermatology, Clinical Cosmetology and Aesthetics.

The unique pedagogy includes standardized mix of on-line, off line classrooms and extensive hands-on experience by way of flexi learning to impart best practices in field of Cosmetic Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine.

These courses will be offered to registered medical practitioner which includes MBBS, MD, BDS, MDS, Ayush (BHMS, BAMS, BUMS). The courses will be launched shortly in month of April, 2023 and registration of courses will start in last week of February, 2023.

Why Laser Hair Removal?

Traditional hair removal is time consuming and, in many cases, frustrating. Traditional methods of hair removal like waxing, shaving and tweezing are effective for removing hair, but only temporarily. LASER hair removal is effective, efficient and provides a long-term solution for getting rid of unwanted hair. LASER hair removal can be performed on any part of the body that has unwanted hair. Summing up the benefits of laser hair removal, we can conclude that it

  • is a permanent solution to unwanted hair
  • rejuvenates you skin
  • lightens pigmented areas
  • eliminates ingrown hair
  • offers results from the very first session
  • provides more youthful appearance

Here are some salient benefits of LASER hair removal

1. LASER Hair Removal is Quick

Laser hair removal treatments are much quicker than you may expect.

2. LASER Hair Removal is Economical and Saves Money

When you get laser hair removal treatments done, you eliminate the need for endless amounts of razors, shaving cream, waxing appointments, etc. Laser hair removal is financially smarter, takes less time and will give you an overall longer lasting result.

3. Eliminate Ingrown Hairs

It is the best solution to make sure you don’t suffer from a pesky ingrown hair and risk having to have it removed. It is also a great option for people who have sensitive skin and have skin irritation after shaving or waxing.

4. Time Saving

With laser hair removal, you no longer have to spend time shaving or going to appointments to get the hair waxed. You also don’t have to worry about making mistakes and missing spots anymore. You will have clean-shaven skin.

5. Always Look Silky and Smooth

Unlike with waxing, where you have to keep hair in between sessions for proper removal, LASER Hair Removal keeps you silky and smooth.

 

Frequently Asked Questions – FAQs

  • What are the risks?

You can have laser hair removal treatment done over your lunch break, because there is no recovery time. The lasers do not remove skin, so there are very low risks.

  • Is It painful?

Laser hair removal with Soprano Titanium at Arth is painless.

  • How does the LASER remove the hair?

The lasers emit a light at a specific wavelength that will be absorbed by the pigment of the hair follicle without damaging the skin around it. The light is converted into heat energy, which then removes the hair follicle so that it will not produce more hair.

  • How many treatments are needed?

Typically, it will take six to eight treatments to achieve a full clear area, but there are certain people who only need four treatments.

  • How to Prepare for Laser Hair Removal

Before having laser hair removal done, you should check with your doctor to ensure you are a good candidate for the treatment. You should limit waxing, plucking and tweezing and electrolysis for six weeks before the treatment. The laser targets the roots of the hair, which are temporarily removed when you have them waxed or plucked.

  • Recovery

For the day or two after the treatment, your skin will look and feel sunburned. Moisturizers and cool compresses can help. Over the next month, the treated hair will fall out. Make sure to wear sunscreen for the following month to prevent temporary colour changes in the skin.

How ‘Rolling Hills’ redefined new-year party scenes in Udaipur? The founder answers!

All of us just embarked on the new journey of the year 2023 with resolutions, hopes, and to-do lists for this year. While all of us have our ways of welcoming a new year, a party comprising dance and music scenes is one of the best ways to begin a year on a celebratory note. Speaking of New Year’s Eve parties, ‘Rolling Hills’ is one event most of the ‘party-holics’ in town must have heard of.

Like its last four seasons, the ‘Rolling Hills’ concluded on a grand note, setting higher benchmarks for the next edition. We had a conversation with Dushyant Periwal, the man behind the idea of ‘Rolling Hills’, for a complete insight into the journey of ‘Rolling Hills’ as a pioneer of large-scale new year parties in Udaipur.

Dushyant Periwal
Dushyant Periwal: Founder & Chairman – WDNE, Curator of Rolling Hills

How did the idea of Rolling Hills begin?

We have been organizing large-scale New Year’s parties for almost a decade now. However, in 2018, we decided to gear up by commencing a dedicated, game-changing edition of the New Year’s Eve celebration to upscale the entertainment quotient and magnitude of the event. With this thought at the core, the idea of ‘Rolling Hills’ was born in 2018, which dwelled in the city’s largest music festival. The first edition of this ‘Rolling Hills’ music festival was held successfully in 2018, and since then, it has been a ‘never-look-behind’ experience for us.

How has the journey of Rolling Hills been to date?

The entire journey of Rolling Hills, since the first edition in 2018 and the most recent one in 2022, has only been an upscaling journey, with every edition becoming bigger and better with every passing year. The most recent one was the fifth edition of Rolling Hills, and it was the biggest one to date, amassing a jam-packed house at Royal Retreat resort.

How has Rolling Hills been instrumental in changing the party scenes in Udaipur?

Not long ago, Udaipur was known as a quaint little town, with little or negligible party scenes even on grand occasions like New Year’s Eve. With the venture of Rolling Hills, WDNE has been instrumental in uplifting the benchmarks of party culture, with every edition only becoming grander than the erstwhile edition. Apart from welcoming the residents of Udaipur, Rolling Hills also caught the attention of other cities of Rajasthan and nearby states, which has only added to the scale of the event.

What was this year’s edition of Rolling Hills all about?

The last edition in 2021 was graced by the presence of renowned DJ Aqeel. However, the 2022 edition just became a scaled-up event with ten artists putting up a two-day show at the Royal Retreat Resort. The lineup included DJ Lemon, DJ Nash, DJ Cyrus, DJ Tasnneem, DJ Hashtag, DJ Candice, BhuvIn, Mihir, DJ Veeshal and DJ Shilen Sharma.

We thank all these artists, along with the public gathered, for making this two-day fest a memorable experience while looking forward to the 2023 edition.

New Pandit Fireworks: The One-Stop Shop for Your Celebration

Ever imagined yourself being a part of a celebration without the blazing fireworks in the sky? Difficult, right? As a resident of the city of lakes, we are far away from this thought. All our events and functions happen with a bash and they include the best accessory – fireworks.

The most favoured celebration devices for us are crackers. They are used in celebrations all around the world. But they are most popular in India, where they are mostly used to signify the victory of good over evil.

Via: ThoughtCo

Whether it is about Diwali in the old city, a wedding procession across the city or even India winning a match, the sky above Udaipur sparkles with fireworks. And that is what makes us different from others. We never shy away from expressing our happiness!

And talking about festivities, we end up in December. This month is all about functions and festivals. Whether it is weddings, Christmas, New Year, or family get-togethers, we find ourselves in one celebration or the other.

But it seldom happens we find the crackers we are looking for. It becomes a huge problem when we have to settle for less. Here is where New Pandit Fireworks come into the picture.

About Crackers

A cracker is a type of firework. It is made up of a tube that contains explosive material and a fuse. When lit, the fuse will burn down to the explosive material and then ignite it, causing an explosion.

Crackers have been around for centuries and have been used in many cultures to celebrate different events. The cracker is a small firework that produces a loud bang when lit and is often used as a celebratory device.

Fireworks have been around for centuries. The earliest records of fireworks date back to 7th century China, but it is believed that some cultures had fireworks before this date. Fireworks were originally used for military purposes, but they became popular for celebrations in the 17th century.

About New Pandit Fireworks

New Pandit Fireworks is a one-stop solution for all your cracker needs during the time of festivals and special occasions. They have an array of crackers, from big to small for all age groups.

Initiated by Tushar Paliwal, New Pandit Fireworks has the vision to take your celebration a notch higher. With an idea that caters to all sorts of occasions, the company offers its services directly to customers as well as event planners.

For a customer, it is a retail shop from where one can buy small sparklers to big bombs. For an event planner, it becomes a complete shop for all services that include Pyrotechnics, SFX, Stage effect and entry fireworks and so much more.

Along with these, the team of Mr Tushar Paliwal also offers other equipment like CO2 guns, blowers, CO2 jets, blasters, fireballs and others. All these services become a core component of any event.

In the event management industry, SFX (special effects) can play a key role in creating a memorable and engaging experience for attendees. For example, at a wedding, SFX might include things like pyrotechnics, confetti cannons, or other types of visual effects that help to add excitement and energy to the event. At a concert, SFX might include lighting and sound effects that help to enhance the overall performance and create a more immersive experience for the audience. In both cases, SFX can help to create a sense of drama and spectacle, and can be used to complement and enhance other elements of the event, such as music or performances. Event planners and designers often work closely with SFX professionals to create custom effects that are tailored to the specific needs and goals of each event.

We have been seeing a variety of activities that happen at any celebration that add to the visual appeal. And, believe it or not, we have become too used to such endeavours that imagining a big event without these becomes difficult.

The rising importance of fireworks

The recent era is all about creativity and we all have seen it in multiple weddings. Modern-day celebrations are about going to the extremes of uniqueness and bringing out the best result.


Being the show-stoppers of today’s weddings, birthdays, and private parties, pyrotechnics are the most popular. Even if they happen for a fraction of the time, they create a visual we can never forget. New Pandit Fireworks specialises in offering that wow factor to their special day.
Even when we speak about SFX, CO2 Blowers, colour blasters, and others, they play an equally important role.

Why choose New Pandit Fireworks?

Fireworks are a great way to add some colour, sounds and excitement to any event. Fireworks are also perfect for when you want to add some extra spice to your celebration. And New Pandit Fireworks are important because of the following reasons:

  1. The variety of crackers available for every occasion at New Pandit Fireworks is just amazing. Even if you have a small birthday get-together or a big wedding bash, you’ll find exactly what you are looking for.
  2. They offer a personalised touch to the services offered. They are all ready to serve you even at the venue in case you require any assistance.
  3. They play a major role in enhancing the special moments of your life and give you an album full of memories.

  5. They are just the best in town. They offer all year-round services and you can reach out to them anytime.

Fireworks are one of the most popular types of entertainment in the world. They have been a part of celebrations for centuries and are used to celebrate many events, including national holidays, religious festivals, weddings, and even birthdays.

So the next time you look for a grand celebration, you know you have to reach out to New Pandit Fireworks. You can check out their website here or call them on 8560081555.

Karwa Chauth And the History Behind It

Karwa Chauth is a one-day festival which is celebrated by all married women. On this festival, wives keep a fast from sunrise to moonrise for the safety and well-being of their husbands. Even though it is difficult to maintain a fast without drinking any water or eating anything throughout the day, devoted wives perform these rituals out of great love and respect for their husbands.

If we consider the term Karwa Chauth in its literal sense, it refers to the sacrifice of “Argya” to the moon on the Chaturthi of the Kartika month using an earthen pot known as a “Karwa.” Every year, the event takes place on the fourth day of the dark fortnight of the Kartika month. There are several anecdotes connected to this festival, even if its beginnings are still quite murky. Here are a few well-known Karwa Chauth tales that illustrate the significance of this festival:

Queen Veervati’s story 

Karwa Chauth and the History Behind It

A beautiful queen named Veervati formerly reigned as the lone sibling of seven devoted and considerate brothers. She started a simple fast after sunrise on her first Karwa Chauth while staying with her parents. She was thirsty and hungry in the evening, and she was impatiently awaiting the moonrise. Her brothers were distressed to see her in such anguish. They created the illusion that the moon was in the sky by mounting a mirror in a peepal tree. As soon as Veervati broke her fast, she learned that her husband had passed away. She couldn’t stop crying and was devastated. She left right away for home, where she ran into Goddess Parvati. Maa Parvati admitted that her brothers had played a trap on her. She then observed the Karwa Chauth fast with complete devotion, and upon witnessing her commitment, Yama, the lord of death, brought her husband back to life. Women keeping the fast frequently hear this Queen Veervati Karva Chauth Katha, which is highly famous.

Queen Draupadi’s Karwa Chauth Story

Karwa Chauth and the History behind it

Arjuna and Draupadi from the Mahabharata are the next Karva Chauth Kahani on our list. When Arjuna, the person Draupadi loved the most, decided to punish himself, he travelled to the Nilgiri mountains. The rest of the Pandava brothers were having trouble without him. In this circumstance, Draupadi asked Lord Krishna what should be done to address this problem. Then Lord Krishna narrated a story of Goddess Parvati, who performed the Karwa Chauth ceremonies. Therefore, Draupadi performed the severe Karwa Chauth fast for the well-being of her husband, and the Pandavas were able to find solutions to their issues.

Karwa’s Karwa Chauth Story

Karwa was a woman who was madly in love with her spouse and had many spiritual powers as a result of this passionate love. Once, when her husband went to take a bath in the river, a crocodile attacked him. Having remembered Yama, the Lord of Death, brave Karwa now bound the crocodile with cotton yarn. She prayed to Lord Yamraj, asking him to grant her husband life and the crocodile death. But Yamraj said he couldn’t. Then, Karwa threatened to curse Lord Yama and destroy Yamdev in return. Yamraj was extremely petrified of being cursed by such a dedicated and loving wife; hence, he sent the crocodile to hell and bought her husband back to life.

Even today, married ladies pray to Karva Mata for their husbands’ health and happiness, according to the Karva Chauth Kahani that was narrated.

Satyavan and Savitri’s Karwa Chauth Story

According to legend, Savitri pleaded for Satyavan’s life in front of Yama, the god of death, when he arrived to take his life. Yama insisted on taking away Savitri’s husband, despite the fact that she had quit eating and drinking and had followed Yama. Yama now told Savitri that she might request any other miracle, except the death of her husband. Due to her intelligence, Savitri asked Yama if he could bless her with bearing a child, which was something she desired. However, she would also not tolerate any form of betrayal because she was a dedicated and loyal wife. As a result, Yama had to give Satyavan life again so that Savitri might become pregnant.

Women and girls who are fasting on Karva Chauth day, make sure to hear Savitri’s Karva Chauth Katha. Additionally, hearing all the Karva Chauth tales highlights the significance of this fast and how old this festival is.

Why is Karwa Chauth Celebrated?

Given the aforementioned Karva Chauth stories, you might now be well aware of the significance that this event has in Hindu culture. This festival is more prominent in the northern and north-western parts of our country. The Indian Army soldiers and military officials made up a sizable portion of the male population in these areas; hence, the ladies in these areas began fasting for the safety of these real heroes. The women used to pray for the long lives of their husbands as they protected the nation from enemies.

In ancient times, women used to get married at the age of 10 to 13 in India. In such a marriage, they would not be able to enjoy their childhood or early adolescence. Additionally, communication was a major barrier back then. They, therefore, found it difficult to visit their parent’s houses, which was equally bad. Therefore, a woman had to take total responsibility for a new household from a young age. She was sent in charge of all the daily chores, including cooking and cleaning. But she was living in an unknown house alone, far from her loved ones, and she had no friends either. In times of loneliness or homesickness, where would she go?

Therefore, to address this issue, the women began to celebrate Karwa Chauth in a magnificent manner, where married women from the entire village as well as some of the neighbouring villages would gather in one location and spend the day in joy and laughter. They became friends and referred to one another as “God sisters” or “God friends.”

One could argue that the origin of this festival was a way for them to have fun and forget about being alone at their in-laws’ house. On this day, they celebrated their union and gave gifts to one another, such as sindoor, lipstick, and bracelets, to serve as a constant reminder that someone out there is always a friend.

Recently, husbands have begun to fast for their spouses as well. This act has added an extra specialness to the festival, as it represents compassion, love, and understanding on both sides.
