I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

Dr. Bharat Joshi

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

Hello dear
Please be aware
I doubt probably these lesions are due to some internal health issues or hormonal changes
I am suggesting some test to be done for confirmation
Rbs
CBC
Serum prolactin
Serum LDH
Urine analysis
Tsh
In addition please take following precautions
Apply aquaphor moisturizer over skin
Use Tulsi - alovera gel twice a day for 2 weeks.
In case of no improvement, consult dermatologist in person for better clarification and also share reports with the concerned doctor
Hope your problem subsides
Regards

Dr. Alan Reji

I'm Dr. Alan Reji, a general dentist with a deep-rooted passion for helping people achieve lasting oral health while making dental visits feel less intimidating. I graduated from Pushpagiri College of Dental Sciences (batch of 2018), and ever since, I've been committed to offering high-quality care that balances both advanced clinical knowledge and genuine compassion for my patients. Starting Dent To Smile here in Palakkad wasn’t just about opening a clinic—it was really about creating a space where people feel relaxed the moment they walk in. Dental care can feel cold or overly clinical, and I’ve always wanted to change that. So I focused on making it warm, easygoing, and centered completely around you. I mix new-age tech with some good old-fashioned values—really listening, explaining stuff without jargon, and making sure you feel involved, not just treated. From regular cleanings to fillings or even cosmetic work, I try my best to keep things smooth and stress-free. No hidden steps. No last-minute surprises. I have a strong interest in patient education and preventive dentistry. I genuinely believe most dental issues can be caught early—or even avoided—when patients are given the right information at the right time. That’s why I take time to talk, not just treat. Helping people understand why something’s happening is as important to me as treating what’s happening. At my practice, I’ve made it a point to stay current with the latest innovations—digital diagnostics, minimally invasive techniques, and smart scheduling that respects people’s time. I also try to make my services accessible and affordable, because good dental care shouldn’t be out of reach for anyone.

Facial asymmetry and deep dark circles can be due to genetic structure, nutritional deficiencies, sinus issues, or lifestyle factors like poor sleep. Please consult a dermatologist and an ENT specialist to rule out sinus or structural causes and discuss treatment options like fillers, creams, or lifestyle correction. Ensure good sleep, hydration, iron-rich diet, and sun protection, as these simple steps can also improve dark circles and overall facial appearance.

Dr. Neeraj Agarwal

I’m an MBBS graduate with a deep commitment to providing meaningful, patient-first care. My clinical training has given me a solid understanding of how to assess and manage a wide variety of health conditions—both common and complex. But beyond just clinical skills, I’ve always believed that the heart of medicine lies in listening. That’s what I try to bring into every consultation: not just treatment, but genuine attention to the person in front of me. I have gained experience across general medicine, paediatrics, emergency care and preventive health. I have treated patients of different age groups and backgrounds, which has helped shaped a more flexible, to diagnosis and management. Whether someone comes with a new symptom or a routine check-up, I aim to deliver evidence-based treatment, explained clearly and tailored to the lifestyle. I’m especially focused on making care accessible and comfortable. Too often, patients feel rushed or confused when they leave a doctor’s office—I try to do the opposite. Taking time to explain options, risks, or even just what’s going on in simple terms is something I take seriously. Communication, I think, is just as important as any prescription. I actively stay updated with current medical guidelines and research, and I’ve been exploring areas of holistic care and preventive medicine too. The more we can do to catch problems early—or better yet, avoid them—the better the outcome for everyone. I’ve seen how small lifestyle changes, when supported properly, can make a big difference to long-term health. There’s still a lot to learn, of course. I think every good doctor keeps learning. But every patient I see teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons forward—with honesty, empathy, and the intent to keep improving.

Reason for sunken eyes
Nutrient deficiencies — iron, B12, vitamin D, protein
Thin skin under eyes from collagen loss
Allergies / sinus congestion (increases blood pooling)
Dehydration & low facial fat
What you can do at home:
Sleep 7–9 hrs with regular timing
Daily hydration (2–2.5 L water)
Diet rich in:
Iron: spinach, beetroot, jaggery, pomegranate
B12: dairy, eggs, fortified cereals
Protein: dals, paneer, eggs, fish, soy
Vitamin C: citrus fruits, amla, guava
Cold compress or chilled cucumber/green tea bags 5–10 min morning
Gentle under-eye massage with almond oil or hyaluronic acid serum
For face
Check dental alignment with a dentist/orthodontist — bite issues can subtly shift jaw shape over time.
Facial physiotherapy: Strengthening weak side muscles and relaxing overactive ones can improve mild asymmetry.
If severe or progressive — a maxillofacial surgeon or plastic surgeon can assess bone and soft tissue balance.

Dr. Aarav Deshmukh

I am a general physician with 8 years of practice, mostly in urban clinics and semi-rural setups. I began working right after MBBS in a govt hospital in Kerala, and wow — first few months were chaotic, not gonna lie. Since then, I’ve seen 1000s of patients with all kinds of cases — fevers, uncontrolled diabetes, asthma, infections, you name it. I usually work with working-class patients, and that changed how I treat — people don’t always have time or money for fancy tests, so I focus on smart clinical diagnosis and practical treatment. Over time, I’ve developed an interest in preventive care — like helping young adults with early metabolic issues. I also counsel a lot on diet, sleep, and stress — more than half the problems start there anyway. I did a certification in evidence-based practice last year, and I keep learning stuff online. I’m not perfect (nobody is), but I care. I show up, I listen, I adjust when I’m wrong. Every patient needs something slightly different. That’s what keeps this work alive for me.

Evaluating facial asymmetry and dark circles involves considering multiple factors and underlying causes. Facial asymmetry can result from natural anatomical differences, though if a recent development or accompanied by other symptoms, it may be worth investigating. While minor asymmetry is common, sudden changes should be assessed by a healthcare professional to rule out any neurological causes or issues with the jaw. If it’s longstanding, cosmetic or dental evaluations might provide options for improvement. As for dark circles, these can be due to several causes like genetics, allergy-induced sinus congestion, lack of sleep, or even dehydration. Ensuring adequate hydration, a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and consistent, sufficient sleep are foundational steps. Topical treatments containing vitamin C, caffeine, or retinol may help minimize their appearance. If allergies play a role, addressing them with antihistamines or nasal corticosteroids, as discussed with your healthcare provider, could alleviate congestion-related circles. Reducing screen time and using blue light filters may also relieve eye strain contributing to this appearance. If the issue persists or you feel it’s impacting your quality of life, consulting a dermatologist or an ENT specialist for further evaluation would be advisable. They can provide more tailored interventions based on specific causes determined through examination.
