Myth vs Fact Library

Popular skin, hair, weight and hijama claims checked honestly against clinical practice by Sumaiya of Nayami Cosmyc.

Acne

Myth: Oily food causes pimples.
Diet plays a supporting role — mainly high glycaemic load and, for some, dairy. Hormones, sebum and follicular blockage drive acne.
Myth: Drying the skin out clears acne faster.
A stripped barrier increases oil production and inflammation. Hydrated skin tolerates active treatment better.

Pigmentation

Myth: A strong peel will remove melasma permanently.
Melasma relapses with sun and hormones. Aggressive peeling on Indian skin often deepens it.

Sunscreen

Myth: Indoors means no sunscreen.
Visible light and UVA through glass both drive pigmentation. Daily use is the highest-yield habit available.

Hair

Myth: Frequent washing causes hair fall.
Hair already shed is simply released during washing. Leaving an oily, flaking scalp unwashed makes shedding worse.
Myth: Oiling regrows hair.
Oiling improves manageability and can reduce breakage. It does not reverse androgenetic thinning or fix low ferritin.

PRP

Myth: PRP works for everyone.
PRP needs living follicles. Where the scalp is smooth and scarred, no injection will regrow hair.

Microneedling

Myth: Home derma rollers give clinic results.
Home rollers are shallow, hard to sterilise and a common cause of infection and tracking marks.

Laser

Myth: Laser is unsafe for Indian skin.
Wrong settings are unsafe. Correct wavelength, conservative fluence and proper cooling make it routine.

Weight

Myth: Skipping dinner is the fastest way to lose weight.
It reliably produces late-night bingeing and muscle loss. Meal timing matters far less than total intake and protein.

Nutrition

Myth: Rice and roti must be eliminated.
Portion, pairing and cooking method decide the glycaemic impact. Elimination is what makes plans fail by week six.

Hijama

Myth: More cups and more blood means better results.
Point selection is clinical, not quantitative. Excess is unnecessary and increases risk.
