In a Twitter post, which has now been removed, Rane shared the horrific incident. The caption read: “A woman from Andheri Lokhandwala market Kamdhenu shopping center went to Glow Luxe salon for a facial. Substandard products & techniques used causing skin to burn. 4.5 out of 8 severity permanent damage certified by a dermatologist. I got FIR registered & got justice for the woman…”
According to moneycontrol, a number of Twitter users expressed shock at the incident and called for regulation of such salons. Some of the comments read:
A user described the incident as “Horrible,” adding, “My God! Even after paying Rs 17,500, this is the result of ruining the lady’s skin.”
Another Twitter user suggested the unregulated state of beauty parlors as the cause, adding: “such issues erupt as everyone wants to become rich overnight.”
A user pointed out the significance of professionals in the field, stating: “With a good beautician, a facial can be relaxing and soothing but sometimes it actually does more harm than good due to an allergic reaction to some cream, wrong massaging techniques, or ignorance on the part of the beautician.”
Healthline defines HydraFacial as “hydradermabrasion,” a patented skin treatment available in medical spas and dermatology offices. The procedure involves a hydrating serum and microdermabrasion-like exfoliation.
The procedure uses a three-step process to deep-clean, exfoliate, and moisturize your skin. Professionally performed, this treatment can treat acne, dryness, and wrinkles.
