Vitiligo Treatment & Clinical Expertise
I combine global research with hands-on clinical care to bring you evidence-based vitiligo treatment in Mumbai.
This is a before and after view of a patient's wrist just six weeks following a Melanocyte Transplantation surgery for stable Vitiligo. You can see the new pigment already forming, and we expect even more repigmentation in the coming months. My goal with surgical procedures is always to achieve natural, excellent color matching.
Here I am demonstrating a hands-on procedural technique during a Vitiligo workshop for other dermatologists. I believe that sharing knowledge is key to advancing our field, and I am passionate about teaching the practical skills required for successful Vitiligo surgery, including suspension preparation and grafting.
In this clip from my talk at the DASIL World Congress, I am discussing the significant role of JAK inhibitors in dermatology. These newer therapies are a key part of my medical approach for certain cases of Vitiligo, and staying at the forefront of such research allows me to offer the most effective and proven treatments.
I was honored to visit the Vitiligo Clinic and Research Center at UMass Chan Medical School, pictured here with the pioneering researcher, Dr. John Harris. Collaborating with global leaders ensures I can bring the latest scientific advancements, like new molecules that may prevent relapse, directly to my patients.
As a co-founder of the Vitiligo Foundation of India (VFI), I am deeply committed to patient support and education. This photo is from our inaugural VFI workshop, where we brought together researchers, doctors, and patients for hands-on learning and dedicated Q&A sessions to empower our community.
I was thrilled to receive the Aesthetics Mentorship award. This recognition provides a valuable opportunity to learn from other international experts, which in turn enhances the care I can provide. Continuous learning is a cornerstone of my practice.
This is my official invitation to speak at the prestigious EADV (European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology) Congress in Paris. Being asked to present on "Vitiligo and vitiligo-like syndromes" on a global stage is a privilege that allows me to contribute to the international conversation on pigmentary disorders.
About Featured
These moments—whether it is presenting at a congress in Paris or leading a workshop in New Delhi—are about one thing: bringing the latest, research-backed vitiligo treatments to my clinic in Andheri West. When you come to me, you are not getting guesswork. You are getting a personalized plan, whether that means mapping your condition with Wood's Lamp, discussing surgical options like NCES, or exploring the newest molecular therapies.
I believe true expertise is an ongoing conversation. My work with the Vitiligo Foundation of India and my visits to research centers like UMass Chan are not just accolades; they are opportunities to learn about emerging therapies, such as IL-15 targeting molecules, before they hit the mainstream. In my practice, I prioritize transparency. I will tell you if a condition is stable or active, and we will only proceed with treatments that make sense for you—be it medical management, laser sessions, or surgical transplantation. My goal is to simplify the complex world of dermatology, helping you manage your skin health with science, not trends.
