Cosmetic Dermatology and Patient Care Approach
Cosmetic dermatology combines medical understanding of the skin with procedures intended to address concerns such as pigmentation, scars, texture changes, hair loss, or age-related skin changes.
Dr. Rajan’s background as a dermatologist is particularly relevant because aesthetic concerns can sometimes overlap with underlying skin disease. A consultation may therefore begin with examination of the skin, previous treatments, medications, allergies, skin type, and the patient’s treatment goals before a procedure is considered.
Her procedural interests include lasers, fillers, acne-scar management, dermatosurgery, and hair-restoration techniques. The choice of treatment depends on the concern being treated, skin characteristics, previous procedures, and expected benefits and limitations.
She has also maintained a professional interest in treatments designed for Indian and other skin-of-colour patients, where pigmentation response and the risk of post-inflammatory colour changes may influence procedure selection.
