Dermatologist Serving Juhu Patients

Juhu life — sea air, daily sun, salon-heavy styling and unpredictable shoot or shift schedules — shows up on your skin and scalp in predictable ways. Here's what we treat most often:

• Humidity-driven acne. Coastal moisture amplifies oiliness, causing recurrent breakouts along the jawline and back.
• Sun damage & melasma. Beach walks, runs and swims contribute to tanning, freckles and stubborn pigmentation over the cheekbones and forehead.
• Salon-stressed hair. Frequent colouring, keratin, heat styling and tight ties show up as scalp sensitivity, dandruff and diffuse thinning.
• Schedule-related skin fatigue. Early call times, studio lights, travel and disrupted sleep cause dullness, pre-shoot breakouts and early fine lines.
• Body-area pigmentation. Underarms, inner thighs and neck pigmentation is common and very treatable.

Dr. Prajct Sao spends time understanding how you actually live before suggesting a plan — because the right product or procedure only works when it fits your real routine.

The Santacruz branch supports a full range of dermatology services, so patients from Juhu rarely need to travel between clinics for different concerns.

• Medical dermatology. Acne and acne scarring, eczema, psoriasis, urticaria, fungal infections, vitiligo and pigmentary disorders.
• Trichology & hair care. Scalp evaluation, hair-fall workups, dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis, plus PRP and mesotherapy where clinically suitable.
• Laser hair reduction. Face and body, with wavelengths and settings tuned for Indian skin to minimise post-inflammatory pigmentation — discussed honestly as long-term reduction, not a one-and-done solution.
• Chemical peels. Targeted formulations for tan, pigmentation and dullness.
• Hydrafacials & medical facials. Cleansing, hydration and glow-restoring treatments.
• Microneedling. For acne scars, texture and pore refinement.
• Anti-ageing injectables & threads. Carefully placed for natural-looking results.
• Minor procedures. Mole and skin tag removal, wart treatment and cyst drainage, performed in-house under sterile conditions.

Where a concern needs a biopsy or specialised investigation, Dr. Prajct Sao explains the reasoning, the process and what the report will help decide — so nothing happens without you understanding why.

Good dermatology outcomes depend as much on aftercare as on the procedure itself — especially in Juhu's coastal climate. Here are the rules that protect your results.

✓ DO

• Use sunscreen daily. Right SPF, right quantity, right re-application — sun exposure is the single biggest reason pigmentation returns.
• Cleanse and moisturise gently. Follow the specific routine your treatment plan recommends.
• Phase in home-care products slowly. Each product is on your list for a reason — introduce them gradually to avoid irritation.
• Message us between visits if something feels off. A quick check often prevents a small concern from escalating.
• Attend follow-ups on schedule. They are spaced at meaningful intervals, not for the sake of repeat visits.

✗ DON'T

• Skip the beach pause. Beach time, pool swims and outdoor workouts may need to be paused for a defined window after lasers, peels or injectables.
• Layer random actives. Adding new acids or retinoids without checking can undo treatment progress.
• Pick, scrub or wax. Touched, irritated or freshly waxed skin reacts unpredictably to procedures.
• Stretch sunscreen. Once-a-day SPF is not enough in Juhu sun — re-apply every 2 to 3 hours when outdoors.
• Stop treatment because it ‘looks better.’ Completing the planned course is what locks in long-term results.
