Clinical Philosophy
"Healthy skin is not a luxury — it's medicine. I aim to get to the root, not just the surface."
Dr. Kanchan's approach is grounded in diagnostic thoroughness before cosmetic intervention. She believes that aesthetic treatments work best when the underlying skin or hair health is addressed first — rushing to procedures without understanding the cause often leads to disappointing results.
Her consultations are detailed: she reviews skincare history, diet, hormonal factors and lifestyle before proposing a treatment plan. Patients are never pressured into premium treatments; the most cost-effective path to a good outcome is always the starting point.
She brings the same methodical attention to hair health through her trichology practice — diagnosing forms of hair loss and scalp disease before recommending any restorative treatment, whether medical or procedural.
Frequently Asked Questions
Typically 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for most areas, though this varies by skin type, hair colour and area being treated. Dr. Kanchan will advise on an estimated session count during your initial consultation.
Most acne scars can be significantly improved — a realistic improvement of 50–80% is achievable with the right combination of treatments. Complete elimination is rarely possible, but meaningful, visible improvement usually is. Dr. Kanchan will be honest about what's realistic for your specific scar type.
Botox (botulinum toxin) is one of the most widely studied aesthetic procedures in the world and is considered very safe when administered by a qualified doctor. Results typically last 3–6 months, after which treatment can be repeated. Dr. Kanchan uses brand-name, licensed products only.
Hair loss has many causes — hormonal, nutritional, autoimmune, genetic and stress-related — and the treatment depends entirely on the underlying cause. Many forms of hair loss are highly treatable when addressed early. Dr. Kanchan assesses the specific type before recommending a course of action.
