The Department of Dermatology & Cosmetology at Charak Hospital, Lucknow, is a comprehensive centre for diagnosis and management of all skin, hair, nail and sexually transmitted conditions. Backed by NABH accreditation and equipped with modern diagnostic and therapeutic technology, our team provides personalised, evidence-based care for patients of all ages — from new-born skin conditions to complex chronic dermatoses and advanced aesthetic requests.
The department is led by Dr. Shujat Ali, MD (Dermatology, Venereology & Leprosy), a highly experienced dermatologist with deep expertise in both medical dermatology and cosmetic procedures. Dr. Ali's patient-first approach focuses on accurate diagnosis, minimally invasive treatments and clear patient education at every step of care.
Acne & Scarring: Acne is one of the most common concerns we see, affecting teenagers and adults alike. Our treatment ladder progresses from topical antibiotics and retinoids to oral medications, chemical peels and laser resurfacing for stubborn scars. We always pair medical treatment with clear skincare guidance to prevent recurrence.
Psoriasis: A chronic immune-mediated condition, psoriasis requires long-term management. We offer topical therapies, systemic medications, narrowband UVB phototherapy, and — where indicated — advanced biologic therapies. Our goal is sustained remission and an improved quality of life.
Vitiligo: Vitiligo affects approximately 1–2% of the population and can have significant psychological impact. We assess disease activity carefully before recommending treatment — narrowband UVB phototherapy, topical tacrolimus or calcipotriol, and surgical repigmentation techniques for stable patches give many patients meaningful improvement.
Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis): Chronic, relapsing eczema is managed with a structured approach: identifying and eliminating triggers, strengthening the skin barrier with emollients, controlling flares with appropriate topicals, and — in moderate-severe cases — systemic immunosuppressants or newer biologics.
Hair Loss: We evaluate all forms of alopecia — androgenetic, alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, traction alopecia and scarring alopecia — with detailed clinical assessment, trichoscopy and blood investigations where needed. PRP therapy, minoxidil, finasteride (in appropriate cases) and nutritional correction form the backbone of our hair restoration programme.
Our cosmetic dermatology services are carried out by trained specialists using premium, clinically validated products and equipment. All procedures are tailored to the individual's skin type, concerns and goals. Key services include chemical peels (glycolic, salicylic, TCA), Q-switched and fractional laser treatments, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy for skin and hair, botulinum toxin (Botox) for dynamic wrinkles, hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for volume and contouring, microdermabrasion and mesotherapy.
Safety is paramount: every cosmetic procedure is preceded by a detailed consultation, written informed consent and a patch test where indicated. Our medical-grade approach means you receive aesthetic care within a clinical framework — not a beauty salon.
All procedures are performed to the highest patient-safety standards in a fully accredited hospital environment.

It is generally suggested that you visit a dermatologist once a year for a full-body skin examination, especially if you have a history of skin cancer or other skin disorders.
During your first dermatology session, the dermatologist will go over your medical history, examine your skin, and address any concerns or symptoms you may have. They may also propose additional tests or treatments based on their findings.
Acne treatment methods may include topical and oral medicines, laser therapy, chemical peels, and lifestyle changes. The most appropriate treatment depends on the degree and kind of acne.
Yes, cosmetic dermatology procedures are generally safe when carried out by skilled dermatologists or trained medical experts. Before undertaking any cosmetic operation, you should discuss your goals, expectations, and potential risks with your dermatologist.
