A dermatologist who examines first
Dr. Tanya Kochhar is a dermatologist, trichologist and aesthetic dermatologist based in Gurgaon. She studied medicine at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, completed her housemanship at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in New Delhi, and took her MD in Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy at MGM Medical College and Hospital, where she finished first in her department. She also holds a DNB in Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy.
After her MD she worked as a Senior Resident in dermatology at Guru Gobind Singh Government Hospital in Delhi, in an outpatient department seeing 200 to 400 patients a day, and then completed a post-doctoral fellowship in Aesthetic Dermatology (FRGUHS) at the Venkat Center for Aesthetic Health in Bangalore, accredited by Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences.
Examination comes before treatment. Dermoscopy is used for skin lesions and pigmentation, trichoscopy for hair loss, and a biopsy is arranged when the picture is unclear. Aesthetic work is approached conservatively: the aim is skin that looks well rather than treated, and a procedure is declined when it is unlikely to help.
