Dr. Maharania examines the affected area and asks about your history, triggers and any treatments you've already tried.
A clear diagnosis — with simple tests only if needed — so treatment targets the real cause, not just the symptoms.
A treatment plan suited to your skin type, the severity, and your daily routine — explained in plain language.
