Dr. Sonal Khade Ahuja is a globally trained dermatologist whose career blends advanced international education with a patient-first philosophy of holistic care. After earning her medical degree in India, she went on to train in dermatology and aesthetic medicine at prestigious institutions across Europe and the United States, where she specialised in regenerative medicine, laser dermatology, and minimally invasive aesthetic procedures.
Her exposure to international practices has shaped her belief that great dermatology is not just about treating the skin in isolation, but about understanding the mind–skin connection. By combining medical dermatology with dermapsychology, she addresses how skin health profoundly affects confidence and self-worth.
Dr. Ahuja’s expertise spans advanced treatments such as HydraFacial MD, HIFU for face sculpting, regenerative therapies with exosomes, and next-generation devices like Exion — of which Skin Aesthete is one of the few clinics in India to offer.
At Skin Aesthete, her signature approach is to create customised, long-term treatment plans that evolve with her patients’ needs. She advocates for a 360° model of care, where nutrition, mental well-being, and lifestyle choices are as integral to glowing skin as technology and medical science.
Today, she is widely recognised for bringing international standards of aesthetic dermatology to Navi Mumbai, while championing holistic wellness as the future of skincare in India. “I would like to emphasize that Skin Aesthete is not just a clinic – it is a movement toward mindful beauty and scientific skin health. Our goal is to create a space that celebrates confidence, well-being, and authenticity,” she says.
