Dermatology

The Department of Dermatology at Apex Group of Hospitals provides expert medical, surgical and cosmetic care for the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes across Mumbai, with services at our hospital units in Borivali, Kandivali and Mulund. Skin is the body's largest organ, and when it itches, burns, breaks out, or changes, it affects far more than just appearance. It disturbs sleep, makes clothes uncomfortable, limits time outdoors and can quietly lower confidence. The department cares for patients of all ages, from a baby with a rash to an older adult with a skin growth that needs checking.

Patients looking for a dermatology hospital in Mumbai will find a department that treats infections, immune-related conditions, degenerative changes, skin tumours and sexually transmitted infections, as well as cosmetic concerns such as hair loss, scars and ageing skin. A skin specialist in Mumbai at Apex looks for the cause of the problem, not only its surface, and explains the diagnosis in plain language.

The department is equipped with liquid nitrogen, electrocautery machines and laser therapy, as well as peels and other cosmetic procedures. Whether you need skin treatment in Mumbai for a long-standing condition or a simple check of a mole that has changed, you are seen in private, examined carefully and given a clear plan. If you are looking for a dermatologist in Mumbai, you can expect honest advice on what will help, how long it may take, and what you can do at home. Most skin conditions improve with treatment, and the earlier they are assessed, the sooner appropriate treatment can begin.

Conditions We Treat

The Department of Dermatology at Apex Group of Hospitals diagnoses and manages conditions of the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes. These include infections, immune-related conditions, degenerative conditions and tumours, as well as sexually transmitted infections, which we handle with full privacy. The department also provides aesthetic care for hair loss, scars and the skin changes that come with age. Anyone looking for a dermatologist in Mumbai is assessed individually before any treatment is suggested.

Conditions the department manages include:

• Acne and oily skin: Pimples, dark marks and scars that affect confidence. Acne treatment in Mumbai at Apex follows a plan suited to the skin type.
• Skin allergies and eczema: Itching, rashes, hives and dry, inflamed skin that disturbs sleep. Skin allergy treatment in Mumbai at Apex focuses on finding the trigger.
• Infections of the skin, hair and nails: Fungal, bacterial and viral infections such as ringworm, boils and warts.
• Psoriasis, vitiligo and immune-related skin diseases: Long-term conditions treated with creams, tablets and light therapy, such as PUVA.
• Pigmentation and skin ageing: Dark patches, uneven tone, fine lines and dull skin.
• Hair loss and scalp problems: Thinning, patchy hair loss and dandruff. Hair loss treatment in Mumbai begins with finding the cause.
• Scars, warts and skin growths: Harmless growths and suspicious lesions, some of which may need a biopsy.

During a consultation, the dermatologist examines the skin, hair and nails. A scraping, a swab or a small biopsy may be taken before the diagnosis is discussed. Treatment depends on what the assessment shows. Creams, tablets, light therapy, minor procedures or cosmetic treatment are all considered. Not every skin problem needs a procedure.
