Acne & Scar Correction

Teenage acne and adult hormonal acne are different problems. So are ice-pick scars and rolling scars. The treatment changes with the diagnosis - not the other way round.

How we work

From consultation to procedure, one doctor.

Your consultation, procedure and follow-up are handled by the treating dermatologist.

Your procedure, performed by
Dr. K. B. Kavitha

Dr. K. B. Kavitha personally performs all procedures, including laser treatments, injectable procedures, and surgical excisions, ensuring continuity of care from consultation through treatment and follow-up.

Diagnosis first, always

Hair fall gets a trichoscopy and blood work before treatment is discussed. Pigmentation gets a proper cause mapped. Treatment is recommended only after a diagnosis.

CDSCO-approved consumables only

GFC kits, Botox vials, fillers and PRP tubes are sourced through authorised channels. You can ask to see the product, the seal and the batch number before anything enters your skin.

Written pricing, no surprises

Session cost, expected number of sittings and what happens if results are slower than expected, all discussed and documented before you pay a single rupee.

Calibrated for Indian skin

Device settings and peel strengths are adjusted for Indian skin types, which are more prone to pigmentation after treatment.

Hospital-grade sterility

Single-use needles and cannulas, autoclaved instruments, a dedicated procedure room, a separate minor OT and strict infection-control protocols, Because patient safety guides every detail of our clinical environment.

Answers, written by
the doctor herself.

The questions patients ask most often - answered properly by Dr. Kavitha. Not marketing copy. Not AI-generated filler. Just clear, clinical answers.

Hair

PRP vs GFC for hair loss - which one should you choose?

Both use your own blood. They are not the same procedure, and one is measurably more concentrated than the other. Here is how to decide.

Acne

Best acne treatments for Tamil Nadu weather and skin types

Humidity, sweat and higher Fitzpatrick types change what works. A protocol designed for dry European skin is not going to work here.

Common questions

Before you call.

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

An appointment is strongly recommended - procedure days fill up and walk-ins may face a long wait. The quickest way to get a slot is WhatsApp at +91 90922 32991; you will usually be confirmed the same day.

What does a consultation cost?

Consultation is charged separately from treatment and is discussed openly when you book. If you proceed with a procedure on the same day, the consultation fee is adjusted against it.

Will Dr. K. B. Kavitha do the procedure herself?

Yes - every time. Lasers, injectables, minor surgery and hair procedures are performed by Dr. K. B. Kavitha personally. Support staff assist with preparation and aftercare, not with the procedure itself.

Are these treatments safe for darker Indian skin?

They are - provided the device settings are right. Deeper skin types are more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation, which is why device parameters, peel strengths and session intervals at Skin Trust are calibrated specifically for Tamil Nadu skin rather than copied from a manufacturer's default.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends entirely on the concern. Hair PRP is typically a course over several months; acne scars usually need multiple combined sessions; laser hair removal takes six to eight sittings; a mole removal is often one visit. The expected number is always given to you in writing at the consultation.

Do you offer EMI or instalment payments?

Multi-session courses can be paid in instalments. We do not push prepaid packages for treatments you may not need - the plan is reviewed at intervals and adjusted based on your response.

Do you offer laser hair removal for full body?

Yes. We use a medical-grade Diode Laser which is safe for all Indian skin types. Treatment areas include face, upper lip, underarms, arms, legs, bikini line and full body. Each session is performed by Dr. K. B. Kavitha.
