Book a consultation at Delhi Derma Clinic

Bookings are accepted through the clinic phone line at +91-92119-48111 and the website booking pathway. The booking conversation establishes the slot, the consultation fee, the document checklist for the visit, and the visit format. The framework operates on a prior-appointment model rather than a walk-in model so that visit time is calibrated to the patient's case rather than to a queue.

The clinic operates Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Specific slots within those hours are confirmed at the booking conversation; first-visit dermatology consultations typically run thirty-to-forty-five minutes, with longer windows scheduled for complex multi-concern cases. Sunday closure and selected national-holiday closures apply.

Booking lead-time depends on the patient's preferred window and the clinic's slot availability at the point of booking. The framework does not embed invented "next available in X minutes" claims on the website, nor does it embed false-urgency offers; the booking conversation surfaces real availability and the patient picks the slot that fits. Patients who need an earlier window can flag urgency at the booking conversation.

Operational details around the booking-stage payment are confirmed at the booking conversation. The framework treats the consultation fee as the cost of the visit itself rather than as a deposit against subsequent treatment; whether and how the fee is collected at the booking stage versus the visit stage is part of the booking-stage operational layer rather than a website-stated policy.

Yes, within the framework documented in the formal Refund, Cancellation and Rescheduling Policy. Reasonable rescheduling on patient-side context is part of normal patient-flow handling rather than a default fee-trigger for penalty. Patients with rescheduling needs are encouraged to contact the clinic as early as the situation allows so the slot can be re-allocated. The formal policy in the policies section carries the binding mechanics.

The flat ₹1,999* dermatologist consultation fee covers the visit itself — typically thirty-to-forty-five minutes — including the calibrated clinical assessment, photographic baseline establishment where the pathway warrants it, blood-work interpretation when applicable, the written plan handed over at the end, and the dermatologist's time to review prior reports the patient brings to the visit. The asterisk allows for periodic revision of the figure; the figure quoted at the time of booking applies to that booking.

No. Procedural pathways are priced separately per their respective protocols and are calibrated case-by-case at the consultation rather than displayed as a website list price. The consultation conversation produces the per-component pricing for the recommended pathway in the patient's specific case, embedded in the written plan. The Pricing FAQs covers the framework in detail.

The framework deliberately avoids time-limited "act-now" promotional pricing because it pushes patients toward decisions the clinical calibration does not support. Selected continuity-of-care patterns may apply for established patients across long-term pathways; these are calibrated case-by-case rather than offered as a generic discount layer. The clinic does not run influencer-discount or commission-driven referral promotion.

The consultation fee is structured as the cost of the consultation rather than as a treatment deposit. Whether the fee is adjustable against subsequent treatment in selected pathways is operationally confirmed at the booking and visit; the framework treats the consultation as substantive value-creating on its own rather than as a free-with-purchase entry funnel. Patients who choose not to proceed with the recommended pathway have already received the calibrated assessment and the written plan.

Where the visit recommends fresh laboratory work or imaging, the cost of running those tests sits with the laboratory or imaging pathway the patient uses; the consultation fee does not cover external laboratory or imaging charges. The interpretation of laboratory or imaging results brought to the visit is part of the consultation work and does not attract a separate fee.

Useful items include any prior medical reports relevant to the presenting concern, the current list of medications and supplements (with doses where possible), photographs of any prior pattern that helps with trajectory mapping (album or selfie images at known dates can help for hair-loss, pigmentation, and ageing pathways), prior treatment records if relevant, and the patient's questions written down so they are not forgotten. Patients without these items are not turned away; the consultation can begin without them and additional details follow at subsequent visits.

Dress comfortably with the area of concern accessible for examination — for facial concerns, arrive without heavy makeup where possible. For hair-loss assessment, hair in everyday baseline state is appropriate (no extensive product or unusual styling on the day). Specific procedural-day preparation — sun-avoidance windows, shaving for laser-hair-reduction, and similar — applies separately when procedural work is scheduled rather than at the assessment visit.

Yes. Younger patients accompanied by a parent or guardian, patients who prefer support during the visit, and visits that cover significant decisions all welcome companion attendance with the patient's consent. The framework treats companion presence as patient-supportive rather than as inconvenient. Companions are welcomed in the consultation room with the patient's explicit permission.

There is no formal dress code; comfort and accessible-for-examination are the relevant criteria. The framework does not embed elaborate pre-visit checklists; the practical patient-side preparation is light. The First Visit FAQs page covers the patient-facing preparation framework in narrative detail.

Avoiding heavy makeup or thick product layering on the area of concern is helpful so the dermatologist can assess the underlying skin or hair state. For ongoing skincare pathways the patient is already on, continue as usual unless the visit is specifically about a reaction in which case the trigger product should be brought in for review. Specific case-level guidance is part of the booking conversation.

After the slot is confirmed, the patient receives a booking confirmation through the channel the booking was made on. The framework does not flood the patient with marketing messages; the booking confirmation, any pre-visit reminder, and post-visit follow-up communications are kept to the operational minimum. Patients who prefer a particular communication channel can flag that at the booking conversation.

Selected booking pathways include a short pre-visit confirmation touch-point so the slot is reconfirmed and any patient-side preparation note is shared. Patients are encouraged to confirm their attendance if there is any change in plan so the slot can be re-allocated to another patient where applicable.

Patients running late on visit day are encouraged to call the clinic as soon as the delay is known; visit-flow planning depends on the slot structure and a substantial delay may need to be accommodated through a partial-visit-then-follow-up pathway or a reschedule depending on the day. The framework does not penalise reasonable delay; the practical limit is the day's slot structure rather than a fee-trigger.

No-show handling is covered by the formal Refund, Cancellation and Rescheduling Policy in the policies section. Patient-flow planning relies on the slot framework; the policy text covers the operational specifics. The framework treats genuine emergencies and unavoidable last-minute disruption as part of life rather than as a fee-trigger.

The consultation begins with history-taking around the presenting concern, proceeds to examination of the relevant area, may include photographic baseline establishment where the pathway warrants it, may include blood-work request where the picture suggests systemic context, and concludes with a calibrated written plan covering the recommendation, the rationale, the realistic outcome range, and the residual-risk profile. The framework treats the visit as a clinical conversation rather than as a sales appointment.

Yes — the written plan is the standard output of the consultation. It covers the calibrated recommendation for the case, the realistic outcome range across an evidence-based time window, the per-component pricing for the recommended pathway, the proposed follow-up cadence, and any blood-work or referral routing. The patient leaves with the plan and decides whether and when to proceed at a subsequent visit.

No. The framework explicitly avoids "you must book your treatment today" sales pressure; consideration time is part of how decisions are arrived at well rather than rushed. For straightforward cases where the suitability assessment supports it calibrated procedural work can begin on the consultation day; for most cases the consultation ends with the written plan and procedural work begins at a subsequent visit after the patient has had time to consider the plan.

Patient-side data collected at the booking and visit is held under the Patient Privacy and Records Policy framework as confidential, access-controlled health information. Access is limited to the dermatologist and trained clinical-team members involved in the patient's pathway. The framework does not pass patient information to external marketing parties without specific consent. The formal privacy policy carries the binding mechanics.

Follow-up cadence is part of the written plan from the start. Follow-up visits are calibrated to the pathway — three-to-six-month review windows for active procedural pathways, six-monthly to annual review for maintenance pathways, and selected medical-dermatology review patterns where the case warrants them. Selected follow-ups can be supported by video format where in-person examination is not necessary, per the formal Teleconsultation Policy.
