Dr. Ridhima Lakhani

Dr. Ridhima Lakhani is a dermatologist, dermatosurgeon, and aesthetician based at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh in New Delhi. With over a decade of clinical experience, she helps patients navigate everything from stubborn acne scars and pigmentation to hair loss and age-related skin changes. Her work spans both medical dermatology and aesthetic procedures, making her a trusted name for patients who want thoughtful, evidence-based skin care.

Dr. Lakhani earned her MBBS with a gold medal — a reflection of the academic dedication she has carried throughout her career. She went on to complete her MD in Dermatology, Venereology, and Leprology at Sawai Mansingh Medical College in Jaipur, one of India's well-regarded medical institutions, followed by a DNB in Dermatology. This layered training gave her a strong foundation across both clinical skin conditions and advanced cosmetic treatments.

Patients often describe Dr. Lakhani as someone who listens carefully and explains things in plain language. She takes time to understand what is bothering a patient — whether it is a skin condition affecting daily confidence or a cosmetic concern they have been hesitant to discuss — and builds a treatment plan around their specific needs. Her approach is measured and patient-centred rather than one-size-fits-all.

For international patients travelling to India for dermatology care, Fortis Shalimar Bagh offers a familiar, internationally accredited hospital environment. Dr. Lakhani is comfortable working with patients from different cultural backgrounds and communicates clearly in both English and Hindi. Gaf Healthcare can coordinate your consultation, travel logistics, and follow-up care so your journey is as smooth as possible.
