MD Dermatology · Skin, Hair & Nail Specialist · Founder, PRALASH Dermystique
A breakout that won't clear. Hair thinning faster than it used to. A rash that keeps coming back no matter what you put on it. None of that improves from another product bought on a whim, it needs an actual diagnosis, and that's the gap Dr. Premalatha, MD, Dermatology, has spent 16+ years closing at PRALASH Dermystique & Dentique. Most patients refer to her as the best dermatologist in bangalore because, before making any decision, she checks everything.
More than most people assume. Rashes and pimples are the obvious cases, but the list runs longer — pigmentation, eczema, psoriasis, fungal infections, hair fall, dandruff, cosmetic work like fine lines or lost volume. A nail that's changed colour belongs here too, and so does a mole that looks a little off compared to last year.
Some of it's strictly medical. Some is purely aesthetic. A lot lives in between the two, and sorting out which is which is most of the actual work. That's the real job of a skin doctor, figuring out what you're dealing with, since the exact same breakout on two people can trace back to two different causes.

Items without a link — Eczema & Dermatitis, Fungal Infection, Nail Disorder, Psoriasis, and Sexually Transmitted Disease — are diagnosed and treated in-clinic. Call to discuss your concern directly.
Acne scarring. Melasma. Eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo. Fungal infections of the skin and nails come in regularly too, along with hair thinning in men and women, premature greying, and the odd nail change tied to something happening elsewhere in the body.
Ask a dermatologist for hair loss what's actually behind it, and the honest answer usually depends on who's asking. Diet, stress, thyroid history, family pattern, all get discussed. Rarely is it one thing alone.
Give a skin issue six to eight weeks with basic care, ordinary cleanser and moisturiser, nothing fancy. If it hasn't shifted by then, that's not the moment to try something stronger. It's the moment to get it looked at.
A handful of things don't get that grace period.
It starts with questions, not a prescription pad.
How long has this been going on. What's already been tried. Has your routine, stress or health changed lately.
Under proper light, sometimes magnified if the skin calls for a closer look.
To rule out a fungal cause, or check for infection.
The plan gets explained, not just handed over.
Diagnosis comes first, always, since it matters more than whatever treatment follows.

Dr. Premalatha has 16+ years in dermatology and is now one of Bangalore's established names in cosmetic dermatology, hair restoration, and evidence based skin science. PRALASH Dermystique, the clinic she founded in 2014, runs on one belief: good aesthetic results come from sound medical judgment first, not a shortcut.
Her training runs deep. Ambedkar Medical College, Bangalore, for her MBBS. A postgraduate degree in Dermatology from JJ Medical College, Davangere. A Fellowship in Dermatosurgery at St John's Medical College, specialised training that goes beyond a general dermatology degree and covers surgical precision work most clinics don't offer in-house. Years in trichology built her name as a hair specialist people travel across the city for, and that focus led her to write a book on the lifestyle factors behind hair loss. Her Karnataka Medical Council registration is on display at the clinic, and her clinical approach follows treatment guidance published by the Indian Association of Dermatologists, Venereologists and Leprologists.

Dr. Premalatha personally examines every patient before recommending anything, medical or purely cosmetic, no exceptions. No treatment gets pulled off a generic checklist. Pricing gets explained before you're in the chair, not after.
Skin and hair care are available under one roof here, so a related concern doesn't mean starting over at a different clinic. Looking for a skin specialist who walks you through the reasoning, not just the prescription? That's the model this practice runs on.
I cannot recommend Dr. Premalatha enough. I originally visited for sudden acne, but she ended up changing my entire health journey. While many doctors previously ignored my PCOS history or simply prescribed birth control pills, she truly listened. She recognized that my skin issues were linked to my hormones and proactively referred me to specialists who actually looked for the root cause. Thanks to her holistic approach and excellent referrals, my acne has cleared and I've had normal cycles for the first time in years. She doesn't just treat symptoms, she treats the person.
Had a great experience with the Dr Premalatha. She was very friendly and approachable. I consulted her for my acne concerns, and my husband also visited for his hair issues. She patiently explained everything in detail without rushing, which made us feel very comfortable. Truly appreciated the time and attention she gave us.
I visited pralash clinic for my hair fall concerns dr. premalatha listened to my problem carefully and suggested the right treatment Im happy with the guidance and see good improvement thank you to dr. premalatha and team i would definitely recommend her is best dermatologist in bangalore
