YCDC - Dr. Yogiraj Centre For Dermatology And Cosmetology, Whitefield

I had undergone FUE hair transplant (HT) in December 2019. After a year I have got complete results now in Dec 2020. Extremely satisfied & happy!!!

Short background: -

I started doing research for finding out the best clinic in Bangalore for hair transplant in August 2019. In a course of over 2 months, after spending around 5k just in consultations with around 10 top clinics, I zeroed down on two of them & finally selected Dr. Niranjana. If you think about a good clinic in Bangalore, chances are that I have probably visited that. :)

My reasons to go for procedure with Dr. Niranjana: -

(i) 12 years of experience - Hair transplant started gaining traction in last decade in India, so technically she is in this domain since the beginning.

(ii) She is a Cosmetologist apart from being a Dermatologist & Hair Transplant Surgeon. Hair transplant is a lot about aesthetics. No matter how good a surgery is done if the final appearance is not good it amounts to nothing. So, a touch of artistry by someone trained in it would most of the time be better than the one not trained.

(iii) Very accommodative - I asked over 100 questions during consultations (Many of which I knew the answers about from my visits to other clinics but just to be sure one final time, lol!!). She answered all of them. Changed my timings for consultation & few other tantrums, all accommodated.

(iv) Results- I saw results of patients who had undergone & interacted with them about their experience.

Now what sealed the deal for me: -

(iv) Integrity - While at many clinics I was suggested to go for higher number of grafts which she could have done as well & made some quick and easy bucks. But she suggested me to preserve my grafts & go for what is required (A great suggestion in retrospect!!).When I insisted to go for more graft for more density , she also assured me that she would do a second procedure again without extra charge if I was not satisfied!!! (top notch professional medical ethics, hard to find these days!!)

Surgery Experience

(i) Shalini - Administrative officer there - very helpful & friendly, took care of all the things after finalizing the date of HT.

(ii)We began early @ 4:00 am, Doctors were very punctual, I was not. :)

(iii )Dr. Niranjana & a team of doctors - performed the HT procedure themselves during entire time. Technical staff were only doing supporting activities & at no point they were involved in surgery. {very important}

(iv) Post surgery consultation & PRP –Extremely good, Done by Dr. Yasmin.

Final word :- I have taken time out to write this review only because I am very happy with my results & this is least I could do for doctors who are skillful & have not yet yielded to the commodification of healthcare in a world where it appears that entire ecosystem is designed to rip you off !!

But don't take my word for it. Just visit once & see it for yourself.

This review was long overdue, but I am glad I am finally writing it. I had gone to YCDC about 4 yrs back as I was suffering from acute hair loss and I was not happy about it. During the first consultation Dr. Niranjana explained to me in detail yet simple terms, why hair loss and baldness happens. She also explained the different treatments available and how each one has it’s own benefits. The best part is that she did not push any treatment and let me decide based on my understanding. I decided to go with a hair transplant surgery and PRP thereafter. I must say that Dr. Niranjana and her team are extremely talented and professional. Both the transplant procedure and PRP sessions following that were done in a professional manner and the results have been outstanding. I must say, with my hairline back to where it should be, not only has my look transformed, it has also given me great confidence. What better testimony than the fact that my long-time friends and colleagues say that while others are getting old, I have gotten younger :P. I can’t thank enough Dr. Niranjana and her team of doctors including Dr. Suvina and Dr. Yasmeen and the staff at YCDC (Ms Shruti, Ms Shalini and others). For all your skin and hair related concerns, look no further. YCDC is the go-to place. Keep up the good work and bring smiles on people’s faces, Niranjana ma’am.

First of all, took an online appointment at 3:30 pm. They called us in d morning asking us to b on time yet after reaching there we waited for 2 hours and met doctor at 5:30 pm. They are sending other known patients first.

Unprofessional attitude at front desk, their dressing also shows what this clinic stands for. No uniform.

The above was management issue but after meeting the doctor! I would advice ****** ***** *** *** *** ***** *** ****** ****** *** ****** ** ***** *** ******* ** **** *** * ***** ******** She was calling other doctors to have a look at the skin (private area) and creating a psychological fear to my wife that it’s a very big problem and it needs this procedure and that. It is very serious issue and all. My wife told me abt what doctor said after we reached home.

Else, I would have spoken to doctor directly asking her **** *** *** * *** *** ******* *** ** *** ******* *** ******* ************* ** ******** *******

To the matter of fact, I already know what the problem is *** ** ***** * *** ******* ** *** *** ********* ****** ***** ** ***** **** * ****** **********

She told that blood tests needs to be done compulsory *** ** *** ** ***** * ******** ******** **** ****** *** ****** when I questioned her that, ******* ******** ****** *** *** ***** **** *** *** **** *********** It’s a simply procedure.. just a prick of pimples kind of thing *** ****** ****** *** * ******* ******** ****** **** *** ******* *** ** ***

Came out of doctor’s cabin and headed for laboratory..

So, I asked how much the procedure would cost? And they said 4,000 rupees. * **** ****** **** ********* *** **** ** **** ****** ** ******* ******** ********** **** ********** *** **** ****** *** * **** ** ** *** ** ******

** **** ** **** ****** **** ** ******* ********** ***** ** ** ****** **************

Frankly speaking.. too expensive I felt. Financially, *** *** **** *** **** * *** ****** ******** **** ************* ** ****** ** * **** ***** **** **** ******** ** ******** * *** **

Thank you for reading this. Hope the management too reads it and correct their mistakes.

*** ** *** **** *** ****** ****** * **** **** **** *******. Despite having such a busy schedule(appointment wait time is at least one week) she has given proper time for the diagnosis. She was very friendly, interactive, asked very relevant questions, listened my problems patiently and examined my hair scalp skillfully with her high tech microscope 🙂. After interacting with her I must say I am very optimistic that my hair greying/dandruff problem will be controlled, Thank you so much ma'am for being so nice and genuine, can recommend her any day, *** ** *** **** ** ********** 🙏
