Physician-led medical aesthetics, grounded in precision medicine. We treat more than what we see.
Most practices treat what they can see. We go deeper. Every plan at Aahana is grounded in precision medicine, anchored by Visia clinical imaging. When more insight is needed, we extend the picture with advanced diagnostics like skin DNA profiling, microbiome testing, and lab markers of inflammation and hormonal health.

Where it adds insight, we also incorporate Ayurvedic constitutional typing, a framework for understanding how your skin is built, not just how it behaves today. Explore Prakriti →
Aahana is built for everyone, with particular expertise in skin of color, all gender identities, and patients who have historically felt underserved by conventional aesthetics.
Every plan begins with a thorough intake: health history, skin concerns, lifestyle, and goals. We also offer an Ayurvedic Prakriti constitutional assessment to tell us how your skin is built, not just how it looks today.
Visia clinical imaging anchors every analysis with eight clinical metrics matched to your age and skin tone. Where it adds insight, we layer in precision diagnostics like labs, skin DNA, or microbiome testing.
A treatment plan built from everything we've learned, including your clinical data, your constitution, your skin tone, your goals, and your life. Not a template borrowed from someone else's skin. Specific to you, sequenced correctly, explained clearly.
Neuromodulators for smoothing, lifting, and contouring. Hyaluronic acid fillers for volume and definition. PRP injections for tissue renewal and hair restoration.
We're not revealing our energy and laser devices just yet. We can tell you that every device is chosen for its precision, its safety across all skin tones, and its clinical results. Worth the wait.
Collagen stimulation, exosomes, chemical exfoliation, deep cleansing, and more, all calibrated to your skin type and constitution.
Medically supervised weight loss, cellular wellness injections, sexual health services, and a supervised peptide wellness program. Evidence-based, clinically overseen.
All treatment plans begin with a Visia skin analysis and consultation.
At most medical aesthetics practices, a physician signs off on a treatment plan and someone else delivers it, sometimes without the doctor ever setting foot in the clinic. At Aahana, Dr. Shankar leads all medical consultations and treatments directly, setting the standard of care for every patient, every time.
Our licensed aesthetician performs Hydrafacial and VI Peel treatments under Dr. Shankar's direct clinical oversight. Every provider at Aahana works within a physician-led framework. That's not the industry standard. It's ours.
Aahana is built for everyone, with deep expertise across all skin tones, gender identities, and backgrounds. We have a particular commitment to patients who have felt overlooked, rushed, or underserved by conventional aesthetics. Every person deserves a plan built specifically for their skin.
