Inception
She founded Dr. Karishma Aesthetics in 2019—an advanced, all-inclusive cosmetic daycare center for procedures in cosmetic/plastic surgery, facial aesthetics, dermatology, skin lasers, medi facials, and cosmetic dental care. Only at their facility was advanced technology like the Alma Soprano Titanium laser hair reduction devices, VASER Liposculpting for Body Contouring, SilkPeel Dermal Infusion Medifacial, and others first introduced.
Dr. Karishma adds, “Initially, I started my plastic & cosmetic surgery journey at the Columbia Asia group of hospitals in Bangalore. I then moved to Kolar and worked as an Assistant Professor at Devaraj Urs Medical College. I have also gained intense plastic cosmetic surgery specialties from Aster Hospital Hebbal, Bangalore, India, where I have contributed for two years. These experiences, hands-on practices, and training have given me the motivation, belief, and joyous zeal to start my center.”
As a result, Dr. Karishma Aesthetics (a state-of-the-art top-tiered plastic & cosmetic surgery clinic/center) is thriving and has earned the title of being South India’s most sought-after plastic surgery center.
