Dr. Arpita Manek Rajyaguru
Consultant Dermatologist & Aesthetic Physician. Founder of VRAJ Aesthetic & Skin Clinic. A practice built on one principle — that good medicine and warm care are not opposing forces.
Medicine first. Everything else second.
Aesthetic medicine in India has two faces. One is commercial — menu cards, package deals, outcomes promised before a skin has even been examined. The other is medical — thorough history-taking, diagnosis, protocols that evolve. VRAJ was founded to be the second kind, in a city that deserves both.
Dr. Arpita treats every patient the way she would want to be treated — with honesty about what a treatment can and cannot do, with the time to ask real questions, and with a protocol chosen for the skin rather than the season.
Every consultation begins with the medical. Every follow-up ends with the human. The two are never separated.
Training, then more training.

From classroom to clinic.
Medical school begins
Admitted to B. J. Medical College, Ahmedabad — the start of a deliberate choice to practise in the city she grew up in.
MD Dermatology
Three years of residency in clinical dermatology — venereology, leprosy, paediatric dermatology, and the long foundation of medical skin care.
Aesthetic fellowship
A year dedicated to aesthetic medicine — injectables, lasers, and the art of conservative enhancement. The philosophy of restraint took root here.
Senior clinical practice
Four years as consultant dermatologist at leading skin clinics in Ahmedabad — building a patient base, refining protocols, learning what a clinic should never be.
VRAJ is founded
A single-practitioner clinic in Aaryan Elan, designed from scratch. Not a franchise. Not a chain. A place where one doctor sees every patient, every time.
What a first visit looks like.
