MBBS, MD (Dermatology) | Co-Founder, IHT Clinics
Fellow ISHRS, USA | Past President & Founder Member, AHRS India | Gold Medalist
India's first female hair transplant surgeon and one of the country's best dermatologists specialising in hair restoration. The first Indian female doctor to present a research paper on hair transplant at an international conference. Over 20 years of clinical experience in hair loss diagnosis, medical management, and regenerative hair therapies.
Dr. Aman Dua brings a rigorous, diagnosis-led perspective to hair restoration - one that begins with understanding why hair is falling before deciding on how it should be treated. Her dual expertise in dermatology and hair transplant surgery gives patients access to a complete view of their condition rather than being pushed toward a single treatment option from the outset.
Credentials at a Glance
Dr. Aman Dua is the Co-Founder of IHT Clinics and one of India's best dermatologists with a career spanning over two decades in hair loss diagnosis, dermatological management, and hair restoration treatment. She holds the distinction of being India's first female hair transplant surgeon, a recognition that reflects both her clinical range and her early commitment to a speciality that had very few women in practice at the time.
Her approach to hair restoration is built on a principle she has applied consistently throughout her career: accurate diagnosis comes before treatment. Before a patient is guided toward any procedure, surgical or otherwise, she invests time in identifying the underlying cause of their hair loss, whether rooted in genetics, hormonal change, nutritional deficiency, thyroid dysfunction, stress, or other systemic conditions. This distinction matters because the right treatment for androgenetic alopecia looks very different from the right treatment for telogen effluvium, and getting that assessment wrong leads to poor outcomes regardless of how skilled the surgeon is.
She completed her MBBS and MD in Dermatology from Dayanand Medical College and Hospital (DMC) in Ludhiana, one of India's most respected medical institutions, graduating as a Gold Medalist in Pharmacology and Microbiology. Following her formal training, she served as an Assistant Professor at DMC, building both clinical depth and a structured teaching framework that informs how she communicates with patients today.
She consults patients at IHT Clinic locations in Delhi and Ludhiana. What patients consistently value about a consultation with her is the clarity it brings. Many arrive having already been told they need a transplant, and leave with a much more complete picture of what is actually happening with their hair, what is driving it, and what the right sequence of treatment looks like for their specific case. That diagnostic depth is the foundation everything else at IHT is built on.
Dr. Aman Dua's career is defined by a series of contributions that were genuinely firsts for women in Indian hair restoration. Beyond the clinical work, she invested in building the academic and institutional structures that help establish hair restoration as a recognised medical speciality in India, through editorial leadership, research, and sustained participation in national and international scientific platforms.
Dr. Aman Dua graduated as a Gold Medalist in Pharmacology and Microbiology from Dayanand Medical College and Hospital (DMC), Ludhiana, one of India's most respected medical institutions, where she also served as an Assistant Professor after completing her MD in Dermatology. Her academic record reflects the same standard of rigour she brings to clinical practice.
Professional Memberships & Affiliations
Patients consult Dr. Aman Dua when they want a thorough medical evaluation of their hair loss before committing to any treatment path. Her practice spans diagnostics, non-surgical management, regenerative therapies, and surgical planning - giving patients a single point of expert contact across the full spectrum of hair restoration. Patients from cities like Amritsar, Chandigarh, and Mohali regularly visit IHT Clinics to get quality hair restoration treatment and expert guidance from a specialist of her calibre.
A hair transplant is only appropriate when the right type of hair loss is present. Dr. Aman Dua begins every patient's journey with a structured evaluation of their hair loss history, scalp condition, hormonal profile, nutritional status, and family background. This diagnostic first step shapes all subsequent decisions, ensuring patients receive treatment matched to the actual cause of their hair loss rather than a blanket solution.
Many hair loss conditions respond well to medical treatment before any surgical consideration is raised. Dr. Aman Dua prescribes and monitors evidence-based medical protocols including topical and systemic treatments, nutritional supplementation, and scalp health management programmes, tailoring each plan to the individual based on diagnosis and ongoing response to treatment.
Hair loss in women is more diagnostically complex than male pattern baldness. Causes are often multifactorial, involving hormonal shifts, thyroid conditions, post-pregnancy changes, iron deficiency, PCOS, or autoimmune triggers. As a dermatologist and the country's first female hair transplant surgeon, Dr. Aman Dua is uniquely positioned to evaluate female hair loss with the clinical depth it demands. She guides women through diagnosis, medical management, and where appropriate, female hair transplant planning.
Dr. Aman Dua administers both PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) therapy for patients experiencing active hair shedding, thinning, or looking to support the health of existing follicles before they consider surgery. These non-surgical treatments are prescribed after a proper assessment of suitability and are administered as part of a broader treatment plan rather than as standalone quick fixes.
For patients pursuing a hair transplant, Dr. Aman Dua plays a significant role in pre-surgical evaluation, determining whether the patient's health baseline is appropriate for surgery, and in post-operative care planning, monitoring graft recovery, prescribing appropriate medications, and guiding long-term maintenance to protect both transplanted and existing hair.
Hair restoration is not a one-time event. For most patients, maintaining the results of any surgical or non-surgical treatment requires an ongoing strategy that addresses continuing hair loss, scalp health, and response to treatment over time. Dr. Aman Dua works with patients on a long-term basis, adjusting treatment protocols as their hair condition evolves, to ensure that results hold up and that existing hair density is preserved alongside any restoration that has been completed.
Consult Dr. Aman Dua for an accurate diagnosis of your hair loss and a personalised treatment plan built around your specific condition.
