- Dr. Kaveri Karhade, MD, FAAD

About Dr. Karhade


Dr. Karhade specializes in melanin-rich skin, including South Asian, Asian, Hispanic, Mediterranean, Black and other skin types.


She personalizes treatment for acne scars, hair loss, brown spots, and other concerns for each and every patient according to their skin type and specific presentation, keeping affordability at top of mind.


Instead of you having to seek specific treatments you may have heard about, Dr. Karhade helps establish a skin plan for you- from reviewing your skin care regimen to addressing skin concerns to coming up with a short and long term plan for topicals and procedures. The goal is always the fewest interventions that will give you the biggest benefit for the lowest cost.

Ria Kusre

I have been going to Dr. Karhade for years now and can say that she is one of the best dermatologists I have ever seen. Not only is she super knowledgeable, but explains everything in a simplified way to make me feel comfortable with her diagnosis and treatment plan. She shows empathy and takes her time to ensure I feel heard and understood. Dr. Karhade ensures to educate me on all my options for me to be able to make the best decision for my care. She’s a gem of a find in the dermatology field and I will continue to recommend as many people as I can to her!

I went to Dr. Karhade for dermal fillers last week and I can’t say enough good things about her! Dr. Karhade is very professional and has very good bedside manner! She ensured that I felt comfortable the entire time by patiently asking how I was feeling during our session.


I had three different designated areas for dermal fillers and Botox which took a while for the whole treatment but she was really taking her time to ensure that I’m happy with the result!


Overall, I’m very happy with the result and I can’t thank Dr. Karhade enough for her professional and kind service, and I won’t hesitate to refer her to my friends if they’re also looking into getting fillers! (Also, Dr. Karhade is very responsive when I asked her follow up questions regarding the treatment, love thatttt!)

Dr Karhade is an incredibly caring, attentive, and detail oriented provider. I've been going to see her for the past 4 years for acne and then acne scars, and she's been really helpful in putting together a personalized plan for improving my skin. Her rates are very reasonable, and she always customizes her approach to suit a variety of skins of color, which is often hard to find especially in the Bay. I feel very comfortable trusting my skin health to Dr. Karharde and will continue recommending her practice to friends and family!

It is hard to describe how amazing Dr. Karhade is, you really just have to see her yourself to understand. She has helped me immensely with numerous skin conditions, always providing me with options and working with me to find the solution that that worked best. She is attentive, responsive and cares. After having seen her for multiple medical issues, my overwhelming confidence in her grew and I now exclusively see Dr. Karhade for all cosmetic purposes as well. Dr. Karhade takes the time to perform procedures as painlessly as possible and has a true eye for beauty. She has improved my skin immensely and her work has continued to improve my confidence every day. With regard to aesthetics, Dr. Karhade is an artist and skin is her canvas. In addition to her skill as a physician, Dr. Karhade is incredibly warm and approachable. She is fully present when attending to my needs as a patient and I can tell that dermatology is truly her passion.

Stefani G

Just had two different injectables placed with Dr. Karhade! She is so professional and made my whole experience really enjoyable. Not only did she achieve the natural results I was specifically looking for in one session, she made me feel comfortable and heard the entire time. She gave me helpful suggestions when I ask for her opinion and really helped balance my face! It’s not often you find a doctor who can give you the result you one in one appointment. Excited to work with her again in the future. :)

Mima Geelani

I've seen Dr. Karhade six times now mostly for PRP treatment. I went to Dr. karhade for a second opinion after seeing another derm who didn't really treat me like a human but more like a case and left me feeling uncomfortable. Dr. K spent about 35-40 minutes with me during my initial visit discussing all of my options, writing out a diagram of the treatment routes I could take, which multiple treatments I could combine for maximum benefits, she explained the costs and what risks were involved, and was very transparent that despite the expense, the treatments had a chance of not being effective. Dr. Karhade treated me like a human, not a case, and was always attentive and kind during all my visits. I cannot recommend her enough! Additionally, I was going bald (stress, hormones, genetics) when I met Dr. K, and because of her and her treatments my hair has since grown back.

Dr. Karhade is wonderful! After struggling with some bad acne, Dr. Karhade worked with me to find the best solution. After a couple visits my acne had cleared up and has not returned! She is kind, considerate and an expert at what she does! Highly recommend.

What can I say about Dr. Kaveri, If it was possible to give more than five stars I definitely would. Dr. Kaveri is one of the most trustworthy, kind hearted, amazing dermatologist I have ever been to. She makes you feel so comfortable stepping into the room. I had some abnormal moles that I was afraid of Dr. Kaveri explained to me that I should not be concerned until we do the biopsy. She did a biopsy on me and let me tell you it was the easiest thing I have ever did in my entire life, I am terribly afraid of needles but Dr. Kaveri made the experience so easy. Once I saw how soft handed and amazing she was that that I started to talk to her about the cosmetic services that she does. She began to tell me about the Botox and filler’s and I was instantly sold. I scheduled an appointment with her the following week to get my Botox done. The day of my Botox appointment she started to give me my Injections and I was so afraid of the frozen look but she assured me multiple times that it would not be that way. I had emailed her pictures two weeks later with the results and I was so ecstatic. I instantly scheduled an appointment for my mom with Dr. Kaveri and she instantly fell in love as well. I have nothing but amazing words for her. I highly highly highly recommend her!!!!

Dr. Karhade is the best! Shes very patient and sweet. She gave me her honest opinion as to what procedures would help me reach my goals and which would not. I’ve heard of doctors pushing patients into more than they were envisioning and this is definitely not the case with Dr. K.
