The Esthetic Clinics — Bengaluru (Koramangala)
Verification pending: less of the axis weight is sourced than the threshold requires, so no score is published yet.
Status: verification pending · last checked 29 August 2026
No crown: crowns require register-verified gates, never a clinic's own claim.
Summary
Multi-city cosmetic surgery and dermatology chain, co-founded by a named facial plastic/cosmetic surgeon and a named dermatologist, consulting at a partner hospital location in Koramangala. A National Accreditation Board for Hospitals search under this clinic's own name returned no record; the specialist-board and medical-licence registers for Karnataka could not be queried.
