Dr. Saumya loves all things skin and is obsessed with protecting and preserving the largest organ of the body. As the director and co-founder of S&S Aesthetics – Cape Town’s newest medical skincare and aesthetics clinic – she strongly believes that healthy skin reflects overall wellness and wants nothing more, than for everyone to feel comfortable in their own skin.

As a passionate advocate for healthy, glowing skin, Dr. Saumya incorporates a combination of practical and actionable steps for her patients and takes great pleasure in seeing how her efforts can uplift their confidence and self-esteem. 

A perfectionist at heart, Dr. Saumya takes great pride in the strength and quality of her holistic approach, which considers all contributing factors to skin health, including extrinsic and intrinsic elements. Her bespoke, tailored skin treatments are backed up by clinical data and provide patients with comfort, reassurance, and contentment. 

Dr. Saumya was drawn to skin health because she believes everyone should love their skin, and that beauty comes from being happy and secure in one’s own skin. To feed her appetite for skin health, Dr. Saumya focuses on combining modern anti-aging and rejuvenating medical aesthetic treatments to provide a more youthful and natural look for all skin types

Despite starting out as a medical doctor more than ten years ago, Dr. Saumya’s professional journey has taken a fascinating turn and beauty has always been the common thread.  Aside from being a beauty influencer, public figure, and brand ambassador for various non-profit organisations, it was her crowning role as Mrs. India South Africa in 2018, that further fuelled her love of beauty and desire for nourishing, flawless skin. 

A recipient of several women’s leadership and empowerment awards, Dr. Saumya has also been featured in many magazines and television shows, both nationally and internationally, and recently qualified in her skin specialty, with a diploma in aesthetic medicine from The American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine (AAAM). 

An appreciation for the finer things in life transcends into Dr. Saumya’s personal life too. When she is not educating those around her about skin health and awareness, she is devouring diverse cultures and traditions while travelling the world with her family. Everyday evenings are spent unwinding to some gentle music or meditating, dining at upmarket eateries in and around Cape Town, or simply pampering her pet dogs.
