Founder's Note
Why We're Building Atmos Derm: A Note from Dr. Jenny Mathew
At Atmos Derm, we believe healthy skin is the After 18 years of practicing dermatology — Fifteen years of them leading Lisa Skin Clinic to become Calicut's most trusted aesthetic center — I've learned something crucial: clinical excellence isn't about having the most machines or the biggest clinic. It's about how you make people feel when they're at their most vulnerable.
When we started Lisa Skin Clinic, everyone told us Kerala wasn't ready for medical-grade aesthetics. They said patients just wanted cheap facials, not dermatologist-driven protocols. But we proved them wrong by staying stubbornly committed to one principle: every treatment must be rooted in science, personalized to the individual, and delivered with genuine care.
Now, with Atmos Derm, we're taking that same philosophy and building something even more focused.
The One-Size-Fits-All Model is Broken
We've seen thousands of patients walk in after wasting money on generic treatments that were never right for their skin type, their lifestyle, or their actual concern. At Atmos Derm, we're not offering a menu of 50 procedures. We're offering protocols — curated combinations of 2-3 treatments that work synergistically, because that's how skin actually responds.
Technology is Only as Good as the Hands Using It
During my tenure at Lisa Skin Clinic, we were the first in Kerala to introduce BB Glow Mesotherapy, Stellar Duo HIFU, and Coolwaves ONDA, DEKA REDTOUCH, DELEO CRISTAL PRO, DELEO CRISTAL FIT, DELEO CRISTAL SKIN, Zimmer CRYO7, most advanced imaging with RealWiz from Quantificare. But here's what we've learned: having the machine means nothing if you don't understand the histology behind how skin reacts to it. At Atmos Derm, every piece of technology is selected based on how well we can control the outcome, not how impressive it looks on Instagram.
The First Consultation is Everything
We can diagnose most skin conditions in 90 seconds, but We spend 30 minutes on the first consultation because We're not just looking at your skin—I'm listening to your story. When did you first notice the pigmentation? What products have you tried? How much sun did you get as a teenager? That context is what separates a prescription from a protocol. At Atmos Derm, every patient gets that same deep-dive consultation.
The Future is Preventive, Not Reactive
At Lisa Skin Clinic, we built our reputation treating acne scars, melasma, and hair loss, Non surgical fat reduction, non invasive aesthetics, and Threadlifts and INjectables.. At Atmos Derm, we're leading with barrier-first philosophy: repair the skin barrier first, then treat the symptom.
Legacy Means Responsibility
Lisa Skin Clinic became Calicut's go-to because we never compromised on safety. Every device is FDA-approved, every product is dermatologist-tested, and every staff member is trained to the highest standard. At Atmos Derm, that legacy continues—but now we have the freedom to be even more selective.
After 18 years, we know what works and what doesn't. we know which technologies deliver and which are just expensive toys. we know that the most important thing in a clinic isn't the machine—it's the trust between board certified dermatologists and patient. At Atmos Derm, we're building that trust from day one
