Kaya Clinic launches Artiqa, a cutting-edge body contouring technique
By Sumita Chakraborty, Editor-in-Chief, TheGlitz
Framed by the shimmering skyline of Mumbai, I found myself at the dazzling unveiling of Artiqa by Kaya Clinic… a resplendent affair held on a golden, sun-drenched afternoon where science met sophistication, and beauty met purpose. The sunlight danced off the glass façades around us, casting a warm, radiant glow over an event that felt as elevated as the innovation it celebrated.
Known as India’s foremost authority in clinical skincare and wellness, Kaya Clinic has now carved a bold new path in body contouring with the introduction of Artiqa, a cutting-edge, Italian-engineered device set to revolutionize non-invasive body contouring across the country. And, as the Editor-in-Chief, TheGlitz, I was delighted to be among the select few invited to this impeccably orchestrated event. From its luxe ambiance to its future-forward ethos, the launch embodied everything Artiqa represents… innovation steeped in clinical credibility and a holistic approach to transformation.
Meeting Kaya Clinic’s Dynamic Dr Aparna
I had the chance to reconnect with the truly inspiring Dr. Aparna Santhanam, Head Dermatologist and VP of Kaya Clinic, who is clearly steering the brand into a new era. “We created Artiqa for the time-starved yet results-driven individual,” she shared. “It’s a science-backed, dermatologist-supervised solution that delivers real transformation without pain.”
What is the art of body contouring?
Artiqa, as the doctor explained, is the kind of revolution the modern Indian aesthetic space has been waiting for. Combining thermal hot and cold treatments with Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS), it offers fast, visible results without any downtime. Say goodbye to surgical risks, and hello to inch-loss, cellulite smoothing, skin tightening… even postpartum muscle recovery, all while sipping on cucumber water.
With built-in smart temperature sensors, the device tailors every session to your body’s needs, making it ideal for fitness lovers, new moms, or anyone looking to feel more empowered in their skin. Whether you’re targeting stubborn fat on your thighs, arms, or abdomen, or indulging in a rejuvenating cryofacial, Artiqa is your go-to non-invasive glow-up.
And then came the glitz & glam
Enter ‘The Royals’ Boss Woman Bhumi Pednekar, Bollywood’s beloved powerhouse and unapologetic body positivity icon. Dressed in effortless white luxe, Bhumi lit up the room with her presence and charming smile.
She started by insisting that Kaya was always a part of her body positive journey. Adding, “What I love about Kaya is that they don’t sell perfection, they encourage progress. Artiqa is a step towards embracing your body, with science. I am thrilled to launch Artiqa, a cutting-edge body contouring treatment at Kaya, a brand that’s consistently pushed boundaries in innovative skin, hair, and body solutions in India. As a long-time client, I’m delighted to be associated with Kaya’s pursuit of excellence,” she said, as she received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Dr Aparna and posed for the paps.
Further Insights
Speaking at the launch, Dr. Aparna Santhanam, Head Dermatologist and Vice President at Kaya, said: “In a world where time is short and expectations are high, Artiqa is a true game-changer. It provides holistic, evidence-based solutions for today’s aesthetic concerns with no pain and no downtime, just real transformation.”
Also present was Nishant Nayyar, Kaya’s Vice President and Head of Marketing, who shared powerful insights: “With obesity becoming a growing health concern, the need for safe, effective, and medically supervised solutions has never been more urgent. Artiqa is Kaya’s answer to this challenge, offering advanced, non-invasive body contouring for those seeking real results without the risks of surgery. Years ago, Kaya pioneered body contouring services in India and saw strong adoption from our customers. With Artiqa, we take that legacy forward by once again being the first to introduce a cutting-edge global innovation tailored to Indian needs. It reflects our deep commitment to preventive wellness and our vision of a fitter, healthier India.”
As public conversations around sustainable self-care grow louder, Artiqa is perfectly timed. It addresses real body concerns with real solutions… no gimmicks, just good science. With Kaya’s clinical legacy and a futuristic vision, this launch isn’t just a win for beauty, it’s a win for wellness.
TheGlitz Avers
As the event ended and I stepped out into the sunny Mumbai afternoon, a quiet thrill lingered, a sense that I had just witnessed the beginning of something transformative. …Because this moment, this launch, wasn’t just about contouring curves… it was about reshaping beauty. About wellness. About self.
Besides that, it was an absolute delight to reconnect with the ever-inspiring Dr. Aparna Santhanam, whose vision and grace continue to steer Kaya into bold, uncharted territory. Equally wonderful was meeting the effortlessly radiant Bhumi Pednekar, a true torchbearer of body positivity and inner strength, whose presence added a distinct kind of power to the evening. And a special mention to Dr. Sunita Naik, whose passion for integrative care and clinical excellence was deeply refreshing… a short conversation with her added yet another layer of depth to the conversation around holistic wellness.
As the afternoon unfolded with promise, one thing was clear: Artiqa isn’t just a treatment. It’s a movement. And Kaya Clinic, yet again, is ahead of the curve.
