Introduction: Dr K.D. Aneja was born in the holy city of Amritsar. He
did his super specialization in plastic and cosmetic surgery from one
of the best institute of India-PGIMER, Chandigarh. He offers a
complete range of modern aesthetic procedures and rejuvenation
techniques at his plastic surgery practice. He has extensive
experience in breast procedures like breast augmentation , breast
reduction. He is a visiting consultant at the following hospitals:
a. Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammoplasty)
Technically known as augmentation mammoplasty, it is a surgical
procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman's breast. Breast
implants come in two types, silicone and saline. Our goal is to create
enhanced and naturally appearing breasts. The incision can be made
either in the crease where the breast meets the chest, around the
areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple), in the armpit or
umbilicus. The implants can be placed beneath the chest wall muscle or
directly behind breast tissue. If your breasts are sagging, your
doctor may also recommend a breast lift
b. Breast Reduction/ Reduction Mammoplasty
Large breasts may be a cause for physical and mental discomfort. The
size and weight of large breasts can result in pain in the back and
neck, indentations from bra straps, skin rashes, improper posture
breathing problems and skeletal deformities. Breast reduction surgery
is usually done to provide physical relief from these symptoms. The
procedure does leave noticeable, permanent scars, although they'll be
covered by your bra or bathing suit. The goal is to give the woman
smaller, better-shaped breasts in proportion with the rest of her body
Women undergoing breast reduction probably represent the happiest
group of patients.
c. Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Over the years, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and the force of
gravity take their toll on a woman's breasts. A breast lift (Mastopexy)
is a procedure that lifts the breast, the nipple, and tightens the
skin of the breast. During your consultation, you will be asked
whether you like the volume of your breasts when you are wearing a
bra. If the answer is “yes”, then a breast lift (mastopexy) alone
would be indicated. If you find the volume of you breasts (with a bra
on) smaller than desired, then a breast augmentation with a breast
lift (mastopexy) would be indicated.
d. Breast Reconstruction
Imagine the mental state of a female who has been diagnosed with
“breast cancer”. The fear of breast removal along with the thought of
living with the deformity can send shivers down the spine. New medical
techniques have made it possible for plastic surgeons to create a new
breast. It can be done simultaneously with breast removal (Mastectomy)
or done at a later stage. It is a multistaged procedure. Various
options available are:
using your own tissues
Abdomen: TRAM
Back: Lattissimus dorsi
Using implants
e. Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)
Gynecomastia literally means “women-like breasts”. It affects an
estimated 40 to 60 percent of men. It may affect only one breast or
both. The procedure removes fat and/or glandular tissue from the
breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a
contoured chest that is flatter and firmer. If your gynecomastia
consists primarily of excessive fatty tissue, only liposuction will be
done to remove the excess fat. If there is excess glandular tissue, it
may need to be removed along with liposuction.
f. Correction of Inverted Nipples
This is a very distressing condition for the young girl. We perform
correction of inverted nipples through a small incision at the base of
the nipple. The nipple is then maintained in traction for several
weeks using a suture taped to the breast.
2. Body Contouring
a. Liposuction:
Body contouring by liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic
surgery procedures. It is designed to remove localized deposits of fat
and create an improved body contour and shape. Small diameter (2-5mm)
cannulas are introduced in the body to suck out fat. The best
candidates for liposuction are of relatively normal weight but have
pockets of excess fat in particular areas. Following areas can be
treated with liposuction:
Face and Neck
back
chest
abdomen and flank
arms
thighs
buttocks
calves and ankles
b. Abdominoplasty ("Tummy Tuck")
With age there is accumulation of fat deposits in the abdominal wall
and the abdominal wall becomes lax. The maximum abdominal protuberance
is in the lower abdomen. These alterations are especially common after
pregnancy, weight gain or loss, and previous surgical incisions.
Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that helps flatten and shape
the abdomen and waist by removing excess fat and skin and tightening
muscles. The procedure results in a youthful abdomen, enhancement of
the waistline, and improved uniformity in the contour of the lateral
view. With a balanced diet and regular exercise, results are long
lasting. People who intend to lose a lot of weight and women who plan
future pregnancies should postpone having a tummy tuck.
c. Mini-Abdominoplasty
Also known as a “Mini-Tummy Tuck”, it is reserved for those who have
only a limited amount of loose skin or stretch marks in the lower
abdomen or above the pubic bone. An incision which spans only the
width of the pubic area (similar to a C-section incision) is made.
d. Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) & Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)
Skin on the upper arms and upper inner thighs can become excessive,
loose and flabby from the effects of aging or after massive weight
loss. Extra skin and fat is removed from the upper arm and inner
thigh. Incision for brachioplasty is placed along the inner side of
the upper arm. Incisions for an inner thigh lift are placed in the
groins or along the inner side of the thighs. An inner thigh lift is
more commonly performed that an outer thigh lift.
e. Pectoral augmentation
Commonly referred to as "pec" implants, it is a surgical procedure
designed to add fullness, size, and shape to the male chest. A soft,
high-grade, solid silicone implant is inserted into a space created
under the pectoral muscles. Generally, scars are easily hidden in the
armpit area within the hair-bearing skin.
f. Buttock Augmentation
Commonly referred to as “butt implants”, it involves the surgical
insertion of artificial implants into the buttocks in order to enhance
their size and shape. The incision is usually made in the buttock
crease where scars are not noticeable. The implants are placed either
under the gluteus maximus muscle, or on top of the buttocks.
g. Calf Augmentation
In this procedure calf implants of a variety of shapes, sizes, and
contours, are inserted over the existing calf muscles - Gastrocnemius
and Soleus Muscles - to achieve fuller and shapelier calves. Women get
calf augmentation to get curvaceous and sexy legs. Men get it in order
to make them look as if they have worked out.
3. Facial Rejuvenation
a. Botox®:
It is used to reduce or eliminate the appearance of facial wrinkles.
BOTOX injections block nerve impulses, weakening muscles to relax
wrinkles and give the face a rejuvenated look. It is injected under
the skin into areas surrounding the eyes, forehead and mouth to smooth
crow's feet, frown and worry lines, and lines on the neck. BOTOX® may
also be useful for migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and eye and
neck muscle spasms.
b. Face Lift(Rhitidectomy)
The actual word, rhytidectomy, which is the formal term for a
facelift, comes from the Greek words "to remove wrinkles". A face lift
pulls the skin of the face up and back and the excess of the skin is
removed. Similarly, a neck lift pulls the skin of the neck up and
back, and the excess of the skin is removed. It is important to
realize though that a facelift (or rhytidectomy) can't stop the aging
process, but when used by itself or with other procedures (such as a
forehead lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping) your face can be
made to look more healthy, vibrant and youthful. You can simulate the
effect of the face and neck lift yourself in front of the mirror.
Simply, pull your face and neck skin up and back and notice the
immediate improvement. We usually place the incisions where they can
be hidden by your hair and behind your ears.
c. Eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty)
With age, the skin of the upper eyelids stretches and droops over the
upper eyelid. The lower eyelid skin also stretches and the fat behind
the skin bulges producing bags under your eyes .Blepharoplasty
includes removal of excess skin and fat to correct puffy, sagging or
tired looking eyes. In select patients, excess fat from the lower
eyelid may be transposed downward to correct the undesirable hollow
region below. In patients where skin excess is not there,
transconjunctival blepharoplasty is performed, where the incisions on
the lower lid are done entirely inside the eyelid.
d. Nose Reshaping (Rhinoplasty)
Nose reshaping surgery (rhinoplasty) can help enhance the appropriate
balance between the nose and facial features. For each face it takes a
different nose to create an appropriate harmony and balance. It offers
many variations in nose shape: increase or decrease in size of the
nose, change in shape of the tip or bridge, narrowing of the nostrils
or change in the angle between the nose and upper lip. For most
rhinoplasty patients, we place incisions inside the nose. In some
patients a small incision may need to be placed at the base of the
nose.
e. Lip Augmentation/Enhancement
One of the most sexy and youthful features of the face are the lips.
As we age our lips lose their fullness and volume. It can be done by
injecting collagen or by fat which is taken from your own body.
Luscious, plump, and full lips are signs of youth, health, and
fertility.
4. Hair Transplantation
Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Transfer)
Hair disorders are not life threatening, but have profound
psychological impact on a person. In the overwhelming majority of
males with hair loss, the cause is hereditary androgenetic alopecia,
more commonly known as “male pattern baldness.” Hair restoration
surgery (FUT) offers a permanent, living solution to lost scalp hair.
It provides own natural, growing hair, which needs no more care than
the ordinary washing, styling, and trimming.
Hair transplantation involves removing permanent hair-bearing skin
from the back and/or sides of the scalp (donor area). Then, using
magnification, the tissue is dissected into follicular unit grafts
(containing 1–4 hairs) and multi-follicular unit grafts (containing
3–6 hairs each). These small grafts are then meticulously planted into
the bald or thinning area of the scalp (recipient area). The grafted
hairs will often start to grow by 10–16 weeks after the procedure and
will continue to grow for most, if not all, of one’s life. The main
reason for widespread acceptance of FUT is in ensuring a totally
natural result.
5. Genital Rejuvenation
a. Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty reduces the size and reshapes the inner lips of the
outside of the vagina: Labia Minora, or the outer lips: Labia Majora.
Many women develop stretching and elongation of the labia minora as a
result of childbirth or with aging. Some women develop very full and
large Labia Majora (outer lips) as a result of weight gain.
b. Penile Lengthening
Approximately one-third to one-half of the penis is inside the body,
and is internally attached to the undersurface of the pubic bone.
Penis lengthening involves the release of the fundiform ligament and
the suspensory ligament that attaches the 2 erectile bodies to the
pubic bone. Most men who have undergone this surgery feel today quite
satisfied and more suitable for leading a happy and fulfilling sexual
life.
6. Reconstructive
a. Scar Revision
Scars follow after any kind of trauma to the skin-be it accidents or
surgery. Many variables can affect the severity of scarring, including
the site, size and depth of the wound, the blood supply to the area,
the color of your skin, and the direction of the scar. While no scar
can be removed completely, the appearance can be improved, thus making
them less obvious.
b. Cleft Lip and Palate
It is a type of congenital deformity of the lip and palate where the
various parts fail to fuse. This type of deformity is sometimes
referred to as a cleft. Cleft lip is usually treated at the age of 3
months. Cleft palate is treated at the age of 1 year. Other congenital
anomalies must be ruled out before undertaking the procedure.
c. Defects of the ear
The ear may be congenitally absent, rudimentary or cup shaped. If it
is absent, the new ear is preferably constructed at the age of 6
years. It is made from the costal cartilage (cartilage of the ribs).
The final appearance requires 3-4 operations.
d. Post burn Deformities
There can be contracture formation after burns. These may restrict
movement in addition to looking ugly. The contractures are surgically
released and grafting of the raw areas is done
