Plastic Surgeon Doctors in India

When Should You See a Plastic Surgeon?

A Plastic Surgeon specializes in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. Reconstructive procedures restore form and function after injury or disease, while cosmetic procedures enhance appearance.

• Burn injuries requiring skin grafting
• Birth defects — cleft lip/palate, hand deformities
• Breast reconstruction after cancer surgery
• Post-accident facial or hand injuries
• Non-healing wounds or pressure sores
• Consideration of cosmetic procedures — rhinoplasty, liposuction, etc.
• Keloid or hypertrophic scars causing functional problems

Reconstructive plastic surgery is a medical necessity, not purely cosmetic. Insurance typically covers reconstructive procedures but not cosmetic ones.
