The Dept. of Plastic & Microvascular Surgery, S.P.S. Hospitals Ludhiana observed Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Awareness Week from 18th till 23rd July 2016 on the occasion of World Plastic Surgery Day falling on 15th July 2016.

Dr. Ashish Gupta, Senior Consultant & Head, said that with the rising cost of surgical treatment many patients are denied quality and specialist care. We took the initiative of making care affordable at lower costs. Over 157 patients availed the facility of affordable plastic surgery in the form of discounted consultations and 25 patients underwent discounted surgeries during the week.

Dr Sundeep Kaur, Consultant Plastic Surgeon said that this exercise was done to bring awareness amongst the people about the various types of surgeries done by a plastic surgeon like hand injuries, facial trauma, burns, birth defects and all types of cosmetic surgeries like tummy tuck, liposuction, scar revision, rhinoplasties.

Mr Abhijit Singh, Project Leader Strategic Initiatives said that SPS Hospitals conducted People Connect Programmes in the form of Awareness talks in Industries, ladies clubs and for the patient attendants visiting the hospital by the plastic surgery team.

Hmmm

interesting thread.

very little is discussed about plastic surgery.

i am currently undergoing treatments with a plastic surgeon using CO2 lasers to get rid of a birthmark on my body. Long overdue as such treatments could'nt be done while i was pregnant.

its been an interesting journey. it started with a referral from my amazing GP to the dermatologist where after examination, i had super HD pictures taken and finally the plastic Surgeon+more pictures/examination. i also had a biopsy done. anyway, i am loving the results so far.

i wish i could share pictures of the mark 'before' and 'after'
