Comprehensive Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery
Plastic and cosmetic surgery includes a wide range of procedures designed either to reconstruct affected body parts or enhance appearance and proportions. Dr. GS Kalra provides personalised consultation to determine the most appropriate treatment based on the patient's condition, expectations and medical requirements.
Cosmetic & Aesthetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery aims to improve the appearance, balance and proportions of the face or body. Depending on individual requirements, treatment may include:
Facelift Surgery – Helps address signs of facial ageing and improve facial contours.
Rhinoplasty / Nose Surgery – Surgery to reshape or reconstruct the nose while considering facial balance and function.
Blepharoplasty / Eyelid Surgery – Addresses concerns involving the upper or lower eyelids and surrounding facial appearance.
Otoplasty / Ear Surgery – Corrects the shape, position or proportion of the ears.
Chin & Facial Contouring – Helps improve facial proportions and overall facial balance.
Liposuction – Removes localised deposits of excess fat to improve body contours.
Abdominoplasty / Tummy Tuck – Removes excess abdominal skin and may improve abdominal contour.
Breast Surgery – Includes procedures such as breast reduction, breast lift and breast reconstruction based on individual needs.
Gynecomastia Surgery – Surgical correction of enlarged male breasts.
Reconstructive Plastic Surgery
Reconstructive plastic surgery focuses on restoring form and function following trauma, disease, congenital conditions, burns or previous surgery.
Treatment may include:
Soft-Tissue Reconstruction
Facial Reconstruction
Post-Trauma Reconstruction
Post-Cancer Reconstruction
Scar Revision
Skin Grafting
Flap Reconstruction
Complex Wound Reconstruction
Treatment is planned according to the location, size and complexity of the affected area, with the objective of restoring function and achieving an appropriate aesthetic outcome.
Craniofacial Surgery
Craniofacial surgery deals with congenital and acquired conditions affecting the skull, face and facial structures. Dr. GS Kalra provides specialised consultation for patients requiring craniofacial and facial reconstructive surgery.
Craniofacial treatment may include:
Congenital facial deformity correction
Craniofacial reconstruction
Facial asymmetry correction
Cleft lip and palate surgery
Cleft and craniofacial deformity management
Facial trauma reconstruction
Correction of selected developmental abnormalities
Treatment is tailored according to the patient's age, condition, anatomy and functional requirements.
Cleft Lip & Palate Surgery
Cleft lip and cleft palate are congenital conditions that can affect the development and function of the lip, palate and surrounding facial structures.
Cleft surgery aims to improve function and facial structure and is generally planned according to the individual child's condition and stage of development. Comprehensive assessment is important because treatment can involve different stages of care as the child grows.
Microvascular & Microsurgery
Microsurgery uses specialised surgical techniques and magnification to repair or reconstruct very small blood vessels, nerves and tissues.
Microvascular reconstruction can be used in selected complex cases where tissue transfer is required to restore damaged or missing structures. Treatment may involve:
Free-flap reconstruction
Microvascular tissue transfer
Complex soft-tissue reconstruction
Nerve repair
Reconstructive procedures following trauma or disease
The exact technique depends on the affected area, tissue loss, overall health and reconstructive requirements.
Brachial Plexus Surgery
The brachial plexus is a network of nerves responsible for movement and sensation in the arm and hand. Injuries to these nerves can occur due to trauma and may result in weakness, loss of movement or altered sensation.
Brachial plexus treatment requires detailed assessment and may involve specialised reconstructive procedures such as nerve repair, nerve grafting or nerve transfer in selected patients.
Hand & Reconstructive Microsurgery
Complex injuries involving the hand, fingers, nerves, blood vessels, tendons or soft tissues may require specialised reconstructive surgery.
Treatment planning may include:
Hand reconstruction
Nerve repair
Tendon reconstruction
Soft-tissue reconstruction
Microvascular repair
Complex trauma reconstruction
The treatment approach depends on the type and severity of injury and the functional requirements of the patient.
Burn Reconstruction & Scar Treatment
Burn injuries can affect skin, soft tissue, movement and appearance. Plastic surgery plays an important role in both acute reconstruction and the management of long-term burn-related problems.
Treatment may include:
Burn scar management
Contracture release
Scar revision
Skin grafting
Flap reconstruction
Reconstructive surgery for functional limitation
The treatment plan is individualised according to the location, depth and extent of the burn injury.
Facial Trauma & Reconstruction
Facial injuries can involve skin, soft tissues, bones and other important structures. Reconstructive plastic surgery may help restore facial form and function following accidents, injuries or other trauma.
Treatment can involve facial soft-tissue reconstruction, scar revision, tissue repair and selected craniofacial reconstructive procedures depending on the nature of the injury.
Cancer Reconstruction
Reconstructive plastic surgery can be an important part of treatment for patients who have undergone surgery for certain cancers. Reconstruction may help restore tissues and structures affected by tumour removal.
Depending on the case, reconstructive options may include skin grafts, local flaps, regional flaps or microvascular free-flap reconstruction.
Scar Revision & Keloid Treatment
Scars may develop following injuries, burns, surgery or other skin conditions. Some scars can become thick, raised or restrictive and may affect appearance or movement.
Plastic surgery consultation can help determine suitable options for scar revision, keloid management and contracture correction based on the type and location of the scar.
Congenital Deformity Correction
Some patients are born with differences or deformities involving the face, head, limbs or other body structures. Plastic and reconstructive surgery may help improve both function and appearance in selected congenital conditions.
Treatment is planned individually after evaluating the patient's age, anatomy, development and specific condition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a plastic surgeon do?
A plastic surgeon specialises in reconstructive and, where appropriately trained, cosmetic procedures involving different parts of the body. Plastic surgery can address congenital conditions, trauma, burns, cancer-related tissue loss, functional problems and aesthetic concerns.
What is the difference between cosmetic and reconstructive surgery?
Cosmetic surgery primarily focuses on improving appearance, while reconstructive surgery focuses on restoring form and function affected by congenital conditions, trauma, burns, disease or previous surgery. Some procedures may involve both functional and aesthetic goals.
What is craniofacial surgery?
Craniofacial surgery involves the diagnosis and surgical management of selected conditions affecting the skull, face and related structures, including certain congenital deformities, facial trauma and reconstructive requirements.
What is microsurgery?
Microsurgery involves specialised surgical techniques performed with magnification to repair or connect very small blood vessels and nerves. It is commonly used in complex reconstructive procedures and selected tissue-transfer surgeries.
When should I consult a plastic surgeon?
A consultation may be appropriate for concerns involving cosmetic surgery, congenital deformities, scars, burns, trauma reconstruction, craniofacial conditions, hand injuries, soft-tissue defects or complex reconstructive requirements.
How is the right treatment selected?
Treatment depends on the patient's medical history, physical examination, condition, expectations and overall health. After assessment, the surgeon can explain appropriate treatment options, potential benefits, risks and expected recovery.
