Facial paralysis surgery, also known as facial reanimation surgery, is a medical procedure aimed at restoring movement and function to the muscles of the face that have been affected by paralysis. Facial paralysis can be caused by various factors, including nerve damage, trauma, infections, tumors, or neurological conditions. The specific surgical approach used depends on the underlying cause and the severity of the paralysis. There are several surgical techniques available, and a skilled surgeon will tailor the procedure to the individual patient's needs. Some common surgical options include: Nerve Repair/Transfer: This involves repairing or transferring nerves to restore communication between the brain and facial muscles. The surgeon may take a healthy nerve from another part of the body and connect it to the paralyzed facial nerve to bypass the damaged area. Muscle Transfer: In this procedure, muscles from other parts of the body are moved to the face to replace or support the paralyzed facial muscles. The transplanted muscle may be taken from the thigh, abdomen, or other locations where its function is not critical. Gracilis Muscle Transfer: The gracilis muscle, which is one of the muscles responsible for bending the knee, can be used to recreate a smile. This procedure is often referred to as "smile surgery" and is suitable for some cases of facial paralysis. Cross-Facial Nerve Graft: This technique involves using a nerve from the non-paralyzed side of the face to provide input to the paralyzed side. Over time, the nerve fibers may grow and restore some facial movement. Botulinum Toxin (Botox) Injections: While not a surgical procedure, Botox injections can be used to weaken certain overactive facial muscles and provide a more balanced facial appearance.

Skin tags are painless elevated skin nodules. They are attached to the skin by a thin stalk. Usually, it goes unnoticed until of sufficient size. People often try to pull them which is not advisable. Skin tags of sufficient size may bleed. Moles are elevated pigmented nevi. A close watch is required for any changes in size, shape, and color. Fair-skinned people are at greater risk of skin cancers. Most of the time it’s a long-standing lesion with only cosmetic problems. We offer pain-free and scarless removal of skin tags and moles. Lesion of bigger size may leave an esthetic scar.

Chin surgery, also known as genioplasty or mentoplasty, is a cosmetic or reconstructive surgical procedure focused on enhancing the appearance and contour of the chin. It aims to achieve a more balanced facial profile by altering the size, shape, or position of the chin. The surgery can be performed for various reasons, including: Chin augmentation: This involves increasing the size and projection of a receding or weak chin using implants or bone advancement techniques. It helps in improving facial harmony and creating a more defined jawline. Chin reduction: For individuals with an overly prominent or large chin, the procedure can involve reshaping the bone to reduce the size and achieve a more proportional facial structure. Correction of asymmetry: Chin surgery can address facial asymmetry caused by developmental issues, injury, or congenital conditions, helping to create a more symmetrical appearance. Correcting bite problems: In some cases, chin surgery can be combined with jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) to correct dental occlusion and functional issues related to the jaw and bite. The procedure is typically performed under anesthesia, and the specific techniques used may vary depending on the individual's unique needs and goals. Recovery times can vary, but patients can usually expect some swelling and discomfort for a few weeks after the surgery.

Facelift surgery, also known as Rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure that can help to improve the appearance of sagging or drooping skin on the face. Facelifts can be performed on both men and women, and are often done in order to correct the effects of aging. There are a variety of different techniques that can be used during a facelift, and the specific method that is used will depend on the individual's needs and goals. In general, however, the goal of facelift surgery is to tighten the skin and underlying tissues, resulting in a more youthful appearance. One of the most common types of facelift surgery is a superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) lift. This technique involves making incisions in the hairline, and then lifting and tightening the skin and underlying tissues. Another common type of facelift is a deep plane facelift. This technique involves making incisions below the hairline, and then lifting and tightening the skin and deeper layers of underlying tissues. Deep plane facelifts are often used to correct more significant signs of aging, such as sagging cheeks or a drooping jawline. Facelifts can be combined with other procedures, such as eyelid surgery or brow lift surgery, in order to achieve the desired results. The surgery typically takes between two and four hours to complete, and patients may experience some swelling and bruising after the procedure. Most people will need to take approximately one week off from work in order to recover from the surgery. If you are considering facelift surgery, visit us for a consultation.

Non-surgical face lift is the use of both fillers and neurotoxin to give a natural-looking youthful appearance.

As oral and maxillofacial surgeons, we are trained to diagnose and treat all facial bone fractures and soft tissue trauma. Many times we are the first surgeons to attend to facial injuries after the patient is stable. Most of this requires hospital admission and general anesthesia to treat. Consultation for the same is provided at our clinic.

Botox (Neuromodulator) Injection Neurotoxins are drugs that block the action of nerves on the muscle thus paralyzing the muscle. Neurotoxin injections or more commonly referred to as neuromodulator injections are used to even out wrinkles on the face. These wrinkles are a sign of aging because of continuous muscle action and loss of skin elasticity. This was a chance finding when treating a patient with strabismus. Neurotoxin injection is the most common cosmetic treatment worldwide. The doctor analyses carefully and provides a safe and pain-free injection. We aim to achieve the best natural result for you. Too much injection can give the appearance of a plastic face.

Facial fillers are used to restore lost volume on the face, to reduce deep wrinkles, or for skin rejuvenation. The most commonly used fillers are HA(Hyaluronic acid). The physical properties of fillers vary with their use. Fat harvested from people’s own bodies can also be used as fillers. Both fat and HA are temporary fillers. HA fillers last more than fat. Amount of fat required for same effect is more than HA. Liquid silicone is used as a permanent filler. It is not recommmended now a days for the same reason. We use FDA approved fillers and give naturally looking young appearence to the patient. Most Common Areas Patient OPT For Fillers Are Lips Cheeks Under eye

Surgical scar revision is done at our clinic to give an esthetic scar so that it is not visible easily and from a distance. There is not a surgery that is scarless but a good surgery gives an esthetic scar which is inconspicuous. Scar revision is usually done to improve trauma scars and less frequently to improve surgical scars. Some patients respond aggressively to a wound thus giving an unsightly scar. These patients have an inherent tendency for it. These are not ideal candidates but less than perfect results can be achieved with the help of medications and other procedures.

Brow and forehead lift as the name suggest is to elevate the eyebrows to a more suitable position and tighten the forehead skin. It is also referred as upper face lift. A small incision direct eyebrow lift can also be performed but leaves an noticeable faint scar. Eyebrow can also lifted by suture suspension but it does not last long. We prefer to do a open eyebrow and forehead lift by a incision through the hair thus making it hidden. It gives better results by treating entire forehead.

Facial Gender affirmation surgery is a set of procedures intended to feminize or masculinize the faces of transgender individuals. Usually, it is to feminize the face when the transgender person decides to transition to trans-woman. In India, transgender is recognized as the third gender. As of the 2011 census, there is almost 5 lakh transgender living in India. Transgender medicine is slowly being recognized as a required and important part of medicine and society. Earlier when the transgender person decided to transition to trans-woman, genital reassignment/sex reassignment was the most sought and advised procedure. With time people have realized that gender is first known through the face of the person. FFS is done so that others recognize and respond to the patients face as the face of a woman! Full FFS Involves Following Procedures: Correction Of The Hairline By Scalp Advance Contouring The Forehead Brow Lift Rhinoplasty Cheek Implants Resection Of The Buccal Fat Lip Lift And Lip Augmentation With Dermis Graft Mandible Angle Reduction And Taper Genioplasty Thyroid Cartilage Shave
