Plastic surgery in India has a rich history dating back to ancient times, with Sushruta being considered the father of plastic surgery. His groundbreaking nasal reconstruction procedure, documented in the Sushruta Samhita, laid the foundation for what has become a thriving field today. Fast forward to the present, and India ranks among the top 10 countries for cosmetic procedures. Numerous leading surgeons are advancing the field through innovative techniques and research.
One such prominent figure is Dr. Vipul Nanda, a renowned Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeon in India. We had the pleasure of hosting him at Vaidam's office for an informative session on the latest aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries.
