Plastic & Neuro Surgery
Plastic and neurosurgery are specialized medical disciplines that focus on enhancing physical appearance, reconstructing body structures, and treating neurological conditions. At London Ortho Hospital, we provide comprehensive plastic and neurosurgical services to help patients achieve their desired aesthetic goals and restore neurological function.
Plastic Surgery:
Plastic surgery encompasses various procedures aimed at improving the appearance and restoring functionality to different parts of the body. It includes both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures.
Types of Plastic Surgery:
Cosmetic Plastic Surgery : This type of surgery is performed to enhance aesthetic features and improve self-confidence. Common cosmetic procedures include rhinoplasty (nose reshaping), breast augmentation, facelifts, liposuction, and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck).
Reconstructive Plastic Surgery: Reconstructive plastic surgery focuses on repairing and restoring body structures affected by trauma, congenital abnormalities, or medical conditions. It includes procedures such as breast reconstruction after mastectomy, cleft lip and palate repair, scar revision, and skin grafting.
When to See the Doctor
If you have concerns about your physical appearance or require reconstructive surgery due to a medical condition or injury, it is advisable to consult with a plastic surgeon. They can evaluate your situation, discuss treatment options, and create a personalized plan to address your needs
Treatment and Surgery Options
Plastic surgery treatments vary depending on the specific goals and needs of the patient. Non-surgical options may include injectable fillers, Botox, or laser treatments for skin rejuvenation. Surgical procedures involve precise techniques to reshape or reconstruct body structures. Advanced technologies and surgical approaches are utilized to ensure optimal results with minimal scarring.
Neuro Surgery :
Neurosurgery focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions affecting the brain, spine, and peripheral nervous system. It deals with both surgical and non-surgical interventions to address neurological disorders.
Types of Neuro Surgery :
Brain Surgery + Spine Surgery : Spine surgery addresses conditions affecting the spinal column, including herniated discs, spinal deformities, spinal tumours, and spinal cord injuries. Surgical procedures may involve decompression, fusion, or stabilization of the spine to alleviate pain and restore mobility.
When to See the Doctor
If you experience symptoms such as persistent headaches, seizures, chronic back or neck pain, weakness, numbness, or difficulty with coordination, it is crucial to consult with a neurosurgeon. Early diagnosis and intervention can prevent further neurological damage and improve outcomes.
Treatment and Surgery Options
Neurological conditions may be managed with non-surgical treatments, including medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications. However, in cases where conservative measures are ineffective, surgery may be required. Neurosurgical procedures range from minimally invasive techniques to complex interventions, depending on the specific condition.
Rehabilitation and Recovery
Rehabilitation plays a vital role in the recovery process after plastic and neurosurgical procedures. Rehabilitation programs are tailored to the individual needs of patients and may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. These programs aim to restore function, improve strength, promote independence, and enhance the overall quality of life.
