The ASPS logo

ASPS, founded in 1931, are one of the world’s largest organizations for cosmetic surgeons. All the doctors certified by the ASPS, are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

The most commonly performed surgeries are:

Reconstruction of breast:

Reconstruction of the breast involves surgery to help the patient regain his normal breast size.

Reduction of the breast size

This process is also called mammaplasty, used for bringing the breast size to normal and making it proportionate with the rest of the body. Large breasts can be a cause of discomfort and very painful for a woman. In this process excess fat, skins and granular tissues are removed to give the breast a normal shape.

Cleft lip or separation of lips:

It is a condition very common among the babies who are not born yet. It is a condition when the upper lip and the mouth are not able to develop fully. The cosmetic surgery is the best remedy for separating the upper lift or crown of the mouth.

Surgery of the hand:

Hand is a very vital part of our body. Any pain, swelling, or injury impairs our daily functioning. The cosmetic surgeries help to bring back the hands and fingers in their normal form. The hands get injured as a result of the birth defects, or as a result of some shock. Hand surgery can also provide relief in case of rheumatoid arthritis and Dupuytren’s contracture.

Revision of scars

The cosmetic surgeries help to remove scar marks left behind by the pimple and acnes. This helps the patient to regain his self esteem.
