Experts warn of risks in unsafe plastic surgeries
HYDERABAD: Surgeons emphasised the urgent need for safety in plastic surgeries, noting that negligence could lead to serious complications and infections. This was a key takeaway from the two-day SafePlast-2025 conference, held at T-Hub on August 9 and 10, which saw participation from over 120 plastic surgeons and dermatologists from across India. Speaking at the event, renowned Dubai-based senior plastic surgeon Dr Sanjay Parashar said, 'Plastic and aesthetic surgeries are highly complex. It's important to know how to address issues if they occur and to identify the root cause. Post-treatment infections are a risk, and preventing them is essential, he added. 'Liposuction, cosmetic surgeries, facial corrections (like nose, chin, cheeks), and hair transplants are extremely delicate and must be handled with utmost care, prioritising patient safety.' Dr Gurukarna Vemula, managing director of a plastic surgery centre, said it was important for patients to do a background check of the plastic surgeons they would visit for treatment. He cautioned that 'many problems arise when untrained practitioners perform such treatments. Some hair transplant patients develop scalp infections; Botox, fillers, and laser treatments can also have side effects. To avoid these, patients must choose the right doctor.'

Experts warn against untrained cosmetic procedures at SafePlast-2025 meet
Hyderabad: Despiterapid advances in medical aesthetics, fear of complications continues to deter many from undergoing hair transplants, laser treatments, and facial cosmetic surgeries. At the two-day SafePlast-2025 conference, which opened Saturday at T-Hub, over 120 plastic surgeons and dermatologists from across India — joined by overseas experts — addressed how to make such procedures safer. Renowned Dubai-based plastic surgeon Dr. Sanjay Parashar cautioned that even with full effort, aesthetic surgeries carry risks. 'Complications can occur despite precision. Proper training, not just book knowledge, is essential. Treatments like liposuction, facial corrections, and hair transplants require extreme care,' he said, stressing infection prevention and patient satisfaction as top priorities. Dr. Gurukarna Vemula, Managing Director of Personix Cosmetics & Plastic Surgery Centre, urged patients to verify doctors' credentials before treatment. 'Check for recognised degrees like MBBS, MD, MCh and state medical council registration. Avoid untrained practitioners, as botched hair transplants, Botox, and laser treatments can lead to infections and other side effects,' he warned.
