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.

Hyd: Two-day 'SafePlast-2025' begins
Hyderabad, Aug 9 (UNI) The two-day 'SafePlast-2025' conference began at T-Hub in the city today. Over 120 plastic surgeons and dermatologists from across India are participating in this, with some joining online from abroad. Twenty-five senior plastic surgeons from India and overseas shared insights on various topics to raise awareness. Speaking at the event, renowned Dubai-based senior plastic surgeon Dr. Sanjay Parashar said: 'Plastic and aesthetic surgeries are highly complex. Even when we give 100 per cent effort, results may not always be perfect, and unexpected complications can arise. It's important to know how to address issues if they occur, and to identify the root cause'. "Performing surgeries based only on book knowledge without proper training is wrong. Only after complete training can we treat patients safely. Treatments done by plastic surgeons and dermatologists are different from other fields," he said. 'Our goal should be to provide full satisfaction to patients seeking to enhance beauty or correct flaws-never to worsen their appearance. Post-treatment infections are a risk, and preventing them is essential. 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 Sanjay added Dr. Gurukarna Vemula, Managing Director of Personix Cosmetics & Plastic Surgery Centre, said: 'Patients should first decide whom to approach for such treatments. They should check doctors' profiles, websites, and registrations with state bodies like the Telangana Medical Council'. Verify degrees like MBBS, MD, MCh- these are credible qualifications. Be cautious about 'fellowship titles like FISS without proper recognition', he said. 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, he said. In India, training in aesthetic surgery still needs improvement. We must increase training programs and ensure Botox, fillers, lasers, and hair transplants are performed with the highest safety. Plastic surgery is not just about beauty—it can save lives in many cases, Dr Gurukarna added. Despite rapid advancements in technology and medical science, many people still hesitate when it comes to hair transplants, laser treatments, and facial cosmetic surgeries. The main reason is fear- fear of what might go wrong. This fear is not baseless; in some cases, such treatments have led to infections and various complications. The mushrooming of fake doctors and the lack of proper skills among some practitioners are major causes, speakers noted.
