FAQs
Answers, Honestly
Cost, pain, downtime, safety – the questions patients in Kolkata ask us every day
How much does rhinoplasty cost in Kolkata?
Rhinoplasty in Kolkata typically varies with the complexity of the deformity, whether cartilage grafting or septal correction is needed, anaesthesia and hospital stay. A written, itemised estimate is provided after examination — we never quote a price without assessing you.
How painful is liposuction?
Liposuction is done under anaesthesia, so the procedure itself is painless. Afterwards most patients describe a deep-bruise soreness for 3 to 5 days, controlled with oral medication and a compression garment.
What is recovery after gynecomastia surgery like?
Most men return to desk work in 3 to 5 days wearing a compression vest, resume light cardio at 2 to 3 weeks and full weight training at 6 weeks. Scars are small and placed at the areolar border.
Are breast implants safe?
Modern cohesive silicone implants from established manufacturers have a strong long-term safety record. Risks such as capsular contracture, rupture and rare implant-associated conditions are discussed in detail, along with a monitoring schedule.
How long is tummy tuck recovery?
Expect 2 weeks off work, drains removed within the first week, upright walking from day one, and full exercise at 6 to 8 weeks. Final contour settles by 3 to 6 months.
Is plastic surgery safe?
When performed by a qualified plastic surgeon in an accredited theatre with proper anaesthesia and screening, complication rates are low. Safety comes from patient selection, protocol and honest limits on what is done in one sitting.
What qualifications should a plastic surgeon have in India?
Look for MCh or DNB in Plastic Surgery after MS General Surgery, valid medical council registration, and hospital operating privileges. Prof (Dr.) Souvik Adhikari holds MS, MCh (Plastic Surgery) with over 17 years of academic and clinical experience.
Will my results look natural?
Natural results are the core philosophy here. Techniques and dimensions are chosen for your frame, and we will decline requests that would look disproportionate.
Do you offer video consultations?
Yes. Video consultations are available for patients across India and abroad, with an in-person examination scheduled before surgery.
Are consultations confidential?
Completely. Records, photographs and identity are protected, and photographs are never published without separate written consent.
Can men have cosmetic surgery here?
Yes. Gynecomastia surgery, HD liposuction, rhinoplasty, hair-line and jawline procedures form a large part of the male practice.
What is the minimum age for cosmetic surgery?
Most cosmetic procedures need skeletal maturity, usually 18 years. Otoplasty is an exception and is often best performed in children aged 5 to 7.
How do I prepare for surgery?
Stop smoking and nicotine for at least four weeks, pause blood-thinning supplements as advised, complete investigations, arrange leave and a home carer, and fast as instructed.
Will I need to stay in hospital?
Minor procedures are day-care. Body contouring and breast surgery usually need one night; larger combined procedures may need two.
When can I fly after surgery?
Short flights are generally allowed after 7 to 10 days for minor surgery, and 2 to 3 weeks after major body contouring, with DVT precautions.
Do you use drains?
Drains are used selectively where fluid collection is likely, such as tummy tuck or large breast reduction, and are usually removed within 3 to 5 days.
How visible will my scars be?
Scars are placed in creases, hairlines or areolar borders wherever possible. With silicone gel, taping and sun protection, most mature to fine pale lines by 9 to 12 months.
Can I combine two procedures?
Often yes, when anaesthesia time and safety allow. We cap combined operating time rather than pushing a marathon single session.
Is liposuction a weight loss treatment?
No. Liposuction reshapes stubborn, diet-resistant fat pockets in people near their stable weight. It is not a substitute for weight loss.
How much fat can be removed safely?
The safe volume depends on your body weight and comorbidities. Very large volumes are staged across sittings rather than forced into one.
Will fat come back after liposuction?
Treated fat cells do not return, but remaining cells can enlarge with weight gain. Stable weight preserves the result.
At what age should I consider a facelift?
Most patients benefit between 45 and 65, but the trigger is tissue laxity rather than a birthday. Earlier, less invasive options are discussed first.
Does insurance cover plastic surgery?
Reconstructive surgery after trauma, burns, cancer or congenital deformity is often covered. Purely cosmetic procedures are not. We help with documentation and pre-authorisation.
How soon can I see results?
Contour changes appear at 3 to 4 weeks, with 80 percent of swelling gone by 3 months and the final result at 6 months.
Can I breastfeed after breast surgery?
Breastfeeding is usually possible after augmentation and many reduction techniques, though it cannot be guaranteed. This is planned around your family plans.
What anesthesia will I have?
General anaesthesia, sedation or local anaesthesia depending on the procedure, decided with the anaesthetist after pre-operative assessment.
What if I am not happy with my result?
You are reviewed for a full year. Minor refinements are discussed openly, and revision policy is explained transparently before surgery.
Do you treat international patients?
Yes. Medical tourism patients receive coordinated scheduling, airport transfer guidance, accommodation suggestions and remote follow-up.
How do I book a consultation?
