About Our Aesthetic, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery Department

Plastic surgery at THANC isn't about superficial vanity — it's about helping people get their lives back after cancer, trauma, or birth defects. The Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery Department in Kilpauk, Chennai works alongside our head-and-neck cancer, breast oncology, and oral-maxillofacial teams to do the reconstruction that follows tumour removal — restoring face, jaw, breast, and tongue function so patients can speak, eat, smile, and look in the mirror without being defined by their illness. We see patients for breast reconstruction after cancer (immediate or delayed), head and neck reconstruction with microvascular free flaps after oral/throat cancer, facial trauma after road accidents, complex burn scar management and contracture release, cleft lip and palate care from infancy through adolescence, congenital hand deformities and traumatic hand injuries needing microsurgical repair, nerve and tendon reconstruction, scar revision for surgical or accidental scars, and selected aesthetic procedures where there's a clear functional or psychosocial need (rhinoplasty for breathing + appearance, post-massive-weight-loss body contouring, etc.).

Microsurgery — operating with a microscope on blood vessels and nerves smaller than 2mm — is what makes free-flap reconstruction possible. We use it for major head-and-neck cancer reconstruction (transferring forearm, fibula, or thigh tissue to rebuild the jaw or tongue), breast reconstruction with the patient's own tissue (DIEP/TRAM flaps), and complex hand or limb salvage cases. Cleft children get continuity of care — the same team from primary lip repair through palate, alveolar bone graft, speech therapy, and adolescent orthognathic refinements — so families don't have to start over with a new surgeon every few years. Please consult our team if you're scheduled for cancer surgery and want to know your reconstruction options before the operation, you have a complex burn scar that's causing tightness or limiting movement, you have a cleft child or adult who needs ongoing care, you've had a hand or facial injury that didn't heal well, or you have a scar that's affecting confidence or function. Located in central Chennai with easy access from across Tamil Nadu, we offer dependable, transparent, and affordable plastic and reconstructive surgical care — all under one roof.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I get the best plastic and reconstructive surgery in Chennai?
THANC Hospital in Kilpauk runs a senior-led Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery department in Chennai focused on reconstruction after cancer (head-neck, breast), trauma (facial, hand, complex burns), and birth defects (cleft lip + palate care from infancy through adolescence). Microvascular free-flap reconstruction is in-house — used for major head-neck cancer rebuilding (forearm/fibula/thigh tissue to jaw or tongue), breast reconstruction with patient's own tissue (DIEP/TRAM), and limb salvage. Cleft children get continuity of care from one team across all stages. Selected aesthetic procedures offered where there's clear functional or psychosocial need. Written, itemised estimate kept consistently below prevailing Chennai market rates.
What is the difference between plastic and cosmetic surgery?
Plastic surgery covers both reconstructive (restoring form or function after injury, cancer, or birth defects) and aesthetic procedures. At THANC, the main focus is reconstructive work.
Is cancer reconstruction done at the same time as removal?
In many cases, yes. Immediate reconstruction gives the best aesthetic outcome and often avoids a second operation. The approach depends on tumour characteristics and patient factors.
How is a cleft lip treated?
Cleft lip and palate care is staged over several years — from initial repair in infancy to speech therapy, dental care, and later refinements. A structured multidisciplinary team gives the best outcomes.
What is microvascular (free flap) reconstruction?
Free flap reconstruction transfers living tissue — with its blood supply — from one part of the body to another using microsurgery. It allows restoration of complex defects with excellent long-term results.
Will THANC give me a written estimate for reconstructive surgery?
Yes. After clinical evaluation and any needed imaging, our team shares a written, itemised estimate. THANC's rates are consistently below prevailing Chennai market rates.
