Professional experience I am involved in cosmetic surgery, particularly liposuction work since 2004 at Venkat Charmalaya-centre for advanced dermatology, Bangalore, India. Venkat Charmalaya is a prominent cosmetic dermatology centre in Bangalore, India. The centre performs various cosmetic treatments such as Liposuction, fat transfer, hair transplantation, threadlifts, breast reduction, acne scar surgeries, other reconstructive surgeries. It also performs various noninvasive cosmetic treatments such as Botox, fillers, microdermabrasion, thermal lift, chemical peels, laser hair removal etc. We have performed over 200 cases of liposuction, since 2004 and over 500 Follicular unit hair transplants. Male breast reduction is one of our important areas of focus. I have also practiced as an obstetrician and gynaecologist for 20 years in India and Gulf countries. I have experience in managing various complicated cases and emergencies, having worked at different hospitals of different types .The obstetric practice in the region where I worked provided many challenges, as grandmulti parity is very common and so are multiple cesarean sections. In fact, my dissertation for MRCOG was “an outcome of pregnancy in grandmultipara in Omani women”, and this paper won the best paper award in an international conference at Oman. I am well experienced in ultrasound and laparoscopy.
