Examples include cleft lip and palate repair, breast reconstruction following surgeries for breast cancer, and burn surgeries. Typically, reconstructive surgery is covered by most health insurance plans.
Reconstructive surgery is a major procedure and should be only be performed by trained and experienced plastic surgeons. At Skinzest, we have the expertise and equipment to give you the most comfortable environment and the best results for all your procedures.

Reconstructive surgeries can be performed at any age. Many deformities occur at birth and delaying such a surgery could be harmful to a child’s life and in more complicated cases, can even lead to death. Skinzest provides many reconstructive surgeries like cleft lip and palate surgery, eye reconstruction, facial trauma surgery, abnormal tearing correction and more.

Various deformities of the hand such as birth deformities, carpal tunnel syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis and Dupuytren’s contracture can be improved with hand surgeries so as to relieve the patients of pain and improve the strength and functionality of the wrist and fingers.
Foot surgeries are performed for people whose feet are affected by tumors, or by webbed or extra toes.

Scar revision surgeries are performed to minimize or improve the appearance of a scar and make it blend in more naturally with the surrounding skin. The procedure can range from topical treatments and minimally invasive procedures to surgical scar revision.
