If you were looking for a one-stop clinic to address your cosmetic concerns, you might try the newly launched Apollo Cosmetic clinic.

The clinic is an arm of the Apollo Hospitals group. A range of cosmetic procedures can be undergone at the clinic. They include hair restoration surgery (hair transplant); dermal filters and botox treatments to smooth out facial lines and scars, as well as to improve the look of specific parts of the body; liposuction to reduce fat collection on the hips, thighs, buttocks, abdomen, arms, under the chin, upper torso, etc; abdominoplasty or "tummy tuck" to make the abdomen more firm by removing excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen; gynecomastia treatment to take care of abnormally large mammary glands in males resulting in breast enlargement; breast reduction; breast augmentation to alter the size and shape of a woman's breasts; breast lift surgery or mastopexy to lift drooping or sagging breasts, scar corrections/revisions; facelift surgery for a more youthful appearance by correcting loose, sagging skin from the cheeks and neck; eyelid lift or blepharoplasty; lip reduction; otoplasty to alter the appearance of the external ears; and rhinoplasty to improve the function or the appearance of a human nose.

While some of the procedures like hair transplant can be generally done in 3-6 hours, under local anesthesia on an out-patient basis, other procedures like liposuction is done under general anesthesia and will require stay at the hospital. “Clients can get their doubts clarified over consultations”, says Dr. S. Arumugam, chief cosmetic surgeon, Apollo Cosmetic Clinic.
