Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, a pioneer in cutting-edge medical care, recently organized a significant press conference in Srinagar. Led by Dr. Shahin Nooreyezdan, Senior Consultant in Cosmetic, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the event brought attention to the remarkable story of an acid attack survivor whose life was forever changed through advanced surgical expertise and compassionate care. This inspiring narrative showcased the hospital’s commitment to restoring not just physical well-being but also dignity and hope for survivors of trauma.
The press conference delved into the survivor’s medical journey and the critical role played by Dr. Shahin Nooreyezdan in her recovery. The survivor, a young woman from Srinagar, was attacked with acid in January 2013, resulting in severe burns on the left side of her face, including the periorbital region, eyelids, and the dorsum of her right hand. After initial treatment at Government Medical College, Srinagar, she was referred by Dr. Sameer Kaul, Apollo Hospitals for treatment by Dr. Shahin Nooreyezdan. Over the course of her treatment, the hospital’s expert team successfully performed complex reconstructive surgeries, highlighting their unparalleled expertise in restoring both form and function for such challenging cases.
The patient underwent a comprehensive reconstructive approach utilizing cutting-edge techniques and state-of-the-art facilities. A notable aspect of their treatment involved Cryolipolysis, an innovative method traditionally employed for fat reduction but increasingly recognized for its potential in tissue repair and inflammation reduction. In this case, Cryolipolysis was applied to aid in scar tissue management and promote healing, offering a novel approach to burn care.
Additionally, Cryotherapy for Scars, Facial Recontouring, Surgical Facelift, and Necklift were integral components of the treatment plan. Throughout the patient’s journey, the hospital’s expert team successfully executed complex reconstructive surgeries, demonstrating their exceptional expertise in restoring both the aesthetic appearance and functional capabilities of the affected areas.
The event also emphasized the importance of raising awareness about acid attack survivors, the psychological and physical scars they endure, and the need for specialized care to help them rebuild their lives. Dr. Shahin Nooreyezdan discussed the advancements in plastic and reconstructive surgery that enable survivors to regain their confidence and lead fulfilling lives.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Shahin Nooreyezdan, Senior Consultant, Cosmetic, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, said, “Our role goes beyond just treating physical injuries; it’s about restoring dignity, confidence, and hope. Each survivor we treat embodies extraordinary strength, and we are committed to helping them reclaim their lives through the latest advancements in plastic and reconstructive surgery. The transformation we witness in these individuals not only highlights our medical expertise but also reaffirms the importance of compassionate care in healing both the body and the spirit.”
