Dr. Srikanth V is Consultant - Plastic, Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery at Manipal Hospital, Old Airport Road, Bengaluru. His qualifications include MBBS, MS, DNB, FRCS and MCh, with a practice that combines reconstructive, microsurgical, hand and aesthetic procedures.

His clinical work includes microsurgery and super-microsurgery, hand surgery, breast reconstruction and cosmetic surgery. Manipal also lists liposuction, abdominoplasty, rhinoplasty, breast augmentation and reduction, hair transplantation, fillers and botulinum-toxin procedures among the services associated with his current profile.

Dr. Srikanth is affiliated with professional organisations including the Association of Plastic Surgeons of India, Association of Surgeons of India, Indian Society for Surgery of the Hand and Association of Breast Surgeons of India. He speaks English, Kannada, Tamil, Hindi and Telugu.

For reconstructive or cosmetic consultation, useful records include previous operative notes, pathology where relevant, photographs or imaging, details of scars or injuries and a complete medication history.

Procedure selection depends on anatomy, tissue quality, previous surgery, functional goals and realistic aesthetic expectations. Microsurgical reconstruction, hand surgery and breast reconstruction often require more extensive planning than office-based aesthetic procedures. Patients considering elective cosmetic surgery should also discuss recovery time, scar placement, expected limitations and procedure-specific risks before deciding on treatment.

Reconstructive cases may additionally require wound-care planning, physiotherapy or staged procedures to restore function.
