 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Mustehsan Bashir. After 4 C-section, my tummy was sagging and hanging. For many years I had pain in my abdomen whenever I used to stand up or sit down. I went to many doctors to consult about what this pain is and what was it's cause? Most of them said it could be caused by fatty liver, but it never made sense as to how fatty liver causes pain in my abdominal area. Then I found Dr. Mustehsan's Clinic. Dr. Mustehsan guided us through the procedure every step of the way, making sure we were not uninformed of anything. After a thorough consultation, I found out my muscles had separated and the pain was being caused by my abdominal fat coming in and out of the muscles. If I had delayed this and kept ignoring, it could've caused hernia, I am very grateful I found Dr. Mustehsan Bashir' clinic in time! I underwent surgery for Rectus diastasis and Abdominoplasty and Dr Mustehsan was very attentive and careful throughout our stay at the hospital. Post surgery treatment was amazing, as all the followup appointments afterwards. All the hospital staff were very patient and very caring. Overall Dr.Mustehsan Bashir was very professional and his expertise throughout it all was well suited to my needs and was very reassuring to answer my doubts and worries. After surgery, looking into the mirror, I felt a huge confidence boost. I thank Dr. Mustehsan Bashir for lifting this burden off of my shoulder, which I carried for many years and for increasing myself love and confidence in myself too. Highly recommended Dr. Mustehsan to everyone who wants to visit him for any concerns about yourself. Thank you very much Dr. Mustehsan Bashir for all the care and support you give. Jazakallah Khair. 😊

Skin Grafting

We perform skin grafting to cover the burn area after cleaning the wound in order to prevent infections, scarring, stiffness and to promote fast rehabilitation. Most commonly, we use autografts to remove the skin from one area of the body and transplant it to the injured area to cover exposed tissues, tendons, and bones. Artificial grafts and allografts, i.e., taking healthy skin from another person, are also used.

We take two types of skin grafts depending upon the thickness;

Full-thickness skin graft (FTSGs)

Split thickness skin graft (STSGs)

Both of these grafts have different advantages, and we apply them according to the individual needs and circumstances and use the correct option for you depending upon the size and severity of your wound.

Skin Substitutes

We use skin substitutes in order to provide a covering for the wound by producing new skin using burn treatment. This skin engineering is very revolutionary as it can provide cover for large areas of tissue damage where more than 50% of the skin is damaged by the injury.

We use the following skin substitutes in which the material used for tissue engineering is made up of extracellular matrix, or their combination.

Epidermal substitutes

Dermal substitutes

Dermo-epidermal substitutes

We use skin substitutes for permanent use as well as temporary use prior to the application of skin grafts or flaps.

Microsurgery

We perform microsurgery to re-attach a lost finger, toe, ear, or lip. We use a microscope to sew
tiny blood vessels and nerves, allowing them to repair and heal.

Flap Surgery

We use flap reconstruction to repair deep defects were only replacing the skin cannot serve the purpose. We use flap covers when the bulk is needed; it can include skin, fat, fascia, and sometimes even muscle. We surgically remove tissue along with its blood supply from one part of the body and transfer it to another area to replace the lost tissue.

We use several methods for providing flap surgery, including

Free flaps

Local flaps

Regional flaps

Distant flaps

Z-plasty principle etc

Tissue Expansion

We use tissue expansion to gradually expand an area in order to grow extra skin through controlled mechanical tissue expansion to use in reconstructive procedures anywhere on the body. We accomplish this by inserting a silicone balloon expander under the skin near the damaged area. We add the saline solution to the balloon expander allowing it to increase in size slowly, causing the skin to stretch and grow. And when enough skin has been grown, we use it to correct or reconstruct the damaged area.

Our primary aim is to restore your function and aesthetics. According to your individual needs, we select the right procedure or sometimes a combination of procedures to serve your customized goal. At Cosmeticoplasty, we have the best burn surgeon in Lahore, Pakistan, to help you regain your lost self.
