Introduction to
Aesthetic Surgery:

Aesthetic surgery, also known as cosmetic surgery, is a specialized branch of plastic surgery aimed at enhancing or improving the appearance of various parts of the body. This type of surgery is elective and focuses on aesthetic enhancements rather than medical necessity. Aesthetic surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures that can reshape, resize, and rejuvenate the face and body. These procedures are designed to improve self-esteem and confidence by addressing concerns related to aging, weight, genetics, or other aesthetic issues.

I am thrilled with the results of my recent procedures with Dr. Ashok BC sir. From the initial consultation to the post-op follow-ups, Dr. Ashok sir and the entire staff were absolutely fantastic. Their expertise, professionalism, and kindness put me at ease throughout the entire process. I had microtia and Dr. Ashok sir carried out several stages of the procedure with great finesse to correct it and meticulously structured my ear which now closely resembles my other ear. The procedures itself were flawless, and the recovery process was surprisingly smooth. Doctor also helped me with every suggestion whenever I had any minute problem regarding the procedures. I've received countless compliments from friends, family, and colleagues, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would highly recommend Dr. Ashok sir to anyone if they want to consult a plastic surgeon.

The best experience I had for the entire period of treatment, everything, starting from the reception till the post surgery counselling, is so streamlined and smooth you don't need to second guess anything, special thanks to Dr Ashwin KR (HOD oncology), Dr Ashok, Dr Meera from plastic surgery. Again lots of thanks to the staff Lata, Maria, Maggie, Roy.. thanks a bunch, please keep up the good work.

Shrikant Sharma

My mother got tumour at her left jaw, after consulting some renowned doctors we decided to do the surgery under Dr. Ashok BC. She was a school teacher so aesthetically post operation look was important to continue her job. The operation was critical, which ran for over 9 hours where her jaw had to be removed and replaced with bone and tissue grafted from leg. My entire family witnessed that day how the doctors have empathetically attended the surgery and kept clarifying our doubts with smiling face. After two days she developed other complication and it was Sunday but the doctor rushed in the evening and attended again surgery till 3AM in the morning. We felt again God is just infront of us and not only omnipresent. It is now three years since then and everything is going fine, the doctor keep asking us about her good health and she is happily in between students inspiring them to become Dr. Ashok BC to serve the mankind.

Dasgupta

Dr Ashok was already recommended to me as the best plastic surgeon for breast reconstruction in Bangalore and rightly so. Not only is his work thorough and meticulous, but he also gave me the best advice regarding the kind of tests and procedure based on certain life events. He is sensitive to what a patient is going through and listens. It was also fun to see how he uses the body to create his artwork - a true artist. Background: From just a casual conversation that my mother was diagnosed, you suggested that I do BRCA tests that changed our plan from single breast reconstruction to a bilateral. One of the best decisions of my life.

Roopa

I am deeply grateful to Dr. Ashok BC for his exceptional skill and dedication in performing my salivary gland tumor surgery. The procedure was highly critical, and thanks to Dr. Ashok's expertise, the surgery was a resounding success. I have completely recovered with minimal post-surgery effects, which is a testament to his meticulous care and commitment. Dr. Ashok's calm demeanor and clear communication made me feel confident and reassured throughout the entire process. His thorough approach and attention to detail were evident at every step, from diagnosis to post-operative care. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ashok BC to anyone in need of surgical care. His exceptional abilities and genuine compassion make him an outstanding surgeon. Thank you, Dr. Ashok. Your remarkable skill and unwavering dedication have made all the difference in my recovery.
