Know About - The Very First Nose Lift Surgeon

India is known for a lot more than chicken tikka and untouchability.

This exotic country produced the oldest plastic surgeon and rhinoplasty specialist- Sushruta. Times were tough in 6^th century (B.C.) India and criminals were being executed and debilitated in numbers. Recurring wars had left many able men invalid.

In such a setting Sushruta, a renowned physician, worked out a method to fix broken and amputated noses. The first reconstructive rhinoplasty was performed successfully using skin from the forehead.

Sushruta took his skill further and devised more than 15 methods to repair a damaged nose. That’s ancient advanced nose surgery for you!

In keeping with the period when anesthetic precautions and certifications didn’t exist, Sushruta made use of wine as an anesthetic for most of his nose enhancement procedures and other cosmetic surgeries. Instruments crafted of pure iron were used for his operations.

Sushruta formulated the basic principles of cosmetic surgery which are still referred to till this date. Plastic surgeons have reworked and developed different rotation types and pedicle flaps that he laid down in his book Sushruta Samhita (Sushruta’s Compendium).
