Clinical Professor of Plastic Surgery, Apollo Hospital.

Advancing Plastic Surgery with Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine.

Plastic surgery evolves when science evolves.

Prof. Srinjoy Saha’s research brings regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and minimally invasive reconstruction directly into patient care. His peer-reviewed studies shape newer, safer, more tissue-friendly techniques now used across India and internationally.

Core Focus Areas:

Tissue regeneration.

Biomaterial-assisted healing.

Soft-tissue salvage after trauma.

Minimally invasive reconstructive surgery.

Functional restoration after trauma.

Regenerative aesthetic therapy.

Why Advanced Research in Plastic Surgery Matters.

Many injuries once believed “not treatable” can now heal naturally through regenerative sciences.

Better Option. Prof. Saha’s work on tissue regeneration in plastic surgery provides alternatives to:
✔ large flap surgeries.
✔ amputation.
✔ prolonged immobilisation.
✔ high-risk reconstructive procedures.

Better Recovery. His innovations help patients recover:
• faster.
• with less pain.
• with fewer scars.
• with better long-term function.

PubMed: PMCID: PMC10088379. PMID: 37056593.

DOI: 10.13107/jocr.2022.v12.i12.3478

Key Findings:

• Treated Allen Type 3 injury (where the bone was injured and exposed at the tip) without terminalisation.

• Neither flap surgeries nor skin grafting were performed.
• Multi-layer regenerative matrix was applied to restore the contour of the lost finger.

• Platelet-derived growth factors stimulated regeneration.
• Achieved near-normal sensation & excellent tip contour.
• Full thumb function restored with 10/10 patient satisfaction.

Early Reconstruction of Grave Facial Dog Bite Injuries.

Journal: Wilderness & Environmental Medicine.
PubMed: PMID: 35059500. PMCID: PMC8763461.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wem.2021.07.001

Key Findings:

• Managed extensive facial injuries in an 18-month-old child after wild dog attack.
• Early primary reconstruction performed 64 hours after the dog bite, after stabilising shock and severe anaemia.
• Repaired full-thickness facial avulsions, nasal fractures, muscle disruptions, and near-amputated ear.
• Controlled secondary multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas infection with targeted antibiotics.
• Achieved near-symmetric facial appearance, coordinated expressions, well-settled scars, and stable ear contour.
