Dr. Tibar Banerjee is a Consultant Plastic Surgeon at Fortis Hospital, Anandapur, Kolkata, specialising in plastic, reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. His official Fortis Healthcare profile lists 18 years of professional experience. His areas of expertise include reconstructive procedures, burns management, post-burn contracture release, hand surgery, microvascular surgery, breast reconstruction and cosmetic procedures. His work focuses on conditions requiring restoration of damaged tissues, correction of deformities and improvement of physical function or appearance.
Dr. Tibar Banerjee holds an MS in General Surgery and an MCh in Plastic Surgery. These postgraduate qualifications provide the foundation for his specialised surgical practice. Plastic and reconstructive surgery involves the management of injuries, congenital abnormalities, tissue defects, scars and other conditions affecting the body's form and function. Treatment may require careful surgical planning, tissue reconstruction and postoperative rehabilitation depending on the patient's individual needs.
His documented clinical interests include burns management and reconstructive surgery following burn injuries. Severe burns can damage the skin and deeper tissues, sometimes causing restricted movement, contractures and significant scarring. Reconstructive procedures may include scar revision, contracture release, skin grafting and tissue flap reconstruction when clinically indicated. Treatment planning considers the extent of tissue damage, wound healing, joint movement and long-term functional requirements.
Dr. Banerjee's supplementary professional profile also identifies hand surgery, microvascular surgery and wound reconstruction among his areas of expertise. Hand surgery addresses selected injuries and disorders affecting tendons, nerves, blood vessels and soft tissues. Microvascular techniques involve the repair or connection of very small blood vessels, which may be required during complex reconstructive procedures. Appropriate treatment depends on the injury, affected structures and surgical assessment.
His professional interests further include cleft lip and palate repair, breast reconstruction, rhinoplasty and liposuction. Cleft surgery aims to correct congenital abnormalities affecting the lip or palate, while breast reconstruction may restore breast shape following selected operations or injuries. Cosmetic procedures such as rhinoplasty and liposuction are considered according to anatomical findings, patient expectations, medical suitability and the potential benefits and risks of surgery.
Dr. Tibar Banerjee is associated with the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery department at Fortis Hospital, Anandapur, Kolkata. Patients seeking evaluation for scars, burn-related deformities, complex wounds, hand injuries, reconstructive procedures or selected cosmetic concerns may enquire about consultations at the hospital. The suitability of individual procedures depends on clinical examination, medical history, treatment goals and surgical risk assessment. Patients should confirm current consultation schedules, procedure availability and fees directly with the hospital.
Reconstructive surgery aims to restore the appearance and function of tissues affected by injuries, congenital abnormalities, burns, disease or previous operations. Treatment may involve skin grafts, tissue flaps or other surgical techniques. The surgical approach depends on the location and extent of tissue damage, the patient's health and functional needs.
Cosmetic surgery includes procedures intended to alter or improve the appearance of selected body structures. Treatment options depend on individual anatomy, personal goals and medical suitability. Before surgery, patients require an assessment of potential benefits, limitations, alternatives and complications to support realistic expectations and informed decision-making.
Burns management involves assessing the depth, extent and location of thermal, chemical or other burn injuries. Treatment may include wound care, infection prevention, pain management, skin grafting and rehabilitation. Severe burns require specialist hospital treatment, while long-term follow-up may address scarring, contractures and limitations in movement.
Post-burn contractures develop when scar tissue tightens and restricts normal movement, particularly around joints. Surgical release may be considered when contractures significantly affect function or cause deformity. Treatment can involve scar release, skin grafting or flap reconstruction, followed by physiotherapy and appropriate scar management to support recovery.
Cleft lip and palate are congenital conditions involving incomplete formation of the upper lip or roof of the mouth. Surgical repair aims to improve anatomical structure and support functions such as feeding, speech and facial development. Treatment commonly requires coordinated care involving plastic surgeons, paediatric specialists, speech therapists and other professionals.
Hand surgery addresses selected injuries and disorders involving the bones, tendons, nerves, blood vessels and soft tissues of the hand. Surgical treatment may be necessary after traumatic injuries, significant tissue damage or certain functional abnormalities. Rehabilitation and hand therapy are often important to support movement, strength and recovery.
Microvascular surgery involves operating on very small blood vessels using specialised magnification and instruments. It is used in selected complex reconstructive procedures, including the transfer of tissues that require restoration of blood circulation. These techniques may support reconstruction after trauma, tissue loss or major surgery when clinically appropriate.
Breast reconstruction aims to restore breast shape after procedures such as mastectomy or following selected injuries and deformities. Options may include implants or tissue-based reconstruction using the patient's own tissues. Treatment planning considers previous operations, overall health, available tissue, aesthetic goals and the potential need for additional procedures.
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure used to reshape the nose or address selected structural abnormalities. It may be performed for cosmetic reasons or as part of functional nasal reconstruction. Surgical planning involves assessing nasal anatomy, breathing function, facial proportions and patient expectations, along with discussing recovery and possible complications.
Liposuction is a cosmetic body-contouring procedure that removes selected deposits of subcutaneous fat through small surgical openings. It is not a treatment for obesity or a substitute for weight management. Suitability depends on overall health, skin elasticity and treatment goals, with careful consideration of anaesthetic and surgical risks.
Scar revision aims to improve the appearance, flexibility or function of selected scars resulting from surgery, burns or injuries. Treatment may involve surgical revision, silicone-based scar care, injections or other appropriate methods. Complete scar removal is generally not possible, and the treatment approach depends on scar characteristics.
Wound and flap reconstruction is used to repair selected complex tissue defects when simple wound closure is insufficient. A tissue flap transfers skin and sometimes deeper tissues while maintaining or restoring a blood supply. This approach may be considered after traumatic injuries, burns, tumour removal or other causes of tissue loss.
