Professional statement
Mr Siva Kumar is a leading consultant, plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgeon based across clinics in South London, Sussex and Kent. Mr Kumar has a wide practice covering cosmetic breast surgery, facial rejuvenation and body contouring, as well as non-surgical procedures such as anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers and lasers.
In 2016 he was appointed as a consultant plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgeon at Queen Victoria Hospital. He is the lead clinician for melanoma and skin cancer and established the Sentinel Node Service for early detection of melanoma in the South East of England. He is the current Chairman of the Sussex Skin Cancer Network. He is an opinion leader in his field and has appeared on the BBC News, ITN, radio and newspapers.
Mr Kumar is one of a select few surgeons who uses Crisalix 4D software to show you spectacular images of potential end results of breast surgery that is projected onto your own body. Not only can you see the new you, but you can customise the shape and size of the breast implant. The software can also be used to simulate end results for rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty and abdominoplasty. This makes the consultation interactive and ensures you can make a confident choice about your treatment.
