Dr Parviz Sadigh
Consultant Plastic Reconstructive Surgeon
MB ChB FRCS (Plast)
I am a Consultant Plastic Reconstructive Surgeon with a passion for microsurgery and aesthetics. I graduated from Bristol Medical School in 2004 and completed my general surgical training and Plastic Surgical specialist training in London, UK.
I have been working as a Consultant since 2014. My NHS base is The Royal London Hospital, Bart’s Health NHS Trust, which is the UK’s busiest trauma centre. Here, I held the position of Clinical Director for Plastic Surgery from August 2017 through to January 2021, and am proud of having overseen a huge expansion in our services over this period.
I made the move out to Dubai in January 2021 to take up a position as Consultant Plastic Reconstructive Surgeon at Kings College Hospital.
Throughout my surgical training I always sought to to seek out the best training opportunities. Once I had developed an interest in microsurgery I therefore decided to embark upon a number of international microsurgical fellowships in the far east.
Microsurgery is the sub-specialty within plastic reconstructive surgery whereby the surgeon joins together blood vessels or nerves the size of a hair breadth or smaller using a powerful operating microscope.
This allows the surgeon the transplant soft tissue from one part of the body to another, thereby reconstructing wounds that would otherwise be un-reconstructable. It also allows us to reattach severed digits and repair tiny nerves.
It is a very powerful, versatile surgical technique, and one that I am proud to have in my armamentarium.
My Fellowship experience began in Khaosiung, Taiwan, where I completed a one year advanced microsurgical fellowship under the tutelage of Professor Seng-Feng Jeng.
I then spent one month with Professor Isao Koshima at Tokyo University Hospital, Japan, to observe the super-microsurgical techniques being developed in this centre of excellence.
I also spent six weeks under the guidance of Professor Yixin Zhang at The People’s Ninth Hospital, Shanghai, China and a period of study at The Asan Medical Centre in Seoul, South Korea, under the supervision of Professor JP Hong.
With regards to aesthetics I specialise in all aspects of surgery to the breast and trunk, as well as facial aesthetics such as rhinoplasty, peri-ocular rejuvenation. face lift, neck lift and of course Botox and fillers for anti-wrinkle and facial contouring.
Fat transfer to the mid-face and upper lid blepharoplasty is of particular interest to me, as I feel that this is hugely beneficial in achieving facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Bart’s and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry and teach advanced microsurgical techniques on their microsurgical masters programme.
I have published over twenty-five papers in peer review journals and in 2014 was awarded the prestigious PRS ‘Best Reconstructive Paper Award’ for my work on free flap reconstruction in the head and neck.
Outside of my clinical practice I enjoy skiing at a high level and keep fit by way of high intensity interval training.
I created this site as a way of communicating what it is I do as a surgeon, and as a portal of information for my patients. I would be grateful to receive any feed-back or suggestions for improvement that you may have.
