After trauma or a wound
The damaged tissues, movement and possible stages of restoration need to be assessed.
Wounds · hand and foot · prostheticsLearn more
Discuss your case Complex reconstructive surgery of the face, body and limbs. We begin with your story, needs and expectations.
After trauma, a burn, cancer treatment or with a congenital anomaly, restoring appearance alone is not enough. We view form, function and quality of life as one task.
Explore the possibilitiesWe review your history, concerns, previous treatment and examination results.
We set priorities for function, form and possible stages.
We choose an appropriate approach after an individual assessment and agreement on the plan.
We discuss follow-up, care and next steps according to the course of treatment.
Doctors, the operating room and the Institute itself — without conceptual renders. This is what the team's daily work in Kyiv looks like.
