Dr. Sanjiv Vasa is the founder of Vasa Hair Academy. He is an eminent plastic surgeon with over 35 years of surgical experience.
After getting his basic graduation in medicine in India, he has undergone all post surgical training in UK for more than nine years and obtained fellowships of royal colleges of surgeons (FRCS).
Then he came back to India and opened his own clinic. His advanced training in plastic surgery brought about radical changes in India in the various fields of burns, congenital anomalies, accidental injuries, cosmetic surgeries etc. His hard work and innovative methods have made him one of the renowned and best known plastic surgeons in India.
He always traveled and attended various conferences across the globe. In 1994 during a conference in Malaysia he met Dr. Inaba from Japan which triggered his interest in HAIR. He later visited his clinic in Japan and saw his work on hair. This visit excited him to learn more about hair and hair restoration surgery. His craving for learning took him to visit various Hair Restoration Clinics and meetings with great names like Dr Rassman, Dr. Limmer who are the pioneers in Hair restoration technique.
Fast learner as he was he returned home and opened his own Hair restoration clinic. And within a year he had achieved a breakthrough in being able to grow hair in patients suffering from BURNS ALOPECIA. In 1997 he was invited to read a paper on it in a conference in Spain. There was never looking back from then on. He became the first Indian to be the member of the renowned international hair restoration society ISHRS (International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery).
As Hair Restoration technique was laborious, time-consuming and tedious, he felt the need to simplify the procedure while making sure that there is zero percent tissue damage while transplanting hair roots. He carried out vigorous research over 15 years on the hair structure, the instruments used during the technique as well as instruments for training the technicians and also devices to keep the clients journey as comfortable as possible during the surgery.
