Mr Kshem Yapa Beyond Cadogan Clinic

For the NHS, Mr Yapa works at St Mary’s Hospital London, a renowned major trauma centre. There, he treats people with soft tissue injuries and performs microsurgery and free tissue transfer for the most severe and complex injuries. This led him to working in Manchester as a Plastic Surgeon during the 2017 Manchester Arena bombings, an experience he feels was an honour and humbling.

He has published over 30 peer-reviewed articles and made several international presentations, for which he was awarded the Best Investigator Award at the American Society of Plastic Surgeons meeting in San Diego. His research focuses on the regenerative properties of fat transfer, scarless healing and facial development. He regularly applies this knowledge when treating patients, enriching his knowledge and practice in fat grafting procedures.
