Plastic Surgeon - Specialist in Breast, Skin and Body Contouring

About Me

Ms Shweta Aggarwal is a sought-after consultant plastic surgeon based in London, who specialises in breast and  skin disease , reconstruction and aesthetic surgery.

She is a substantive consultant in the NHS at Barts Health and privately practises at Nuffied at St. Barts, The Holly Private, Skin Care Network and Spires East London.

Ms Aggarwal obtained her primary medical degree from the University of Delhi, where she was ranked 1st in the highly competitive Indian National Postgraduate Entrance Exam. She completed her plastic training in London, as part of the Pan Thames training programme, gaining a wide range of experience in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery.

Her skills were enhanced by two prestigious fellowships, the Microsurgery Fellowship at the Royal Marsden Hospital and the National TIG (training interface group) fellowship.

Ms. Aggarwal has introduced new and innovative techniques at Barts Health like perforator flaps (LICAP, MICAP) and fat grafting. These procedures can allow some women to avoid mastectomy or to prevent deformity following cancer excision. These can also be used to restore breast shape and volume following breast implant removal.

Over her surgical career she has performed over 1,000 breast surgeries and 2,000 skin surgeries including complex post Mohs (cancer excision) reconstructions.

Further to her clinical practice and educational achievements, Ms Aggarwal has an impressive research background and is actively involved in professional development. Her work has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals and she is the audit, quality improvement and research lead for the Breast Unit at Whipps Cross. She is a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, England (FRCSEng (Plast)), and a member of the Association of Breast Surgery (ABS). She is an associate member of British Association of Dermatology Surgeons (BSDS).
