What Is
Vascular Malformation
Vascular malformations are abnormal clusters of blood vessels that are present at birth but may enlarge or become noticeable later in life. They can affect the skin, muscles, or deeper tissues and often cause swelling, discoloration, pain, or cosmetic concerns. At KosmoPlus, Dr. Ankit Shah provides specialized evaluation and advanced surgical treatment to safely remove or reduce these malformations while improving both function and appearance.
It includes venous malformations, arteriovenous malformations (AVM), lymphatic malformations, and capillary malformations (port-wine stains).
