plastic surgery

Plastic surgery is a specialized field dedicated to reconstructing or enhancing body parts through surgical techniques. It includes both reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. Reconstructive surgery aims to restore function and appearance to areas affected by trauma, congenital anomalies, or disease, such as breast reconstruction after mastectomy, cleft lip and palate repair, hand surgery, and skin grafting for burns. Cosmetic surgery focuses on improving aesthetic appearance, with procedures like rhinoplasty to reshape the nose, liposuction to remove excess fat, facelifts to reduce signs of aging, and abdominoplasty to address excess skin and fat in the abdomen. Plastic surgeons use advanced techniques to achieve natural-looking results, prioritizing both cosmetic and functional outcomes to meet each patient’s individual needs and goals.
