Cosmetic Surgery
Plastic surgery procedures fall into two major categories: reconstructive and cosmetic.
The goal of reconstructive plastic surgery is to restore form, and in many cases functions, that need to be corrected due to injury, disease or congenital defects. The repair of severe lacerations and fractures of facial bones are common reconstructive procedures. Reconstructive surgeries often involve the removal of skin cancers, the repair of tendons and nerves and breast reconstruction following cancer treatment.
Cosmetic procedures are operations performed to enhance the body’s appearance. Examples include facelifts, nose re-shaping, breast augmentation or reduction and liposuction.
