Aesthetic
& Reconstructive Plastic Surgery
The immense benefits offered by the highly specialized and sophisticated field of plastic
surgery are now reaching people at large. Thanks to the mass media and increased public
awareness, plastic surgery is no longer considered taboo or the "fancy of a
few".
People with deformed or unsatisfactory body parts like heavy thighs, hanging tummies, huge
breasts or crooked noses do not have to suffer silently from the physical discomforts and
/or psychological trauma associated with these conditions. Aesthetic Surgery offers them a
way out to look and feel good. Reconstructive Plastic Surgery is
mainly concerned with reconstruction of missing or deformed body parts of the face, trunk
and limbs due to congenital defects, burns, trauma and cancer. |
