Plastic Surgery
Introduction
Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or refinement of physical defects of form or function. Reconstructive surgery and Cosmetic/Aesthetic surgery are essential components of plastic surgery. Plastic surgeons utilise both reconstructive and aesthetic principles to optimise the appearance, functional outcome and the quality of life of their clients.
