Healthy is how I see myself
Self-confidence starts on the inside. But if what we see in the mirror doesn’t match our ideal, it may hide itself away.
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Plastic Surgery deals with the repair, reconstruction, or replacement of
physical defects of form or function involving the skin,
musculoskeletal system, cranio-maxillofacial structures, hand,
extremities, breast and trunk, and external genitalia. It uses aesthetic
surgical principles not only to improve undesirable qualities of normal
structures but in all reconstructive procedures as well.
Special knowledge and skill in the design and surgery of grafts, flaps, free tissue transfer and replantation is necessary. Competence in the management of complex wounds, the use of implantable materials, and in tumor surgery is required. Plastic Surgery has been prominent in the development of innovative techniques such as microvascular and cranio-maxillofacial surgery, liposuction, and tissue transfer. The foundation of surgical anatomy, physiology, pathology, and other basic sciences is fundamental to this specialty.
Competency in plastic surgery implies a special combination of basic knowledge, surgical judgment, technical expertise, ethics, and interpersonal skills in order to achieve satisfactory patient relationships and problem resolution.
