PLASTIC SURGERY

Plastic Surgery is a specialized medical field focused on the reconstruction, restoration, and enhancement of body structures to improve function and appearance. It includes reconstructive procedures for birth defects, trauma, burns, scars, and defects caused by injury, infection, or cancer, as well as cosmetic surgeries performed to enhance physical appearance.

Plastic surgeons treat conditions such as cleft lip and palate, burn injuries, hand injuries, facial trauma, skin loss, and post-surgical deformities.

Symptoms

Plastic surgery conditions include congenital deformities, burns, scars, trauma-related injuries, non-healing wounds, and cosmetic concerns affecting appearance or function.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, medical history, imaging studies, photographs, and sometimes biopsy to assess tissue damage and plan reconstructive or cosmetic procedures.
