FAQ's Related to Cosmetic Surgeon

Plastic surgery is a medical speciality that focuses on reconstructing, restoring, or enhancing parts of the body. It encompasses both reconstructive procedures (used to correct defects or injuries) and cosmetic procedures.

Cosmetic surgery is performed to enhance appearance, such as rhinoplasty or a facelift. Reconstructive surgery is done to restore function and appearance after trauma, congenital defects, or medical conditions, such as burn reconstruction or scar revision.

You may be a good candidate if you are in good general health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking improvement rather than perfection. A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is essential to determine suitability.

When performed by a qualified, board-certified plastic surgeon in an accredited facility, plastic surgery is generally safe. Following pre- and post-operative instructions helps reduce risks.

Recovery time depends on the type of procedure. Minor procedures may require a few days, while major surgeries can take several weeks. Your surgeon will provide a personalised recovery plan.

Most surgical procedures leave some scarring. However, plastic surgeons use advanced techniques to minimise and place scars in less noticeable areas. Scars usually fade over time.
