Everything You Ever Questioned About the World of Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery is something we hear about and see ads and commercials of “before and after” constantly. But do we truly know what it is all about? In this post, we are going to reveal some interesting facts and details about this big world called plastic surgery.

 The word plastic is originally derived from the Greek word “Plastikos” which means mold and reshape.  The first historical documentation of plastic body corrections dates already more than 4 thousand years ago. There were records of skin grafts for the health purposes practiced by ancient doctors for the sake of saving injured warriors and other patients. Nowadays it is possible to operate a surgery on almost every part of the body except the central nervous system. 

Types of Plastic Surgery

  • Cosmetic Surgery

Cosmetic surgery is initiated by an individual who is willing to change the physical appearance of a specific feature. In many cases, the shape of the physical feature appears to be normal, but people can wish to change the size of their breasts or shape of their lips or nose. Cosmetic surgery can also be helpful in changing the disfigured body parts into smooth ones.
