WHAT IS PLASTIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY?
We perform plastic and reconstructive surgery (contrary to aesthetic surgery) for the purpose of improving abnormal structures of the face and body. Various factors are important, specifically consequences of trauma, tumors, infection, developmental anomalies or hereditary defects. Generally, we do it to improve function, but we also aim to achieve a more normal appearance.
