Plastic Surgery Types

Plastic surgery focuses on the reconstruction of facial and body defects that occur as a result of trauma, birth disorders, burns, and disease. Its intent is correct areas of the body that are dysfunctional and, by nature, is reconstructive.

Aesthetics Plastic Surgery Clinic In Dubai came into prominence during World War I when it was used for the reconstructive repair of soldiers in the French Army. In 1924 a formalized training program was established at Johns Hopkins by Dr. John Davis, the first professor of plastic surgery in the United States. With the efforts of plastic surgeons and emergency medicine physicians, shatterproof windshields were developed.

Cosmetic Surgery

Plastic surgery is sometimes confused with cosmetic surgery. While they are closely related, the specialties are not the same. Cosmetic surgery is an essential component of plastic surgery. The plastic surgeon will use the principles learned from cosmetic surgery to improve the appearance and the outcome of reconstructive procedures.

Cosmetic surgery’s focus is on enhancing the patient’s appearance. This includes improving the aesthetic appeal, symmetry, and proportion. Cosmetic surgery is performed on the head, neck, and body. Cosmetic surgery is an elective procedure because the areas of the body function properly. Cosmetic surgery is practiced by doctors from a variety of medical specialties, including plastic surgeons.

Plastic surgery is defined as a surgical specialty dedicated to reconstruction of facial and body defects due to birth disorders, trauma, burns, and disease. Plastic surgery is intended to correct dysfunctional areas of the body and is reconstructive in nature. While many plastic surgeons choose to complete additional training and perform cosmetic surgery as well, the basis of their surgical training remains reconstructive plastic surgery. In fact, in 1999, the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons changed its name to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons to more strongly communicate the message that "plastic and reconstructive surgeons are one in the same."

Training for plastic surgery is completed after a general surgery residency and an additional two years of training in plastic surgery. The residency training may include a rotation in cosmetic surgery as part of the training but depending on the program, does not necessarily include training on every cosmetic procedure.

The training, experience, and knowledge required to become board certified cosmetic surgeon reflect specialization above and beyond what it takes to become board certified in a related discipline, such as plastic surgery. To find the most qualified doctor for a specific cosmetic procedure, you must compare doctors’ overall (residency and post-residency) training, experience, and proven competence with respect to that specific cosmetic procedure.
