Specialty

Plastic surgery encompasses both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.
Cosmetic surgery is the area of plastic surgery which seeks to improve facial and body features. Cosmetic surgery can make a significant contribution by improving your appearance and enhancing your self-image.
Reconstructive surgery is a surgical specialty concerned with restoring form, function, and health to your body.
In selecting a plastic surgeon, it is important that you develop a good rapport with that physician. It is also important that you understand the training which plastic and reconstructive surgeons receive:
To become a board-certified plastic surgeon, a physician must pursue a course of post graduate training after medical school, lasting five or more years. This includes a background in general surgery or other surgical field followed by a minimum of two to three years at an approved plastic surgical training center. In addition, a physician must pass comprehensive written and oral examination before being officially certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
