cirugía plástica

a medical operation performed on a part of the body in order to improve its appearance or repair skin injury

What is "plastic surgery"?

Plastic surgery is a type of surgical procedure that involves reshaping, changing, or repairing the human body. It can be broadly categorized into two types: repairing surgery and cosmetic surgery. Repairing surgery is performed to correct problems or injuries, such as issues present at birth, injuries, or medical conditions like breast repair after mastectomy, which is a surgery to remove the entire breast tissue. Cosmetic surgery, on the other hand, is chosen by the patient and focuses on improving appearance, such as facial implants or breast enhancement. Both types of plastic surgery aim to improve the patient's physical appearance, function, or quality of life, depending on the individual's needs and goals. Recovery from plastic surgery varies depending on the procedure performed, ranging from days to weeks, with careful care after surgery being essential for the best possible results and healing.
