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.

It can refer to the highest score, the fastest time, or the longest duration in a sport or other field. Records are often set during competitions and can be broken when someone exceeds the previous achievement. A record is considered a notable accomplishment and is typically celebrated as a milestone in that field, serving as a benchmark for future competitors.
