PLASTIC SURGERY focuses on reconstruction of the defects to improve function and restore normal appearance . for example burn repair or breast reconstruction after a breast cancer surgery. COSMETIC SURGERY on the other hand is a procedure that is performed on normal parts of the body to enhance aesthetic appeal , symmetry and proportion , remove signs of ageing . in both the cases the procedures contribute not only to the patient’s physical appearance but also to mental health thereby enhancing his self esteem and confidence . An individual has a different body form so proper planning according to the individual patients is very important . A PLASTIC AND COSMETIC SURGEON is trained rigorously and extensively for both the areas
