Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery
Is Cosmetic Surgery safe?
For the overwhelming majority of cases the answer is yes, however, all cosmetic surgery, regardless of procedure entails an element of risk. A full assessment of your current state of health, along with your medical history is made before surgery. All risks, no matter how remote are fully explained to you prior to surgery.
What is the difference between Cosmetic and reconstructive surgery?
Cosmetic surgery is performed to reshape normal structures of the body in order to improve the patient’s appearance and self-esteem. Cosmetic surgery is usually not covered by health insurance because it is elective. Reconstructive surgery is performed on abnormal structures of the body, caused by congential defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma, infection, tumors or disease. It is generally performed to improve function, but may also be done to approximate a normal appearance.
What is a face lift?
A face lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure that reduces the signs of aging by tightening the muscles beneath the skin of the neck, tightening the skin itself, and removing excess fat, all of which can provide an overall improvement to the appearance. You will end up looking younger.
Although a face lift cannot make someone in their 50s look like they were 20, it can make you look several years younger.
What is Plastic Surgery?

It is a surgical speciality that improves a person’s appearance and restores tissue defects on the body and the face caused by any disease, trauma, or birth disorder. Plastic surgery can restore, improve the function and appearance of the body. It can be performed on any part of the anatomy except the central nervous system, such as;
