Transforming Confidence Through Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery a.k.a Aesthetic surgery is the branch of plastic surgery that deals with enhancing the appearance of the face and body. The conditions that are addressed here primarily affect appearance, though some cases have functional problems as well.
Is cosmetic surgery the same as plastic surgery?
While cosmetic surgery focuses on enhancing appearance, plastic surgery encompasses both reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. Reconstructive surgery addresses functional impairments caused by injuries, congenital defects, or medical conditions. On the other hand, cosmetic surgery is elective and designed to improve aesthetic appeal.
Contrary to popular perception, cosmetic surgery is not necessarily for the rich and famous. Most of the clients are just normal people. There are many reasons why people seek aesthetic surgery; mostly it is personal reasons. A person may be unhappy about some aspect of their face or body, such as a large nose, double chin, small chin, small or mis-shapen breasts or unwanted fat accumulations.
The distress from these features may range from a mild desire to seek improvement to extreme shyness which may affect normal life or ability to socialize. Some may seek to restore the features that have been distorted by age, environment, pregnancy or life situations. Patients range from teenagers to the elderly and all ages in between; both men and women.

Cosmetic Surgeries are usually performed by plastic surgeons with special experience/interest in the aesthetic surgical field. Such doctors should be board certified in plastic surgery from their respective countries (not necessarily only American Board certified as you may read in some internet sites). This means that the doctor has undergone the required duration of residency training and has passed examinations leading to certification. This ensures for the patients that the doctor is first of all a fully trained surgeon and then has further been trained in the nuances of plastic surgery, tissue healing and related areas.
- Admittedly several surgeons from other fields such as otolaryngology and ophthalmology have also contributed to aesthetic surgery and are capable of doing aesthetic surgery in their respective areas (only); and there have been some very gifted surgeons from these specialties as well.
- A worrying trend today is that cosmetic surgery is now being offered by a variety of doctors in some countries from non-core specialties; where any doctor, even a non-surgeon is allowed to practice this type of surgery in some states. This is generally fraught with danger. It is important therefore that the patients check that the doctor is first of all a surgeon, is certified and accredited in the respective area of surgery and has hospital affiliations / privileges that ensure that proper background checks have been performed.
- Broadly speaking, aesthetic procedures can be classified into Face, Breasts and the rest of the Body. Please seek information under the relevant section.
