Plastic surgery not only is nowadays the most popular surgical specialty, but also the most misunderstood.<\/p>\n
It consists of Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery. People often perceive Plastic as a synonym for Aesthetic Surgery. Although Cosmetic Surgery is an important component of Plastic Surgery, the roots of the specialty are found in Reconstructive Surgery.<\/p>\n
There are quite a few cases, however, where the boundaries between Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery merge together. Rhinoplasty, for instance, often treats both functionality and the looks of a nose. Breast reduction restores not only the aesthetics but also the functionality (back pain, dermatitis under the breast) and the psychological balance of the patient in many cases.

Breast augmentation, a theoretically predominantly cosmetic procedure, stimulates femininity and thus enhances both the confidence and the self- esteem of a woman.<\/p>\n
