Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Procedures & Diagnostics

Overview of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery

Plastic surgery encompasses both reconstructive procedures that restore form and function after injury, illness, or congenital conditions, and cosmetic procedures aimed at enhancing appearance . Techniques often overlap, with many reconstructive skills directly informing cosmetic outcomes and vice versa.

Rhinoplasty

One of the most commonly requested cosmetic procedures, involving reshaping of the nose to alter its size, shape, or proportions, and sometimes also to correct breathing difficulties[cite: 2].

Liposuction

A widely performed body-contouring procedure that removes localised fat deposits using a thin suction tool, often used to refine areas resistant to diet and exercise.

Breast Augmentation and Reduction

Common procedures that alter breast size using implants or fat transfer (augmentation) or by removing excess tissue (reduction), performed for cosmetic reasons or to relieve physical discomfort.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

A frequently performed procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids, addressing both cosmetic concerns and, in some cases, vision obstruction caused by drooping eyelids.

Burn Reconstruction

A specialised reconstructive procedure used to restore function and appearance to areas damaged by significant burns, often involving skin grafts or tissue expansion over multiple stages.

Microsurgical Free Flap Reconstruction

A rare, highly specialised technique in which tissue - along with its blood vessels - is transferred from one part of the body to another and reconnected under a microscope, commonly used in complex reconstruction after cancer surgery or severe trauma.

Gender-Affirming Surgery

A specialised set of procedures that help align a person's physical characteristics with their gender identity, encompassing a range of surgical options tailored to individual goals.
