The Difference Between a Cosmetic Surgeon and a Plastic Surgeon

 


It can be hard to find the right doctor if you don't know what to look for.

In recent years, treatments that focus on beauty have changed dramatically, ranging from a conventional facelift to Botox injections or laser resurfacing.

So people who are looking for the right physician may have trouble deciding what kind of doctor they are looking for.

When a client starts a quest for a plastic surgeon, one of the most common things he or she is unaware of is that a plastic surgeon and a cosmetic surgeon differ. Most doctors perform cosmetic surgery and, sadly, some are not under a properly accredited board's guidelines.

Did you feel confused? You aren't alone.

Let's focus on Cosmetic Surgery

  • The Cosmetic Surgeon's aim is to improve the appearance of a patient esthetically and thus the treatments, theories and strategies used to focus entirely on this result. The goal is to enhance the proportion, esthetic appeal and symmetry of the part of the body on which a procedure is performed.
  • It is the patient's voluntary choice to undergo cosmetic surgery.
  • On all areas of the body, including the head and neck, cosmetic surgery can be done.
  • Plastic surgeons, as well as doctors from various medical fields, may perform cosmetic surgery.
  • Breast Augmentation. A breast implant is a surgical prosthesis that is inserted within the breast to enhance, restore, or establish the breast's physical shape.
  • Body contouring. Typically, body contouring procedures involve altering body shape using liposuction methods and removing tissue. We perform regular procedures for tumescent liposuction and abdominoplasty as well as breast lifts and reductions to elevate and reduce breast size and contour. Only board-certified plastic surgeons will carry out procedures for body sculpting and contouring.
  • Facial contouring. also known as facial sculpture, is an optional cosmetic surgical procedure that improves the face's general appearance.
  • Facial rejuvenation is a cosmetic procedure (or a series of cosmetic treatments) that aims to return the human face to a youthful appearance.

Now focus on Plastic Surgery

  • Plastic surgery's main focus is to repair correct defects in order to reconstruct to provide a natural appearance and restore normal functions of the part of the body that is being operated on.
  • It is defined as a speciality in surgery involving the reconstruction of facial and body defects due to birth, burns, diseases and trauma.
  • The goal of plastic surgery is to rebuild and facilitate the functioning of damaged body parts in their normal and natural state.

The procedure of the Plastic Surgery

  • Hand Surgery
  • Scar Revision Surgery
  • Reconstruction of Breasts
  • Burn Repair Surgery

While both plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery procedures are conducted to change the body of a person, there are different overall ideologies that influence their aims, preparation, and end-results analysis for patients. Each has specific goals that are structured to cover a set of different procedures.

Laser liposuction technique melts and tightens the skin

Image
Liposuction is a procedure that uses a method to remove fat from the body area, such as the belly, hips, thighs, buttocks, back, or neck. Those areas too are formed by liposuction. Certain liposuction names include lipoplasty and body contouring. Generally, liposuction is not considered an overall weight-loss process or an alternative to weight-loss. If you're overweight, you're likely to lose more weight than  you would with liposuction through diet and exercise, or through bariatric procedures such as gastric bypass operations. Laser lipolysis provides a fat-busting boost over conventional liposuction. Liposuction is one of the most common fast-fixes for those trying to trimmer bodies with minimal effort. But like anything that seems too good to be true, the process of fat-reduction comes with a few drawbacks, especially if your skin is unable to take up the slack. The aim of using cosmetic surgery to break hard-to-reach fat may be undermined by the pockets of sagging
