Introduction

The word "plastic" comes from the ancient Greek term 'plastikos', which refers to shaping or molding.
Plastic surgery can be divided into two main categories: cosmetic surgery and reconstructive surgery. Cosmetic surgery aims to improve one's appearance by enhancing the natural features of the body, boosting self-confidence in the process. On the other hand, reconstructive surgery focuses on repairing congenital defects or restoring body structures that have been damaged due to injury or illness back to their normal state.
