Reconstructive surgery aims to restore integrity to the body and face, so that the person is able to rebuild, physically and morally, after a trauma – burns, bites, accidents. It is also needed to correct a deformity, like a cleft lip in a child. Reconstructive surgery is also committed to rebuilding the body that is damaged by a surgical procedure, such as the placement of a breast implant following breast removal (mastectomy) due to cancer. We are thriving in a society where our appearance is of prime importance, hence cosmetic surgery helps to restore the self-esteem.

Some common plastic and reconstructive surgeries include breast augmentation, breast reduction, facelift, tummy tuck, liposuction, rhinoplasty (nose job), blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and reconstructive surgery after trauma or cancer treatment.

According to Dr. Amiti Shah, Plastic Surgeon in Mumbai, preparing for plastic and reconstructive surgery involves a number of steps, including quitting smoking, avoiding certain medications, and following pre-operative instructions provided by your surgeon. It is important to discuss any concerns or questions with your surgeon prior to surgery.
