Cosmetic Surgery

I introduced a little bit about plastic surgery several days early, actually, cosmetic surgery is a form of plastic surgery. The difference between plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery is that plastic surgery is more general, here is a brief definition to help you to distinguish both terms.

Plastic surgery is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties as the subspecialty dedicated to the surgical repair of defects of form or function — this includes cosmetic (or aesthetic) surgery, as well as reconstructive surgery. The term “cosmetic surgery” however, refers to surgery that is designed to improve cosmetics, or appearance. In several countries including Australia, many doctors who are not qualified as surgeons also perform cosmetic procedures.
