What is cosmetic surgery?
Cosmetic surgery, a branch of surgery, aims to change the appearance of various parts of the body. From face to chest to stomach, this discipline can target a variety of areas.
The most common procedures include liposuction, which removes excess fat, and breast augmentation, which increases breast volume.
Why have cosmetic surgery?
Cosmetic surgery is first and foremost a way to feel better about yourself and your body. It can be used to correct complexes such as breast asymmetries or umbilicated nipples.
It’s also often a way of harmonizing the body and face, reducing the signs of aging for example.
Lastly, cosmetic surgery can help improve comfort for some patients who may be bothered by a physical feature. For example, rhinoplasty, nose surgery, can make breathing easier.
