Reconstructive vs cosmetic surgery
Many people use the term "reconstructive" and "cosmetic" surgery interchangeably. But they are actually very different.
Reconstructive surgery is performed to fix a body part of facial feature that is abnormal, to make it reappear normal. This procedure involves reconstruction, removing cancerous tissues or moving tissue around. Reconstructive surgery corrects malformations caused by trauma, disease, birth defects or other health complications.
Cosmetic surgery is performed to make enhancements to a normal body part to improve your self-esteem and confidence. Cosmetic surgery is not needed because of a deformity or health issue - you merely want to appear more attractive. Anti-aging procedures like tummy tucks, facelifts, and hair replacement treatments are common cosmetic procedures.
When choosing a plastic surgeon for either reconstructive or cosmetic surgery, make sure that person is a licensed, board-certified surgeon like Dr. Babak Azizzadeh.
If you are considering cosmetic facial surgery and you live in the Beverly Hills area of California, please contact Dr. Babak Azizzadeh today.
