A small history page about Plastic Surgery
Plastic surgery is a branch of surgery that involves the repair or replacement of malformed, injured or lost members or tissues of the body. The plastic surgery has two more major branches: the reconstructive and the cosmetic surgery. These types of plastic surgery differ from one to another in one main way: the reconstructive surgery is made to help reconstruct an injured tissue or a birth defect while the cosmetic plastic surgery deals only with form or appearance.
I will now present a short history lesson about plastic surgery. Although plastic surgery goes far as Ancient Egypt, the first real plastic surgery doctors were two Sicilians: Gustav and Antonio Branka.
They were father and son and they have managed to put the first brick on the plastic surgery wall by making basic guidelines which plastic surgeons should follow when doing a reconstructive nose surgery. The first man to actually create a center for Plastic surgery was another Italian: Taliakosi. But the main develop in plastic surgery was during the World War I and II because of the huge number of soldiers with body and facial disfigurations. Reconstructive plastic surgery has been in some cases able to correct these injuries and regain functional abilities of those parts of the body. From then to now it has been in a constant evolution catalyzed by scientific achievements.
It is important to know that in the 80' plastic surgery had for many people a single meaning: breast enhancements.
This is why more and more women were asking for that kind of plastic surgery procedure. But really, plastic surgery is much more than that.
Nowadays, the plastic surgery is one of the most profitable businesses out there. Cosmetic surgery has now become more fashionable and it plays a great role in the mainstream.
It is known that almost every Hollywood celebrity has used in some way plastic surgery.
In our modern society that puts a high price on an individual look, plastic surgery helps people getting a nice outward appearance along with self-confidence.

In the past there was no place for these patients to go to learn about the LAP-BAND? and gastric bypass methods of surgically induced weight loss or follow-up cosmetic surgery that, taken together, allow the patient to achieve their desired results.The LAP-BAND Adjustable Gastric Banding System is a minimally invasive surgical procedure involving the application of prosthesis (the LAP-BAND) around the stomach to create a small gastric pouch and an opening to the rest of the stomach.

Cynthia Rowland Leading The Crusade To Help Baby Boomers Look Younger Without Plastic Surgery
(ContentDesk) June 19, 2006 -- For some baby boomers denial and anxiety over aging permeates almost every aspect of their lives.
One example of this obsession with youth is the vast dependency on plastic surgery.
In two decades the number of cosmetic procedures rose from 60,000 to 2 million a year with an annual cost of $10 million dollars.
Reality and other television shows create unhealthy, unrealistic expectations of plastic surgery.
Its clear that the public has been lulled into a sense of false security because these shows do not offer the viewer the whole story of risks and complications associated with invasive procedures such as cosmetic surgery.
An interesting twist is that a recent Zogby poll stated there is a slow and steady redefinition of "what's sexy" to men.
Todays man is looking for a natural, wholesome woman.
The poll revealed that men don't like the "Barbie doll look" nor do they like women who wear a...

Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery is done by qualified surgeons to visually improve any part of the body. Usually, many people undergo cosmetic surgery to better their appearance. It is also referred to as elective surgery, since the patient chooses to undertake surgery although it is not mandatory.
Cosmetic surgery can be broadly classified into body contouring, facial cosmetic surgery, non-invasive treatments, and facial rejuvenation. According to recent figures published by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, women were not the only ones undergoing cosmetic surgery. Men accounted for 11 percent of the total cosmetic surgeries performed in 2005.
Whether a patient is considering a face-lift, liposuction or breast implants, cosmetic surgery should not be viewed frivolously.
Many surgeons are of the opinion that certain factors in the patient's life could be influencing their decision to undergo cosmetic surgery, and they may choose to delay the operation...
