Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty that involves repairing, reconstructing, or modifying the human body. It can be divided into two main categories: reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. Reconstructive surgery includes skull, face, hand surgery, microscope surgery and burn treatment. While reconstructive surgery aims to regenerate a part of the body or improve its function, cosmetic surgery aims to improve its appearance.
