Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery

Both cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery deal with improving a patient’s body and they are closely related specialties but they are not the same.

Cosmetic Surgery is a discipline of medicine focused on enhancing and improving appearances through surgical and medical techniques, such as:

  • Breast Enhancement: Augmentation, Lift, Reduction

  • Facial Contouring: Rhinoplasty, Chin, or Cheek Enhancement

  • Facial Rejuvenation: Facelift, Eyelid Lift, Neck Lift, Brow Lift

  • Body Contouring: Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, Gynecomastia Treatment

  • Skin Rejuvenation: Laser Resurfacing, Botox, Filler Treatments

While Plastic Surgery is the surgical specialty dedicated to reconstruction of the facial and body defects caused by birth disorders, trauma, burns and diseases. It is intended to correct dysfunctional areas of the body, and is reconstructive in nature. For example:

  • Breast Reconstruction

  • Burn Repair Surgery

  • Congenital Defect Repair: Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate

  • Extremity Defect Reconstruction

  • Hand Surgery

  • Scar Revision Surgery

Plastic surgery is growing in popularity each year. Women are no longer the only ones having cosmetic surgery; men are also contributing to the boom. It is important to mention that ethical principles guide our plastic/cosmetic surgeons at Najjar Hospital.
