Plastic surgery

Aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, differences and specificities

When we talk about plastic surgery we refer to a specific specialty of surgery. The main objective, beyond the specific branch, is to provide patients with corrections to defects of various kinds, whether they are congenital or acquired.

At the Quisisana accredited private hospital it is possible to undergo consultations and plastic surgery in Ferrara with dr. Piero Rosati. By plastic surgery we mean its two sub-categories: aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.

Cosmetic surgery

Cosmetic surgery is a branch of plastic surgery. The primary goal is to intervene on the patient's aesthetic appearance, modifying or improving specific areas of the body through targeted interventions.

The plastic surgeon therefore works to eliminate physical defects, whether they are congenital or the result of an accident.

Cosmetic surgery is increasingly popular, considering how it allows the patient to gain or regain self-confidence. This allows us to draw up a list of the most requested interventions:

Breast augmentation and reduction: surgery to increase or reduce the volume of the breasts
Blepharoplasty: surgery aimed at lifting the eyelids and eliminating bags under the eyes
Rhinoplasty: intervention aimed at correcting the aesthetic defects of the nose
Liposculpture and liposuction: surgery to remove fat deposits from specific areas
Abdominoplasty: surgery to remove excess fat in the abdomen
Forehead lift: surgery for the removal of wrinkles and possible correction of the eyebrows
Face lifting: intervention for the rejuvenation of the face
Dermabrasion: intervention for the removal of the superficial skin layer

Reconstructive plastic surgery

Reconstructive plastic surgery is a branch of plastic surgery. The primary goal is to be able to repair the patient's congenital or acquired defects from a functional point of view. Full functioning is the focus of the intervention. Any aesthetic improvements represent a purely secondary objective.

There are three main pathologies treated. Here's what they are:

Congenital anomalies
Severe burns
Trauma

Added to this are any damage caused by demolition surgery.
