    TLDR Vitamin B complex improves plastic and cosmetic surgery outcomes by enhancing tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
    The document highlights the advanced applications of the vitamin B complex in plastic and cosmetic surgery, emphasizing its roles in wound healing, scar modulation, nerve protection, and skin rejuvenation. Niacinamide (B3) is noted for enhancing skin barrier function and reducing pigmentation, while pantothenic acid (B5) accelerates wound healing. Biotin (B7) is recognized for its potential in improving hair density and regrowth, particularly in deficiency cases. Methylcobalamin (B12) and pyridoxine (B6) support nerve repair and reduce neuropathic pain. The review underscores the importance of B vitamins in mitochondrial function, oxidative stress protection, and improving surgical outcomes. It calls for further research into precision supplementation and innovative delivery systems to enhance recovery and maximize therapeutic benefits.
