    surgical procedure to restore form and function to damaged body parts

    Reconstructive surgery is a type of surgical procedure aimed at restoring the form and function of body parts that have been damaged by trauma, disease, congenital defects, or medical treatments like cancer surgery. Unlike cosmetic surgery, which is primarily focused on enhancing appearance, reconstructive surgery often addresses medical needs and can significantly improve a patient's quality of life by repairing physical abnormalities and restoring normal function.
