    Glossary Cosmetic Surgery

    involves elective procedures to enhance or alter physical appearance

    Cosmetic surgery, also known as aesthetic surgery, involves procedures that enhance or improve the appearance of a person's body or face. Unlike reconstructive surgery, which aims to correct abnormalities or restore function, cosmetic surgery is typically elective and focuses on aesthetic appeal. Common procedures include facelifts, breast augmentation, liposuction, and rhinoplasty.
