We restore, rebuild, and make whole those parts which nature hath given but which fortune has taken away not so much that it may delight the eye but that it might buoy up the spirit and help the mind of the afflicted.
- Gaspare Tagliacozzi, 1570, Father of Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery is art and science, combining surgical and artistic skill to enhance and restore physical appearance and self-esteem. Our surgical expertise has changed over the years. Currently cosmetic surgical procedures are the majority of surgical procedures requested by individuals.
