Plastic surgery is the single most diverse specialty in the medical field, dealing with the problems from the top of the head to the tip of the toes and with the patients ranging in age from the newborn to nonagenarian. It is unrestricted by organ system, disease process and it is rightly called the "Problem solving speciality ".
PLASTIC Surgery is derived from the Greek word "Plastikos" meaning to mould/ shape and the Roman word "Plasty" meaning to repair,restore and replace.
It is broadly divided into two sub specialties- Reconstructive Plastic surgery and Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
Our own eminent surgeon Sushrutha 600 Bc is the regarded as the Father of Ancient Plastic Surgery.
Harold Gilles is regarded as the Father of modern Plastic Surgery.
The three main principles of Plastic surgery are
1) To restore the form ( anatomy)
2) To restore the function (physiology)
3) To restore the aesthetics ( cosmesis)
