Reconstructive surgery can help repair the part of your body that is affected from any of these issues. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, more than one million reconstructive surgery procedures are performed each year.
What Are the Different Types of Reconstructive Surgery Procedures?
If you can imagine how many injuries, birth defects or disfigurement issues arise in our imperfect lives, there is a procedure that can help improve the problem, whatever it may be. These include:
- Wound care. For individuals who have been severely burned or cut, skin grafts or other reconstructive techniques are available.
- Microsurgery or flap procedures. These surgeries can be performed to replace parts of the body affected by injury or disease, such as cancer.
- Facial surgeries. These can be performed to correct facial defects such as cleft lip, breathing problems or chronic infections, such as those that affect the sinuses, or even snoring.
How Will the Surgeon Evaluate My Case?
Like your issue that you want corrected, your procedure will be very individual. Dr. Wise will take a detailed medical history and evaluate your case based on your desired results and medical necessity.
For example, do you have a traumatic burn that affects underlying muscles and impacts your mobility? Have you had cancer and require surgery to multiple body parts? Dr. Wise will evaluate the severity of your case and advise you on the available options.
Like the procedures themselves, there are multiple surgical methods to achieve the desired results. Dr. Wise will help you weigh all the options and the two of you can decide together which one best suits you.
Plastic surgery can dramatically alter your appearance - and your quality of life. But many plastic surgery candidates shop for a surgeon like they shop for groceries. That is, they often make their buying decisions based solely on price, not quality. |
