People are curious about why it is called plastic surgery. Plastic surgery comes from the Greek verb ‘plastikos’, which means ‘to change. Therefore, plastic surgery is the surgery of change. The trick is to make only the right changes. I always tell my patients that plastic surgery exists for only one reason – we are ALL our own worst critics! For this very reason, I spend as much time as needed with each consultation and every patient. My focus is to understand precisely the changes the patient would like and make sure that those goals are achievable. It is my responsibility to the patient then to explain how those results can be achieved and what the surgical limitations in their particular case may be, if any.
