Overview and Purpose
Plastic surgery is more than just cosmetic enhancement. The term comes from the Greek word plastikos, meaning to mold or form. This field includes two main types: reconstructive surgery, which restores function and appearance after injuries, cancer, or birth defects, and aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery, which focuses on improving appearance and symmetry. The main goal is to restore both form and function, helping people look and feel their best.
In the world of medicine, Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery is unique. It is the only specialty where the surgeon is also an artist, tasked not just with healing tissue but with harmonizing form and function. At Liv Hospital, we understand that changing your appearance is a deeply personal decision. It is not just about vanity; it is about self-confidence, restoration, and feeling comfortable in your own skin.
We reject the “one-size-fits-all” approach often seen in medical tourism. Instead, we champion the “Natural Look” philosophy—enhancing your features without erasing your identity. Whether you are seeking a subtle cosmetic refinement or complex reconstructive microsurgery, our internationally accredited team utilizes hospital-grade safety protocols to ensure your transformation is as secure as it is beautiful.
The term “plastic surgery” is a broad umbrella. At Liv Hospital, our department is divided into three specialized pillars to address every patient need:
One of the biggest fears international patients have is looking “fake” or “overdone.” At Liv Hospital, our aesthetic goal is invisibility. We believe the best plastic surgery is the kind that no one notices.
Our surgeons follow the Golden Ratio principles of facial and body harmony. We do not create identical “trend-based” noses or lips; we analyze your unique bone structure, skin quality, and ethnic background to design a result that looks like the best version of you.
Anxiety often stems from the unknown. “What will I look like?” is the most common question we hear. Liv Hospital eliminates the guesswork with VECTRA XT 3D Imaging.
Liv Hospital is a leader in Regenerative Medicine, and we have integrated this science directly into our plastic surgery practice. This sets us apart from standard cosmetic clinics.
We utilize our GMP-certified Stem Cell Center to enhance surgical results:

Choosing to have surgery abroad is a significant decision. Liv Hospital offers the security of a JCI-accredited, full-service university hospital, distinct from standalone “boutique” clinics.
Your doctor’s role: Describe the Plastic Surgeon as both an artist and a physician. Their role is to listen to the patient’s desires, provide honest feedback on what is surgically possible, and execute the procedure with meticulous attention to detail to minimize scarring.
Every person is different, so each surgical plan is made just for you. Whether you want a Mommy Makeover or a facelift, the approach is customized to fit your body and your goals.
On the day of surgery, your experience starts with the surgeon marking your skin to guide the procedure. After anesthesia, the surgery is performed with a strong focus on your safety and comfort at every step.
Plastic surgeons work closely with dermatologists to improve skin texture and with anesthesiologists to keep you safe during surgery. For reconstructive cases, they also team up with general surgeons or oncologists to provide complete care.
Before surgery, it’s important to prepare by stopping smoking and avoiding certain medications, as these can affect healing. Remember, patience is important because swelling may hide your final results for several weeks or even months.
After surgery, you may need to wear compression garments, manage drainage if needed, and follow scar care instructions. Keeping a steady weight and living a healthy lifestyle are important for keeping your results over time.
Plastic surgery is the broad specialty covering both reconstructive and aesthetic procedures, while cosmetic surgery specifically focuses on enhancing appearance and is a subcategory of the larger field.
You should verify that the surgeon is certified by a recognized board, such as the major board for this specialty in your country, which ensures they have completed a specific, rigorous residency training program.
No, modern medicine offers a wide range of non-surgical options, including injectables, laser treatments, and skin tightening technologies that can provide significant improvements with less downtime.
There is no single “best” age; it depends on the specific procedure and the individual’s physical maturity and health, though some procedures, like ear pinning, can be done in childhood while others are for adults.
The consultation allows the surgeon to assess your physical health, examine your anatomy, discuss your goals, and determine if the procedure you want is safe and appropriate for you.
