What Is Reconstructive Surgery?
Reconstructive surgery is actually a broad term that can be used to describe a number of procedures designed to restore certain parts of the body to their former appearance. Dr. Sood puts patient safety and comfort first and foremost in each of these procedures. Some common types of reconstructive surgery include the following:
- Breast Reconstruction
- Ear Surgery
- Skin Cancer
- Silagen for Scar Management
Benefits of Reconstructive Surgery
Long after wounds have healed, the effects of an injury linger whenever someone has become disfigured. Reconstructive surgery allows for complete healing by restoring an individual to his or her former glory. This results in greater self-confidence and, for many patients, the freedom to enjoy life again. Other benefits include the following:
- Procedures tailored to meet each person’s needs
- Procedures covered by medical insurance in many cases
