What is Plastic Surgery?

On the other hand, reconstructive procedures focus on counteracting the unwanted effects of a disease that need to be removed either for a health-related reason or to eliminate the malformed areas caused by genetic backgrounds.

History of Plastic Surgery

As much as it may seem a novel invention, plastic surgery has its origin way before in history. Egyptians used it even 3000 BC. The precursor of something that we contemporarily call “nose-job” is attributed to a surgeon called Antonio Branca. It is described by the slippery-named Heinrich von Pfolspeundt in his seminal 1460 work ‘Buch der Bündth-Ertznei’. Then, not until the late 18th century came the next significant advancement in the history of plastic surgery. It was a technique using a leaf-shaped flap from the forehead to reconstruct the nose. Next, Felix Jean Casimir Guyon of Paris and Jacques Reverdin of Geneva added to the field. They developed more advanced skin grafts in 1869. In 20th century most of the advancements of plastic surgery occurred and handed over to us in its modern form.

As for Iran, there is some evidence regarding the practice of something like plastic surgery in Iran in old history. Some are: methods on how to treat facial injuries and fractures of the nose and jawbone. The beginning of the modern form of plastic surgery in Iran traces back to 43 years ago by the hands of Dr. Osanloo. He performed the first rhinoplasty surgery in Iran. Since then the field of plastic surgeries in Iran has been consistently developing until this country became currently known as a capital of rhinoplasty surgeries in the world.
