What is plastic surgery?

The name "plastic" comes from the Greek plastikos, which means "change" or "transformation". In other words, plastic surgery is the alteration or transformation of a person's body. It is a surgical speciality that adapts one’s appearance from an aesthetic and/or a functional point of view. Officially, this field is called "plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery", because the profession entails much more than mere aesthetic surgery. Delta Clinic focuses mainly on aesthetic (cosmetic) plastic surgery.

Cosmetic and plastic surgery

Plastic surgery can consist of fixing congenital or contracted physical defects (= reconstructive surgery), but also cosmetic operations without medical necessity. In that case, it is more a matter of the mental wellbeing of the patient. As in reconstructive surgery, aesthetic surgery pays attention to restoring the function and, above all, the shape of certain parts of the body.

Sometimes there is hardly any distinction between aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, they might even overlap. If the plastic surgeon reconstructs a birth defect (such as a harelip), not only will the function of the lip be restored, also the aesthetic aspect will be taken care of, which is important as well. The growing child should not be too strongly reminded of his previous defect when he looks into the mirror.

Plastic surgery and its pros and cons

Delta Clinic guarantees a fair and transparent approach. During various personal meetings we discuss your complaints, wishes and expectations in detail, before looking at what we can do for you within your budget. During these consultations, both the advantages and the disadvantages of the procedure will be discussed, so that you know what you are in for. Evidently we aim for a minimum of complications and a favourable physical and mental evolution.

Facial plastic surgery

The classic facelift will help to reduce wrinkling and sagging in the middle area of the face. A brow or forehead lift can make the forehead area smooth and wrinkle-free. A neck lift is perfect to reduce the appearance or prominence of wrinkling in the lower half of the face.

When it comes to looking younger, the eyes play a major role. Eyelid surgery can be very effective by reducing the sagging of the upper eyelid and the bagginess beneath the eyes. These surgeries can work wonders on your appearance and make you look younger instantly.

Liposuction and breast surgery

Besides the face, the body can also be enhanced through plastic surgery. One of the best options to make different parts of the body slim and firm is liposuction. Liposuction will remove problem pockets of fat from your body, and can be performed practically anywhere. It can be the perfect help you need to tone and refine your upper arms, chest area, buttocks, abdomen, thighs, and even parts of the face.

As women age, they may notice that their breasts start sagging over time. To counter this, breast surgery can be used to lift the breast, which results in firmer and better-looking breasts. Breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation, reduction or enlargement to help improve the appearance even further. Together with you, our doctors will look for the most effective and suitable option for you.
