I know lots of people are curious about these procedures. I'm not sure if anyone would be interested in this, but I know some people like to watch these type of things. I found a website that allows you to watch surgeries live, and they have archives of surgeries also. For anyone who is considering or have considered plastic surgery, you may want to watch how it happens and what goes on. Here's the site. OR-Live.com If you watch anything interesting on the site, maybe you could tell us about it.Thanks.

ya.... i seen the photos of surgery.actually Plastic surgery includes both operations that pose little risk to the patient and also more major procedures that include larger risks. Major plastic surgery sometimes uses grafts or flaps to move tissue from one part of the body to another, and can involve the need to cut bone and to provide blood transfusions, as well as risk of injury to the parts of the body where grafts and flaps are taken. These kinds of operations can last many hours and require more than one team of surgeons. Because ethical surgeons and thoughtful patients do not engage in elective surgery that poses these significant risks in an effort to increase beauty, cosmetic surgery less commonly involves the use of such techniques.

Thanks for your response, it sounds really painful. I cant say that I would never do it, but I dont have any plans to have any kind of plastic surgery anytime soon. To me it's scary!

Lol, I visited the site, it is a wonderful finding, and it will be helpful for developing social awareness regarding plastic surgery. But you must have a strong nerve to watch out that.

I see nothing wrong with anyone opting for cosmetic surgery if they are psychologically sound. As for corrective surgery which can be for anything from a congential defect to repairing the ravages of an accident of some type, it can restore a person's self confidence or make going out in public a more comfortable experience. As for observing a surgerical procedure, I see no oddity in that either, I find the procedure fasinating and educational. Learning why moving one part one way or the other to achieve a desired result....or where the nerves have to be gone around or the ones that can be moved. I would imagine being able to see such things online could influence a person to persue a career in medicine or surgery of any type. Thank you, I will take a look at this site. Never know who might desire to view something like this to decide a career or to make a choice whether or not to risk this type of surgery.

Plastic surgery is a personal decision. It's body modification. This type of modification is not my style, but to each his own.

Plastic surgery is a specialty that uses surgical techniques to improve the appearance and function of patients' bodies. Some of these operations are called "cosmetic", and others are called "reconstructive". Nearly all of the operations that plastic surgeons themselves consider the highest achievements within their profession are in that second category: reconstructive[citation needed]. Descriptions of plastic surgery that depict reconstructive plastic surgery and cosmetic plastic surgery as two entirely different fields within the specialty can be misleading.Whether or not a procedure is "only" cosmetic has a lot to do with the reason behind its performance. For example, a facelift that undermines the soft tissues of the face and redrapes them to tighten the flesh is not always cosmetic rather than reconstructive. A facelift performed to tighten the normal skin of a seventy-year old is called a cosmetic surgery procedure because it is only aimed to provide a more youthful appearance. Yet a facelift in that same person would be considered reconstructive if it was part of a procedure to remove a skin cancer, and was used to close the defect left where the cancer was excised (cut out). The reconstructive facelift would avoid leaving the two sides of the face strikingly uneven (asymmetric) at the end of the operation, and even though the patient would likely end up looking younger, this would not be considered a cosmetic procedure because its main purpose is to give the patient a more normal appearance after cancer surgery.
