Plastic reconstructive surgery improves the functionality of the body by correcting any issues or deformities caused by birth defects, diseases, injuries, or aging. At East Bay Cardiovascular & Thoracic Associates, we regularly perform plastic reconstructive surgery for a number of conditions.
When someone is born with a condition, the condition is referred to as congenital. Many people have congenital defects that can be resolved with plastic reconstructive surgery.
Acquired conditions are those which occur at any point after birth. These conditions are primarily a result of disease, infection, accident, or injury.
The recovery and healing process after a reconstructive procedure is incredibly important. Complications can occur during this time, and so patients should always make sure to contact us if anything unusual or unexpected happens.
The exact details of a person’s recovery will vary depending on the type of procedure they received, their body’s ability to heal, and a number of additional factors.
To prepare for the healing process, speak with your doctor about recovery during your consultation. Ask them about the details of recovery and what to expect. They will instruct you in the proper aftercare methods to ensure that you have a comfortable recovery with minimal complications.
