Have you ever wondered about the term “plastic” surgery?  The term plastic surgery comes from the Greek language, and literally means reshaping or remodeling from the original flesh. 

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories: reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery.  Today we welcome Shannon Urena from Aultman Medical Group Plastic Surgery and we will be discussing different types of plastic surgery.
