Plastic surgery is a specialization in medicine, which involves the reconstruction, restoration and alteration of a body part. Reconstructive surgery which aims to reconstruct a body part, and cosmetic surgery that is performed for aesthetic reasons are encompassed under plastic surgery.

Cleft lip and palate, rare craniofacial clefts, isolated and syndromic craniosynostosis, Crouzon's syndrome, craniofacial microsomia, etc. are treated in this domain. This book provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of head and neck medicine and associated specializations. The extensive content herein provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
