What is cosmetic surgery?

Mr Simon Mackey, Consultant Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeon, talks about cosmetic surgery and what it is.

Transcript

Cosmetic surgical procedures are those procedures which are designed to improve appearance.

Now there's often a gain in function with a cosmetic surgical procedure and many of the operations that we use for cosmetic surgery are actually based in reconstructive practice and likewise a number of the procedures that we use for reconstruction are based in cosmetic surgical practice. 

So the two really are interchangeable, but cosmetic surgery is performed by plastic surgeons to improve appearance.

FAQs

How much does plastic and cosmetic surgery cost? +

Visit our treatment pages for details of the cost of individual procedures.

How many cosmetic surgeries can I have at once? +

Certain cosmetic procedures pair well together like breast and abdominal surgery, arm and thigh lifts, or facial treatments such as facelifts, eyelid surgery, and chin liposuction.

Combining procedures can be more cost effective and efficient, with just one anaesthetic, hospital stay, and recovery period. However, safety is paramount and surgeons typically limit combinations to one or two additional procedures.

Why shouldn’t I have plastic and cosmetic surgery abroad? +

At Benenden Hospital, we advocate for safe, private surgery where patients can invest in their body, health and confidence. While surgery abroad may appear more affordable, it often comes with increased risks and less stringent regulations.

Upon returning to the UK, many surgeons may be unwilling to address non-urgent concerns related to procedures overseas and it may be more difficult to deal with post-operative complications. In the event of a life-threatening complication, seek immediate care at your nearest A&E department.
