cosmetic surgeries

Elective appearance alterations

Cosmetic surgeries are medical procedures performed to alter or enhance physical appearance rather than to treat illness or injury.

Common examples include facelifts, breast augmentation, liposuction, and rhinoplasty (nose reshaping).

The term distinguishes these elective procedures from reconstructive surgeries, which restore function or normal appearance after trauma or disease.

She's considering cosmetic surgeries to address signs of aging.

The field has expanded dramatically with advances in technology and shifting cultural attitudes toward aesthetic enhancement.
