Facial Injuries - How Can A Plastic Surgeon Be Helpful?

Facial injuries can be devastating for the emotional wellbeing of every person, if not for physical well-being. Whether it is trauma, surgery, an acid spill or a burn, it can destroy the look of the person. Not only can it disfigure the face, but also damage the underlying tissue and expose it to infections. The primary goal of plastic surgeons is to save lives, prevent infections and repair the damage to the tissue. When all these goals are addressed, plastic surgeons continue to reconstruct the face and bring it back to near normal with staged maxillofacial surgeries to address the damage repair and reconstruction of face.
