Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involved with the reconstruction of facial and body tissue defects due to illness, trauma, infection, birth disorders, or the result of surgically excising tumours. Plastic surgery aims to restore and improve structure and function, as well as appearance and improve the patient’s quality of life. Against a backdrop of enormous human calamity on an international scale, a small island nation at the bottom of the world played a crucial role in the development of this innovative form of service surgery.
