John F. Farella, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Dr. John F. Farella Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. John F. Farella, a board certified plastic surgeon in New York, believes that liposuction, tummy tucks and other combination procedures are medical specialties comprising of reconstructive and cosmetic, or aesthetic surgery. Both reconstructive and cosmetic surgery help millions of patients of both sexes and all ages every year. Reconstructive surgery is performed on abnormal structures of the body caused by birth defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma or injury, infection, tumors or disease. It is generally intended to improve function, but may also be used to approximate a normal appearance. 

Cosmetic surgery reshapes normal structures of the body to improve the patient's appearance and self-esteem. Plastic surgery, whether cosmetic or reconstructive, encourages and promotes a strong, positive self-image. Even a small change on the outside can create an extraordinary change on the inside, allowing an individual's self-confidence to flourish. There are many good reasons for wanting to improve your appearance, not least of which is increasing self-confidence to enable social or business advancement.

Not every procedure is appropriate for everyone. Any treatment must be customized for the individual patient. Most patients have a specific complaint ... a single facial or body feature that keeps them from feeling attractive. Fortunately, there are perfectly good options available to them. Patients do not have to live out their lives with disproportionately sized noses, protruding ears, or eyes that look prematurely aged. Almost all areas of the body can be effectively reduced or augmented as needed. The process is slowly reshaping as technology advances and surgical procedures improve.
