Pediatric plastic surgery is a specific field of surgery which includes reconstructive and aesthetic-cosmetic procedures in children.

As aesthetic procedures in children are not so frequent, only a small group of clinicians are familiar with this part of surgery. ------------- Our members see more. Join us!
