Removal of Moles, Cysts, and Scars.

Skin lesions such as warts, moles, tumors, cancer, scars, or cysts are changes that occur in the skin due to sun exposure, trauma, degenerative conditions, varicose veins, congenital factors, or surgeries, among others.

Most skin lesions are treatable through surgical procedures, both reconstructive and aesthetic, to remove them and achieve a pleasing and healthy appearance.

Hemangiomas

Hemangiomas are the most common benign tumors in children, originating from the proliferation of endothelial cells, causing rapid growth.

Generally, they do not appear at birth but develop during the first year of life and evolve in various ways. It is important to consult a plastic surgeon to detect any abnormalities that might pose a risk to the child, as there are now multiple surgical and non-surgical treatments available.

Breast Reconstruction.

Many patients who, due to a diagnosis of breast cancer, have undergone a mastectomy or breast removal may opt for a breast reconstruction procedure to restore the appearance of their breasts.

This procedure aims to renew the sense of femininity and beauty by restoring the size and natural shape of the breast.

Goals of Breast Reconstruction:

• Recreate a naturally appearing breast, including reconstructing the areola and nipple.
• Restore the body image by eliminating the deformity resulting from the mastectomy.
• Eliminate the need for wearing filler prostheses.

Burns.

Burns are injuries caused by various agents such as the sun, fire, hot water, or chemicals. They represent a significant cause of functional and psychological disability, especially in young adults and children.

It is crucial for burns to be treated by a plastic surgeon to prevent sequelae due to inadequate management. These types of injuries require management by well-trained professionals and a multidisciplinary approach.

Hand Reconstruction.

Hand injuries are a significant cause of work-related disability in young adults, as the hand is an essential tool for work. Any injury in this area can have serious consequences.

Accidents at work and home are among the most frequent. Plastic surgeons have special training to address these types of conditions. It is crucial that any hand injury be evaluated by a plastic surgeon to prevent sequelae or disability.
