Aesthetic surgery is the natural evolution of reconstructive surgery done to improve a patient's form in addition to function. This becomes especially critical in the pediatric age group in which patients are constantly evolving and their concepts of self-esteem and body image are so fragile.
美容外科是整形手术的自然演进,除了改善功能外,还能改善患者的外形。这在儿科年龄组中尤为关键,因为该年龄段的患者仍在不断成长,他们的自尊和身体形象观念非常脆弱。
