Plastic surgery clinics are medical facilities where specialized plastic surgeons, perform various cosmetic and reconstructive surgical procedures to enhance or restore the appearance of the face, body, or specific body parts. These clinics offer a wide range of procedures catering to diverse patient needs and preferences. Some of the main procedures commonly performed at plastic surgery clinics include:

1. Breast augmentation: This procedure involves enhancing the size and shape of the breasts using implants or fat transfer techniques.

2. Rhinoplasty: Also known as nose reshaping or a nose job, rhinoplasty is performed to improve the appearance and function of the nose by reshaping its size, shape, or proportions.

3. Liposuction: Liposuction is a surgical procedure to remove excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks, arms, or chin.

4. Facelift: A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure to rejuvenate the face by tightening sagging skin, removing excess fat, and smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines.
