2 Scientific advances have made plastic surgery an exciting proposition  Technologies are improving, there is better preoperative planning, and the procedures are becoming safer and much more precise with little or no side effects.  With state-of-the-art resources now available, plastic surgeons are able to create personalized solutions.  Technologies are improving, there is better preoperative planning, and the procedures are becoming safer and much more precise with little or no side effects.  With state-of-the-art resources now available, plastic surgeons are able to create personalized solutions.

3  Some of the notable examples of new technologies are:  Computerized surgical planning  Medical 3D imaging helped by computer graphics is extensively used by surgeons in pre-operative surgical planning.  Robotic Assisted Surgical (RAS) devices are making notable headway. These enable doctors to leverage computer and software technologies to navigate surgical instruments and make precise incisions in the human body.  Some of the notable examples of new technologies are:  Computerized surgical planning  Medical 3D imaging helped by computer graphics is extensively used by surgeons in pre-operative surgical planning.  Robotic Assisted Surgical (RAS) devices are making notable headway.
