At first, cosmetic surgery was intended and reserved to assist wounded and deformed soldiers in war. Soldiers that would return from battle with missing legs and cut faces entrusted their appearance to the hands of skilled surgeons. The development of cosmetic surgery received a push from the need to repair gross deformities to the need to change normal and typical physical appearances. Surgeons, at that time, intended cosmetic surgery for surgical repair of acquired deformities and the make over of contour to improve the appearance and function of body defects. However, the objectives of cosmetic surgery have changed as days went by. It has become a mechanism that women and men turn to in hopes of changing their appearance.
