Plastic Surgery
Plastic surgery, so popular with society women overseas for restoring the youthful contours of the face, is no modern discovery. It was well known in India over two thousand years ago. The early Greeks and Romans also practised plastic surgery, and our present-day method is
modelled on the work of a famous 16th century Italian plastic surgeon. We are not as modern, after all, as we think we are.
