Plastic surgeons who specialize in cosmetic procedures have much in common with such classical artists as Rembrandt and Van Gogh. The master artists who deal with human forms must enjoy anatomy, study it constantly and transform their creative imagery to paper, canvas, marble or clay.

The works of Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo not only employ artistry in its greatest form, but reflect science as well. Likewise, an aesthetic plastic surgeon must combine artistic and scientific qualities with in-depth study and training, creative skill and experience.
