The other day I had dinner with a friend and we talked about a topic, saying why are plastic surgeons so good at drawing, even to the extent of being able to abuse and cry a bunch of drawing students? In fact, for plastic surgeons, drawing is really a basic skill. In our earliest days as doctors, we drew our own surgical records. Unlike today’s doctors who can take pictures and keep them, they are relatively more realistic. At that time, to do a double eyelid, first of all, we need to draw the basic shape of the double eyelid, how wide to take the skin, and where to do the suture, all need to be recorded in the way of drawing. For example, when doing a hand trauma, you need to draw the different forms of a pair of hands, if it is a hand deformity, you need to draw the current state of the hand and the state that can be achieved after the operation, and the position of the incision during the operation, all of which need to be presented by drawing. In fact, not only drawing, I also learned sculpting in the early days. Through the human body’s teeth, bones, facial contours to do some carving, the exercise of basic skills. For plastic surgeons, medicine is not precisely art. Plastic surgeons need to realize the concept of beauty into life through their own hands. A painter takes a brush to paint, while a doctor takes a scalpel to do his work. The happiest time for the plastic surgeon is when the patient comes to give feedback on the results, and the patient is happy with the plastic surgeon. Nowadays, many people say ignore the appearance, focus on the inner. But when two people meet, the first impression does take up a very large proportion. Just like a kindergarten teacher, if it is a beautiful, cute child, then the teacher will also be willing to hug her more and braid her hair. It is reasonable for people to pursue beauty, whether it is beauty in appearance or beauty in mind, there is no need to avoid it. And as a plastic surgeon, his or her certain painting, photography and sculpture skills will help in the work, aesthetic enhancement as well as artistic cultivation is a very necessary part.
