he use of robotic surgery has grown exponentially during
the last two decades in many surgical specialities. Since
robots offer 100% tremor elimination and up to 5-to-1motion
scaling, robotic plastic surgery will allow the performance
of minimally invasive procedures with the highest levels
of precision. Some applications of robotic plastic surgery
have already been described, and more are almost certain
to emerge in the near future. However, robotic assisted
surgery and microsurgery requires additional skills that need
to be mastered and so specific training is mandatory. In this
presentation, we highlight the importance of robotic assisted
surgery in plastic surgery, focusing first on why a robotic
plastic surgery program should be implemented and how it
can improve our daily surgical practice. Secondly, we discuss
how it should be implemented in order to ensure that it is
feasible, safe, and will improve patients’ outcomes.
