Plastic surgery has undergone a remarkable evolution, expanding
beyond traditional reconstructive techniques to include a wide spectrum of
surgical and non-surgical procedures. The growing complexity of patient care
and the heightened emphasis on holistic, patient-centred approaches have
necessitated a re-evaluation of educational strategies in the field.
Integrative teaching models are emerging as a response to these evolving
demands, aiming to harmonise conventional surgical instruction with
complementary therapies, interdisciplinary collaboration, and progressive
pedagogical methods. This comprehensive review explores the principles,
practices, benefits, and challenges of integrative teaching in plastic surgery.
Emphasising structured curricula, interdisciplinary exposure, mind-body
interventions, simulation-based training, and evidence-driven innovations, the
review underscores how integrative teaching can cultivate technically
proficient, empathetic, and adaptable plastic surgeons capable of meeting the
multifaceted needs of modern patients. The chapter will provide an overview of
integrative teaching to the residents and young teachers of Plastic and
Reconstructive Surgery.
