Plastic is not used in plastic surgery. It is a process where skillful surgeons repair damaged skin or create a new look. Where the term 'plastic' come from, I have no idea.

Dictionary Definition:
Main Entry: plastic surgery
Function: noun
: a branch of surgery concerned with the repair, restoration, or improvement of lost, injured, defective, or misshapen parts of the body chiefly by transfer of tissue; also : an operation performed for such a purpose
What it means:
If one has been in an accident or is simply not happy with ones appearance, than one can have a surgery to fix whatever they feel needs to be fixed.
In your case, I'm assuming that you're talking about the removal of a tat, there is a VERY effective laser surgery nowadays that will completely remove the tat, with little to no scarring, depending on the skill of the surgeon.
And yes, it does fall under the category of plastic surgery.

Please speak English and/or use the spell check. Plastic surgery is a term used for surgical alteration and/or repair of a defect or in the case of say a breast enhancement, a perceived defect.
