You don't learn to be a plastic surgeon until after med school. You have to get a plastic surgery residency to be trained as one. You go to teaching hospitals, where you work on actual patients while being supervised by someone higher than you.
Watch Scrubs (earlier seasons) or Gray's Anatomy. Attendings are the real doctors who would be the "professors". Interns would be "freshmen" and residents are the upper classmen.

After your four years in med school, you do a four year residency at a hospital in plastic surgery, where you will assist in the surgeries.
