Since a large part of plastic surgery isn't immediately "lifesaving" like say general surgery or ct surgery (or non-surgical fields like emergency medicine/critical care etc.) are they regarded as kind of "less" of a doctor by other doctors.

Don't mean anything bad by this. I'm actually really interested in the field (although i obviously need more knowledge of it), but this is just a random question that popped into my mind.
