WHY HAVE PLASTIC SURGERY

In today’s society, as people live longer and healthier lives, an increasing premium is being placed on preserving one’s youthful appearance. Cosmetic and reconstructive surgery enables you to look as young, healthy, and energetic as you feel! Why not live your life to its fullest!

In our practice, we consult many men and women of all ages, social, and ethnic backgrounds who seek plastic surgery for personal as well as and professional reasons. Contrary the popular perception that people seek cosmetic enhancements to please their spouses or friends, we believe that most patients just want to feel better about themselves.

While many seek cosmetic surgery because of self-fulfillment, a growing number of others resort to cosmetic surgery for their work.

There is a growing pressure in the workforce not to look too old and rusty. Some fear being replaced by younger workers. They wish to take steps to correct some of the physical signs of aging in order to remain competitive. This does not only pertain to the entertainment industry but to all professions.

Of course there are a lot of patients seeking plastic surgery to reconstruct damaged or missing parts of their body, either after cancer surgery or following trauma. These patients psychological status improves dramatically after reconstructive plastic surgery.

In choosing a plastic surgeon, be wary of those who claim that there are universal, or precise, measurements that define beauty. Some of the great “beauties” of all time would be eliminated by such standards. Such precision would lead to a world of clones, rather than one of individuals with unique, and even attractively “imperfect” features.

YOUR CONSULTATION

At your first consultation, you should feel two things. One is that you are visiting a surgeon with the finest skills to achieve your goals. You should also feel that the plastic surgeon is your ally – a person with your best interests at heart.

To have cosmetic surgery is not like going to a department store to pick out an outfit. It is a real surgery, and therefore, involves risks, recovery period, and a reasonable time for things to settle before you can get the final product. Therefore, take your cosmetic surgery endeavor very seriously. Ask questions, but more importantly listen carefully to and follow your doctor’s instructions. You, as a patient, are a participant in your medical care, and therefore, the level of your participation can affect your aesthetic outcome.

Come with a list of your questions. Expect an honest answer to each one. Ask to see the plastic surgeon’s ‘Before and After‘ photos.

Make sure that you ask to see examples or sub-optimal results, because not everyone would get the perfect result. Share your fears, the pain or anxiety that led you to seek cosmetic surgery, and trust your instincts. You should feel a level not only of trust, but one of the utmost comfort and confidence. You should not feel intimidated by your plastic surgeon, and you should be receiving your primary advice from the surgeon, not from his or her staff. If, as you ask questions and share your concerns, you feel that the plastic surgeon has one foot out the door, rushing to his or her next consultation, you are with the wrong doctor!

Your plastic surgeon should not be offended by your questions or concerns. They should be able to adequately answer your questions about treatment options, pros and cons of each option, potential risks and complications of each surgery, expected recovery course, aesthetic expectations and limitations, and before and after care needed for the surgery that you are contemplating.
