Cosmetic surgery can accomplish a lot. Research has done well to show us that cosmetic surgery procedures affect the physical and, in so doing, have a positive impact on the level of self-esteem a person enjoys. We enjoy seeing the benefits that our patients receive from the procedure that is right for them. At the same time, we wish to lessen any stress or confusion that may occur at the onset of the process.
Many people assume that the path to plastic surgery success is a straight line from beginning to end. Simultaneously, there is a tendency for people also to make assumptions about how they will attain the results they desire. Here are a few examples.
Liposuction is what I need.
One of the primary assumptions that can be made before a formal surgical consultation is that fat reduction from the midsection is the path to a flat stomach. This assumption can be especially off the mark for women who have had children. There is an inherent stretching that occurs during pregnancy that leads to laxity across the midsection. Removing excess fatty tissue, then, could worsen the appearance of the abdomen rather than improve it.
I can get what I want from injectables.
Here is a widespread assumption based on the power of products like Botox, that facial plastic surgery is no longer relevant for the younger individual. In fact, men and women as young as their forties are discovering the immense value of surgical lifting. To assume that injectables can reduce more advanced signs of aging without disrupting the natural curves of the face isn’t much different than assuming you can look younger by having the skin on your face tightened excessively. The key to good cosmetic treatment is that it rejuvenates the face without altering the organic nuances that exist. In many cases, facelift procedures are enhanced with cheek augmentation using either soft tissue fillers, implants, or the patients’ fat.
