What does Cosmetic Surgery Have to do with Confidence?

When you feel confident in your outward appearance, that confidence can spill over into all aspects of your life, personal and professional. In addition to enhancing natural beauty or correcting perceived imperfections, elective cosmetic surgery can also rejuvenate your self-esteem. Patients should be making a plastic surgery decision to reach their personal goals and not the expectations of others, though, so talk to your plastic surgeon to see if and which procedure is right for you.

• For women who have gone through pregnancy, delivery and breastfeeding, the toll of motherhood often reveals itself on the body. This guide to the mommy makeover discusses which procedures are involved and how the process can help tired moms feel younger and more confident again.
• While not all patients feel this way, many women who have undergone breast augmentation say the procedure helped to bolster their self-esteem. This WebMD guide to breast implants and confidence explores if and how breast augmentation impacts patients.
• Do you feel self-conscious about wearing a swimsuit in the summer? Do you try to cover up stomach flab with extra fabric or larger sizes? A tummy tuck can tighten up the abdominal walls and excess skin to help you look and feel great in your clothes.

While plastic surgery is not a solution for psychological issues, it can help patients to look as young or refreshed as they feel. Talk with your plastic surgeon to discuss your reasons for seeking out plastic surgery and to see if a procedure is right for you.

How Popular is Plastic Surgery for Men?

With more than 1.1 million procedures recorded in 2010 alone, elective cosmetic surgery among American men is growing increasingly popular. In addition to enhancing their self-confidence, many male patients choose cosmetic surgery as a response to competition from younger men in their personal and professional lives. According to U.S. statistics, rhinoplasty is currently the most popular elective procedure performed on men, followed by eyelid surgery. Chin augmentation rounds out the top three.

If you are a male considering plastic surgery, schedule a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your objectives, options, and potential outcomes.

SkinTyte: Can Laser Treatments Improve Skin Elasticity?

If you desire a more youthful appearance without undergoing a surgical procedure like a face lift, talk to your plastic surgeon about your laser treatment options. With non-invasive laser skin firming treatments like SkinTyte, you can achieve smoother, more elastic skin after as few as one appointment.  

• What is SkinTyte? SkinTyte is an innovative laser treatment technique that utilizes infrared energy to stimulate collagen production. During the procedure, your physician or licensed aesthetician will direct the infrared energy to specified areas of the face. The energy will then penetrate the upper layers of skin to reach the dermis, where collagen resides.
• How does SkinTyte work? Collagen is responsible for skin’s youthful appearance, and collagen production is what creates suppleness and elasticity in the skin. With age, though, collagen production begins to slow and existing collagen begins to deteriorate as a result of factors like sun exposure and smoking. The infrared energy harnessed during a SkinTyte treatment stimulates collagen fibers, effectively promoting new collagen growth and restoring the skin’s former suppleness and elasticity.
• How quickly will a patient see results with SkinTyte? Unlike surgical procedures, SkinTyte is performed on an outpatient basis and requires a shorter recovery period. During the procedure itself, patients experience little to no discomfort and will begin to see results in a matter of days. For the most effective results, your doctor may recommend a series of regular treatments performed over several months. While SkinTyte is commonly used to restore the vitality of facial skin, it is also effective on other parts of the body that have experienced collagen loss, such as the stomach.

Should You Undergo Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift?

If you are dissatisfied with the look or feel of your breasts, you may be considering a cosmetic surgery procedure to enhance their appearance and your confidence. Women who desire a shapelier, more lifted bust line may be wondering if breast augmentation or breast lift is the right procedure for them. Depending on your goals, your plastic surgeon will recommend the procedure that will help you achieve your desired outcomes.

Breast Augmentation

A breast augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that utilizes breast implants to create larger, fuller breasts. A surgery of this kind is performed to enhance the appearance and shape of the breasts, and many patients experience a greater level of satisfaction with their appearance and confidence following the procedure. Some patients may undergo breast augmentation to enhance breast size while others may want to restore lost volume after a scenario like weight loss or breastfeeding. Patients who have had their natural breasts removed due to breast cancer may also consider breast augmentation.

Breast Lift

A plastic surgeon may advise a breast lift for patients who desire more lifted breasts but not larger ones. Women may choose to have breast lift procedures if their breasts have become loose and saggy from pregnancy, breastfeeding, or age. If a patient wishes both to lift sagging breasts and to increase their size, she may elect to have a breast augmentation and breast lift performed at the same time.
