Cosmetic surgery is often labelled as being
superficial. However, if you look into the real and right reasons why people go
through cosmetic surgery, you will realise it is so much more than superficial.
There is a reason why the cosmetic surgery
industry exists – unfortunately only 1 in 5 are actually happy with their body
and appearance. Contrary to our wishes, this is the sad reality, and can lead
to lack of self-confidence and self-esteem, which in turn can cause greater
problems in other aspects of their lives.
One of the biggest reasons women and men
undergo cosmetic surgery is to improve their confidence and self-esteem. Body
image is how an individual perceives their body, not a reflection of someone
else’s perception. Cosmetic surgeons must have a serious understanding of an
individual’s body-image, to make sure the client is not unrealistically hoping
for cosmetic surgery to solve issues in other areas of their life.
It is also important for the Surgeon to
manage realistic expectations, especially when patients are bringing in ideas
and pictures of desired results. Knowing what you want is important, however
may not always be suitable for your face or body. It is important for surgeons
to recognise this and make recommendations to the client according to their
individual needs and results.
