Cosmetic Surgery - What You Should Know
by Mike Jones
Cosmetic surgery
is any surgical procedure that is designed to enhance your physical
appearance. Unless the cosmetic surgery is required as the result of
an accident, injury, or birth defect, the chances are the procedure
will not be covered by your insurance.
Although cosmetic
surgery may change your appearance and give you the confidence to face
the world with a whole new attitude, it doesn't change who you
"really" are inside. If you were lazy and unmotivated before your new
nose, you're likely to still be lazy and unmotivated after.
The most common
cosmetic surgery procedures are face lifts, liposuction, breast
enhancement, "nose jobs" and "tummy tucks" but this is by no means the
extent of what a cosmetic surgeon can do for you.
Cosmetic surgery
is performed by a doctor who has undergone specialized training in
either plastic or cosmetic surgery. When choosing a doctor always make
sure that they have been certified by either the American Board of
Plastic Surgery (ABPS) or the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery
(ABCS). They should have the certification document in plain view in
their office.
You'll want to
ask the following questions when you are interviewing the doctor:
1. How often have
you done this procedure?
2. How long have
you been doing this procedure?
3. What are the
best and worst case results that I can expect from this procedure?
4. What are the
potential risks or complications of this procedure?
5. What do I need
to do to prepare myself for this procedure?
