Reasons for Cosmetic Procedures

By Alistair Nole


It's more accepted nowadays that a cosmetic surgeon should be involved in consultation for treatments that address certain signs of aging, such as wrinkles or a loss of elasticity in the skin. Excessive skin or a loss of collagen in certain parts of the face may require treatment that can provide the proper course of action in order to get the results that you want. Treatment options have grown dramatically in the past ten years and their popularity continues to explode. What is it that motivates people today to have treatments done?

Self esteem is certainly at the heart of many people's decision to seek treatments. Some are looking to improve confidence, decrease self-consciousness. For example, one may see their nose as large or conspicuous. Whether it is or not, if a person believes it to be true, this belief can create the reality and cause discomfort and anxiety. For some who work very hard to look their best, whether it be through exercise, diet, clothes, makeup, et cetera, an area that they would like to make just a bit better or a problem or flaw that they can improve upon, can be quite important. When this is linked to sexuality, the level of importance goes up a few notches.

A person's sense of improvement in quality of life or work can actually be the end result of a change. This can include things like wearing the bathing suits and clothes you want to wear. Or, going to the beach is enjoyable for you, and you want to feel good about your body. Perhaps you deal with the public a lot or have a very public job. These factors all contribute to the decision.

Vanity, which can be closely connected with self esteem, is one of the top motivators. Wanting to regain a lost positive attribute is only natural. For example, my lips always had volume but now... , my figure was always nice but now.... Having good positive reinforcement over the years and losing that attribute can be like losing one's self-identity.

It's completely normal to want to slow down, reverse or turn back those effects of aging that start to show up, or have been creeping up for some time. Moreover, wanting to alter or improve a feature that you have always disliked is equally natural. Your views may change as you mature -- you might decide that, after years of reflection on a feature, that it is definitely something you would like improved.

Another motivator is health reasons. The various unpleasant postpartum changes to the body can be depressing for any mom. And correcting post-weight loss body changes can be a real tangible benefit. Also, there could be a need to relieve physical factors or symptoms. For example,chronic recurrent headaches, neck strain, lower back pain, shoulder notching, numbing or tingling in the hands due to nerve stretch could all be relieved by a breast reduction -- these are all associated with excessively large, heavy, dense breasts (mammary hypertrophy). Almost all of these problems are 100% remedied by a breast reduction procedure.

Another big motivator can be dramatic life changes. People may feel like they are wearing their divorce on their face or that their job, or some other significant life stress has aged them. There are clear, safe and affordable options available for anyone looking to make those changes or small corrections, whatever the reasons.
