Cosmetic Solutions
Cosmetic Surgery is now becoming mainstream. In the past it was the domain of movie stars and those who were in the public eye. Cosmetic surgery covers many procedures, some of the more popular ones are:
- Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty)
- Breast Augmentation
- Eyelid Surgery
- Liposuction
- Thermage
- Botox® Cosmetic
- Buttock Implants
- Non invasive body slimming, and
- Other plastic surgery procedures
Nowdays there are some non surgical procedures that may present a suitable alternative such as dermal fillers, wrinkle free creams and the external ultrasound liposuction devices which stimulate and liquify fatty deposits for removal. These should be considered as another option particularly if you are a bit squeamish about going under the knife.
The Cost
While these procedures are life changing and invariably lift both parts of the body as well as the spirits there are dangers and can also lift a significant part of your wallet. For those who can afford it some of the best renowned surgeons in the world are available, but these specialists can come at a hefty price. The alternative may be cut price surgery available in the Caribbean, Mexico and South East Asian Countries such as the Philippines. Some provide good results but others have been disastrous and the cut price is no longer a cheap option after corrective surgery if it can be performed. It’s a case of “Caveat Emptor” in other words – buyers beware. You get what you pay for and there are risks. It is after all in most cases a surgical procedure which entails risks.
Market Acceptance
Nevertheless Cosmetic Surgery is now being embraced by many who probably in the past would not have ventured down this path because it was seen as narcissistic (vain). The Baby Boomers (those born after WW2 and up to 1964) provide one of the biggest markets for plastic surgeons. These folk may be looking for a new love partner or finally have the money to be able to regain some of their youth. Cosmetic surgery is not just the domain of women many men now seek to sculpt their abs, seek breast augmentation or have hair transplants.
