Aesthetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgery Can Improve Your Self Esteem
Do you not feel good about yourself? Are you horrified every time you look in the mirror? Maybe your nose is too big or too small, maybe your bust size isn't as large as you'd like it to be, or maybe you have a large birthmark on your face that you'd like removed.
Whatever you'd like to change about yourself, you should first find a center for plastic and reconstructive surgery and sit down with one of the resident surgeons. The two of you will talk about what you want done, what your expectations are, how you will pay for the procedure, and you'll discuss how the procedure is completed. However, first the surgeon must determine if you are a good candidate for aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery.
BDD
Body Dysmorphic Disorder is a condition that's still not fully understood. Basically, it works like this: a person looks in the mirror and sees themselves, or a certain body part, as hideous. This is how they perceive themselves even though nobody else can see it. This causes them to go on drastic diets, to stay away from social situations, to wear baggy clothing, to wear their hair in front of their face; and basically it ruins their lives. If the surgeon performing the aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery determines that this is what you have, he or she may recommend a good psychotherapist. Surgery, even aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery cannot help someone with this disorder, no matter how much they beg for it.
You're A Good Candidate
If the surgeon determines that aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery can help you, then he or she will tell you how the procedure will be performed, you'll talk about payment options, if there will be any downtime and what results you can expect. It's important that you have realistic results. You're still going to look like you. Aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery can make you look different but it's not going to turn you into a celebrity if looking that way isn't in your genes. So make sure your expectations are realistic before you opt for the surgery.
Good Self Esteem
However, if you have bad self esteem because of a certain part of you, and that can be fixed by aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, then, by all means, have it done so that you can have a better outlook on life.
