It happens to all of us. We look in the mirror everyday dissatisfied
with our nose, our lips, or our cheeks.
As the years go by and we stare at ourselves long enough it is common to
want to change what we see. Considering
plastic surgery to change the trouble spots we see in the mirror is a
complicated and difficult decision.
Often times invasive surgery and the subsequent healing process is
painful and could take month for a full recovery.
There is also the financial strain
of plastic surgery to consider. Health
care providers in many circumstances are unwilling to pay for part or all of
elective surgery, leaving the patient with a costly bill for their new
face. This is why it is important to
consider nonsurgical options to changing your face before going under the
knife. Consulting with your doctor or
dermatologist about noninvasive procedures is an important step to finding the
new you. Here are a few procedures that
may help tackle your problems without winding up on the surgical table.
NONSURGICAL
RHINOPLASTY
One of the most popular plastic
surgical procedures is rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping. Those whose self-consciousness is shaken or
those who have major difficulty breathing too quickly turn to surgery to create
facial balance. Before considering the
more invasive option, it is important to think about nonsurgical rhinoplasy
first. Though it will not change the
size of your nose, the procedure, which fills in certain areas of the nose with
chemical filler can alter shape and form.
The procedure is far less invasive than surgery and can often times give
balance to the nose and help with breathing issues.
ANTIAGING
For many people, changing your face
means looking like their younger selves.
But popular invasive surgeries such as facelifts are only one route to
rediscovering the new you. Before
considering surgery it is important to ask your doctor about treatments such as
micro dermabrasion, which removes the top layer of skin from the face, smoothing
out wrinkles. Laser treatment is also an
option to consider. This is a quick
process that can tighten skin around the face and neck to give you a younger
look.
Aesthetic facial issues are a
serious subject with serious implications.
No one wants to start their day disappointed with what they see in the
mirror. Whether you are looking to
reverse the course of aging or correct trouble spots, it is important to
consider your nonsurgical options before undergoing any procedure.
