Plastic surgery has become a trend, both in life and in employment interviews, where personal temperament and physical appearance are increasingly valued by everyone. But as a professor of plastic surgery who has been practicing for decades, I need to remind you: plastic surgery is not a trivial matter, are you really ready for it? Do you know if you are suitable for plastic surgery? If you have not yet considered these, please stop and quietly ask yourself the following questions to see if you are suitable for plastic surgery, and then decide whether you want plastic surgery! Do you want to have plastic surgery? Is plastic surgery right for you? These questions will help you to find out the answer in your mind! Question 1: Why do I need plastic surgery? The healthiest reason for plastic surgery is to improve your self-image, that is, your image in your own mind. People with a strong self-image are usually more confident and are more comfortable at work and socially. Question 2: Am I getting plastic surgery to please myself or others? Plastic surgery should be done for your own sake. If your purpose of plastic surgery is to please others, then the chances of disappointment are higher. Because what you think is most beautiful is not what he or she thinks is best! Question 3: Are my plastic surgery expectations realistic? Having reasonable plastic surgery expectations is perhaps the single most important factor in the success of plastic surgery. Plastic surgery can improve your appearance, but there are limits. Before making a plastic surgery decision, be sure to be honest with your doctor about your goals and expectations and listen to their advice and judgment. Imposing unrealistic requirements can often lead to unexpected “failures”. Question 4: Am I emotionally prepared for plastic surgery? There are certain circumstances that make plastic surgery inappropriate, such as divorce, bereavement, or unemployment. In addition, people in a desperate state of mind, people with mental illnesses, and people who demand perfection are all candidates that plastic surgeons will reject. Question 5: Is this the best time for plastic surgery? Even if you are mentally or emotionally prepared for plastic surgery, there are still some physical conditions that you need to postpone, such as menstruation and pregnancy, or you will face a more difficult recovery period. Question 6: How will I adapt to the change in my body image? It takes some time to adjust to a new body image, especially after a major plastic surgery such as rhinoplasty on the face, whereas injectable plastic surgery does not involve surgery, so the changes brought about after surgery make it relatively easier to adjust. Question 7: Am I prepared for the unexpected results? Plastic surgeons are not gods and cannot guarantee that the results will be 100% satisfactory to you. (I suggest you think twice about doctors who swear by your requirements before surgery.) Unexpected results after plastic surgery are rare, but when they do occur, it will be a shock to both the doctor and the candidate. Therefore, before plastic surgery you’d better consider all possible bad scenarios, figure out if you’re willing to take these risks, and also know that if the results are bad, you should be patient and trusting enough with your plastic surgeon to leave them enough time to help you improve or remedy the situation. Question 8: Does anyone support my plastic surgery? It is important to have the physical and emotional support of others during the plastic surgery recovery period. During the recovery process, you will have bad days and may receive negative comments from family members or friends who do not approve of your plastic surgery. It is good to think about who will always be there for you and who will refuse to provide you with any help. Question 9: Can I afford to pay for plastic surgery? Currently, plastic surgery is mostly not covered by health insurance, so you must make sure you have the financial means to pay for it all. Don’t choose a cheaper clinic for your procedure because of money, remember you get what you pay for. Plastic surgery is not as simple as “just having it done”. Before making a decision on plastic surgery, you must be fully prepared psychologically, physically and financially so that you are not blind and confused. One more thing, if you decide to have plastic surgery, please be sure to choose a regular professional plastic surgeon with experience in plastic surgery. Adequate communication with your professor before surgery is the biggest guarantee of your ideal results after surgery.
