It is very rare for a person to be completely satisfied with every aspect of their appearance. The fact is that most of us, regardless of how others see us, would like to improve some facial feature or body contour. Cosmetic surgery is more popular today than ever before in Texas. The stigma that was once placed on the individual who had “some work done” has mostly vanished. Even men are undergoing cosmetic surgery at higher rates than in recent years due to this loss of stigma.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a type of cosmetic procedure involving the removal of fat from areas of the body where it is not wanted. It is performed for purely cosmetic reasons. It is not intended as a replacement for a healthy diet and regular exercise. It is for those with excess fat deposits that do not respond to patient intervention.
Today’s liposuction procedures are much safer than ever before because of medical advances. How long you will need for your recovery time depends upon the amount of fat that was removed during your liposuction procedure.
Rhinoplasty
Commonly known as a “nose job”, the rhinoplasty procedure is surgery to alter the structure of the nose for cosmetic reasons or functional reasons. The patient may be unhappy with the appearance of their nose, or they may have some type of obstruction that prevents them from breathing normally. Rhinoplasty may be combined with other cosmetic surgery procedures, depending on the situation.
Facelift
A facelift may be the type of cosmetic surgery procedure that you first think of when hearing the phrase. It is used in Texas when the patient has excess sagging skin and wrinkles on the face and jowls.
