BE EMOTIONALLY AND
MENTALLY PREPARED
As you age, the cosmetic surgeries
you have had will become much more
noticeable. This is common with people
who have used Botox and have had breast
augmentations. These procedures can
look strange on people in their sixties. Are
you going to be able to gracefully age after
having the procedure in question done?
Do not schedule having cosmetic surgery
during an emotional stage in your life.
Recovering from a surgery takes some
energy and you need to think clearly before
making your decision. Slow recoveries can
affect your emotions negatively.

POST-SURGERY RECOVERY IS CRUCIAL
Understanding how long your
recovery will be is crucial to understanding
the procedure. This period is very important
in determining your ultimate results, and
therefore the doctor’s suggestions must
be heeded completely. The first couple of
weeks are the most important.

THOROUGHLY SCOUT FOR PHYSICIANS
You should always look for a
professional when it comes to cosmetic
surgery. The doctor should not only
have experience in cosmetic surgery in
general, but also an in-depth knowledge
of the type of procedure you are
thinking of having. Do not be afraid to
go with another surgeon if you need to!
Research to find out how many
procedures any physician has done,
and talk to them directly about it, too.
Make sure that your laser surgeon is
a licensed doctor who is certified to
perform the surgery you are interested
in. You need to make sure your particular
physician is licensed to use the laser.
Look at before and after photographs of
work your surgeon has done. That way,
you can see how talented the doctor is
by seeing outcomes immediately after a
procedure and then several months down
the road. This way, you will know what you
can expect down the road.
