If You Don't Like It, Fix It

Not too long ago a good friend of mine told me his daughter was scheduled to have her nose reconstructed. I knew that this had been something that had been bothering her for quite some time. Now, she was in her early twenties and wanted to remove the bump in her nose that she felt detracted from the rest of her features. The plastic surgeon did a wonderful job, keeping the integrity of her nose, while removing the bump which truly did make a difference in her appearance. It wasn't a huge difference, but enough to boost her self esteem. Because of several reality shows that featured make-overs that included plastic surgery, this is no longer considered a luxury item, but a necessity for many who want to fix what they don't like about their features. This includes anything from from rhinoplasty, which is what my friend's daughter had done, to liposuction, breast augmentation, full or partial facelifts or eyelid surgery. Most stars could call any Los Angeles plastic surgeon and be treated like VIPs, but the truth is now anyone can do that. Today, patients don't have to go to institutional-style surgery performed inside a big-box medical facility. All patients from celebrities to every-day people can receive world-class service at competitive prices in an environment that befits plastic surgery's gowing mass appeal. Also, many plastic surgeons offer financing so there's no reason to put something on hold just because of money. Why be unhappy with how you look, when you can fix it if you don't like it?
