Cosmetic and plastic surgery is today among the most commonly and successfully performed surgical procedures. People from all walks of life benefit from surgery to improve their appearance. Although most cosmetic surgery patients are women, at least 20 percent of procedures are performed on men. In fact, a "typical" cosmetic surgery patient may not exist! Or patients come from all over the world. They range in age from the early teens to those well beyond 70. Some seek correction of a lifelong deformity. Some wish a subtle improvement of their overall appearance. Others want to enhance their features for greater confidence and self esteem. We work with each to interpret their desires and maximize their improvement.
The decision to proceed with surgery is a very personal one, and should
not be unduly influenced by others, or by dissatisfaction with other
areas of one's life.
