Cosmetic surgeries have become safer in recent years. More and more Americans are taking advantage of plastic surgery to help them regain confidence by getting their ideal physique. The warmer months are a popular time for these types of procedures, as men and women want to get that ideal beach body in time for summer vacation.
If you're not happy with the look of your body, then cosmetic surgery might be an option to consider. Here are three of the most popular of the summertime cosmetic surgeries:
Liposuction
Liposuction, also known as body contouring, is used primarily to treat lipodystrophy (protruding fatty deposits). Common areas for this type of surgery include abdomen, flanks, saddlebag areas and more. An inconspicuous incision is made where a small, hollow tube is inserted. As the surgeon guides the tube, unwanted fat will be sucked out.
Patients who get this procedure range from teenagers to the elderly, and works best on persons who have a good skin tone, and small excess fat pockets in certain areas. Patients find that it helps sculpt the body, giving back the body its firm, fit look.
Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation or breast implants enlarges the breasts, and commonly takes about one hour to complete. The most common types of implants are saline and silicone, and they are inserted behind the mammary. It's the surgeon's job to help you determine the implants' size, shape and other options.
Augmentation has given back women their self confidence and esteem, while drastically altering their appearance. Women choose this surgery as they are either dissatisfied with the size of their breasts, experiencing shrinking because of pregnancy and/or weight loss, sagging or one breast is larger than the other.
Tummy tuck
A tummy tuck, known formally as abdominoplasty, tucks in the protruding stomach to make the abdomen firmer and flatter. Skin and fat are both removed, and this tightens the stomach muscles. Depending on your specific needs, your doctor should be able to accordingly tailor the surgery.
Patients often include women who have just had a baby, and want their flat stomach back. The best candidates for this type of procedure are the ones who wait until they've dropped all their unwanted weight, as massive weight loss can complicate results.
The results, with the right diet and exercise and no major life chances, will be retained for years to come. Patients often get a boost in confidence after recovery.
Plastic surgery is nothing of which you should be ashamed. Many procedures can boost your confidence, and give you that beach body of which everyone will be envious.
