Why Do People Have Cosmetic Procedures?

By Alistair Nole


These days, it's more accepted that certain signs of aging are best treated in consultation with a cosmetic surgeon, such as wrinkles or a loss of elasticity in the skin. To get the results that you want, proper treatment will provide the correct course of action to target excessive skin or a loss of collagen in certain parts of the face. In the past ten years, treatment options have grown dramatically and their popularity continues to explode. What motivates people these days to undergo treatments?

Certainly, self esteem is at the heart of many people's decision to seek treatments. Some are looking to improve confidence, decrease self-consciousness. For example, one may see their nose as large or conspicuous. Whether it is or not, if a person believes it to be true, this belief can create the reality and cause discomfort and anxiety. Some people work very hard at diet, exercise, makeup, clothes and so on, to look their best, so it can be quite important to address a problem or flaw that they can improve upon, or an area that they would like to make just a bit better. When this is linked to sexuality, the level of importance goes up a few notches.

A person's sense of improvement in quality of life or work can actually be the end result of a change. This can include things like wearing the type of clothes or bathing suits you want to wear. Or you like going to the beach and would like to feel good about the body that you have. Maybe you have a very public job or deal with the public a lot. These factors all contribute to the decision.

Vanity, which can be closely connected with self esteem, is one of the top motivators. It's only natural to want to regain a lost positive attribute. For example, my lips used to be full but now... , I always had a nice figure but now.... When you lose an attribute on which you had positive reinforcement over the years, it's like losing your identity.

It's also very natural to want to slow down, reverse or turn back the effects of aging that are beginning to appear or have been creeping along for a while. In addition, it's equally normal to want to improve or change a feature that you never liked. Your views may change as you mature -- you might decide that, after years of reflection on a feature, that it is definitely something you would like improved.

Certainly, health reasons are another motivating factor. Many unpleasant postpartum changes to the body that can make any mom depressed. A real, tangible benefit is correcting post-weight loss body changes. Relief of physical factors or symptoms could be needed too. For example, a breast reduction could alleviate chronic recurrent headaches, neck strain, lower back pain, shoulder notching, numbing or tingling in the hands due to nerve stretch-- all of these are associated with mammary hypertrophy--or excessively large, heavy, dense breasts. Almost all of these problems are 100% remedied by a breast reduction procedure.

Dramatic life changes can also be a big motivator. Sometimes people feel like their divorce shows on their face, or that their work or other substantial stresses of life have aged them. For anyone looking to make those changes or small corrections, whatever the reasons, there are clear, safe and affordable options available.
