Each year there are more than 12 million cosmetic surgery operations carried out in the US, representing a 50 per cent increase in procedures over the last decade. Cosmetic surgery is also increasing in frequency in other parts of the world, such as in Europe and in Asia. The most common operations are boob jobs (breast augmentations), tummy tucks (abdominoplasties), liposuction, nasal and eyelid procedures.
The most common plastic surgery procedure is the boob job,christian louboutin uk sale, or breast augmentation. In these operations the size or shape of the breasts can be altered by means of saline filled or silicone gel filled implants. Silicone implants have in the past caused considerable amounts of controversy, especially in North America, but new designs have emerged, and extensive research has been carried out into complications and side-effects.
Other breast operations include breast reductions (reduction mammoplasty) and breast lifts (mastopexy),christian louboutin uk sale. In reduction operations breast tissue, fat and skin are removed from the breasts. This can help with physical and psychological problems faced by women with large breasts,louboutin heels. Physical problems may include back, neck and shoulder pain, and psychological problems, such as depression/anxiety may be experienced by many on account of unwanted male attention, and unpleasant comments and even bullying by other females.
Breast lifts (mastopexy) can be done to alter the shape of the breasts. This is often done to make them less saggy, for example after pregnancy. In mastopexy procedures skin is removed, but no breast tissue or fat tissue is removed.
Liposuction procedures remove fat from the body,louboutin sneakers, commonly from sites such as thighs, abdomen and buttocks. Many factors control how much fat may be safely and sensibly removed. For example removing too much fat from one place can leave the skin with a dented or lumpy appearance. As the places from which fat is removed can be controlled by the surgeon, there is often a disproportionate improvement in appearance (compared to the actual weight loss).
Liposuction cannot really be considered as an alternative to sensible eating and exercise, but it can help remove the last 10 or so pounds which might be hard to shift after completion of a diet/exercise program. Major surgery is risky for the overweight, and removal of large amounts of fat by liposuction is potentially life-threatening.
Many of those who seek cosmetic surgery are suffering from forms of psychological distress because of their appearance. Studies show that women having breast augmentations have higher rates of various mental illnesses than the general population. This ranges from low levels of self esteem, to more serious medical conditions, including depressive illness and histories of attempted suicide.
Surveys carried out after the procedure showed that most patients reported improvements to their mental health and quality of life. These improvements included increased self confidence and self esteem. Although not all the health improvements continued in the longer term, most patients remained satisfied with the results of the operation. Doctors and researchers are however aware that some patients suffer from a so-called plastic surgery obsession, or body dismorphic disorder, and they can allow their obsession with altering their appearance to dominate their lives.
