When you look at your face and body, are there some things you want to change? Maybe you want to look younger or have a smaller body frame. If so, you’re not alone as plastic surgery procedures have continued to be as popular as ever. According to IBISWorld, the plastic surgery industry is expected to grow by 2.5% in 2023 due to all the services available. If you’re interested in getting a nip and tuck or other update, here are some services your local plastic surgeon can offer.
Excessive Skin Removal
If you’ve recently lost a great deal of weight, you should congratulate yourself. After all, obesity is still a major problem in America and worldwide. One of the side effects of losing a drastic amount of weight is the excessive skin it may leave behind. Unfortunately, when the skin has stretched further than normal, you can’t always just get rid of it with exercise. Therefore, you may have lost a few hundred pounds of fat but still have double-digit pounds of extra skin in various areas. If that excessive skin is stopping you from achieving the look you want and revealing the true amount of weight you’ve lost, a plastic surgeon can help you.
Breast Augmentation
Many women often want to highlight their breasts. People go to a plastic surgeon to increase the size or enhance the shape and fullness of their breasts. Even if a woman has a large breast size, she may want to do a breast lift or enhance the shape, especially after childbirth or with age. In some cases, a woman may have excessively large breasts that can impact her health by causing extreme back pain. Luckily, a plastic surgeon can also perform a breast reduction.
Eyelid Surgery
In addition to one’s smile, the eyes are often a standout feature on one’s face. Some people may be extra cautious about excessive fat or fold over their eyelids. Eyelid surgery often involves the removal of excess skin or fat. If you have puffiness or sagging, eyelid surgery is also helpful to reduce that appearance.
Rhinoplasty
Are you subconscious about the size or shape of your nose? Does your nose have a hook that you don’t like seeing from a profile view? If so, you can see your local plastic surgeon for a rhinoplasty, or what’s commonly known as a nose job. This procedure can also help your health, especially if you have breathing problems related to the shape of your nose.
Facelift
Have you begun to show signs of aging? Has the skin around your jaws or eyes begin to sag? With a facelift, you’ll lose years off your face since the procedure tightens and lifts the skin. If your plastic surgeon does a facelift, they can also tighten the skin on the neck, as it can also show signs of aging.
Liposuction
Are you tired of spending hours at the gym and still walking away with the same soft spots that won’t go away? The reality is that people have different body types, and fat can be very stubborn in certain areas. If you want to sculpt the ideal body, liposuction may be an ideal way to get rid of excessive fat from your neck, thighs, arms, and abdomen.
Tummy Tuck
Maybe you are in relatively good shape, but your midsection isn’t shaping up like you want it to. After childbirth or weight loss, you may have excessive skin or fat in your abdomen, especially the lower part. A plastic surgeon can perform a tummy tuck, which will remove that stretched skin or fat so that you have a flatter, firmer stomach that you can show off.
As you can see, there are many ways a trained local plastic surgeon can help you. Even with healthy eating and working out, you may still need some professional cosmetic help to achieve the look you want. Whether you want a nose job, a flatter stomach, to get rid of lines and wrinkles, or to remove excess skin after weight loss, your local plastic surgery professional can help you.
