Nowadays, cosmetic plastic surgery has become a common way to pursue beauty. However, in the market, there is a dazzling variety of procedures that call themselves plastic and cosmetic surgeries.
So, what exactly is the difference between these surgeries? What is the truth between them? This article will dissect this.
1. Purely cosmetic surgery
Purely cosmetic surgery refers to the surgical alteration of a certain part of the body for aesthetic purposes, such as rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, face slimming, etc.
This type of surgery is mainly performed in beauty salons or plastic surgery hospitals, and is performed by professional plastic surgeons. The goal of surgery is to change one's appearance and improve one's image.
2. Plastic surgery
Plastic surgery refers to the surgical alteration of a part of the body to repair functional or cosmetic defects, such as correcting congenital malformations, repairing scars after surgery, etc.
This surgery is usually performed by a specialized plastic surgeon in the operating room of a hospital. The goal of surgery is to restore function or improve appearance.
Although there are many kinds of cosmetic plastic surgery in the market, they all have some common truths.
1. Surgical risks
Any surgery comes with certain risks, and cosmetic plastic surgery is no exception. Infection, bleeding, and unsatisfactory surgery can occur. Therefore, when choosing surgery, it is important to choose a regular hospital and a qualified doctor to ensure the safety and satisfaction of the surgery.
2. Postoperative recovery period
After cosmetic plastic surgery, there is a certain amount of recovery period. During this period, patients need to follow the doctor's instructions, pay attention to rest and diet, and avoid strenuous exercise to ensure that the wound can heal well and the postoperative results will be more satisfactory.
3. The results may not be as expected
Although cosmetic plastic surgery can change the appearance and enhance the appearance of the individual, the results of the surgery may not be the same as the individual expects.
Because everyone's physical condition and healing ability are different, the post-operative results will also vary. Before undergoing surgery, it's important to be clear about your expectations and talk to your doctor.
In my personal experience, I once underwent a cosmetic plastic surgery. At the time, I was unhappy with my nose and wanted to have surgery to change its shape. I chose a reputable plastic surgery hospital, and after communicating with the doctor, I decided to have rhinoplasty.
During the surgery, the doctor gave me a full understanding and explanation, telling me about the risks of the surgery and the recovery period after the surgery. The surgery went very smoothly, the recovery period after the surgery was carried out according to the doctor's instructions, and my nose was successfully made more beautiful.
However, I also realized that the results of the surgery might not be as expected. Although the nose after surgery was in line with my previous expectations, there were some areas where the results were not perfect due to the individual's physical condition and healing ability. Despite this, I am still happy with the results of the surgery as it has improved my appearance and boosted my self-confidence.
Through my knowledge and personal experience of cosmetic plastic surgery, I believe that there are several aspects that need special attention when choosing a surgery.
First of all, it is very important to choose a regular hospital and a qualified doctor. Only with their expertise and experience can they ensure the safety and effectiveness of the procedure.
Second, be clear about your expectations before surgery. Communicate well with your doctor so that they understand your needs and expectations so that they can give you the most appropriate advice and surgical plan.
Finally, have a rational mindset and correct expectations. Although cosmetic plastic surgery can improve one's appearance and enhance one's image, the results may not match one's expectations.
It is necessary to maintain a rational understanding of the results of the surgery and not blindly pursue perfection to avoid unnecessary disappointment.
In conclusion, there are many self-proclaimed plastic and cosmetic surgeries on the market, but the differences and truths between them cannot be ignored. When choosing surgery, it is important to think carefully and choose a regular hospital and a qualified doctor.
At the same time, it is necessary to maintain a rational understanding of the results of the surgery and not blindly pursue perfection. Only in this way can we better enjoy the beauty and confidence that comes with cosmetic plastic surgery.
