TheThings Celebrity Women and You Need to Know About Breast
Implants and Augmentation
Fame very often has a high price to pay not commonly known by
the public.
The price celebrities pay is not so much a financial one, as
they fight to compete with age and imperfections in a beauty
based market. Cosmetic procedures run rampant in cities full of
the rich and famous such as Los Angeles and Miami. Breast
augmentation is one of the most popular procedures in this area.
However, both celebrities and the everyday woman can do a lot to
minimize the risks, and therefore ensure you get the best
results. The steps you take are the same, be you a celebrity or
not.
The main thing to emphasize is that you should do a lot of
research before getting any operation done, and a Breast
Augmentation is no exception. You should especially check out
the credentials of your doctor. Cosmetic and reconstructive
surgery is not something you want to bargain shop for. Make sure
that your physician is a board certified plastic surgeon. There
is a web site that you can visit Board Certified Plastic
Surgeons Referral Association at www.bcpsra.com to make an
informed choice on a plastic surgeon.
Fortunately, the Internet is full of information about all forms
of Breast Surgery, so time spent researching the subject by some
well targetted surfing is definitely time well spent.
Just on the subject of Breast Implants alone, you could spent
many hours reading the information that is available. It is only
when you start looking that you realise just how many decisions
need to be made before deciding on which implant and positioning
will be right for you.
The many options that are open to you cover choices such as:
1. Implant positioning (above or below the chest muscle). 2.
Implant incision (breast crease, nipple, armpit, navel) 3.
Implant type (saline or silicone) 4. Implant surface (smooth or
textured) 5. Implant shape (round or shaped) 6. Implant profile
(high, moderate or low) 7. Implant size and volume (probably the
most controversial decision!)
It is important that you get all of these right in the first
place if you do not want to find yourself with breasts that you
are not happy with, and then start thinking about a subsequent
operation to get it right (as so often seems to happen to
celebrities).
A good surgeon will help you to make the right decision, but at
the end of the day it is not the surgeon that must live with the
results, it is YOU, so it is important to get it right!
Therefore do not just sit back and let someone else make the
decisions for you. Understand what is available and the
implications of chosing a particular implant.
Do not be misled by what others think. You are doing this for
yourself alone, so make the right decision that you know you
will be comfortable with. Many people look down on cosmetic
surgery, but few people realize how much it can help a person's
state of mind. When people are more confident about themselves
they are more confident in life, and cosmetic and reconstructive
surgery helps this happen.
Around 90% of women are unhappy with their uppermost statistic.
So if an opportunity arises for you to change it for the better
- what are you waiting for?
