Cosmetic surgery: What you should know?

Cosmetic surgery

Cosmetic surgery is becoming increasingly popular, with 15.1 million cosmetic treatments performed in the United States in 2013, a 3% rise over the previous year.

Procedures for practically every region of the body are accessible, but the decision to undertake cosmetic surgery should not be made lightly. Because the effects are typically lasting, it is critical to be certain about the decision, to work with a suitable practitioner, and to be motivated.

A surgeon may recommend a patient for counseling prior to surgery if they suspect there is an underlying problem that surgery will not fix, or if the patient exhibits symptoms of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).

BDD can lead to a person believing that something is gravely wrong with their looks, even though objective evidence says otherwise.
Another sort of plastic surgery is reconstructive surgery. It tries to restore function and offer a normal look to a damaged section of a person's body, such as after a mastectomy. This article will exclusively cover aesthetic surgery.

Liposuction

Liposuction, also known as suction-assisted lipectomy, vacuums fat from different regions of the body, most often the belly, thighs, buttocks, hips, backs of the arms, and neck. Liposuction can also be done to reduce masculine breasts.
Liposuction tools include conventional, ultrasonic, mechanical, and laser equipment. They all entail the suction of fat through a tube.
To avoid difficulties, the quantity of fat that the surgeon can safely remove is limited, depending on whether the patient will be discharged immediately or admitted to the hospital.
