Plastic Surgery Myths

Conveniently located to serve San Antonio and surrounding communities.

Let’s talk about some plastic surgery myths and facts! The American Society of Plastic Surgeons sheds light on the four most common myths below:

  1. Plastic surgery patients are the rich and famous. We often think that plastic surgery is out of reach if we’re not wealthy. However, that is not the case. Most plastic surgeons offer their patients payment plans based on their income. Do not let price deter you – if you’re interested in a procedure, set up an appointment and find out how it works.
  2. Plastic surgery is all about beauty and vanity. Plastic surgery is not just for aesthetic purposes, surgeons care about the overall functionality and results as a whole. Surgeons want to ensure that the patient’s body and mind benefit from the surgery, before they conduct the procedure – hence the reason for consultation visits. If the surgeon does not feel that the patient should undergo the procedure, the surgeon will offer alternatives or refer the patient elsewhere.
  3. Only women get plastic surgery. Although women are the majority of plastic surgery patients, men undergo more non-invasive procedures, such as Xeomin and dermal fillers.
  4. Plastic surgery leaves no scars and lasts forever. Plastic surgeons can reduce the appearance of scars after plastic surgery procedures, but some type of scarring is common after a procedure. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, “Plastic surgery procedures are long-lasting and can give you years, if not decades of personal satisfaction, many factors determine how long the results will last. Plastic surgery can turn back the hands of time, but the clock keeps on ticking. Great skin care, less-invasive office procedures, surgical touch-ups, and your overall health are all important to maintain your natural good looks.”

Don’t believe everything you hear or everything you read on the Internet. Well, you can believe this post, but just remember that many myths are being thrown around about plastic surgery that are not true. Just do your research to make sure you’re in the know.
