Is the plastic surgeons all the truth?
08.27.2016
According to the International Association of Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS) , the majority of patients who agree to have a plastic surgery, know very little about how this procedure goes and what can be hidden behind it.
The percentage of non-professionals in the market of plastic surgery is higher and higher.
Researchers uncovered 5 things carefully concealed by plastic surgeons:
- Place of study doctor . Since plastic surgery is one of the most profitable medical branches, a large number of doctors wish to engage in this particular field. As a rule, all aesthetic operations are performed by experienced plastic surgeons who have the appropriate education obtained in the best universities. However, today it has been established that operations can be carried out by fraudsters who do not have relevant experience and education. Therefore, experts recommend that each patient be sure to find out the place of training the doctor and internship.
- Strong pain . Most people mistakenly believe that aesthetic operations are practically painless. The majority of patients are told that after the procedure they may experience some minor discomfort, but in fact, patients will have to go through severe pain and a long rehabilitation period.
- Discounts . Today, many plastic clinics offer their patients discounts on various plastic procedures. However, customers should take into account that due to a discount, one procedure can be replaced by another - less gentle and quality.
- The presence of side effects . Since fierce competition is highly developed in the field of plastic surgery, many clinics often offer the latest technology to patients. However, this often leads to many side effects due to the fact that new technologies are not sufficiently investigated.
- Earnings on the mistakes of colleagues . According to one of the famous plastic surgeons in New York, Sam Rizk, many of his rhinoplasty procedures were done to correct the patient's negative effects of the previous operation.
According to statistics, over the past 5 years, the number of repeated plastic surgery to correct errors has increased by 35%.
