Why Do People Get Plastic Surgery?

January 14, 2020 by Jarred

Though there has historically been some preconceived notions against getting plastic surgery, the numbers make it clear that society as a whole is becoming more accepting of this practice. Cosmetic surgery procedures are on the rise as more people inquire about labiaplasty, tummy tucks, nose reshaping, and other procedures. There are several reasons why these procedures are on the rise — each of which can contribute to an individual’s decision to get plastic surgery.

Enhance Self-Confidence

Surveys have generally found that the top reason that people undergo plastic surgery is to improve their self-esteem or self-confidence. All of us have a desire to look our best, but when our body doesn’t match our expectations — even after following good diet and exercise habits — it can be frustrating. Some people even get depressed when their body doesn’t look they way they’d like it to. This is especially prevalent in the social-media age, when we see countless pictures documenting how we look during everyday activities. These frequent reminders of our physical appearance can make the desire to look better even stronger.

Address Other Health Issues

Plastic surgery is not merely cosmetic. In many instances, procedures can also help address other health issues that create problems in day to day life. For example, breast reduction surgery can help some women avoid back or disc injuries. Plastic surgery to remove excess skin resulting from extreme weight loss (either through surgery or other methods) can help prevent infections and rashes.

The self-confidence and self-esteem issues behind plastic surgery can also contribute to anxiety and depression. A plastic surgery procedure that eliminates the cause of these negative feelings can greatly improve an individual’s mental health.

Improved Technology & Affordability

Another reason why more people are getting plastic surgery is because it is safer and more affordable than ever before. Nonsurgical treatments (like lasers) are increasingly available for many procedures. More advanced instruments and medication reduce the risk of injury or infections, while also minimizing scarring from invasive surgeries. As technology has improved, prices have come down, increasing accessibility. Financing options also make these procedures more affordable, further eliminating cost barriers.

New Year, New You

At the end of the day, all of us want to show our “best self” to the world. While this doesn’t require plastic surgery for everyone, some may find these procedures necessary to have confidence in their own skin. If you are interested in such procedures, reach out to a qualified plastic surgeon who can help you understand whether they are the right fit for your situation.
