Motivation for Cosmetic Procedures

By Alistair Nole


These days, it's more accepted that certain signs of aging are best treated in consultation with a cosmetic surgeon, such as wrinkles or a loss of elasticity in the skin. To get the results that you want, proper treatment will provide the correct course of action to target excessive skin or a loss of collagen in certain parts of the face. In the past ten years, there has been dramatic growth in the number of treatment options available, and they are becoming even more popular. What motivates people these days to undergo treatments?

One factor at the heart of many people's decision to seek treatments is their self esteem. A confidence boost and less self-consciousness are what some look for. For example, one may see their nose as large or conspicuous. Whether true or not, if one believes this to be true, the perception can create the reality and cause discomfort and anxiety. For some who work very hard through diet, exercise, makeup, clothes, etc, to look their best, a problem or flaw that they can improve upon, or an area that they would like to make just a bit better can be quite important. When this is linked to sexuality, the level of importance goes up a few notches.

A person's sense of improvement in quality of life or work can actually be the end result of a change. Wearing the type of clothes or bathing suits you want to wear can be included in this. Or, going to the beach is enjoyable for you, and you want to feel good about your body. Maybe you have a very public job or deal with the public a lot. These factors all contribute to the decision.

Closely connected with self esteem, vanity is one of the top motivators. It's only natural to want to regain a lost positive attribute. For example, my lips used to be full but now... , my figure was always nice but now.... Having good positive reinforcement over the years and losing that attribute can be like losing one's self-identity.

It's also very natural to want to slow down, reverse or turn back the effects of aging that are beginning to appear or have been creeping along for a while. In addition, it's equally normal to want to improve or change a feature that you never liked. Your views may change as you mature -- you might decide that, after years of reflection on a feature, that it is definitely something you would like improved.

Health reasons are definitely a motivator. Many unpleasant postpartum changes to the body that can make any mom depressed. It could also be necessary to relieve physical factors or symptoms, as well as the real tangible benefit that comes with correcting post-weight loss body changes. For example, a breast reduction could alleviate chronic recurrent headaches, neck strain, lower back pain, shoulder notching, numbing or tingling in the hands due to nerve stretch-- all of these are associated with mammary hypertrophy--or excessively large, heavy, dense breasts. Almost all of these problems are 100% remedied by a breast reduction procedure.

Dramatic life changes can also be a big motivator. People may feel like they are wearing their divorce on their face or that their job, or some other significant life stress has aged them. For anyone looking to make those changes or small corrections, whatever the reasons, there are clear, safe and affordable options available.
