Let’s talk about plastic surgery in London Ontario.
According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, almost 2 million cosmetic surgery procedures were performed in the United States in 2016–that’s certainly a lot of people undergoing plastic surgery. Along with these high numbers, we are seeing more public figures speaking out about their plastic surgery experiences, which means the stigma of plastic surgery is diminishing; taking care of one’s appearance is no longer seen as pure, unadulterated vanity–it’s a part of many people’s everyday lives.
It’s out in the open.
In the age of social media influencers and lifestyle bloggers, audiences are demanding more transparency. People are smart. They know that when a celebrity looks 10 years younger than their biological age, it’s not because they drink lots of water and get 8 hours of sleep every night. More than likely, they have a little, or a lot of help from a plastic surgeon. These public figures are setting the aesthetic standards to which many of their fans aspire, and their audience wants to know the truth about how they look their best.
It’s more accessible.
There was a point in time when plastic surgery was the exclusive realm of wealthy individuals. The rules of supply and demand, as well as reduced operating costs have brought fees down considerably. This, along with medical financing, has made opting for plastic surgery accessible to a wider range of patients. With improved safety, recovery and results, there are now more reasons to opt for that surgery than there are to put it off.
People feeling more at ease with the concept of plastic surgery is good news as far as we’re concerned. Our team of plastic surgeons is well versed in the disciplines of both reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, and our experience in both of these realms has shown us how plastic surgery can have a profoundly positive effect on the quality of life and emotional well being of our patients.
