1. You have lost a lot of weight.

There are certainly advantages to losing a lot of weight in a short period of time. However, this could cause loose, sagging skin, which is not attractive at all. This becomes evident on the face and abdomen. Eventually, the elasticity of the skin will improve and there will be less excess skin. However, there are times when the excess skin doesn’t seem to go away on its own, so you may need to have surgery. Depending on the size of the skin to be removed, this may require a more advanced cosmetic procedure, so it is important to discuss all possible options with your doctor.

2. The person was involved in an accident.

It is common for people to opt for advanced cosmetic surgery because they have had an accident that has left them scarred or disfigured and would like to return to their former appearance. A cosmetic surgeon can tell you if this can be done. Therefore, if they are thinking about this, they should bring a photo taken before the accident when they come to the consultation and ask if they can return the body to its previous form.

3. People would like instant and longer lasting results.

Initially, the over-the-counter alternatives that were tested worked for quite some time until they stopped working and did not give the same results as in the past. It may not be as effective as before or the results may only last less than half as long as before. In addition to the recovery period, most people who have plastic surgery can see instant results from their cosmetic procedures and these even last for many years. However, they must remember that those who undergo facelifts are still aging. After at least 10 years, they will continue to notice more sagging skin and wrinkles and will again need another procedure to mimic the initial result.

4. There is enough time to recover.

When people undergo a surgical face lift, it is important to keep in mind that they take a long time to recover, as the body needs to rest. After the recovery period, patients will be able to see instant results, but may rest for another 2-3 weeks to fully recover. They should find out from their doctor how long they need to rest for a full recovery and what they are and are not allowed to do during recovery.

5. Almost every anti-aging cream available without a prescription has been tried.

There is a wide range of anti-aging products that can be purchased at the local pharmacy. However, after talking to all the vendors, it has been difficult to find products that can treat facial wrinkles, stretch marks or droopy eyelids and this can become very frustrating. Anyone experiencing this may want to consider plastic surgery.
