Teen Plastic Surgery
Teens getting plastic surgery have become a popular phenomenon recently. No longer is plastic surgery the realm of wealthy older women, it has actually become a dominion for teenagers with wealthy families and adolescent hang-ups.
The increase in the number of teenagers going for plastic surgery has increased. Dr. Darrick Antell, a top New York City plastic surgeon, admonishes against calling teen plastic surgery a vogue. “One of the primary reasons for the increase is visibility: today’s teenagers are growing up with parents who have taken cosmetic surgery, so they see and hear about it more. The media has also done a good job of making people aware of the procedures available. Another reason is acceptability. In a way, plastic surgery has come out of the closet,” Dr. Antell narrates.
Oftentimes, teenagers who want plastic surgery are aware that this is more than just skin deep. Teenagers desire to change the way they look through plastic surgery to address issues of self-esteem. Plastic surgery doctors are very much aware of the drama affecting the lives of these teenagers and know that these play an critical part in their choice to go with plastic surgery. Thus, most doctors often assess the physical, emotional and psychological maturity of a person before going through with the plastic surgery procedure.
They also acknowledge the fact that doing plastic surgery on a person will not guarantee that it will boost their self esteem. Many doctors have done plastic surgery on models and actresses who still, were very insecure. Physical change is possible, but it will not ensure confidence.
So, for teens who like to go through plastic surgery, it is important to ask yourself what is your end game and what is your aim. Plastic surgery is not the supreme answer to make things better.
