Because divorce is such an ego deflator, plastic surgery for either the husband or wife becomes de riguer. Like marriage, plastic surgery promises a lot more than science can deliver, hence the theme song to this page, "Mission Impossible". Above all, you must seek the guidance of a proper doctor. Even minor procedures can become life threatening, or result in hideous deformities. Don't look in the yellow pages, get second opinions from board certified physicians with proven experience in aesthetic surgery. Be prepared for irreversible disfigurement, or at best a painful excursion to nowhere. If you call me, I can certainly give you some credible referrals from around the country.
Today they have plastic surgeon consultants who can tell you if plastic surgery can help, and get a fee from you and maybe the doctor. With everyone profiting but you, this does not seem practical. We have some super plastic surgeons as clients, who like me, won't unwrap their scalpel unless they know they can help. All in all, medicine right now is in the throws of a massive income deflation. Everyone is being blamed, Hillary Clinton, the HMO's, insurance companies, and today's physician is concerned primarily with making money. Don't look for miracles, scalpels are not a magic wand. Get plenty of estimates, get many opinions. Ask the doctor for credentials, see examples of his work. Ask if they give any guarantees. Don't use price comparisons, they are ridiculous. Price does not equate with competence. Medicine is a business, doctors have expenses. Don't forget that. Sometimes a doctor will give you terms, and as long as he can get his out of pocket expenses, ask him for some no interest terms for the balance. If there's something about your features that you absolutely abhor, then by all means, do something about it. Most honest surgeons will quickly advise you that your self-image needs to be worked on, and that you need to find that within yourself. Of course, going out with a good-looking gal can go a long way to make you feel good. For the ladies, in our society, plastic surgery is absolutely de rigeur. The breast augmentation has changed the face of America. It can absolutely change your life. Recently I saw Jodie Foster gave in and got hers done. Plastic surgery can drastically change how you perceive yourself in this world. However, the people that truly care for you don't care what you look like, remember that. They are probably more concerned with the watch you wear.
