I had breast augmentation 10 days ago and I am very happy with the results – they look very natural and it is only less than 2 weeks post-procedure!
I was recommended to consult with Dr. Bashioum by a friend and I am glad that she made the suggestion. Thank you, Dr. Bashioum and to your wonderful staff for all of the great work that you do.
Does Being Attractive Matter? Part 2
April 19th, 2011
Recap Part 1: Many of my patients describe concerns about specific facial features seeming out of sync, but they are not quite sure why. Asymmetry is often the cause of feeling unattractive, but sometimes patients are just bothered by changes due to aging. General attractiveness concerns that top this list include crooked noses, droopy jowls and baggy eyes.
During consultation, patients may also report feelings of diminished self-esteem, often related to their perceptions of their own attractiveness. Cosmetic surgery is very effective in correcting physical problems. By making outward changes, we can often see a positive change in a patient’s attitude toward their self-image. This attitude shift is common with both my female and male patients alike. While cosmetic surgery is certainly not the answer in every case of low self-esteem, I am pleased that many of my patients express feeling better about themselves, following surgery. Some of my patients have contributed blog posts to share their personal reflections about surgery and can be found in Patient Comments.
