Guest Post: Plastic Surgery Misconceptions

We are a celebrity and vanity fuelled society but did you know not all plastic surgery is about being vain? It can be as you will read below, about taking corrective or necessary measures that can benefit ones life.

One common misconception of breast augmentation surgery is that it only applies to enlargement procedures. This is largely because society seems only to notice when someone makes her breasts larger, but not when smaller or less obvious changes are made. However, as you will see if you do a bit of research at relevant websites such as aboutplasticsurgery.com, there are actually multiple types of breast augmentation surgery, each of which serves a different purpose entirely.

Strangely enough to people unfamiliar with the topic, another common type of augmentation surgery is actually used for breast reduction. The fact is, many women who have naturally large breasts find them cumbersome and uncomfortable; in fact, a large number of these women actually experience back problems as a result of the weight of their breasts. For some of these women, breast augmentation is a very appealing solution, as doctors can actually reduce the size of the breasts without negatively affecting their shape or feel.

This type of surgery is also used quite frequently in a reconstructive context. For example, many women who go through battles with breast cancer are forced, at some point during the fight, to give up one or both of their breasts. The augmentation surgery allows such women to have their breasts “rebuilt” in a sense, as surgeons can now essentially reconstruct the breasts more or less exactly as they existed before the cancer. You can imagine how big a part of the physical and emotional recovery process this can be for some women.

If you are considering any of these different procedures, you can do much more extensive online to help you decide what exactly you want and to help you pick a doctor. The purpose of this article is simply to better inform those who do not realize the full capabilities of breast augmentation surgeries. While these medical procedures can indeed be used for enlargement purposes, their potential benefits extend much further.
