Plastic Surgery Makes You Look 7 Years Younger, On Average

Cosmetc and Plastic Surgery Procedures Add Youth

A recent study conducted by the University of Toronto gathered medical students and asked them to assess 60 volunteers between the ages of 45-72, and were asked to approximate their ages based on the patient’s pictures before and after the surgery was performed. The research entitled “Perceived Age Change after Aesthetic Facial Surgical Procedures” concluded that patients looked an average of 7.2 years younger after cosmetic or plastic surgery. The lead author of the study, Dr. Nitin Chauhan, said that this study could be used by plastic surgeons all over the world to educate patients about the kind of results that they could possibly see after the procedure has been performed.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall..This is NOT what I ordered...AT ALL!

“The best laid plans of mice and men”?… An unfortunate fact of life is that not everything goes exactly as it should. Or, maybe it goes ‘as it should’…but, not how WE want it too. You were so excited to redesign your nose, and have rhinoplasty surgery. But, when the bandages were removed – you didn’t like what you saw? Are you thinking, “I loved the cheek implants the surgeon gave me last Spring – why don’t I like my new nose?” It turns out the surgeon is THE BEST at implants, but you failed to find out that this is only their 4th nose surgery. Uh Oh…what to do? That is when a ‘Revision Plastic Surgeon’ takes over. Their skill is ‘fixing what others broke’ and making it look better than ever. If a surgeon does not do a good job the first time – sometimes it’s better to start fresh with an expert in revision. They have the technology…let them “make it better”.
