Does how you look affect how you feel? It certainly can. Every one of us has experienced the benefits of feeling good about the way we look at a moment in time\u2014the confidence, self-assurance, and happiness it can elicit. We\u2019ve all also likely experienced those moments where the opposite is true: you don\u2019t feel good; you don\u2019t think you look particularly good; your whole demeanor is different (and not in a good way).<\/p>\n

It's true: Our appearance affects us emotionally. It\u2019s one of the primary reasons we emphasize fashion, clothing, hair and makeup\u2014all of these can help to maximize positive self-image and project confidence. So why do some still struggle to accept the role plastic surgery plays? Is it really any different?<\/p>\n

Some believe plastic surgery is simply \u201csuperficial.\u201d Manufacturing youth and beauty isn\u2019t natural. It is vanity at its apex. You\u2019ve cheated the natural aging process. And on top of it all, it looks fake and everyone knows it.<\/p>\n

This couldn\u2019t be farther from the truth. Plastic surgery does not exist in this narrow, black and white space. At Naples Aesthetic Institute Boutique Surgery and Skin Spa<\/strong><\/a>, for example, we don\u2019t turn out manufactured Barbie and Ken dolls. It\u2019s the mom of 2 who\u2019s reminded every time she gets dressed or undressed that she\u2019s lost more than just her time and sanity since having children and wants her body back (breast lift\/augmentation\/tummy tuck). It\u2019s the woman with back pain from her very large, natural breasts (breast reduction\/lift). It\u2019s the person who spent way too much time in the sun 3 decades ago who wants a second chance at healthy skin (laser resurfacing\/chemical peel\/lift).<\/p>\n

\"\"Photo Credit: Shutterstock<\/span>As an all-female team with a keen understanding and sensibility for our patients, we take an intuitive approach to delivering natural\u2014and many times very meaningful\u2014results\u00a0using a combination of plastic surgery and non-invasive skincare treatments<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Any plastic surgeon with the right training should individualize these procedures to each person\u2019s body proportions, overall facial structure, and personal preferences. No one else\u2019s. Results are natural and become another tool in the toolbox for positive self-image and confidence.<\/p>\n

And despite the fact that society has conditioned us to believe we should accept aging (with grace), value wisdom over beauty, and rise above external appearance, and value substance, the truth is the majority of us aren\u2019t looking for perfection; we\u2019re just looking to feel a little bit better and project more confidence. These are not desires without reason. I don\u2019t call that vanity. I\u2014as do many of us\u2014call that self care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
