Taming Wild Expectations

For plastic surgeons, it would be quite an annoyance to hear patients babbling about how they would like to have their looks resemble that of Nicole Kidman's or how they would like to get a hold of that full pouty lips like Angelina Jolie's, especially if what surgeons see as of the meantime is a total wreckage. Not that plastic surgeons are mean-hearted and are easily annoyed or something. Dealing with an issue as sensitive and as expensive as plastic surgery, surgeons would surely accommodate patients with the utmost care and kindness they deserve to get.The point that I'm stressing is that plastic surgeons are well aware of the fact that plastic surgery procedures, though are getting more efficient and reliable as time flies, don't make one look like a Hollywood actor or actress in a snap. Unfortunately, some patients aren't aware of this. Media hype must have caused many to believe that plastic surgery can literally transform an ugly duckling into a swan princess.
Let's face it. There is quite a huge difference between what is desirable and what is deliverable. Dr. Valerie Ablaza aired the same sentiment in this news article:
They think it's just an easy snap of your fingers. That's how sometimes it's portrayed on TV that they're ready for a walk down the red carpet in a week after having five different things done, and we're here to tell it like it really is, what the reality is.
Plastic surgeons are facing a dilemma on how to educate clients on setting realistic expectations about the procedures they are about to engage in. While there's nothing wrong about big dreams, patients also need to consider that dreaming about plastic surgeons promising them the moon is close to having a nightmare.Results produced by successful plastic surgery operations are generally satisfactory. Many have lost the excess pounds they had before, through liposuction. And though their physique is still not what their favorite stars currently possess, they are happy with the fact that by having a fresh body to start on, getting that gorgeous and beautifully fit body is not light-years away anymore.
Those who underwent a successful facelift certainly are happy about the riddance of pesky crows feet and forehead lines, despite the fact that their skin might not be as perfect as that of fashion models'.
There's nothing wrong with itching for good looks. Doesn't everybody do that? But going to your surgeon's clinic while bringing a photo of Adriana Lima and asking the poor surgeon to make you look exactly like her is just plainly ridiculous.
Make them the best version of themselves and people come out looking refreshed, relaxed and, and even younger, but not necessarily a different person, unrecognizable to their family and friends.---- Dr. Ablaza
With a good grip of reality, and a board-certified plastic surgeon at hand, every operation surely gives out results that meet expectations.
