Plastic surgery is meant to uplift, renew, and beautify. It is intended to help men and women feel better about themselves as they seek to improve their self-confidence and change what is making them unhappy or even unhealthy. So, why is there a stigma associated with plastic surgery? If you want a tummy tuck or breast augmentation, why is plastic surgery considered taboo?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viewpoints of Society<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An article<\/a> in ELLE magazine discusses this very matter. The author describes how she received a breast reduction because she \u201cdidn’t like the proportions my body took on when accompanied by my very large 34Ds.\u201d But she soon discovered that those she told would justify her decision to undergo surgery by saying it must have been for \u201chealth reasons\u201d.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She writes: \u201cSometimes I agree with them. Not because they are right, but because it’s not worth it. They’ve already decided that I have not committed the unforgivable sin of surgically altering my body for purely aesthetic reasons. That is for the vain. That is for the shallow. And I am not vain and shallow. The truth is, it was<\/em> for aesthetic reasons.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering Breast Augmentation?<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Such backlash would naturally make a person reconsider revealing their choice to have plastic surgery. All too often, Dr. Steven Ringler finds his patients want plastic surgery, such as a breast augmentation, but are concerned about what others will think. The author further points out that society needs to \u201cexpand what it means to be beautiful without condemning such choices altogether.\u201d The article states: \u201cThis isn’t about \u2018I choose my choice\u2019 feminism so much as it’s the idea that real liberation for women must include the possibility that not every individual decision should be weighed against what it means for the collective. Because, sometimes, a face lift really is just a face lift.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If You Want a <\/strong>Tummy Tuck<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Want to change the size and appearance of your chest with breast implants? Then go for it! Want to flatten your abdomen and redefine your waistline? Check out what a tummy tuck can do for you! Dr. Ringler takes the time to have open and honest conversations with his patients, ensuring they feel educated and confident in their choice to receive plastic surgery. While setting aside the opinions of others can be difficult, as the ELLE author points out, \u201cWe are more than capable of searching for internal truths with lipstick on, being feminists with face lifts, or choosing something a little fake while also being very real.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
