A Fort Lauderdale Plastic Surgeon Busts Surgery Myths

Despite the voluminous amount of information available online, some stubborn myths about plastic surgery still persist. Who better to refute these myths and set the record straight than the best plastic surgeon Ft. Lauderdale has to offer?

Dive in as Palmer Cosmetic Surgery blows the lid off of some common myths about plastic surgery in this article.

Myth #1: Plastic Surgery Always Looks Unnatural

This is one we hear often and frankly, it’s nonsense. The fact is that millions of Americans enjoy the benefits of plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures every year. For every person you see with a seemingly “unnatural” appearance, there are likely a hundred or more who’ve had corrective procedures performed and you’d never know if they didn’t tell you.

The truth is that responsible and ethical plastic surgeons in Ft. Lauderdale and the rest of the U.S. make sure their clients are well-informed before choosing a procedure. Palmer Cosmetic Surgery provides a comprehensive consultation to discuss your goals and how to practically achieve them so you can make an informed decision. Properly performed procedures that follow a sensible treatment plan almost always look fantastic and quite natural.

Myth #2: Only Multi-Millionaires Get Plastic Surgery

Once upon a time, only the ultra-wealthy could afford top-notch plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures. This is no longer the case, however. Even the services of an excellent Ft. Lauderdale plastic surgeon like Dr. Palmer who is board-certified are within reach for many people. You don’t need to be extraordinarily wealthy to enjoy the rewards of rhinoplasty or a facelift or neck lift!

Although we do serve many people who are well-to-do, the majority of our clientele are not wealthy. The benefits of the cosmetic surgery you deserve are likely within reach. We accept all major credit cards and also offer three great medical financing options if you’re looking for a more convenient way to fund your procedure.

Myth #3: Plastic Surgery Is Only For Women

We are honestly surprised that this particular myth has held on as long as it has in some people’s minds. Plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures are for everyone. Absolutely anyone who is interested in a more rejuvenated and youthful appearance should consider plastic surgery as a possibility.

The benefits to your self-esteem can work wonders. We have many, many happy male clients and we often hear from clients of both sexes that looking more youthful makes many of them feel younger and more energized. Why wouldn’t anyone want to look their best?

Myth #4: Non-Invasive Procedures Provide The Same Results

The popularity of non-invasive cosmetic procedures, Botox, and dermal fillers like injectable hyaluronic acid has grown in the past two decades. There are more options for cosmetic procedures than ever before and they are more affordable than in the past. There has never been a better time to have a procedure. That said there are some misconceptions about what non-invasive procedures and dermal fillers can and cannot do.

If you’re looking to simply soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and willing to trade longevity for a faster recovery time, or it’s just not time for a facelift — then products like Dysport are absolutely superb. However, they have limitations. A facelift can deliver much more substantial results for more of your face and the changes will last for years, rather than months. Which procedure is right for you? The best way to discover the answer is to come in for a consultation. Explain your goals and concerns and Palmer Cosmetic Surgery will present you with options.

Myth #5: All Plastic Surgeons Are More or Less The Same

This one probably shocked us the most. When it comes to selecting a Fort Lauderdale plastic surgeon you have absolutely every right to be choosy. Experience matters! Particularly when it comes to plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures. This area of medicine is perhaps more like an art form than any other.

You are trusting someone to refine and enhance the aesthetic of your face or another part of your anatomy. It’s only natural that you would want to choose an exceptionally gifted, board-certified plastic surgeon with decades of experience and a stellar reputation. You deserve excellence and that’s what you will get at Palmer Cosmetic Surgery.
