Going after the best plastic surgery

Imagine the ideal scenario. Money is no problem, so you decide to indulge yourself, and go for that best plastic surgery you have been fantasizing about ever since you left adolescence. You might want to think twice.

Do not fool yourself, as any other human industry, plastic surgery is a profit seeking activity, and there is nothing wrong with it. But the question arises when certain facts are disguised, so as to entice you to “buy” their products, no question asked.

When it comes to making up your mind to undergo a plastic surgery, the wisest thing to do is to make a clear distinction between your role as a customer and your role as a patient. This is like marriage. The moment you say “I do”, you make a commitment, and your role as a bride ceases to become a wife. When you agree to undergo a surgery, you have already bought, so, you cease to be a customer, and you become a patient. This distinction is relevant, because as a patient, you yield you power, the dominant position you had when you were a customer. As a customer, they had to convince you to buy, but as a patient, you need to do what your doctor tells you.

When you are still at the customer’s phase, you have to take advantage of this, and inform yourself. It is the moment to have a cold mind, and to ponder over every aspect involved thoroughly. Exercise your right to choose. For instance, a particular doctor may strongly advise certain type of surgery, only because he is very skilled at it, or he feels more comfortable performing it, not because it is the best plastic surgery for you.
