Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Facial Bone Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

Plastic surgeons don’t really have a reputation for turning people down when they wish to undergo a procedure. While most people think that this is entirely due to financial reasons, the truth is that most people wish to have very traditional procedures done that are nothing out of the ordinary, which is why they are generally very easy to get. But there are still quite a few cases where the surgeon may express serious concerns towards your plastic surgery choice, to the point where they turn you down and refuse to do the procedure. If you ever find yourself in such a situation, instead of feeling angry towards to doctor, take a moment to think about their reasoning and why someone in the plastic surgery profession would decide that you are better off not having it done.

Is Plastic Surgery Reversible?

Plastic surgery is one of the most popular ways to alter your appearance to something that you will feel comfortable in. It has provided millions of people with a new start and with a much more comfortable life. However, there may be times in a person’s life when they wish to reverse the procedure and go back to their previous look. There are many reasons as to why someone would choose to make this reversal. Although it may in some cases be because they are not happy with the way that the procedure turned out in the long run, it is usually because they wish to make another change, or because they would like to go back to their natural appearance. To the surprise of many people, this is something that many plastic surgery procedures are able to do.

YOU CAN REVERSE ALMOST ANYTHING, BUT NOT TO THE SAME EXTENT

Technically, all plastic surgeries are reversible to a certain extent, or perhaps entirely. It all depends on the complexity of the procedure and how much of your original look was altered. Simple procedures like Korean botox, are entirely reversible because they disappear on their own. This is because it is a procedure that isn’t permanent to begin with, so the botox that was injected in your skin gradually disappears. However, other simple procedures like eyelid surgeries and skin augmentations can also be reversed to a point where they look almost exactly as they did before the surgery. However, unlike botox, these reversals also require another surgery to be done in order to be altered again. And depending on how much the surgeon is required to go back in time, this reversal procedure may be as complex as the original one.

Can You Copy Someone Else’s Plastic Surgery Look?

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

Although you are more than welcome to get your inspiration for your plastic surgery look from anywhere, it should at all times remain an ‘inspiration’, and not a conviction that you would like to copy the exact same look that some else has. There are a number of reasons why this will surely not work out well in the end, but perhaps one of the most important reasons is that you are an individual that cannot be copied by anyone else, and no one else can copy you. Before you even attempt to understand this, take it as a very positive reassurance that you are a unique person, and that whatever you decide that you would like to change about yourself should still only be done in a way that will reflect who you are and not who someone else is.

PLASTIC SURGERY CAN HELP, BUT CANNOT COPY

Regardless of what anyone else tries to tell you, plastic surgery cannot make an exact copy of someone else’s procedure on your body, because they are two completely different bodies. This should go without saying, but some of the many things that affect this are body shape, skin condition, general health and bone structure. Additionally, the way that a plastic surgery procedure heals after it has been done will also be very different among different people, which is another reason why you would never be able to get the same results as someone else. In light of this information, always bear in mind that you should try to adapt every procedure in a way that will best suit your body type. Luckily, this is something that your surgeon will already know and will likely warn you in advance if you describe your ideal procedure as ‘I want to look like this person’.

How to Adjust to Your New Plastic Surgery Look

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

Plastic surgery can be a very fulfilling time in one’s life, a chance that allows you to create a new start for yourself with a new look that erases complexes and increases self-confidence. And while many people will tell you just how much of a positive impact plastic surgery can have on your life, not many people will tell you how to adjust to this new change. What happens when everything is over and healed and you take a first look in the mirror of your new self? Do you know how to react to this change? Are you prepared enough for it to embrace it at that very moment? Not likely. So here are some things that you should take into account after having plastic surgery, and perhaps some valuable advice on how to handle and embrace this new chapter in your life.

ADJUST TO THE NEW FEELINGS

Regardless of how small or big your procedure was, the area of your body that was changed will feel different. There is no denying this. It doesn’t depend on whether the procedure was done by a professional or not but simply by the fact that the part of your body that was changed will now not only look different but will also feel like a new part of your body. This is particularly true for more extreme procedures like breast implants, but is also evident in smaller procedures as well. It may feel tighter, heavier or produce new sensations. This is not a bad thing of course, but it is something that will take a little time to get used to.

Do not try to instantly become comfortable with this new change by buying all new clothes and creating a whole new lifestyle for yourself. You must first become emotionally connected to this now improved part of your body and welcome it as your own. Many professionals suggest that meditation techniques can greatly help with this, but if you don’t want to go as far as serious meditations, just take a few moments every day to calm yourself and to focus all of your attention on this particular area. Focus on how it feels when you move your body slowly, how it feels when you don’t move at all, and how it feels when you run. This may not seem like something that people would be expected to do after plastic surgery, but it will definitely help you to get used to the change in a much shorter period of time. At this point, the way you feel about this new change is actually more important than the way it looks. You need to become physically comfortable with it before you can enjoy it on an aesthetic level. It must become so natural that you eventually reach a point where you no longer remember how you felt before you had this change done.
