Two words: Plastic surgery. What do you think of it?
Implants, augmentation, reduction, liposuction … it’s interesting. People
should do whatever makes them feel beautiful, but I do feel that there’s a line
that shouldn’t be crossed. In this particular post, I’ll be focusing on face
lifts.
A face
lift is done by making an incision in front of the ear, and cutting underneath
the first layer of skin so that it’s able to be lifted up. The skin is then
pulled back towards the ears, tightening the skin on the cheekbones and jaw.
This is usually for people who want to look younger, and their face is starting
to sag.
In the
video, notice all the markings the doctor is making on the woman’s face. This
is so they can know exactly where to cut so that no mistakes are made. Part of
her head is shaved for easier cutting.
The
doctor takes his instruments and repeatedly slides it underneath the skin. This
is to make sure all the tendons and tissue still connected to her cheek is
separated from the layer of skin he’s working with.
He then
scrapes/cuts the fat off of the inner layer of her cheek. This is a simpler
form of liposuction. After he does that, he pulls the skin tightly back to her
ears and sutures her up.
A
facelift is simply making someone look younger. It’s not like they’re changing
what their face looks like- they’re going back in time to what they used to
look like. However, I still don’t agree
with plastic surgery. It’s natural for the human body to age, and a beautiful process
like that shouldn’t be played with. But some people age quicker than others,
and I can understand how it would be frustrating for a forty year old to look
sixty.
Now as
for breast implants… this surgery is not only stupid (in my opinion), it’s
risky. There’s risk of infection, a reaction to the implants, and the implants
not working out well. A breast reduction I understand, because too big of
breasts can be painful and difficult with everyday life. But IMPLANTS… Everyone woman is born beautiful. The size of
a woman’s breasts shouldn’t determine how beautiful she is. Anyway, the point
is, plastic surgery is a strange thing. Yet very common.
