Facial Aesthetic Surgery: Why?

Your face projects an image to others about who you are, how you feel, and how you think. It is the most prominent part of your body language. Just as a great work of art eventually shows signs of wear and tear, so do our facial features undergo gradual changes. These changes can give others a false impression of who you really are, how you really feel inside. Most persons seeking rejuvenating facial aesthetic surgery do so because they feel that their appearance no longer matches how they’ve always felt on the inside. Facial aesthetic surgery addresses lines, skin that has drooped or lost its elasticity, and the facial volume and fullness that we all have in our early adult years. Others opt to have surgery to achieve a better balance of their facial features. Whatever your reasons, you share with others the common goal of wanting to look better, and wanting to feel better about yourself. To present to the world an image that reflects the way you feel on the inside.

The first step in considering facial aesthetic surgery is to take the time to think about why you want the surgery, and what you expect it to do for you. Potential patients should have an appropriate idea of which features they want enhanced by surgery. Understanding your expectations will help both you, and Dr. Kayem determine if you are a good candidate for facial aesthetic surgery. It is important that patients should seek this type of surgery for themselves, and not at the request, or to please, others. Dr. Kayem feels that patients must have realistic expectations, and that this can only be attained from proper discussion between a doctor and his patient, ensuring that all questions are answered, and that the patient is comfortable, and has full trust in his doctor. This cannot be rushed, and Dr. Kayem insists on patients taking the time to discuss their concerns and have their questions answered in a non-hurried environment. These discussions are vital to a successful relationship with your doctor. Only once you clearly understand your surgery, its benefits, its possible risks, and have realistic expectations on the outcome, can you make an intelligent and informed decision to proceed. Of course, communicating with your surgeon doesn’t stop after you’ve had your surgery. You will continue to see your doctor for follow up appointments at regular intervals for several months to ensure the success of your surgery.
