Clevens: The Health Benefits of Plastic Surgery
February 9, 2017 | By Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS
In my experience, patients seek cosmetic surgery for an array of reasons. Some want the correction of an accident or deformity. Many desire reconstructive surgery for skin cancer. Others simply want to grow old gracefully, but everyone wants to look as good as they feel.
Besides improving appearance and helping you feel better about yourself, there are health benefits of plastic surgery that most individuals aren’t aware of. Plastic surgery can improve breathing, vision, neck and back pain, self-esteem and self-confidence, and according to many studies, even increase your income.
