Are there cosmetic surgery mandates?
The reality of today's world is that cosmetic surgery is more popular than it has ever been. What reasons are there for the increase of people who will choose to seek out a cosmetic surgeon? All types of issues can be addressed with the choice of cosmetic surgery and the affordability of it is making it more appealing to the average American. Cosmetic surgery can be a God-send to breast cancer survivors, whose life-saving surgeries have physically marred them, people who have suffered the trauma of a severe burn and are in constant pain and/or people who were born with mild-to-severe birth defects and deformitites.
At the other end of the spectrum comes the questionable reasons to choose cosmetic surgery; self-image issues, emotional related reasons, to enhance or even just drastically change one's appearance from what they were born with. Where are the limits that are placed on surgeons to assure them that the patient and their lives will be enhanced by any procedure and not end up causing emotional harm?
There isn't any such mandate that a cosmetic surgeon can use as an example when they are first approached by a potential patient. The decision as to whether or not perform any procedures is totally up to the surgeon and realistically it is understandable if their motives, at times, are more financially-based than the main concern being the well-being of the patient. The process of any type of dramatic decision as to whether or not have cosmetic surgery should always begin with the patient and a licensed therapist. This may not be a necessary step for people who are correcting some kind of physical trauma or debilitating birth defectrs, but for purely elective surgery, where there isn't any physical pain or potential danger to the patient.
There are several reasons a patient seeking elective cosmetic surgery should be working with a therapist and they range from an emotional issue of low self-esteem, if they are having the surgery to please someone else, when there are indications that the patient is expecting unrealistic results. Some people who have sought out cosmetic surgery are under the delusion that once the surgery is complete, their lives will be positively changed. The reality is that this type of behavior ends up setting up the patient to potential addiction to the procedure and they may end up seeking surgery out, without thought to the detrimental possibilities.
The sad thing is, without any mandates, one surgeon can detect a problem with a patient, refuse to do the surgery but the patient can find another surgeon who will do the procedure; often unaware of the patient's health and/or mental health history.
To what lengths can people go in search of the perfect body image, the most beautiful face before it becomes a danger? What message are we sending when a young African American man can undergo so many cosmetic surgeries that he no longer resembles not only the boy he was born to look like, but something incredibly different from his own race?
Where does it end?
