Teens and Plastic Surgery



According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) there are many different reasons why teenagers opt for plastic surgery.

In the year 2005 alone more than 300,000 people under 18 years of age opted to undergo plastic surgery.

For some of this teens, the procedure could be as simple as dermabrasion ( a simple procedure to help smoothen or lessen the appearance of acne scars) or it could be as major as nose reshaping (Rhinoplasty) and breast augmentation.

One of the things that a teenager should consider before going for surgery is the cost and real benefit they will get from this cosmetic procedures. It is important for them to understand that undergoing plastic surgery is not the only solutions to their problems and should not be the only option they should consider. They should have realistic expectations of whatever benefits they would gain from it. It is important for parents and doctors alike to determine whether the teenager who wants plastic surgery is mature enough to understand the accompanying temporary disfigurement and discomfort they will have to endure while they are recovering from surgery.

A chemical peel is a type of cosmetic surgery. It is a acid solution that is put all over the face, depending on how deep you want the peel to go it can have different strengths.
Chemical peels use different types of acid solution to improve and smooth the texture of the skin on your face. The acid works by removing damaged layers of skin and are sometimes also used on the neck and hand areas. Chemical peels have been proven to be one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures chosen by patients. Chemical peels are considered to be non surgical so that may be why they are so popular. Chemical peels can vary depending on their specific ingredients and strength. The depth of the peeling can also depend on how long the solutions remain on the skin and if they are lightly or heavily applied. The most common performed chemical peel procedures are lightly applied to smooth the skin.

There are three types of cosmetic surgery chemical peels. For light to medium uses,
physicians use alpha hydroxyl acid. Phenol is the strongest acid and is used for the deepest peels. TCA peels are effective in treating people who have darker skin. The deep peel is usually used on patients who have the deepest wrinkling on their skin. Chemical peels may be done in conjunction when a facelift is performed. A chemical peel is mostly useful for fine wrinkles on the cheeks, the forehead and around the eyes and mouth. One of the benefits of having a cosmetic surgery chemical peel is when the top layer of skin is peeled, new smoother skin regenerates. If you have sun damaged skin a deeper chemical peel may be more effective. Sometimes just a single treatment will produce the radiant look of younger skin. Time off from your work and normal activities are usually not required for a chemical peel.

All three of the chemical peel procedures can cause puffiness to the face, this usually will leave after a few days. Medium peels usually don't require anesthesia, while the deepest peels usually require sedation. Temporary flaking, redness and dryness are normal after you have a chemical peel procedure done on your face. Ointments are available for the skin after surgery. Some of the deepest chemical peels may require a break from activities for one to two weeks. A person that has fair skin, light hair, a wrinkled face, age and sun spots on the face, freckles, or splotching of the face and who wants a fresher look is a perfect candidate for a chemical peel. A chemical peel procedure does not correct sagging, bulges and furrows on the face. These conditions are treated better by other cosmetic surgery procedures. Not everyone is suitable for a chemical peel procedure. Before you have a chemical peel your surgeon must evaluate your background, age, color and skin type, to help prevent any unforeseen complications. Only a qualified surgeon should perform a cosmetic surgery chemical peel on a patient. Talk to your doctor and get all the facts before having a chemical peel procedure. Penial Surgey
