Cosmetic Surgery For Adolescents
These days, as more and more adolescents are requesting cosmetic surgery, and parents are allowing or even encouraging it, there is one factor which many do not take into consideration. Unfortunately, many medical practitioners who deal with cosmetic surgery fail to bring this problem to the attention of either the youngsters or their parents.
A person's body does not generally finish its complete growth until early adulthood. For most, this usually ranges from the late teens to the early twenties. Prior to this period, the person's body is still in various stages of growth; and, on the physical side of it, this is the main reason why cosmetic surgery should be avoided in adolescence.
Altering the structure of a person's body parts while they are still in a growth stage is harmful. The younger that the person is, the more of a problem it can be, because the younger the person the more interference cosmetic surgery will cause with normal growth. As cosmetic surgery is being done at younger and younger ages, and it becoming more and more acceptable to do so, the longterm repercussions of such surgery are too frequently overlooked.
One of the main problems that adolescents and their parents do not address, or possibly are not even aware of, is that even after cosmetic surgery the body will naturally attempt to continue its normal growth patterns. If unnecessary cosmetic surgery has been performed, this can lead to difficulties ranging from infection to deformity, depending on the individual and the extent of the surgery. Again, the younger the person is, the more likely that serious complications will arise.
There is a huge difference between cosmetic surgery where there is some degree of necessity, such as needing reconstructive surgery due to an accident, and to the opposite extreme of wishing to have procedures done simply because one is unhappy with one's normal appearance. In cases where the latter is the only reason, it is wise to avoid having such procedures done until the person's entire period of body grown has been completed. This way, whatever specific body part the person desires the surgery on will have had the chance to attain its full adult state, thereby lessening the risks of it causing future complications from interference with normal growth.
The bottom line is that whatever "part" a youngster wishes to have surgically corrected should be allowed to wait until both early adult age and examination have shown that the person has indeed finished growing. Many disasters and needless heartbreak can be avoided if cosmetic surgeons become more willing to discuss this factor with youngsters and their parents in advance; or, better yet, to implement a policy of not doing cosmetic surgery procedures on adolescents at all unless there is some type of extraordinary medical circumstances which would make the procedures to be a wise decision.
In the absence of circumstances such as a valid health concern or disfigurement from an accident, cosmetic surgery should not be performed on those who are not yet adults.
