Celebrities going overboard with plastic surgery is nothing new. There have been numerous ones over the years that have made headlines just for the drastic and unrealistic changes they have made. But for the average person, it doesn’t need to be like that. They can get the changes they want and still maintain a natural look. It all comes down to the procedures they choose and where they decide to have them done.
“Many people want to freshen up their appearance or turn the clock back on some of the aging, but they fear drastic results, especially after seeing it happen to some celebrities,” explains Dr. Sanjiv Saini of MD Dermatology, with locations in Edgewater, Glen Burnie and Lexington Park, Maryland. “There is actually a lot we can do to help people look younger, have a better glow, and love what they see in the mirror, all while providing results that look natural.”
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that more than 11 million cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2013, for a total of $12 billion in sales. Options that provide a more natural look will provide a great version of one’s own appearance by enhancing it, rather than drastically altering it or giving it a plastic or pulled look. Here are 6 options to consider for enhancing one’s appearance and still getting a natural looking result:
- Precision Neck Contouring. For those who don’t like their neck, or feel they have a turkey neck, this procedure is one that will successful address that. Plus, it requires minimal downtime and is minimally invasive, and provides long-lasting results.
- Laser options. The laser options can be used to successfully address such issues as wrinkles, fine lines, and even sun damage. They are a popular option for turning back the clock on aging.
- Injectables. In 2013, there was $2.5 billion spent on injectables, which includes Botox and Juviderm, because they provide are affordable, take only five minutes, and relax the wrinkles and fine lines on the face.
- Peels. There are a variety of chemical peels that can be done that will remove the damaged layer of skin from the face. This will help provide a healthy glow, allowing a fresh look to emerge.
- Microdermabrasion. This is a skin resurfacing procedure that will gently exfoliate and remove the top layer of dead cells, but it also stimulates the growth of collagen, helping to create a smoother, healthier appearance. It’s noninvasive and provides great results, which is why nearly half a million people opted for it last year.
- Facials. For those who are not ready for the other options, getting facials can also provide people with a natural glow that leaves them looking fresh. They are simple, do not involve injections and are not invasive, nor do they involve downtime. Most people find getting them to be refreshing and relaxing.
“Many people consider me to be an artist because I am able to accurately tell them how they will look with each of these procedures,” added Dr. Saini. “Having the appearance you want without the drastic or unwanted changes is entirely possible. We do it for people on a daily basis and have helped many people achieve the natural looking results they want.”
