7 Plastic Surgery Procedures That Can Boost Self-Esteem ...

By Eliza

I’m a fan of natural beauty, but I also know that some people turn to plastic surgery procedures to boost their self-esteem and make them feel better about the way they look. I would never suggest skipping a procedure that really makes you love your appearance or getting one just because someone makes a nasty comment about your looks. It might not be something I’d choose, but my years of studying psychology in grad school make it clear that there are definite benefits for some people. If you want to love what you see in the mirror, the following plastic surgery procedures are common for people who want to boost their self-esteem.

1. Breast Enlargement

There’s something about breasts that can make or a break a woman’s sense of femininity. Breast enlargement is also one of the most common plastic surgery procedures that women turn to when they want to love their look. Having larger breasts can make a small-chested lady feel more womanly and give her that curvy look that equates with being a woman.

2. Nose Job

This procedure has a technical term (rhinoplasty), but it’s usually referred to as a nose job. Your nose is a pretty prominent feature on your face, so it’s not surprising that many people feel bad about theirs. Whether you think it’s too large or it doesn’t slope attractively, having it fixed can really do wonders for how you feel when someone looks at you.

3. Tummy Tuck

If you’ve had several children or have lost a significant amount of belly fat, you might have a loose flap of skin on your tummy. While it isn’t on display often, it really bothers some people. Undergoing a tummy tuck can help tighten that skin, making it easier to fit into clothing and giving you a better outlook on your appearance.

4. Botox

It’s less invasive than some types of plastic surgery, but Botox is very popular. It works by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles and can help fight the signs of aging. Many women choose it to maintain their youthful appearance. It’s not permanent and requires maintenance, but it can be just enough to make you feel better about facing the world.

If you're in the relentless hunt for the perfect mascara, that not only volumizes but also gives your lashes the much-needed lift, then you should absolutely give the dior show mascara a try. It's undeniably one of the best mascaras that guarantees both length and volume while leaving no clumps behind.

5. Breast Lift

A breast lift isn’t the same as an enlargement, though some women have both procedures done at one time. This one simply lifts what you have and is chosen by women who have droopy breasts after nursing several babies or just when gravity kicks in and things start to migrate lower.

6. Liposuction

For people with specific trouble spots, such as the thighs or tummy, liposuction can be a good way to eliminate fat in the area to give a slimmer silhouette. By taking care of a spot that causes distress, you can really experience a boost to your self-esteem.

7. Face Lift

For many people, the signs of aging on the face are the ones that cause the most concern. After all, the whole world sees your face anytime you leave the house, so you naturally want it to look good. If you’ve started seeing some wrinkles and sagging, a face lift can really make you feel good. It basically pulls the skin on your face upward, eliminating the effects of aging.

I have never had plastic surgery, but I also know how quickly a specific trouble spot can take over your thinking. I’m all for procedures that help someone feel better about herself. However, plastic surgery can be pretty major so it’s a good idea to think it through and do some research before going under the knife. Have you had plastic surgery? How did it make you feel?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I just had a breast lift and implants, 39 yrs old.. I had lost 90 pounds about 10 years ago and was left with hanging skin "small C" boobs where there was once natural DD's.. I am now a full C and my boobs are where they should be.. So Let me tell you when I say, this was the best thing I have ever done for myself! I have not been this happy in a long time.. So the people that find this article offensive, you're just being ignorant and closed minded.

There are people who opt for plastic surgery and that find this article to be informative. Just because YOU are against it doesn't mean it's wrong.

Little nose or big nose you won't be happy with either because what you may think is a physical imperfection is a mental one. Sorry if I may have offended anyone from my other review but I'm on stable ground that can't be shaken.

@shabnam: don't be too hard on others for giving their opinion (i.e.@Cc_C). You have yours, others have theirs. Don't tell others to shut up because you don't agree with what they say, it's just simply rude and makes you look bad.

If something about your physical appearance is bothering you and you have the option to change it and feel better about yourself then go for it!!!! I speak from experience... it can change your life for the better!!!

Hollywood has given plastic surgery a bad rap... not everyone who has Botox injected looks "fake", and not everyone who's had their breast done look like a porn star. I've done both & have no regrets (work perks)! I work for 2 of the best plastic surgeons on the East Coast, and those patients that have 1 procedure done will be back for another. If you're considering plastic surgery, make sure your surgeon IS Board Certified and a member of ASPS.

I'm not against plastic surgery in the slightest but the title of the article was a little off putting. The article isn't that bad, but it is written by somebody who hasn't gone under the knife... Something to think about @rogina xx

This article is very upsetting. Thought this app was better than this. Deleting!

A curvy look that equates being a woman? Only I'm certain societies. What a horrific statement.
