The Most Revised Plastic Surgeries

Even during national widespread economic hardships, there has been a steady increase in the number of plastic surgeries performed in the United States. Men and women aren't giving up on the idea of self-improvement. Whether it's for personal, social or employment reasons, the numbers have steadily climbed in the past three years alone. Yet, there is still a necessity for hundreds of cosmetic revisions across the country. There are some that are performed because the patient just isn't satisfied, or changed their minds after the initial procedure, which isn't a genuine revision or correction. A genuine revision or correction comes out of a botched plastic surgery, an infection or inadequate incision closure that resulted in uneven healing or an undoing of some, if not all, of the surgery that was performed.

Two of the most frequently revised plastic surgery procedures occur with the face and the breasts. These are two parts of the body that many people have spent years allowing to impact their self esteem, so having a surgeon botch the procedure, or to have a freak accident with an infection or healing temporarily ruin the appearance of the body part can be devastating. This is why the most talented surgeons of the country work around the variations in patients skin, muscles and vessels in order to safely adjust standard procedures for each face and chest. These skilled adjustments are what help bring about the smooth, natural-looking face-lifts, and the symmetrical and perky breasts that their patients trust them to be able to bring about.

When a physician does not possess that level of experience or artistry in their profession, they rely on other surgeons to correct the mistake. It is very rare for a patient to return to the same surgeon they feel "messed up" their body for the revision. So many patients hop from doctor to doctor, finding out through trial and error which is the right one for them.

Plastic surgery revisions can be scary territory. This is why it is best to do months and years of research to find the best surgeon and environment for one's surgery rather than rushing into it. The more time a potential patient has, the more likely he or she will be to give it some genuine thought, prepare their body, and to save up a little more money to afford the best doctors in the business. Surgery is not one of the consumer exchanges where "sales," "price-cuts" and "cheap" are associated with safety.
