Mandatory Aesthetic Surgeries
Mandatory Aesthetic Surgeries
In fact, although the name is aesthetic, they are not arbitrary surgeries, they are problems that cause serious problems in people's lives. First of all, it is necessary to dwell on the word aesthetics, whatever we do is aesthetic, whatever we do, it is important because society often directs us and we have to submit to social perception. We throw our troubles inside, although it is possible to live with some problems, very difficult situations seriously affect our quality of life. Although we value social rules and judgments, it is necessary to look at the issue from the perspective of health in order to see that our problems do not conflict with them.
To understand this, I would like to talk through an example. One major issue to suffer from is excessive size of the breasts; Unfortunately, breasts that grow with puberty in familial, childbearing and lactation periods seriously affect even our daily lives due to their large volume and weight. You hear a lot around you, from low back-neck pain to waist-neck hernia, nappy rash, fungal and other infections, flattening in the shoulder, increase in humpback with forward bending are some of the dozens of problems to be counted. As I have heard from many women who say, "Why have I been suffering this pain for 20 years after the operation," do not spend your youth and the times when you will be more productive for yourself and your family in this way. Do not wait for the next years, when the problem becomes unbearable. Of course, the other important part is other annoying problems such as the restriction of the movements of our women, who are now more social, from the clothes they wear during the day, and their being in the background in social environments. Unfortunately, the excessive sagging and large size of our organ, which we know how important it is for women, makes life seriously unbearable, but it is obvious that correcting it is not an aesthetic operation.
Again, in the same way and on the contrary, let's look at the situation of a woman who has no breasts. It is both a psychological and physical trauma. Unfortunately, the absence of breasts, which is very important for women, reduces the self-confidence of women and post-operative satisfaction is one of the peak procedures. The aim is not to make a normal breast larger and steeper, but to create a non-existent breast. Our women want this surgery for themselves, not for anyone, but because they are women, and they are right. We need to understand this. Of course, we men cannot think and feel like women, but we can try to understand. As I will give an example, we cannot condemn our women to live with a flat breast like a man, just as we do not accept having breasts like a woman. In fact, our women hold back from seeing the reaction they are afraid of from the women around them rather than from the men. While we have some physical and emotional characteristics as a requirement of being a woman, and we are right, we should not torture ourselves by staying away from them.
The same situation in men, and on the contrary, female-type breasts (gynecomastia), sagging big breasts that can be seen from under the dress, sometimes we can't even go to the sea, and sometimes we can't even wear a T-shirt that ruins life. Although it doesn't sound good, believe me, it is more difficult to live with them, which I have seen in my close environment. Our breasts, which we can bring back to normal with a very simple operation, and most of them without a trace, should not make our lives difficult and limit them. It is even possible to give the muscular image we want if we want.
When I think of it as a man, of course, it is not nice to have female-type breasts, and the same is true for a woman with a flat chest like a man. I regret to say that it is more traumatic for the woman. Because after the surgery, I felt like a woman after the surgery is a statement that we don't want to hear, but it's just as good in causing happiness. My self-confidence has returned, another phrase we hear often.
It is possible to give many examples such as nasal surgeries;
The nose is our most prominent organ that both starts the respiratory function and completes the appearance in the middle of our face. I'm not counting the breathing problems, they should be corrected with an operation, but most importantly, the serious curvature and deformity of our nose, which was carefully created in the middle of our face, due to congenital or later problems. While we were created as a social creature and we need to be in contact with each other, this one, which is a serious visual problem, needs to be brought back to normal. Psychologically, for a problem that even affects the choice of friends and spouses, bringing it back to normal should not be considered as an aesthetic operation. Of course, there is no end to the request, there may be requests such as getting my nose a little higher, smaller, thinner. What we are talking about here is not changing the normal for the better or optionally, it is the process of eliminating a problem that creates psychological problems and is accepted by everyone, and brings it back to normal.
Another problem is that with excessive weight loss, our melted bodies like soap recover again.
The expression of some of our patients is 'Sir, I had stomach surgery because my overweight is harmful to my health and it is not normal, but the result is problems in my body, my skin sagging downwards, my wife does not even look at me' sentence If you have a friend around, better moments are better when we lose weight like an inflated balloon deflates. It turns into a situation as if you are wearing an XL size dress while waiting for the small size.
By the way, I will talk about it briefly, again, the drooping and excess skin on the eyelids, which generally increases with age. In some of our patients, it can be brought back to normal with a short procedure without waiting for it to become a situation that reduces or even prevents vision. Because over time, the weight on the eyelids and the eyelid skin descending to the front like a curtain, becomes a situation that puts our daily life in serious trouble.
