Benefits of Facial Plastic Surgery

A survey of American adults showed that around 85% would elect to have facial plastic surgery done if given the chance. Though there are no such formal surveys in India, the results may not be too far off. Most people want to improve their faces in some way or another. And with all the new surgical techniques available, facial plastic surgery is safer than ever before. New technologies have also decreased pain and shortened the healing period following a facial surgery.

What Does Facial Plastic Surgery Do?

A good surgeon can:

  • Refine the size and shape of the nose
  • Tighten saggy skin especially around the mouth, eyes, and neck
  • Erase wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, chin, and mouth
  • Redefine the jaw line
  • Recontour the ears
  • Improve facial symmetry


This is just a partial list of good facial plastic surgeon can also restore looks that may have been lost due to accidents or trauma.

Benefits of Facial Plastic Surgery

People who have undergone facial plastic surgery cite many advantages, both physical and psychological. Here are just some of the many psychological benefits they enjoyed:

  1. Their fresher and more youthful look often cause patients also to feel younger and become more energetic.
  2. They also report an increased in confidence, which permeates many aspects of their lives—especially their professional lives (some of them get promoted) and dating lives (they can meet more people).

Interestingly, about one in 10 facial plastic surgeries are requested by men who want to look more energetic and younger in order to advance their careers. A whopping 25% of men who underwent facial plastic surgery elected to do so because of work-related reasons.

There are also many physical advantages to having facial plastic surgery, including the following:

  1. Many patients who undergo corrective surgeries for their eyes or nose come out being able to see and breathe better.
  2. Facial muscles are tightened. The underlying facial structures (superficial muscular-aponeurotic system) tend to sag with age, but a good surgeon can tighten and rearrange them for better configuration. Doing so puts less tension on the skin and helps make the results of the facelift last much longer.
  3. Loose skin is repaired. The ‘sags’ are carefully trimmed for a youthful look without overly tightening to avoid the pulled appearance.
  4. Facial contours are improved. The cheeks and lower eyelids look smoother, and the jaw line appears more contoured. Jowls are eliminated and the neck area is smoothened.


The best way to decide if you should undergo facial plastic surgery is to consult with a surgeon. Find someone who is friendly and professional, and has all the licenses necessary to conduct this procedure.
