Whether you choose saline or silicone implants, it is of paramount for you to observe your breast implants and follow up with your plastic surgeon through the scheduled appointments.

Liposuction is another popular plastic surgery procedure that removes fat that you cannot get rid of through diet and exercise. It is usually performed on your hips, belly, thighs, buttocks, back, arms, or face to enhance their shapes.

Liposuction is known to increase self-esteem in two ways: it helps get rid of fat in places where we don’t want it, but it also can be a part of fat transfer cosmetic surgery, in which unwanted fat is used in breast augmentation or buttocks augmentation. With liposuction, you have greater control of where the fat is accumulating and, by reshaping your body, you can boost your self-confidence.

5. Facelift

As the years go by, our bodies surrender to the forces of gravity. Often around our 40s, we are aware that plastic surgery on the face would be a good option. For this reason, a facelift is a very common plastic surgery type, as it addresses the issue which affects a large part of society after a certain age. Facelift generally helps to boost self-confidence by pulling and tightening the facial skin, which often can be accompanied by plastic surgery on chin such as fat transfer in order to give your chin some softness and fullness they may need.

6. Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery (also called blepharoplasty), reduces bags from the lower eyelids and removes excess skin from the upper eyelids. As our skin gets older, gradually loses its elasticity. This lack of elasticity and gravity together causes excessive skin to create bagging on the upper and lower eyelids. The lower eyelid causes wrinkles and bulges, and in the upper eyelids, the extra fold of skin can get in the way of seeing. This surgery, which is usually done for cosmetic reasons, is also an effective procedure to enhance the vision affected by the sagging upper eyelids in older people. Eyelid surgery allows people to feel fresher and younger; thus it increases their self-esteem. Ironically, because this surgery will improve the vision some of them, their outlook on life may also boost accordingly.

How Many Plastic Surgery Procedures Can Be Done at Once?

There is no certain number to give this question because determining what procedures can and can’t be done together safely is the surgeon's decision. Patients have to be reasonable and totally aware of what they are getting into, apart from the surgeon’s decision of suitability. Because scar tissue that dies during recovery time can become a critical issue after multiple surgeries. Breathing problems can begin after too many nose surgeries, and people may have dry corneas, which cause eye damage, from eye lifts. Also, liposuction can be performed safely as long as only a certain amount of fat is taken out in one operation. The risk increases if the amount becomes excessive. Infection is also one of the risks with any surgery. Although it is rare for some surgeries which are known as the safest plastic surgery procedures, the risk of complications may increase in surgeries performed collectively.
