If you are considering plastic surgery, you must be honest with yourself. Exactly why do you want surgery? And, what are your goals for surgery-what do you expect plastic surgery to do for you?
There are two categories of patients who are good candidates for surgery. The first includes patients with a strong self-image, who are bothered by a physical characteristic that they’d like to improve or change. After surgery, these patients feel good about the results and maintain a positive image about themselves.
The second category includes patients who have a physical defect or cosmetic flaw that has diminished their self-esteem over time. These patients may adjust rather slowly after surgery, as rebuilding confidence takes time. However, as they adjust, these patients’ self-image is strengthened, sometimes dramatically.
It’s important to remember that plastic surgery can create both physical changes and and changes in self-esteem. If you are seeking surgery with the hope of influencing a change in someone other than yourself, you might end up disappointed. It’s possible that friends and loved ones will respond positively to your change in appearance and self-confidence, however understand and accept that plastic surgery will not cause dramatic changes in people other than you.

Not everyone is an appropriate candidate for plastic surgery, despite physical indications which are ideal for any given procedure. Experienced plastic surgeons can usually identify troubled patients during a consultation. Sometimes, plastic surgeons will decline to operate on these individuals. Other times, they may recommend psychological counseling to ensure that the patient’s desire for an appearance change isn’t part of an emotional problem that no amount of surgery can fix. If your plastic surgeon recommends counseling for you, feel free to ask your surgeon how he or she expects the sessions to help you.
Though there are exceptions, individuals who may be advised to seek counseling prior to any consideration of surgery include:
Patients in crisis, such as those who are going through divorce, the death of a spouse, or the loss of a job. These patients may be seeking to achieve goals that cannot be obtained through an appearance change-goals that relate to overcoming crisis through an unrelated change in appearance is not the solution. Rather, a patient must first work through the crisis.
Patients with unrealistic expectations, such as those who insist on having a celebrity’s nose, with the hope that they may acquire a celebrity lifestyle; patients who want to be restored to their original “perfection” following a severe accident or a serious illness; or patients who wish to find the youth of many decades past.
Impossible-to-please patients, such as individuals who consult with surgeon after surgeon, seeking the answers they want to hear. These patients hope for a cure to a problem which is not primarily, or not at all physical.
Patients who are obsessed with a very minor defect, and may believe that once their defect is fixed, life will be perfect. Born perfectionists may be suitable candidates for surgery, as long as they are realistic enough to understand that surgical results may not precisely match their goals.
Patients who have a mental illness, and exhibit delusional or paranoid behavior, may also be poor candidates for surgery. Surgery may be appropriate in these cases if it is determined that the patient’s goals for surgery are not related to the psychosis. In these cases, a plastic surgeon may work closely with the patient’s psychiatrist.

Contacting a plastic surgeon is probably the best idea for advice. These sites have a lot of other helpful information…

im sorry but u dont nned it in that second to last pis u looked lik a tooth pic

hey! listen, god does not make mistakes. if people don’t like the way you look, then that,s their malfunction!! what ever you want to do to yourself, you have to do it for you. there is an old Ricky nelson song( if you know who he is) called garden party. few of the words are ” you can,t please everyone so you got to please yourself” take the words to heart, and don,t sweat it!!!

oh my goodness. please do not get plastic surgery. you will not like it when you are much older. You are beautiful now, please do not do this. You are still young too. You should not be thinking about having plastic surgery soon.

If you have this big of a self-esteem problem, surgery will do nothing for you.

No matter how many operations you have, how much money you spend, you will still feel like sh*t about yourself because the problem is not what’s actually in the mirror, but what you SEE.

I mean, if you want to waste all your money turning yourself into a plastic Barbie doll, be my guest. But most people DO NOT find that attractive. And like I said, it’s not going to make you feel any better.

My suggestion is therapy.

How about a self-confidence lift?

You are not ugly. How about a trip to the gym a few times a week? You aren’t fat, not from what I can see… but going to the gym (or the Y) and working out will help you tone up and keep you looking good. Exercise also releases endorphins… brain chemicals that promote feelings of well-being. You’ll also get to see people who look a lot less fit than you do– not to make fun of anyine, but to realize that there are all sorts of people out there who may not meet society’s description of “beautiful”. Yet they care enough about themselves anyway to NATURALLY improve their appearance through diet and exercise… a method that won’t have horrible side effects or anesthesia risks.

Chin up, girl… you are NOT unattractive! You have a lovely smile and pretty eyes. Now wear that smile, and be proud.

Omg are you actually kidding me? Girl you are so cute, stop lying.
I dont think you need any of those procedures and with your figure you could prob do modelling.
If you’re really that hung up about your nose, use some shading techniques with make up.
Just keep telling yourself that you are pretty and soon you will see how pretty you are. Dont throw all of that money, you could do much better things with that kind of money.

I had a rhinoplasty, ***** and lipo-sculpture,along with other things like upper and lower lids, cheek implants and chin implant, So I consider myself an expert. I first off looked at your photos, I was expecting ugly and I would say I don’t find you the least bit ugly, in fact I find you to be really cute. If you were to get one thing done, I would say a rhinoplasty, just to soften up your face, anything else would be ridiculous and that one thing would make you a total hotty. Although not necessary, that would be the one I would choose, and it is what I chose first, because the nose is the focal point of the face, it is what everyone focuses on.

Rhinoplasty – You could do this if you particularly dislike your nose; I had this done, and I’m really happy with the results. It’s not a bad nose, but you could enhance it by having the tip narrowed.

Mentoplasty – From what I can see, there is absolutely nothing wrong with your chin.

Liposuction – From where? When looking at the pictures with your body in them, I actually thought, “Does she have an eating disorder?” So, unless you’ve gained an insane amount of weight since then, I’d rule out liposuction.

Face Lift – Sure, if you’d like to look like Joan Rivers.

Implants – I’ve never understood these; they always look obviously fake to me. If you’re really insistent on it, you could at least wait a few years to see if they come up with something more natural looking/feeling.

You’re not ugly, and I really don’t think you need any of this done. If you’re seriously unhappy with how you look now, then rhinoplasty should be the only thing to really consider. The shape of the nose has a huge impact on the overall appearance of the face. Looking back at the pictures, I think that if your tip were slightly less bulbous – slightly, as it’s not a bad nose to begin with – it would mean the difference between average attractiveness and above average attractiveness.

you look fine. we have the same nose. you must have problems. you don’t want to be another one of these people
