 The downing of a new era in cosmetic surgery, introducing advent of a new specialty in cosmetic surgery
There was a time when cosmetic surgery was considered exclusively reserved for the rich, famous and unusual people. Over the last several decades however this profession has evolved and grown. Millions of patients have undergone cosmetic surgery in the last several decades. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), from 1997 to 2001, there was a 304% increase in the number of cosmetic procedures. To date there has been a report of over 444 percent increase since 1997. In 2002, only 6.9 million surgical and non-surgical procedures were performed in 2002. However in 2005 alone, over 10.2 million cosmetic plastic surgical procedures were performed in the United States alone, up 11 percent from 2004. In 2006, according to www.aboardcertifiedplasticsurgeonresource.com in USA alone over 11.5 million cosmetic procedures (both surgical and non-surgical) were performed. According to Dr. Mark L. Jewel, the President of the Aesthetic Society, “Statistics show interesting results in breast augmentation and breast lift” …”these areas continue to increase; breast augmentation by 9 percent and breast lift by 23 percent”.…Cosmetic Surgery profession continues to grow and evolve. Having cosmetic surgery is not merely for a select and wealthy few, but now it is an accepted and usual undertaking in almost all developed cultures globally. Baby Boomers, According to a study conducted by the ASPAS age 35 – 50 had the most procedures—44% of the total in one study. Men and women 51 to 64 had 25% of procedures; age 19-34 had 22% and age 65-and-older had 5%and age-19-and-under had 3.5%.
It is noteworthy and perhaps lifesaving to realize the quality and standard of cosmetic surgery is not the same across the globe. Every year, an increasing number of thousands of American patients travel to far away destinations across the globe including but not limited to Mexico, South America; Thailand; Dubai and Europe to have cosmetic surgery mostly to save money and sometimes to incorporate their procedures into a vacation. “Cosmetic surgery tourism is a price-driven phenomenon according to American Society of Plastic Surgeons. ASPS released a Briefing in which it cautioned the public that “it may be difficult to assess the training and credentials of surgeons outside of the United States”.

"It breaks my heart when patients who went semewhere to save money (perhaps to a foreign country with lower standards of care than those of the United States or Discount Surgical Centers with less emphasis on quality of care) come to me to fix the result of their unsatisfactory Cosmetic Surgery. Sometimes, even I, after years of experience doing some of the most difficult advanced, revisional and reconstructive Cosmetic Surgeries can't help them anymore! Please don't do this to yourself, you deserve better!
If you don't have the Time or the Money to do it Right the first time, when are you going to have the time or the money to do it all over again?"

New specialty
Cosmetic Surgery is a truly fantastic specialty. It is by far, one of the most exciting, rewarding yet challenging and subjective specialties of Medicine. There are very rare specialties of medicine that are as gratifying as cosmetic surgery in which a surgeon can participate in further improvement and transformation of their healthy and happy patients’ lives and witness the results of their efforts almost immediately. On the other hand however, Cosmetic Surgery can be a subjective specialty in that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” hence this reality lends itself well to making the results of any cosmetic surgery subject to the judgment of the patient as well as others.
There are rare opportunities in life for any one of us to seek-out an expert who can team up with us and help transform our lives for the better. Cosmetic Surgery experts can help us achieve such transformation. Every year, around the world, millions of patients undergo successful cosmetic surgeries and find themselves closer to their ideal vision of themselves. Life is about transformation and no matter how wonderful a person may look, he or she can always improve. A patient can always wish to have more cosmetic surgery. After all, cosmetic surgery is an elective surgery and there is almost no end point; hence it can almost always be improved. The best Cosmetic Surgeons in the world only do fifty-percent of the work and are only responsible for fifty percent of the cosmetic surgery results. The other fifty percent depends on the patient’s healing capacity, genetics; medical conditions that may contribute to the results and overall multitude of factors that can not be predicted nor controlled by the patient, the surgeon or anyone else.
On rare occasions, there are those patients who are not yet satisfied with the outcome of their cosmetic surgeries and still wish to undergo revisional surgeries to improve their cosmetic surgical results. It is this reality that leading to the emergence of a new specialty within the field of cosmetic surgery.
Revising a previously performed cosmetic surgery and improving its results can be a major challenge. Those specialists who embark on performing these revisional surgeries not only must have had a proper training and adhere to the highest standards of cosmetic surgery but have performed thousands of cosmetic surgeries of the face, nose, body and breasts and skin have distinguished themselves as super specialists and seem to be getting plenty of referral for what they do best, improve the outcomes of patients’ cosmetic surgery. Cosmetic Revision Surgeons specialize in Advanced, Revisional and Reconstructive Cosmetic Surger can be called Cosmetic Revision Surgeons. Usually, in the process of the original surgery the normal anatomy has most likely been modified and the Revision-Specialist Surgeon needs to identify the normal anatomy and also be aware of the changes that can occur both as a result of normal healing process as well as the unwanted changes that can result after surgery which may be responsible for the undesired cosmetic results. As surgeons become more experienced and perform thousands of surgeries of advanced, revisional or reconstructive cosmetic surgery, their level of expertise increases in performing corrective revisional cosmetic surgery. The surgeons eventually become surgeons’ surgeons. They learn to perform those surgeries that younger and more inexperienced surgeons are not able to manage easily. They become experts and receive referrals from the community to improve other surgeons’ results.
