From a doctor’s perspective…
I’m a doctor, and much of my job used to involve working at a botox clinic in cheshire – nowadays I mainly do research on up and coming techniques. But my mind is still the same: whenever I hear two people discussing cosmetic surgery I am intrigued and I can’t help but eavesdrop. Granted, it’s a lot easier to eavesdrop when you’re sitting on the bus and the two people sitting in front of you are talking much too loudly to be reasonably ignored.
What they were saying – combined with my memories of working at the practice – made me think of old times. First came the address of the place where I used to spend a lot of time – Court House Clinics, 3 Swan Street, Wilsmlow, Cheshire, SK9 1HF – and then came the memories of many happy clients. But all that was interrupted horribly when one of the people in front of me started saying how cosmetic surgery is very dangerous and to be avoided at all costs.
Soon enough we were changing the way she would see herself forever…
At first, just for a split-second, I was incensed…how dare these people spout off about things they know nothing about! I thought. But then I calmed down and relaxed. Because as much as these two people had their hearts set on never being talked round, I know and you probably know that there will always be a good reason to go down this route – and sometimes that reason has nothing to do with wanting to look better.
Take a client I once had who had been born with a large birth-mark across her face and over her nose. The woman turned up at my clinic in visible distress, and her friend proceeded to tell me that this was normal for her friend. She rarely went out of the house and when she did she didn’t have the confidence to go anywhere on her own. Quite simply, her birth-mark was ruining her life…
So there was pressure from that moment on to sort this out. I thought long and hard about the case, as there was so much emotion involved. I eventually came to the conclusion that helping her drastically would be for the best.
When the surgery day came the woman was barely able to breath. I honestly thought it wouldn’t go ahead, but to my surprise we managed to get her under control. Soon enough we were changing the way she would see herself forever.
The operation was a huge success. Although I haven’t seen that patient in the flesh, I have heard from her over the email and in her photos she looked like she loved life now. That was enough confirmation for me that cosmetic surgery could be the best thing in the entire World.
