Couples & Families & Cosmetic Surgery

Years ago I performed cosmetic surgery on a mother and son. Actually you can watch the Little Rock Cosmetic Surgery, Date Line NBC show of this mother/son surgery, on my website. I mention this because there seems to be a trend now of couples, mothers and daughters, and other related individuals to seek cosmetic surgery in tandem. This trend has increased at least 37% since I performed the surgeries that were documented by NBC.

65-year-old Lynda and her 38-year-old daughter Stefanie, of Los Angeles, underwent different cosmetic surgeries this year and found support in recovering together. Good Morning America reported they said it was a way to deepen their bond.

Heather and David Robertson reported on a ABC News show that four children and living a full life had taken a toll on their bodies. They felt closer, and ready to start a new romantic chapter of their lives after rejuvenating themselves with cosmetic surgery. These two opted for a tummy tuck and liposuction for her, and chin lift for him.

Sisters Kate and Brenda both hated their chins and decided to have surgery to improve their looks on the same day. The found increased self esteem and a closer relationship developed.

Wedding makeovers are also becoming popular. Many couples want to look their best on that special day that they commit to one another publically. Depending on how far ahead the couple plans, the procedures requested vary from injectable fillers, to face lifts, to liposuction.

Cosmetic surgery is often about improving one’s self-esteem and self-confidence, not to mention looking good. These couples and family members investing in self improvement together are finding that the experience deepens their bond, and empathy for one another, not only because they are a support system for one another during the process, but also because deep felt insecurities and fears are shared in the decision making process. Family traits are often shared genetically, and in a family system, the feelings about these traits are also shared. Open discussion sharing deep feelings can be very healing. This is because the underlying image insecurities are exposed, shared and finally corrected both physically with the surgery, and emotionally with the shared understanding of how family systems work. Little Rock, Arkansas cosmetic surgery patients can have a consultation at Little Rock Cosmetic Surgery Center to share any of these procedures with family member.
