Psychiatrists recommend that you should undergo aesthetic procedures only if you're doing it to please yourself.

Aesthetic procedures such as liposuction, breast augmentation, facelifts and chemical peels are becoming more popular in the United States than ever before. If you’re wondering whether you are a good candidate for these aesthetic procedures, consider the following:

• You should understand the risks before you undergo aesthetic procedures. Any time a local or general anesthetic is used, post-operative complications can occur. Most of these complications can increase recovery time, and some can be life-threatening as well.
• You should be in relatively good health. People with conditions such as diabetes or heart disease should seriously consider whether they can endure aesthetic procedures that may damage tissue, nerves and blood vessels.
• You should be willing to change your lifestyle to accommodate the “new you.” For example, a liposuction patient should eat a more healthy diet to preserve new body contours and protect the somewhat sizeable investment.
• Choosing the right recovery program will be paramount to the “new you”.  Garments such as compression garments, liposuction recovery garments, breast augmentation bras, abdominal binders and compression girdles will help with the body  contouring, while scar creams, scar gels and other scar management products will help with possible scarring.
