Hello~

💎Your beauty universe! This is Weverse Plastic Surgery :)💎

At our plastic surgery clinic, there are times when we advise patients

against getting surgery.

To be exact, these are situations where surgery is 'put on hold'.

Shall we find out why getting plastic surgery

isn't always the answer?

The first case is when the tissue condition

is not healthy enough to undergo surgery.

Even if it looks possible externally,

if the skin is excessively thin or thick,

or if the tissues have not yet fully recovered,

the post-operative results may fall outside the predictable range.

If surgery is forced under these conditions, the likelihood of scarring,

delayed recovery, and asymmetry increases.

In such cases, stabilizing the skin and tissues

before surgery is more important than anything else.

The second case is when the gap between the expected changes

and the actually possible changes is too large.

Because each face has a different anatomical structure,

not everyone can change into the exact same shape.

If the desired image greatly exceeds the limits

of the current bone structure or soft tissues,

satisfaction may be low even after multiple surgeries.

In these situations, we first accurately explain the possible range

and limitations to the patient,

and we do not recommend pushing for an unreasonable surgery.

The third case is when the patient is not in a situation to properly manage their recovery.

The success of a surgery depends more on 'after the surgery' than the 'surgery itself'.

However, if it is difficult to secure a recovery period

due to studies, work, or childcare,

swelling may last longer or the results may not settle beautifully.

In such cases, adjusting the schedule

to secure enough free time is the best option.

Lastly, it is when the patient is already

in a sufficiently natural and harmonious state.

Often, the complex the patient feels

is actually just a minor asymmetry

or a slight difference in volume.

From a specialist's perspective and judgment,

if the changes gained from surgery are minimal,

or if a minor change could ruin the harmony of the facial features

or the overall face,

it may be better to postpone the surgery or opt for future maintenance instead.

Ultimately, I believe the role of a plastic surgeon

is not simply 'someone who performs surgery',

but someone who helps find the most helpful choice for you right now.

Finally,

I sincerely want to tell you that sometimes 'not doing' surgery

produces better results than doing it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there cases where a plastic surgeon advises against surgery?

Yes, there are. Surgery may be postponed for various reasons, such as when the tissue condition is unhealthy, when there's a significant difference between the desired and actually achievable changes, when recovery management is difficult, or when the patient already has a natural and harmonious appearance. This is to find the best option that is most beneficial for the patient.

Why is surgery postponed if the tissue condition is not good?

If the tissue condition is unhealthy, there's a higher chance of scarring, delayed recovery, and asymmetry after surgery. When the skin is excessively thin or thick, or not fully recovered, results may deviate from the predicted range, so tissue stabilization is needed first.

What happens if the desired appearance differs from what is actually possible?

If the desired image significantly exceeds the limitations of the current bone structure or soft tissues, patient satisfaction may be low even after multiple surgeries. In such cases, the surgeon may accurately explain the possible range and limitations and advise against unreasonable surgery.

Is securing a sufficient recovery period after surgery important?

Yes, it is very important. The success of surgery depends more on post-operative care than on the surgery itself. If you cannot secure enough recovery time due to studies, work, or childcare, swelling may persist, or the results may not settle beautifully, so timing adjustment is necessary.

Can surgery be advised against even if the patient already looks natural?

Yes, it is possible. If the complex the patient feels is only a minor asymmetry or volume difference, and a specialist determines that the surgical change would be minimal or could even harm facial harmony, surgery may be postponed, or future management may be recommended.
