Facial Plastic Surgery As a Gift

Gifting the gift of facial plastic surgery has become a trend in recent times. Clinics have noticed an increase in appointments from Thanksgiving through New Year’s thanks to people who want to look good for these special occasions. But what brought about this new trend?

With the rise of gift certificates sold online, many have purchased these simple procedures and used them as actual gifts to other people. Procedures such as rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, and injectables like botox are just a few packages. Just make sure that the clinic selling these have board-certified facial plastic surgeons. 

So should you get your friend or family member one of these gift cards? Well, the answer to that can be tricky. Facial plastic surgery isn’t the same as gifting a hat. The gift-giver has to communicate properly to the receiver his or her intentions. Is it something that he or she needs but can’t afford to pay for at the time or are they too busy to scout for the right place to undergo the procedure?  

A gift-giver can get a no for an answer. Keep in mind, some people may not like the risks involved in these procedures. 

If your loved one agrees to the gift, let them be the one to choose their surgeon if possible. Facial plastic surgery is a very personal endeavor and choosing the right hands is paramount.
