Although cosmetic surgery(and non-surgically cosmetic 1 procedures, such as Botox injections)sometimes produce negative outcomes—media often highlights surgery "disasters"— 2 in the most part, the health risk for cosmetic procedures 3 is low and patient satisfaction is high. Often, people who have been hobbled by poor body image of all their life, walk away from 4 cosmetic surgery in confidence and the motivation to lead 5 healthier lives. In addition, reconstructive surgery for burning 6 and accident victims or to those disfigured from disease restore 7 self-esteem and well-being in the way that other therapy cannot. 8 In my professional opinion, it is a time for members of the 9 medical community to examine the benefits and results of cosmetic surgery with prejudice and jealousy. 10
