Question by @>*~Be@ut!ful D!$ @$ ter~*<@: What is the best finance company for plastic surgery?
Had gastric bypass surgery in 2001 and then 2 kids since. I want to have plastic surgery to help remove the excess skin that no matter how much I do never comes off. What is the best finance company to go with??

Best answer:

Answer by adrienne
this is a good question because i have the same problem. there is a company called care credit (for health-care) they usually deal in dental, cosmetic and vet services and other, etc…you can talk to your bank. call the dr offices and they can tell you some info, as well as lending companies (american finance, etc..) even your bank can give you a loan (i.e. credit card, etc..) you just have to prove you have the resources to pay back..good credit rating, etc..hope this helps!

I’ve seen a few pictures of facial surgery being done and they didn’t look like something God would allow. Does it say anywhere in the bible about cosmetic and plastic surgery?

Question by Grant: So my i am going into the USMC, i was wondering about the free cosmetic surgery for family members?
The family member would be my beloved mother. she recently had the bariatric surgery so she has lost a bunch of wait. i heard about this and am just wondering if this could be of benefit to her. it is considered a medically necessary procedure.
Thanks.

The military won’t give her free cosmetic surgery. She can’t even use your health benefits unless you claim her as a dependent.

Which is the safest and most reasonable country to get cosmetic surgery?

February 24, 2011 By 2 Comments

Question by Gaye: Which is the safest and most reasonable country to get cosmetic surgery?
I’ve heard that India, Poland, and Mexico are reasonable, but I’ve no idea if this is accurate.

Best answer:

Answer by Tiara
You can probably get cosmetic surgery cheaper in another country. BUT I would not think it would be safe. Other countries have different laws about how to do things. I would not think they are as clean as you may want.

To me both are important. Your first appointment with a doctor is usually free. At that time you can ask for prices. If the doctor is more than you wish to pay, I would try the next one on your list. But I would definitely not go to another country.

Years ago my husband and I were in Mexico and he got very ill. We had to go to a hospital in Mexico. It was awful. They do not do things the same way as we do in our country. The hospital was filthy. They did make him well. But when we came home and asked a physician what the medicine was that was given to my husband. No one knew.

It was quite frightening. Plus no one knowing English was not nice either.

what state has the least expensive cosmetic surgery costs?

February 24, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Question by Jillian: what state has the least expensive cosmetic surgery costs?
I’m not saying cheap like bad quality or unsafe circumstances but I just assume there is a state or area in the U.S where it may be cheaper.

Best answer:

Answer by Wilma F
any good medical college that teaches plastic surgery.

my cousin had a cosmetic procedure performed by the head of the department for 1/2 of what she would have paid if she had gone to that same doctor’s practice. She had to agree to have her procedure filmed as this was a teaching hospital.

again, you still have to research the doctors and know who is going to be working on you before you agree.

as to private practices: any where you go it’s going to be expensive because it’s considered unnecessary surgery. the state the work is being done in doesn’t really reflect in the price of the work. What you are paying for is the doctor’s expertise and proficiency.

Should parents be allowed to perform cosmetic surgery on children without their consent?

February 24, 2011 By 15 Comments

Question by Junie: Should parents be allowed to perform cosmetic surgery on children without their consent?
I am referring to a varitey of procedures:
1) Male Circumcision
2) Female Circumcision/ genital mutilation
3) The “fixing” of intersexed babies
4) Foot binding or over-corseting of girls

To a lesser extent:
5) Piercings and, hypothetically, tattoos
6) Forcing them to use tanning beds

Ideas? Are some body modifications acceptable, but not others? Where do you draw the line?

Best answer:

Answer by Rio Madeira
I go back and forth about male circumcision (I’m leaning more toward “no” nowadays), but as for everything else, all bets are off. I remember seeing a baby girl with pierced ears and wondering how a parent could put her through that at such a young age.

Cosmetic surgery: Good, bad, or not any different that putting on lipstick?

February 23, 2011 By 3 Comments

Question by Sophia: Cosmetic surgery: Good, bad, or not any different that putting on lipstick?
Do you think cosmetic surgery is appropriate?

I think it’s fine, because everyone has the right to modify their bodies however they want. With make-up, or tattoos, or hair dye, or anything.

Best answer:

Answer by rotting.kunt@ymail.com
Well it is appropriate for anyone to modify their bodies. I just don’t understand how anyone could hate their body so much that they would have to pay so much just to change it.

Plus, if you’re lucky and your surgery turns out well, it will last for a few years untill you are old, and chances are, you will look worse as you age. Not only that, but you have to get monthly checkups to see how it is turning out. Cosmetic surgery only lasts for so long and in the end it will be twice as worse.

In my opinion, if a person is obese, then surgery such as liposunction may be needed to be applied in order to keep your body in a functioning condition. People that change the way they look by surgery are people that cannot accept the way they are.

Another fact: Make up (like lipstick, I guess) IS NOT SUPPOSED TO MODIFY your body, it ENHANCES your features. Make up is not something to cover your face up in, it is suppose to bring out your good features and obscure the not so good.

Another thing about tattoos and piercings, to me, they are just symbols to represent a certain thing that is important to me, for example friendship, or love or something significantly good/impotrant that took place in my life.
