Home > Myths vs Reality

• Myth : Tranplanted hair shed easily and never match original hair.
• Reality : Transplanted hair are as strong and as permanent as the original hair on your head, and they need to be maintained as normal hair. They require cutting as they grow  as normal hair do, they need washing/ shampooing, combing and dying when needed. So they behave just like your natural normal hair.

• Myth: It is against nature / unnatural to be put under surgeon's knife, purely for cosmetic reasons!
• Reality :
  • It is only that person who is comfortable with his body image  who can say like that.But what about those sensitive persons who are psychologically distressed by their inadequate or inapproriate contours/proportions or are suffering from body dysmorphic syndrome? A few simple procedures not entailing much discomfort can make such a person feel good about himself/herself. This has been my uniform experience over the years over all of my patients. The feel good factor disseminates into all other aspects of their personality.
  • Although it is a fact that plastic surgery gives maximal  benefit to those people in professions where looks matter most like models,,celebrities,front desk operators, public relation officers,air hostesses etc,it is by no means limited to these class of people alone.Statistics prove that maximum number of patients attending the plastic surgery opd and undergoing cosmetic surgery procedures belong to middle and upper middle class families and well might be your next door neighbor. Fact also remains that only the procedures done on celebrities are advertised and are publically noticed whereas the common person getting under the plastic surgeons knife prefers not to reveal about his/her surgery.
• Myth: Plastic surgery procedures are very costly!
• Realilty : This is not at all true and on the contrary , most of the cosmetic surgical procedures are very economical and within the reach of the common man. Most of the procedures can be done within your one month's pay if you are belonging to the middle or upper middle class population, and most of the procedures do not entail a long hospital stay and most of the times the patient is discharged on the day of the surgery itselves.
• Myth : A scar is a scar for ever!
• Reality : Unlike psychological scars which never heal, thanks to modern techniques of plastic surgery, bodily scars are amenable to significant modification. We have a lot of techniques in the modern era with which the scars on your body can be modified to almost invisible. Come over and you might be taken aback by the surprisingly good results!
