Are you a fashion victim who has wreaked havoc on your body and appearance, in an attempt to follow the latest fashions, trends and styles? Well, you are not alone. For decades, women have suffered to look beautiful and modern, only to end up regretting it later.
Fortunately, new technologies and innovations in plastic surgery can repair what fashion has disfigured. Two of these new popular cosmetic surgeries are earlobe jobs and stiletto surgery. These procedures can help undo the damage caused by heavy earrings and sky-high heels.
Earlobe jobs may sound silly, but for any woman who likes long, dangling earrings, it’s a miracle. Heavy earrings pull down on the lobe, creating a stretched-out look or, in some cases, causing tears. Not only does the earring distract from the affected ear, it can even be painful. Many women find that they can’t even wear earrings if the problem becomes too severe.
There are a few different methods that help restore a stretched or torn earlobe. One that helps relieve pain is the use of an injectable filler. The substance is injected into the lobe, adding volume to loose skin. The results last up to a year and will provide a comfortable cushion, preventing the earlobe from sagging. The procedure costs only a few hundred dollars and the risks are minimal.
For more severe cases, a “pocket method” can often correct tears and excessive shedding. Cosmetic surgery basically removes the piercing opening. The hole where the ear was originally pierced is cut, and a “purse” knot is sutured to the top of the incision site, closing it. Helps the lobe return to its original shape and leaves no visible scars.
After a week, the stitches can be removed and the ears can be pierced again once fully healed. Next, you should avoid wearing heavy earrings, especially for long periods of time. Like using an injectable, there are few risks to this quick and inexpensive procedure. And if you take care of your earlobes afterwards, the effects will remain permanent.
If sky-high heels are more your style, then you’re probably used to the pain associated with the awkward position of your feet. Blisters, calluses, and sore muscles are common complaints from women who love their stiletto heels. If you can’t kick the habit, plastic surgery can help.
Some women go to the extreme and shorten their toes. A more common and less risky procedure is to add an injectable to the ball of the foot to create additional cushioning. Injectables can last three months to a year, are fairly inexpensive, and carry minimal risks. Toe shortening will require a longer recovery period and careful consideration of the possible complications that could arise.
You don’t have to let fashion trends weigh down your ears or wear out your feet. Cosmetic surgery options can allow you to sport your favorite styles without sacrificing personal comfort. If you’re considering earlobe or stylet surgery, research your doctors and weigh all the risks carefully before committing to a decision.
