Plastic surgery remodels or restores the personality of an individual .Not long ago, a Plastic Surgery was considered by many to be reserved for movie stars and celebrities. Today, it is not just for the rich and famous.

Face-lift, a form of plastic surgery is one of the most well accepted and most frequently performed cosmetic procedures in the United States. A face-lift, technically known as a rhytidectomy is a procedure which gives more youthful appearance. It usually involves the removal of excess facial skin, with or without the tightening of underlying tissues, and the redraping of the skin on the patient's face and neck.

Facelifts are helpful for eliminating loose skin folds in the neck and laxity of tissues in the cheeks.A facelift requires skin incisions; however, the incisions in front of and behind the ear are usually inconspicuous. Hair loss in the portions of the incision within the hair-bearing scalp can rarely occur. In men, the sideburns can be pulled backwards and upwards, resulting in an unnatural appearance if appropriate techniques are not employed to address this issue.

Achieving a natural appearance following surgery in men can be more challenging due to their hair-bearing preauricular skin. In both men and women, one of the signs of having had a facelift can be an earlobe which is pulled forwards and/or distorted.

Also Hands are one of the first parts of the body to show signs of aging because they receive so much exposure. Sunlight, the elements and the natural aging process all contribute to the development of darkened spots, unsightly veins, wrinkles and fine lines, precancerous growths and loss of fatty tissue. Hand rejuvenation makes your hands look younger. It can be used to rid the hands of a skeletal look and reverse the signs of aging. A procedures which is used for Hand rejuvenation is Chemical peel which in a variety of forms can be used to produce a separation and peeling of the outer layers of the skin. The new skin beneath is smooth and practically blemish-free, with reduced fine lines, wrinkles, spots and sun damage.

Also the procedure that is used for Hand rejuvenation is Sclerotherapy that was developed in the 1920s. During the procedure a sclerosing solution is injected into the vein through a micro-needle. The tiny needles generally cause very little pain. The sclerosing solution causes the vein to blanch (turn white), then gradually disappear.

Today Tummy Tuck or abdominoplasty which flattens a protruding abdomen by tightening the muscles in the abdominal wall and removing excess fatty tissue and skin is also very popular. This surgical procedure is a common one and can benefit men and women who are bothered by a protruding abdomen. Patients whose weight has been stabilized in their weight loss program or who feel they are at their ideal weight are the best candidates for a tummy tuck. Many patients combine their tummy tuck with other cosmetic procedures such as liposuction, breast augmentation or breast reduction surgery.

A full tummy tuck involves an incision around the belly button and another incision that runs from hip to hip. The entire abdominal wall is tightened with permanent sutures, and the excess skin and fat is removed. A mini tummy tuck is usually performed in conjunction with liposuction of the upper abdomen and the flank areas.
