Cosmetic Surgery

Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive
soul to tears." – Poe

Plastic surgery procedures include cosmetic enhancements as well as functionally reconstructive operations. The word "plastic" derives from the Greek plastikos meaning to shape or mold. Whether a patient is consulting with a plastic surgeon for reconstructive or cosmetic purposes they usually do so because they perceive that there is a discrepancy between their actual physical appearance and their ideal physical appearance. An insightful, skilled surgeon can appreciate the patient's view of their ideal, and also recognize how to achieve it by revealing and enhancing the patient's natural beauty. The right surgeon can not only narrow the gap between reality and ideal, but in many instances can make a patient's ideal vision of herself a reality.

Patients should understand that plastic surgery is part medicine, and part artistry. They should select their surgeon based not only on their qualifications, but upon their body of work, eye for beauty, and shared vision. The best plastic surgeons not only know the ideal form of beauty, but know how to make it a reality for you. They know, before they begin any procedure, exactly what your goal is and how to obtain it.

A famous plastic surgeon once wrote "true beauty arouses the senses to an emotional level of pleasure." Dr. Green's firm belief is that a plastic surgeon's greatest reward is the satisfaction that comes from collaborating with his patients to develop the best possible results. Through cosmetic surgery you can enhance your appearance, your sense of personal beauty and your confidence. With the right surgeon you can obtain pleasing and lasting results as you look and feel truly beautiful.
