Plastic surgery is an extremely personal decision, one that should be made with great care and consideration. Many Little Rock, AR, patients consider career makeovers, and wonder if plastic surgery can help them with job interviews. One of the most important things Little Rock plastic surgeon Suzanne Yee stresses to patients is that they should only undergo cosmetic surgery if they truly want it. In this blog post, we discuss if patients should get plastic surgery to help improve their workplace success and what makeover options are available. 

Non-Invasive Procedures

Non-invasive procedures include services such as injectables and laser skin treatments. These treatments are designed to make patients look more youthful and healthy. For example, if patients have developed lines between their brows or deep folds next to their mouth, they may appear tired or upset. Non-invasive procedures such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal fillers can address these cosmetic issues and improve one’s appearance during job interviews. In addition, laser skin resurfacing, photofacials, microneedling, professional skin care products, or laser tattoo removal may make you feel more comfortable about your appearance.

Facial Plastic Surgery

In some cases non-invasive procedures don't provide the results that patients desire. In these cases, patients may consider a facelift, eyelid surgery, or forehead surgery. Facial plastic surgery procedures like these can make patients look more fresh and ready for job interviews, in addition to improving their own self-confidence. By having more self-confidence during job interviews and video meetings, many job applicants and employees feel more confident about speaking up and joining the conversation because they feel more self-assured about their appearance.

Body Contouring

Body contouring procedures include services such as liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction at our Little Rock practice. When patients feel self-conscious about the appearance of their bodies, they may feel less inclined to accept positions that require them to be in-office, limiting their job opportunities. By undergoing body contouring surgery, patients can begin to feel better about their appearance, which can be projected during job interviews, video calls, and in-person meetings.

Your Industry

When considering plastic surgery, it is always important to take the industry that you work in into account. For example, certain jobs may warrant a more conservative approach to plastic surgery. On the other hand, in some industries, certain plastic surgery procedures can improve one’s situation. We can help you weigh these decisions during your consultation.
