NO PLASTICS NEEDED??
Many people don't need plastic surgery. Some people prefer to get it even if it's not really medically necessary. Others don't need it or want it. I don't want it. I don't think I need it, and I prefer not to have unnecessary surgery.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
The overwhelming majority of us have enough skin to warrant plastic surgery. I have been around a lot of post-ops in real life. From personal observation my guess would be over 80%.
