Every summer, there is a peak in visits to plastic surgery clinics, and many children try to adjust their image quickly, taking advantage of two months of leave。
Adolescence's pursuit of beauty is not a bad thing per se, but it is likely that, if stepped on into the cognitive error zone, “the beauty did not catch up and hurt herself first”。
What are the most vulnerable areas of error for young people to be treated? How exactly should we look at the medical plastic surgery

Four major faults for adolescent health
Mistake one: the younger you are, the faster you recover。
Many feel that young people are embroiled in metabolism, and their wounds heal quickly and their scars fade. From a medical professional point of view, however, plastic surgery may not be as early as possible. The bones, nose bones, facial soft tissues, body sizes of the skull are largely not shaped until around the age of 18, and part of the face structure continues to grow until the age of 22。
The minor's face is also in the process of “slowly growing” dynamics, during which he undergoes eye-skin, nose-liding, contour surgery, which amounts to artificial disruption of the normal growth rhythm. As the bones continue to develop, there is a high risk of dyslexia, asymmetrical eyes and imbalance in the ratio of five officials, often leading to multiple repairs, and traumas tend to pile up and even leave a permanent legacy。
Mistake two: red with windnet。
Many young people have yet to develop a stable aesthetic outlook, and see the internet-populated faces of stars or net-red faces want to be reproduced in their entirety, regardless of their own bone base, five official ratios and personal qualities. The plastic surgery is not a fluid line, and the facial bones, soft tissue conditions and body size ratios are unique。
At the heart of the medical plastics is the fact that they are humanly different and harmonious, blindly pursuing a one-size-fits-all web-red effect, which can undermine the physical balance of the face, and may eventually lead to facial inflexibility, loss of personal recognition and even functional impairment。
Mistake iii: there is no security risk to micro-orthopaedics。
Many people feel that a thin-faced needle, a perureic acid filling, and a photogenic skin are equivalent to “advanced care”, which is not an operation and is not risky. They may be attracted to “low prices”, choosing beauty salons without formal qualifications, private studios, which are the source of the high incidence of adolescent health accidents。
Teenage skin barriers are so tender that they are too early and frequent to do skin and pv projects, which can easily damage the angular layer and create a state of perusal sensitivity. Every year, we receive many complications due to injection-level deviations, inappropriate dosage control and irregular consumption of materials, including angiogenesis, skin damage, stiff facials, etc。
It is particularly important to recall that all medical practices are essentially medical in nature, and that “small projects” that do not involve zero risk must be consulted and operated by regular medical institutions with the appropriate qualifications。
Mistake four: a change in beauty can solve all life problems。
Today, physical anxiety is becoming more widespread, and many children blame themselves for social frustration, lack of self-confidence, emotional fatigue, and feel that as long as the five are refined, all problems will be solved。
In fact, the root causes of these problems are not physical. Integration can only change externality, personality and inner capacity. Some children have found that the transformation of beauty has not addressed their core concerns, but has become more anxious because they have not met their ideal expectations and have even been caught in a vicious circle of “unsatisfied and repaired” that has seriously affected their physical and mental health and delayed their schooling。
Choose the right timing, rational guidance
How can we properly view and choose the young person's plasticization after these errors have been clarified? The core can be summarized as two points。
One is to choose the right time, at the right age, to do the right plasticization。
Prosthetic surgery is broadly divided into two broad categories: prosthetic and cosmetic. The timing of the operation should be determined by the condition, not by age, if the central purpose of the operation is to correct the malformation, restore the function of the organ and ensure healthy growth in order to treat the disease and restore its function. Early intervention should be undertaken with the assessment of a regular hospital and the consent of the guardian. For example, congenital hypothermia and small ear malformations can have an impact on vision and hearing development, which cannot wait until 18 years of age, and the sooner the correction is better than functional recovery。
We suggest that we consider this at the age of 18。
Second, parents need to be guided rationally, not to cause regret。
Adolescent children are at a renegade stage, and many of them have the idea of plasticization, which, if strongly opposed by their parents, can sneak out to informal institutions and lead to risks that are completely uncontrollable。
We have seen a number of deplorable cases at work, in which girls go to an incompetent beauty salon and do what they call “silica injections”. Within a short period of time, there were repeated swelling, infections and even skin breakdowns in the nose. Later, the parents came to us with her, and after a number of creative and repair operations, the infection was barely contained, but the scar on the nose eventually became a lifelong regret。
Parents are reluctant to push hard for their children's beauty. The right approach is to communicate with the children, understand their true demands, and take them to regular hospitals for consultations, where the risks and the right time are studied by professional doctors. Proper beauty surgery does add value to the image, provided that the right timing, the right institutions and the right scales are not blind。
In short, behind the summer youth plastic heat is the desire of young people for a better image. Love beauty is human nature and the pursuit of a better image is not wrong in itself, but for young people who are growing up, it is more important than “better beauty” to develop a healthy aesthetics。
Never before has beauty been a uniform standard answer, respect for body growth patterns, proper skin protection, orthotics, adherence to movement, and the upgrading of inner air, brought about a more lasting sense of beauty and bottom。
May every child grow up in a safe manner and become a better and better self。
