Lexington, Kentucky is horse country. Not just ordinary horses, but Thoroughbred racing horses, the cream of the crop. Lexington has a country club lifestyle which means everyone who belongs is out on the golf courses, on the tennis courts, in the pools and on horseback at some point during the week. Sun and fun can damage skin and bones.
While Lexington is not L.A. or New York, the cosmetic surgery practiced in the city encompasses many different types of procedures. One of the most popular types is breast augmentation using either silicone or saline implants. On the reverse side of the coin, breast reduction is another popular form of cosmetic surgery.
Many cosmetic surgeons perform ‘body contouring’ or body sculpting. Liposuction, tummy tucks, weight reduction surgery, rhinoplasty, facial rejuvenation (chemical peels, dermabrasion, laser skin treatment, collagen or Botox injections) and other forms of cosmetic and plastic surgery are available throughout the city.
Not all plastic surgery performed in the city is for vanity reasons. Reconstructive surgery plays an important part of the plastic surgery performed on a daily basis. Plastic surgeons perform cosmetic dentistry, facial reconstruction and repair of severe birth defects almost as often as they perform a tummy tuck.
As with many other cities in the United States, the cosmetic surgery site is becoming more and more visible and more and more high-tech. It is either provided in a medical atmosphere in a mini-medical center or in an atmosphere of aroma therapy and other spa-like innovations. Procedures become less stressful with soothing music. More of these spa-type settings are popping up in the area, either at large malls or in the downtown business areas. What better way to spend your lunch hour than by getting a facial?
