Boosting Your Career Through Plastic Surgery

We found this article from another plastic surgeon who controversially claims that eye lifts, face lifts and liposuction can boost your career.  We’re not saying that plastic surgery can or cannot help you move up the corporate ladder in your career, but we found this article interesting enough that we thought we’d share it with you all.


By Dr. Afschin Ghofrani, GulfBusiness.com, find the original article here.

Beauty sells. It’s a truth that not all of us are willing to accept. We are attracted to the attractive, and not just when it comes to affairs of the heart.

As a plastic surgeon with 22 years of experience, having performed more than 30,000 procedures, I have come to see a growing trend in people consulting me in order to improve their appearance, especially for their professional career.

A corporate personality needs the corporate look, and as younger executives fire themselves up the career ladder, those in their mid-forties are looking at themselves more critically and choosing to enhance their appearance in order to compete.

There is no male/female divide on this. Both executive men and women over 40 years of age are requesting treatments at my clinic – whether that is a lid lift, face lift, or a lipofilling of the face. The procedures vary, but the desired result is the same – to look good and to look younger.

There is a lot of research on this and it is a proven fact that beauty sells.

A Yale study found that, in the US in particular, good-looking workers earn a lifetime total of $230,000 more than those with below-average looks, while attractive men earn nine per cent more than unattractive men.

In an article for the December 2011 issue of Psychological Science, Margaret E. Ormiston, assistant professor of organisational behaviour at London Business School, along with Elaine M. Wong and Michael P. Haselhuhn of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, examined pictures of CEOs and found that there was a correlation between performance and facial structure.

Their article, ‘A face only an investor could love: CEOs’ facial structure predicts their firms’ financial performance’, showed that CEOs with wider faces have better-performing companies than CEOs who have longer faces.

The 2011 book Beauty Pays: Why Attractive People Are More Successful, written by Daniel Hamermesh, an economist at the University of Texas, says that attractive people are hired sooner, get promotions more quickly, and tend to achieve higher ranking in their companies.

For Hamermesh, it is less about the looks but more about the fact that attractive people have higher self-esteem.

In Dubai, executives are seeing that having a small procedure to improve their appearance can help them a lot to boost their self-confidence and garner professional growth.

Recently, I had a patient who was doing really well in her sales career. Then, she began to notice that her boss was not sending her out to meet with clients as often. Since the product they were selling was targeting the youth, her boss told her that it was important for the firm to present a youthful image.

We performed an aesthetic procedure to improve her appearance and as a result she not only looked more attractive but also more dynamic and self-confident. Eventually those improvements led to a recovery of her previous sales performance and standing in the company.

Appearance sells and this is the reason why more and more executives and top sales people consider plastic surgery treatments.

Dr. Afschin Ghofrani is a German board plastic/aesthetic surgeon and hand surgeon. He is the owner and medical director of the Aestheticon Clinic in JLT Dubai. For more information, visit www.aestheticon.ae

Can I finance my plastic surgery procedure?

Currently we accept cash, check, Visa, Mastercard or Discover as methods of payment.  We do not offer financing of procedures at the moment.  However, we do accept CareCredit which works like a “medical credit card” that can be used for a number of cosmetic procedures including cosmetic surgery, BOTOX, fillers, skin care products and more.  More information about CareCredit can be found on their website here.

There are also many other lenders that are available who offer financing for certain medical procedures.  You can obtain more information during your consultation with Dr. Tarola or contact us at 615-624-8914.

Do’s and Don’ts for Plastic Surgery

Do’s:

1. Research your doctor
  • Does your doctor perform a lot of these procedures?
  • Is your doctor a board certified plastic surgeon?
  • Ask to see your doctors results from previous procedures they’ve done.
  • Meet with your doctors patients
  • Confirm that your doctors facility is accredited
2. Have realistic goals
  • Realize that this is a serious decision and as with any surgery, there could be potential complications
Don’ts:

1. DO NOT rush into any procedure
  • Make sure the procedure you’re wanting is right for you
  • Clarify your surgery goals
  • Ask all of your questions PRIOR to getting your surgery
  • Make sure you know exactly what you’re getting into
2. Don’t undergo surgery for the wrong reasons
  • Do the surgery for yourself, not for any other person or any other reason.  Make sure it’s what YOU want and not your significant other, friends or family want.
  • Don’t expect surgery to change your entire life; do it to make you feel better about yourself
3. Avoid requesting unnatural results/procedures
  • Many doctors may be willing to perform a procedure that should not be done on your body simply to make money, or to give you a look that THEY think is right
  • Be realistic about your natural body type, the one you were born with. If you are a petite, five-foot tall woman, be wary of a doctor who believes you should be getting size D implants
4. Don’t let cost determine which surgeon you choose
  • It’s been said that you get what you pay for with aesthetic surgery.  Don’t learn that lesson the hard way!

Congratulations Dad!!

I wanted to share an interview of my father that was recently published in a well-known chiropractic journal. He was asked to do the interview because he is the first chiropractor in the country to have his practice acquired by a hospital organization. Although hospital acquisition of medical practices of every specialty is nothing new within the medical field, and actually quite common, never before has a chiropractic practice been bought out by a hospital. Twenty years ago, such a relationship would have been unimaginable, as chiropractors were looked down upon by medical doctors. I have seen a significant change in physicians’ opinions of chiropractors over my lifetime, and it is due to the diligence, integrity and pursuit of perfection of people like my father. He has been my greatest role model throughout my life and almost everything I know about what it takes to be a good physician I learned from him. So, it came as no surprise to me when I first heard the news that my dad was the first to be bestowed with this honor. I am extremely proud of him. Every physician/practitioner should read this article.

CONGRATS DAD!! I’m so proud of you!
