- Advances in anesthesia and surgical techniques have made cosmetic plastic
- surgery for adults over 50 safer than ever before. However there are
- important medical considerations that every mature adult who is considering
- aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery should be aware of. That is why the American
- Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) has developed safety guidelines
- for the over 50 patient. These guidelines, as well as other useful
- information about aesthetic surgery, are included in a new brochure, "Getting
- the Most Out of Life: Aesthetic Plastic Surgery for the Mature Adult". It
- describes some of the techniques used in facial rejuvenation, redefining
- facial features, and body contouring.
- If you are considering such surgery in the near future, information of
- this type can help you develop reasonable expectations for the outcome, and
- make you aware of some of the preparation and precautions to take as you
- deliberate your choices.
- The booklet is available free of charge to anyone who calls the toll free
- number, 1-800-635-0635, and requests a copy.
