The goal of plastic surgery is to create balance and proportion as it creates a natural look, not an extreme one. Most people considering plastic surgery aren't interested in looking overdone.

Some people are willing to accept that they are going to be walking around with telltales that they've had plastic surgery, but most only want a few close friends or family members to know. They want a plastic surgeon who will keep them looking natural while touching up their appearance.

Because it's very hard to undo some of the surgical telltales, preventing and avoiding these problems is always the best approach.

Dr. Bass' delivers expert advice for how to avoid the "done" look and an overview of plastic surgery techniques meant to highlight natural beauty and simply combat aging, rather than making patients look like completely different people.
