Three Ways to be Supportive of a Friend's Plastic Surgery

Having a plastic surgery procedure is a great way to improve one’s appearance and overall confidence. Because of this, It can be a very exciting time for a patient. However, because it is so life-altering, it can also be very scary. Many patients are nervous about how people will react when they see they have had plastic surgery. If you have a friend who has undergone a procedure, here are three ways to be supportive of their decision.

Don’t Ask

While you will probably have a litany of questions, try to avoid outright asking someone if they have had plastic surgery. Give them compliments about how they look and wait for them to initiate the conversation.
