Ideal beauty is determined by Greek statues like Venus, and
everything is a matter of proportion. Beauty has now been distorted, in my
opinion. There is a concept called the Golden Ratio and that is a
mathematical equation for beauty - how things that are considered beautiful
have certain patterns. Therefore, today, the concept of beauty is very
different.
If you look at Instagram, the Kardashian family, Nicki Minaj, they
don't fit the Golden Ratio. What is scary for people like me is when the
public thinks they are beautiful? Seriously, their bodies are
disproportionate.
When you are not proportional, it seems so grotesque. But now the grotesque image
is considered normal. Beauty is what we observe around
us. Because many celebrities show off through social media, people find it
normal. Once a patient came and said, "I want you to do a natural Breast Augmentation Surgery in Jaipur,"
then he took out a photo of Victoria Beckham. Have you ever seen Victoria
Beckham's breasts? Her breasts are clearly unnatural. Now I have
learned, when people say they want something natural, I have to ask what they
used to refer to as "natural".
Why don't you suggest a cheaper plastic
surgery procedure in Mexico City?
If you are looking for cheap plastic surgery, you will get "cheap"
results too. As simple as that. The problem with opals medical
tourism offered by some countries is not because of the poor skills of the
doctors. I can't say the best plastic surgeon lives in Canada. That
is ridiculous. There are good doctors in Brazil, China, Germany,
everywhere. The problem is you are going through something that you are
not good at, you don't know the condition of a city or place. So if you
want plastic surgery in the Caribbean, you can face things that are not
considered common in Canada - or vice versa.
The standard of care we have in Canada is different from other provinces,
between Canada and the US, between Canada and the Caribbean. So if you go
there and see a doctor, a clinic, you think everything is fine. In fact,
it might not be. For example, you find a specialist in plastic surgery in
the Caribbean, and there is an error in the procedure. Then you were
rushed to the hospital. Do you want to be treated at a local hospital
there, even though your regular hospital is here?
I have met patients who have undergone breast enlargement procedures in
Ukraine. The doctor injected foreign substances into her breasts, which in
the end I had to amputate. That is illegal in Canada. He is a
certified Plastic Surgery Doctor in Jaipur. In
his country, the procedure is normal and permissible. There is also an
awkward legal-medical aspect to discuss because it varies by country. In
Canada, there is a kind of state agency that oversees, so doctors must ensure
that all procedures go well.
When there are no similar standards in other
countries, the doctors don't care about you.
If something is wrong, the doctors don't care about fixing it back
and forth. They are not worried about the demands of malpractice. So
you should undergo plastic surgery in your country of residence. Don't be
interested in going to sandpaper to other countries where the standard of
medical services is different from what you understand.
As a doctor, you must tell them their
physical deficiencies. Then you give promises and care to rebuild their
bodies to be more beautiful. Do you think ...
Sorry, I cut your question. Not like that. So when people come to me,
they always come with problems. I will not tell you that they have
physical deficiencies here, there, and so on. If they ask, "What else
can I do?" My answer is, "I can do a lot, but what aspects of
appearance bother you?"
I could have told them to go through some sandpaper procedures, yet they would
obey. Neat I won't do it; I will not turn a patient into someone I
consider beautiful. I want to help you fix things that are
annoying. So, maybe there is another plastic surgeon doing what you say,
promising something to the patient. While I never tell people what a
pretty and ugly standard is. I often do BreastEnlargement Surgery in Jaipur and patients ask me, a good
size. Better this big, or less than this? I like which one? I
told them, it's not important that I like what they do. Because you are
the one who will look in the mirror, you must be happy. So choose the size
you like.
Do people who come here expect to be
"fixed" because they are not confident? Is plastic surgery
always triggered by self-confidence issues?
We did not discuss the matter of patient confidence. The problem is, in my
opinion, most of my patients have no confidence issues. There is no
patient who comes here and says "So, Doc, I feel my face and body are so
ugly. I'm depressed, I want to feel better."

There are occasional patients who say that, I try to invite them to
discuss. I would say, "Well, I can change your body. But I can't
change your mind. So if you have psychological problems, you come to the wrong
doctor. I'm not a psychological surgeon. I can change your body shape, but I
can't change the way you see yourself. "
