Surgeon Says Cosmetic Treatments Are Just One Component of Beautiful Results

    ORLANDO, FL, December 28, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- In light of recent natural cosmetic treatments making headlines, Dr. Kenrick Spence, among the leading plastic surgeons in Orlando, says he welcomes these options as a nice complement to popular surgical procedures. Dr. Spence is a board-certified plastic surgeon also offering non-surgical skincare solutions at his private practice, Hillcrest Aesthetic Institute, and he says he believes patients who utilize a comprehensive plan involving a variety of treatments achieve optimal aesthetic results.

"I often tell my Orlando facelift patients that maintaining a youthful look isn't just about surgery," Dr. Spence says. "While surgery is helpful for achieving a beautiful appearance, it doesn't take the place of taking good care of oneself. Eating well, exercising, and avoiding harmful activities such as smoking are just as important as cosmetic treatments for looking and feeling one's best."

Recent stories in the news have highlighted good personal habits for maintaining a youthful appearance. A report published in the Boston Globe even described acupuncture as an alternative to BOTOX Cosmetic. Although not all these procedures have proven cosmetic benefits, Dr. Spence says there's no harm in being proactive about one's health and appearance.

"Many people are taking a proactive approach to maintaining a beautiful appearance, meaning they are focused on eating well, taking vitamins, avoiding excessive sunlight, and so on," he says. "The results of these kinds of habits can then be enhanced with certain cosmetic procedures, depending on a patient's needs. This is why I tailor my services based on the patient and make recommendations accordingly. It is important for people to understand how cosmetic surgery can go hand-in-hand with other natural approaches."

Orlando plastic surgeons such as Dr. Spence offer multiple treatment options for those looking to improve their appearance. He regularly performs facial plastic surgery, body treatments, and skincare solutions for women and men of all ages. He also welcomes questions from patients about lifestyle habits or holistic treatments that they are curious about.

"We are committed to helping others feel and look their best," Dr. Spence says. "Meeting with a qualified medical professional is a great place to start one's skincare journey. Additionally, practicing good, healthy habits is key for enhancing the results of cosmetic procedures and for reducing recovery time. Good plastic surgeons are encouraged to see these stories and hear these kinds of questions from their patients."
