We are more than just a combination of parts.
Not just heart plus brain plus skin.
Not breasts and womb.
Not arms plus legs plus belly plus back.
We are a whole, and can be whole if we’ll allow it to be so.
How many of us define ourselves by our compartments, or by the compartments we fill – job, spouse, parent?
Now, this may seem a weighty subject for a simple plastic surgeon running a blog talking about beauty. I can enhance certain parts, and that may change how others see you. But a bigger question is how you see yourself. Are you beautiful? Why do you think yes or no? What makes you so?
In reality I can change your proportions. I can nip or tuck here or there. But your real beauty is up to you. I’m just happy I’m allowed to be a part of the process.
