If you’re
considering plastic surgery, there’s an app for that. Anyone who is looking
into rhinoplasty (a nose job) or liposuction naturally wants to know how
they’ll look when the surgery is complete and new technologies and iPhone apps
are making it easier than ever for patients to access information about the
procedures they’re looking into as well as visually manipulate photos of
themselves to see how they’ll look after plastic surgery.
BodyPlastika.com
is one of the coolest new iPhone tools that can help patients get an idea of
how they’ll look following a breast augmentation or a tummy tuck. This app
gives patients the power to construct their ideal image via the iPhone and
communicate more clearly about their desires and expectations with their
plastic surgeon. BodyPlastika is not yet widely available but it’s getting
ready to hit the market soon.
If you’re
looking for iPhone apps that are already widely available, then consider
iSurgeon or Shafer Plastic Surgery apps. The iSurgeon app was developed by Dr.
Micheal Salzhauer to give patients the opportunity to change images and do
breast enhancements, lip augmentation, butt lifts, tummy tucks, and other
procedures using the tool. The app can be purchased exclusively through the
iTunes store, but the web site for iSurgeon is at http://www.iSurgeonGame.com.
The Shafer
Plastic Surgery app, in contrast, is less game-like and more intellectual. It
is geared toward patients who are information-seekers. It contains a database
of over 1,000 questions and answers about cosmetic surgery procedures.
