Athletes And Plastic Surgery - Viable Or Not?:

Anna Kournikova is looking very toned and sexy these days. The trademark tubby body that we are used to seeing in female tennis stars has disappeared from the Russian bombshell’s body.

Anna may be a plastic surgery teetotaler though, as she looks just like she did when she made her debut on the tennis courts. Oh her weight did fluctuate over the years, but on the whole she looks the same. But there are athletes and sportsmen who have dabbled in plastic surgery and cosmetic enhancement from time to time.

There were the nasal strips that surfaced in the previous decade which promised to increase air intake for athletes. More often than not, plastic surgery among athletes tends to lean towards the reconstructive/corrective type.

Sportsmen and women who are actively into sports have been observed to display a condition called ‘athletic pubalgia’ or sports hernia which occurs in the area where the muscle meets the pevis. The problem can be effectively solved using endoscopic surgery techniques.

Athletes who engage themselves in high-performance sports compared to recreational sports have to consider carefully what cosmetic surgery procedure they want to have as they tend to stress their muscles more. You should contact a qualified plastic surgeon who will be able to check your suitability for plastic surgery.
