Interpersonal relations at the time of cosmetic surgery

After cosmetic surgery many patients may experience a sense of liberation and freedom in their relationships with other people. It is not surprising that after living with what is perceived as an unattractive characteristic for most of their life some patients experience less inhibition.

For many this may involve behaviour which they are emotionally unable to handle. In some cases this may involve promiscuous sexual behaviour or rebound marriages.

As time passes most patients behaviour will moderate and they will learn to adapt to their new appearance and how it affects their behaviour.

In the meantime, it is wise for patients in this situation to realize that there is nothing wrong with trying new things, but they should not commit to long-term decisions or do anything rash

They should realize that they are in the process of learning about themselves and other people and this can take many months
