Dr. Kulick's Philosophy
A healthy level of self-esteem is
one of several factors which contribute to an emotionally satisfying
life. Having pride in one's physical appearance can affect this
level of self-esteem.
Sometimes, individuals may have cosmetic physical problems that
cause great personal concern. There may even be a disparity between
their own self-image - how they see themselves, and their body
image - how other people see them. A problem that is very troublesome
to a person, may seem insignificant to a friend or loved one.
When such a disparity in an individual's image exists, it can
often weaken that person's self-esteem, and lead to associated
frustration, anxiety or depression.
Corrective measures to bridge this gap between self-image
and body image can take several forms, both surgical and non-surgical.
Because cosmetic surgery is not a self-image panacea, Dr. Kulick
conducts a preliminary consultation to assess an individual's
need and motivation for surgery. Numerous physical conditions
can be significantly improved by cosmetic surgery. Even a relatively
minor procedure can ease the anxiety associated with a physical
condition. Once the patient and Dr. Kulick have a clear understanding
of the desired change, the procedure can then be planned.
Through cosmetic surgery, Dr. Kulick has helped many patients
overcome their physical concerns from birth defects, deformities
caused by injury, problems attributed to genetic structure,
and the effects of aging. In such cases, cosmetic surgery
provided a heightened level of self-esteem and an enhanced
quality of life.
Dr. Kulick is a recognized
