A History of Independence

The July 4th holiday is just about upon us and we wish you a happy one!

Yes, it's Independence Day here in Southern California and perhaps the first really big weekend of summer bikini season.

On the surface, it's true that the spending time this time of year hanging out in the surf and sun might seem more related to our style of superb Beverly Hills plastic surgery than American History 101. At the same time, we really think that many people who come to board-certified plastic surgeons like ourselves are very much part of the spirit of this day.

We really don't think it's that much of a stretch to connect our work at We Know Beauty to the same American tradition of independence from outmoded conventions and mores that led the 13 original U.S. colonies to declare themselves free of the domination of England's King George III. After all, at one time it might have been deemed in some way heretical to try and improve upon the appearance we were born with.

In a more deeply personal sense, however, for better or worse we tend to think of our "natural" appearance as somehow connected with who we really are. Whether we're departing from that template with a breast augmentation or a rhinoplasty in Beverly Hills, we really are declaring some independence from our past selves. Most of the time, that's not a bad thing.

If you'd like to celebrate your independence with the finest in cosmetic surgery, We Know Beauty is here to help. Just call us at 310-300-1500.
