Dealing With Violence, Frayed Relations And Black Eyes:

Domestic violence, in spite of the progress made by the human mind, is a harsh reality that more often than not is kept under wraps. It can be recognized from a pattern of dominating and aggressive behavior demonstrated by an adult towards another.

In the United States alone, as many as 4 million women are known to suffer each year from violence in a relationship. While women are majority of the recipients of abuse in a relationship, homosexuals, bisexuals, transgender individuals and at times even men are known to face similar abuse.

The numbers are staggering, but the scars left from such abuse are horrifying to say the least. The remnants of such behavior could leave scars that may be sexual, physical, psychological or emotional in nature and could also involve financial manipulation.

So far, women’s groups have been the primary protectors of those who are suffering or are facing domestic violence. This is thankfully changing now, thanks to the intervention from religious organizations and medical professionals.

Cosmetic surgery specialists have been especially forward in helping women who have faced physical violence at the hands of their mates. Using reconstructive plastic surgery, patients have found succor for their damaged facial tissues and nerves, burns scars on the body and similar ravages.

If you have been at the receiving end of domestic violence, you can come to the Plastic Surgery Institute of California for help and healing. We perform reconstructive eyelid surgery and face surgery and can help you win back your personal integrity and self-worth.
