Do you have dull or uneven skin? Consider the possibility of the cosmetic surgery method called "dermabrasion," in which the skin is literally "sanded down" until a new, healthy, pink layer of skin is reached. After a while, the skin will fade to its normal surface hue.

One way to get a healthy glow is to have a chemical peel of your skin done. While this type of cosmetic surgery does have its risks, it removes old, unsightly skin to reveal healthy new skin underneath. After a few weeks, you'll look much younger.

Before having cosmetic surgery done, consider the basics: can you afford it? Can you take the necessary time off work? Are you healthy enough? Can you be inactive for the amount of time it takes the surgery to heal? Can you handle potential complications?
