With any big, life altering decision, the first step is simply acknowledging, “Yes, I’m thinking about it.” Really, that goes for just about anything, right? A road trip across America – thinking about it. Proposing to your would-be better half – thinking about it. Taking a new job – thinking about it. The first part of any decision is pondering whether or not it actually makes sense. That goes for choosing to have a cosmetic procedure or surgery, as well. So!
