No one is perfect, but in today’s society, people are trying to be. Everyone has a physical flaw, real or perceived, that they want to change. This can be done but does that mean it should be?
It is a relatively simple matter to alter your nose, chin, lips, eyes, etc. However simple the procedure is it can be expensive and should not be done except for serious disfigurements and injuries.
In today’s society, everybody wants to be a size 0 and have the perfect Jessica Alba lips or Jessica Biel facial structure. But not everybody can look like a movie star, nor should they.
If someone chooses plastic surgery, you have to really trust the doctor to not make a mistake otherwise you will have to spend more money on corrective surgery. Unfortunately, this does happen to some.
For some who cosmetic surgery becomes an addiction to get every flaw fixed. Most celebrities and models today have had some kind of surgery even when they do not need to get something done. However, they are in the spotlight all the time and their job depends on what they look like. For example, Michael Jackson was infamous for having his nose reconstructed so many times that it did not even look like a nose. Heidi Montag, who is just 25-years-old, had 10 surgeries in one day.
In these cases the surgeries were pointless, but in cases like Isabelle Dinoire, the first face transplant patient, the procedure can be justified. It is just absurd to try and fix every minor physical flaw to satisfy insecurities. People need to accept themselves and others for who they are not who think they should be.
