After many years, plastic surgery is no longer restricted to the rich and famous. It is now accessible to everyone around the world. Many turn to plastic surgery to perfect imperfections such as having a nose job or having their breasts enlarged. For many, plastic surgery is the easy way out when people are suffering from self esteem issues.
Plastic surgery can also become an addiction. Starting with a simple nip and tuck for many people it does not stop there. Once they have perfected one flaw, they begin to find new flaws with themselves which they think need to be perfected. This in turn leads them to have more plastic surgery. Plastic surgery is an expensive process to continuously undergo. Due to this is will strain the person’s financial resources and if the person has a family, this will also put a strain on the family’s resources available.
As with everything, the media continuously bombards society with image of `perfect` celebrities who have the perfect body. These bodies are achieved through plastic surgery and when the benefits are seen by the ordinary people, they too want to achieve the look of perfection. But as with everything, plastic surgery comes with health risks of its own. With plastic surgery there is always the risk of catching infections that may in some cases lead to death.
In my opinion, plastic surgery should only be used for reconstruction purposes such as covering a scar that is distasteful. It should not be used for cosmetic purposes such as liposuction, nose jobs etc. as I believe people should be happy with who they are and not change themselves because of what other people think of them or what the media says they should look like.
