i think plastic surgery is an amazing gift. if you spend your entire life thinking you are ugly or not as good as someone else, you can change it.
people say you should just live with it, or change your way of thinking, or get used to it. but its not that easy. you are judged on your appearance no matter what. you cant change the way everyone thinks. sometimes its better to bend to the wind, rather than push against it.
i personally have never had anything done, but someday i am sure i will.
also- i think people use plastic surgery as a get out of jail free card too often. everyone has flaws, but everyone should not correct them. thats why i feel that it is important for plastic surgeons to have each patient have a psychological evaluation done prior to surgery. too bad thats not a requirement...
on the swan - this show is a disgrace to plastic surgery. all the doctors on it should be stripped of their licenses for pushing surgery on people who seriously need therapy on the outside rather than work on their outside.
