Plastic surgery

Plastic surgery is a medical specialty concerned with the correction or restoration of form and function. Though cosmetic or aesthetic surgery is the best-known kind of plastic surgery. Most plastic surgery is not cosmetic, because it  includes many types of reconstructive surgery, hand surgery, microsurgery, and the treatment of burns. 

With increased media attention on beauty and perfection, celebrities and those alike are turning to plastic surgery more and more. Some take out loans for this purpose; one woman spent over $83,000 for 14 surgeries. Though media and advertising do play a large role in influencing many people's lives. Researchers believe that plastic surgery obsession is linked to psychological disorders. Body dysmorphic disorder is seen as playing a large role in the lives of those who are obsessed with going under the knife in order to achieve physical perfection. That is why I was disappointed in plastic surgery.

But...you know, I have my favorite soap-opera “Nip Tuck”. It is an American drama and it focuses on two surgeons: womanizer Christian Troy and a family guy Sean McNamara. I remember many cases of their plastic surgery practice, because the name of every episode is the name of their patient. But I will tell you about the kind one. There was a guy with Down syndrome, so he came to McNamara/Troy clinic and asked doctors to have a strong resemblance to his family, in other words to be like his dad or brother. So as you can imagine, surgeons don’t know how to make him normal. So they looked at photos and then make a little crook on his nose, because his brother and sister inherited it from their father. So he was very happy and I totally agree that it was a good idea.

I believe that it is important to make an operation for people who need help of the plastic surgeon, but not for people who obsessed with their body or face. In my opinion nature made us beautiful but some people decided that they are Gods and they can change what nature has done. In other words if somebody wants to correct their body they can be engaged in physical culture. Moreover do not smoke or drink a lot and you will always look fresh and young! =)
