Got Addicted To Plastic
Surgery
Plastic Surgery.. I wonder how I got into it.
When I was 19 and had all the money in the world, I noticed that my
nose was a bit pointed. One of my friends suggested me to have a rhinoplasty
(nose job) done from a local surgeon, so i thought "why not give
it a go?" Then I had a nose job done from that doc. The thing
that surprises me now is I didn't even bother knowing if he was a
Board Certified Surgeon or not. Anyways it felt good to have a new
nose, it looked good on me. As time moved on, I got attracted to other
plastic surgery procedures too. I was growing my hips, tucking my
tummy and everything that I wanted to do and now, sad to say, I've
turned into a cosmetic surgery addict. Well I'm not alone in this
race. I studied about this addiction over the internet and found
that there are millions of other women who are addicted to cosmetic/plastic
surgery. Maybe it’s the shape of their nose, breasts, or even
calf muscles (or lack thereof) that they’d like to change.
Everybody wants to look beautiful, I don't blame myself but the
thing I forgot was "We can't look perfect" because there's
no such thing as perfect looking person. It's in the eyes of the
viewer how you look like. But the stats they never lie. Research
by Baaps released in May found there were 22,041 cosmetic operations
excluding Botox injections in Britain last year, up 35% on 2004.
These included 5,646 breast enlargements. Surgeons are getting richer
and patients are getting addicted. The addiction is due to the pshycological
impact that people (esp. women) have by looking at those celebrities
(who themselves have surgery to look good). In the hunger of looking
like a celebrity people dive into the pool of plastic surgery neglecting
the issues related, surgery gone wrong cases and without proper
study of the procedure.
The addiction is a chain process like in my case where it started
from Rhinoplasty and ended up in a liposuction (which I had last
week). One procedure which makes your certain body part beautiful
leads to the decision of another surgery procedure. The procedures
in demand are rhinoplasty, botox, tummy tuck, liposuction, face
lift, breast implant/augmentation/reduction, labiaplasty and so
on. Labiaplasty/Vaginoplasty is the recent name of the game. It's
how women make their vagina look good by reducing the size of their
labia and playing around with other sensitive skins around there.
Addiction is a consequence of dissatisfied surgery procedure also.
Say a case where some girl wanted to have a nose of Nicole Kidman
but she ended up having the nose of some ugly betty. An other reason
is AGING. Now when will women realize that cosmetic surgery can't
fight aging. YOU HAVE TO GROW OLD and those wrinkles are natural
but they're addicted towards BOTOX and they never stop doing it
over and over again.
Celebs need to find a place where they can throw money and this
is the best place. Sharon Osbourne, the television presenter, openly
said that she spent up to £300,000 on plastic surgery including
having her breasts, legs and bottom altered. Now that's a huge amount.
Cindy Jackson, 50, from London, has spent a reported £50,000
on nine operations involving 21 procedures since 1988, which she
documents on her website. She has had cheek implants and reshaped
her knees by using liposuction from her waist.
Dr Eileen Bradbury, a consultant psychologist at the Alexandra
hospital in Cheadle, near Manchester, treats patients who have become
hooked on cosmetic procedures. “People can become addicted
to the anticipation, the excitement and the attention they receive,”
said Bradbury. “There is a short-lived result of feeling fabulous.
But the post-procedure high fades, life goes back to normal and
all the mundane problems come back so you need to go for another
fix.”
I blog about all the Plastic surgery procedures and before and
after pictures. If you're having a major surgery, please study about
it before diving into the pool. You can read my blog and find many
other related websites on the internet. Don't make yourself look
ugly by having a bad plastic surgery.
