Have you ever considered altering your appearance through plastic surgery?

Question

Hello there! I am an admin on a page dedicated to women in the performing art world. I have recently been writing about women and plastic surgery, and the role it has on young women. Of course plastic surgery has a positive side to it: breast reconstruction, skin grafts for burn victims, and when done responsibly, it gives people an added sense of confidence. 
However... it can also perpetuate unrealistic beauty standards and cause self esteem issues for teen girls, and women. It seems it has become an even larger problem with social media, and growing platforms. It's almost impossible to scroll through Instagram without seeing plastic surgery pages, and photoshopped pictures. 
I'd like to hear from other women!! What do you think about plastic surgery, and it's role in our society?? Have you ever considered changing your appearance? 
Thank you in advance!!

Answer

I think plastic surgery is a useful but overused tool in society today. It can help people who have health issues due to their bodies become cured, and can also help those who have severe mental issues with their bodies feel better about themselves. When I was younger (before I had gone through puberty) I was convinced that I would get both a nose and boob job when I was older, because I hated my huge nose and my tiny boobs. Now, I feel much more confident with my body, and would not consider plastic surgery again.

Answer

I'll probably get my breasts done at some point. I wouldn't get them very big, I'd just like to have them proportionate to my body. I barely filled a 32B before I got pregnant, but I'm much thicker in my legs and butt. It would be nice to fill out a bathing suit top. I love my body the way it is though, I just think I'd feel more womanly. I'd also get veneers or crowns, because I've always hated my teeth. I have thin enamel and am prone to cavities, and I have small teeth. Getting my teeth fixed would improve my confidence and allow me to feel good about my smile. No shame in tweaking as long as you love yourself and see yourself as beautiful BEFORE you get any work done.

Answer

I always looked at plastic surgery as reconstructive: after an accident/ illness etc
Although it can help women feel good about their appearances: getting them boobilocious...but is risky and people do not understand that!

Answer

Yes, I actually plan on getting a breast lift in the future.

I feel that if someone would feel better with themselves, they should be able to do what they want as long as they aren't harming anyone else. ♡

Answer

I have, when I was 8. My ears used to stick out so I got surgery to pin them down more. I would do it again if I had to. I was only 8 and got bullied and my confidence was not very high and my parents could tell. People should be able to do what they want, it's their bodies. However people should also realize that those girls with the huge butt and huge boobs with a skinny waist are often not realistic, even though people think they are.

Answer

I think if you really want to change, and you know it'll make you feel better, go ahead and do it! I personally wouldn't. I was born with these features and will live with them.

Answer

I want to get my boobs done in the future.
