why plastic surgeory
It's not about what others think of how I look. It's about how I think I look. I think that half of Hollywood right now needs to fire their image consultants and eat a hamburger, so I definitely don't want to look like them.
I just want to be pretty in my own eyes. That's enough.
That said, if I'm pretty in my own eyes, self-confidence alone would probably cause others to think I am as well, which would definitely help with my as-of-yet-non-existant career.
Just remember, the important thing is your happiness. Beyond that, do whatever you're comfortable with.![]()
I'm 18.
*snicker*Its been my own personal experience that very few girls feel like they're pretty by their own standards. I really don't think surgery is the answer for most of them.
Way too young to be thinking about plastic surgery. You haven't finished growing and changing yet.
My advice? Stop watching plastic surgery shows and don't buy fashion magazines and beauty magazines. They're pretty much designed to make you feel bad about yourself.
I do think its a sad world we live in where we have girls that feel so bad about themselves they're willing to go under the knife for their idea of "perfection", and then we have these other people that are all like "you go girl!"

Other things to think about are the pain of surgery, plus the fact that you have to "maintain" some surgery. Breast implants, for example, have to constantly be maintained, it seems like alot of work. Plus, what are they gonna look and feel like when you're an old woman?

Do you know how you maintain implants?
If that seems like work to you, then....
...well it explains alot.

You have to, like, blow air through the nipples with your mouth for about an hour everyday.

Don't be so condescending, she's most likely thought it out, not to have someone tell her that she should stop feeling sorry for herself. Also think back when girls says they aren't pretty, did they really mean it or were they fishing for a complement?

I think you're confusing this with something else...

... but even if that's true, somebody's gotta do it. Might as well be you.
I think its irrisponsible to get plastic surgery when you're 18 because your body hasn't finished growing and changing. She's 18, and she wants plastic surgery because she wants to be an actress. Honestly, I think there are plenty of plastic surgeons in the UK that would say no to her for those 2 reasons.
And think about it. How many girls do you know that feel like they're pretty? If you really think about it, most girls, even if they're ****ing gorgeous, still feel insecure about how they look in some way. Its partly because of media and how its infected peoples' perseptions. And you have this "if it makes ya feel happy, do it" brigade, which aren't helping the situation.
The real, underlying issue is this. Why are we living in a society where so many young girls are insecure about themselves? Why are girls putting serious consideration into plastic surgery while they are still teenagers?
