“Cosmetic surgery is great stuff (seriously),”

Yes, for burn victims and people with facial deformities.

But for normal people, I disagree. I’m thinking of actresses in their 70’s that are just horrible to look at. Dolly Parton comes to mind, among others.

This girl was only 14, and her body is just beginning to get the adult shape and will not fully develop until about 25. (based on life long observations) Cosmetic surgery never should have been an option for her until the age of consent.

We’ll have to disagree on that point.

If you think buying $150 tubes of creams that do nothing long-term from Este Laude is smarter than just getting the wrinkle removed through surgery...

I’ll ignore the whole “normal” nonsense.

From saggy old boobs, to a hanging belly for a mom, or after massive weight loss, plastic surgery offers a great way to improve ones image.

Today you still have some that look down at those that do this (you always have those that want to elevate themselves by trying to dunk others - you see this a lot in religion), but their numbers are dwindling regards plastic surgery. Often they are surrounded by folks that secretly had it done, even in their own family.

Plastic surgery has become “normal” (using your idea) and I would claim that makes a lot more sense than slapping oneself in the face endlessly to supposedly improve circulation and tighten the skin: https://www.tiktok.com/@vicki_belo/video/7181800081769647387

If you’re bald, the only real meaningful way to restore hair is through surgery. And you know what, some guy that gets a hair transplant and it makes him look better, good for him!

No, these people don’t suffer from low self esteem. They just look better with hair, they know it, I know it, you know it.

Do I think it’s healthy to make yourself into a cat? No. All this gender crap? No.

But these are not real arguments. I can find some extreme point of view or someone that takes something to far on nearly anything. There are people that hurt themselves by by giving themselves to many enemas, there are some hurt themselves with multivitamins, fad diets, that run/jog so much they end up with joint problems. Don’t attempt to use the exception to prove some rule.
