My View on Plastic Surgery

With the rapid development of orthopedic technology and the change of the social attitude and understanding to the beauty, application of the plastic surgery has been become more and more popular.

Like many other fashionable trends, this time plastic surgery is no exception to draw the debate and some question about it, “whether it’s worth to increase your appearance by spending a considerable amount of money while suffering the physical torture?”
Some will give you an affirmative assurance. Plastic surgery makes them closer to the perfect image they incline to demonstrate, thus it will build up their confidence and lend colors to their personality. With the colorful hair striking as a torch, whiten teeth shining as the moon, the body type under the Golden Ratio, people will definitely be the special one among the ordinary people. People are more beautiful and special just because one self’s own judgment. They also hope other people will share the same aesthetic idea, though it will not always be possible.

In the mean time, the conservative side doubts the behavior of plastic surgery. And they think the people who modify their body physically misunderstand the essence of beauty, namely truthfulness, honesty, courage, loyalty and so on. Many people may neglect fundamental importance of shaping a strong character and purifying the heart. Otherwise, the human society will be no difference to the animal world where a population is normally dominated by a figure that has the most beautiful feather or the most powerful muscle.

Ironically, now comes a new study that being good-looking directly increases that you’ll make a lot of money on the job, compared to the people who aren’t attractive. However, being well-educated still carries more weight than appearance in determining success at work even the happiness of one self’s life. Of course it helps to guide ourself toward good grooming and clothing choices, to help us make the most of what we have.

So in my personal perspective, moderate plastic surgery is acceptable. But you have to balance it, there’s no need to indulge oneself to it and care too much about your appearance. Indeed, we are not judged by the face but by the content of our character.
