PLASTIC SURGERY

Pro:

-when you’ve got an accident and are disfigured you could try to get back (nearly) your look before it back.

-when you’re inborn with something (e.g. a hair let): with a surgery you could have a more normal life

-when you’re ill (e.g. breast cancer) you’re able to rebuild parts of the body

-If you’ve got mental or physical problems with your look or get bullied because of it a surgery could help

-when you’re very unhappy with your looking, get discriminated and can’t live longer with your body surgeries could help.


Con:

-when you’re too young and still growing a plastic surgery could destroy your body or cause pain

-it’s becoming normal to have a plastic/cosmetic surgery, but you don’t think about the risks

-it’s dangerous too because there are too many incompetent surgeons who do a botched job

-often it’s just a waste of money (money could be used e.g. for poor people…)

-after a plastic surgery most of the patients have an unnatural look

-young people with surgeries might change their opinion about this decision when they’re older


Additional thoughts:

-plastic surgeries shouldn’t be that usual as nowadays

-people who consider a plastic/cosmetic surgery should be more sceptical

-society should change the meaning of beauty -old age should be accepted

-especially teenagers shouldn’t try to imitate their idols-more working places, more hospitals are built
