... You begin to explore your options and discover plastic surgery may be able to help your distress. ... Although the forced ideal of beauty that is created by society proves to be harmful to many people and is a major factor in the choice of plastic surgery; I believe Doctors should perform the surgeries because of their obligations to their patients, and because surgery can be a useful tool in providing security and self confidence.
This argument is not meant to be an attack on plastic surgery, which in many cases is a good tool to boost self-esteem. If someone can gain a new sense of confidence from a surgery, then it is good for him or her to be personally better off. ... The desire to become normal is one of the main causes for thousands of plastic surgeries. ... Plastic surgery is just one of the many ways to manipulate your image to fit the views of society. ...
When looking at plastic surgery we must look with a post-modernist perspective. Plastic surgeries are not performed because the individual has always been dissatisfied with his/her build, but because our culture places this feeling of dissatisfaction inside of the individual. ... The types of plastic surgeries that are done will always match the time period they are in. ... Of course the doctor is going to have a personal opinion about each individual’s need for surgery, but it is not up to the doctor to judge what the patient needs to become happy. As long as the doctor feels comfortable performing the surgery, then it is their duty to try to better the life of the patient. It is assumed that when entering the practice of cosmetic surgery the doctor realized the moral issues they would be coming in contact with day in and day out.
