597.0. "Perspectives on cosmetic plastic surgery" by CSC32::J_CHRISTIE (Celebrate Diversity) Thu Feb 04 1993 14:41

Cosmetic plastic surgery can have a profound effect on the quality of one's
life.

I'm not talking about reconstructive surgery where, after an accident,
there's an attempt to have someone's former features restored.  I'm
talking about changing one's appearance from that which came about naturally.

What part does vanity play?  Is cosmetic plastic surgery a good thing to do,
depending on the circumstances?

Peace,
Richard

    It is if you're a woman and take the "before and after" ads in the
    Sunday Boston Globe magazine seriously...
    
    I think an important question to ask is: who benefits (financially and 
    otherwise?) by making potential candidates for cosmetic surgery feel 
    it's a good thing to do?
