Plastic surgery: not as good as they say it is

Women all around the world seem to be diving into the plastic surgery pool. It has become so popular that woman are treating surgeries more like a shopping trip than a procedure. Instead of buying a shirt, they are purchasing a new nose or pair of lips.
The craze has its benefits, I mean it has to or else it wouldn't be so popular. You can basically reverse the job of mother nature. You can pick out of a selected gene pool, and make your big nose small and pointed. It can also speed up a diet by simply not having to diet it all. The "tummy tuck" can now take care of that extra fat you don't want anymore. Plastic surgery gives women, and men, the opportunity to make themselves look better. At least they think they are making themselves look better, and I guess that is all that really matters. Plastic surgery can give people that confidence boost they always wanted.
With all of these advantages that plastic surgery offers, is it really worth all the hype? I think that plastic surgery may have it's benefits, but I don't think it is as good as people make it out to be. Sure plastic surgery can improve certain "problem" areas in your body, but I can never really change the way you feel about yourself. It could be argued that by having plastic surgery you are really diminishing your confidence because instead of finding the beauty in yourself, you are finding the beauty in what a doctor can turn you into. I'm not saying plastic surgery is bad by any means, but people make it out to be so important, that it becomes something much more than it is. It began as something to aid in reconstruction after trauma, then led to fixing slight imperfections, to now becoming a way of life for many men and women as they grow in age or grow tired of their look. I believe that plastic surgery is romanticized to a point where the goodness that once coincided with it has been lost.
