Plastic surgery is dangerous

I think when plastic surgery is done for the purpose of cosmetic enhancement then I m completely against it. People should be comfortable in their own skin. We never hear animals changing their skins or fur, so why don’t the humans feel comfortable with  how they look. I thought humans were higher up in hierarchy of intelligence. A major influence is due to the glamorous Hollywood. People want to copy the features of the celebrities that they are ready to spend thousands of dollars to create the perfect image of their self. But Hollywood is often wrong and misleading and should never be look upon as a role model. Even after people spend the big buck on their look they are still not happy, then they go for more procedures leading to addiction to plastic surgery. Resulting in disfiguration of their face.  People only realise that plastic surgery is not the best option is after they have spent huge amount of money and they are still not satisfied with their looks. The only time plastic surgery should be considered is when it is done to restore a person’s looks. Often disfigured people don’t fit in the society as they feel they will be looked down on, they feel they might not be accepted in the society.  Reconstructive surgery in not only done to restore your looks it is also done to remove tumours. So not all plastic surgeries are bad. But what is I think the problem is, the desire to look like Barbie. Many young girls want to look like dolls and they want to do that at any cost even if it means going under the knife.
If plastic surgery can go so wrong for celebrities, who can afford to have the best surgeons in the world, then it can definitely go wrong for us commoners.
