Do you think plastic surgery is okay? what age?

May I ask are you a lady or a gentleman

No I'm not against it, I suppose if it makes you feel better then so what!

Is it something you would definitely do later in life
?

If your face looks like a babybel that's melted, then solidified, then been used as target practice by a drunk man with an AK.

(Seriously though, something like a large birthmark, partially formed nose, harelip etc)

Haha, I'm a gentleman. I would definitely do it if I could afford it and not necessarily later -- I'd do it now if I could afford it. In my case, it has both a functional and cosmetic aspect but, even if I didn't have the functional problem, I really wouldn't give a damn. I'd have it done regardless.

I have always hated my mouth because my lips are big and positioned oddly (at least it seems that way to me), I probably don't have the guts to go under the knife because I would be terrified it might come out looking 100X worse. I honestly doubt I would ever do it! nor would I pay £2500 for it, that's a bit ridiculous.

But it seems like so many people do it, that's why I asked. So many women have breast augmentation and lip fillers, those things are slowly seeming 'normal'. Lots of men and women get nose jobs, it just seems like something that is starting to become the norm if you know what I mean. Again I definitely agree with the above, it is a side effect to our ever growing superficial society.But I don't think it's wrong.

This is something I feel very strongly about.

I am all for cosmetic surgery as long as it's done legally and in professional clinics by surgeons who know what they're doing.

As for the age side of it, I think it depends. For example.... If the size of someone's nose is getting them down to the point where they no longer want to look in the mirror anymore, then why shouldn't they be able to do something about i?

I don't think it should be called 'plastic surgery' either, because it's not plastic. Just cosmetic. For all you people saying you're totally against it, maybe when you're in your late 40's you will have a change of heart.

I know people who have had image issues and since cosmetic surgery they have become happier and love waking up in the mornings, why is that something that should be shamed?

If something is going to benefit you and your life, then you should do it. Nobody has to hate looking in the mirror.

And no I'm not talking about the odd "urgh I look awful today" I'm talking about people who can't face themselves due to a part of their body or face getting them down. Cosmetic surgery isn't done to impress others, it's done to boost confidence.

Some of you need to stop being so closed minded because one day it might be you booking an appointment!

Can I ask how old you are? What is it that you don't like about your nose?

I'm asking because you're the only person that has actually said yes you would.

As I'm writing this I'm thinking, surely his nose can't be as bad as he thinks, he shouldn't change it, lol and then I think back to my original post and talking about my mouth...we really are our own worst critics though as someone said above.

You play with the hand you're dealt with. You don't deliberately try to change the cards. Since the player will always remain the same.

I agree with everything you said but do you think you should only get it done if your at the point of not being able to look in the mirror, or do you think it's okay to have it done just to enhance your features, make you feel more beautiful (for yourself)?

No I don't think it's bad, what I think is bad is other people having the audacity to demand that someone never gets plastic surgery and stays absolutely unhappy with their current appearance.

Quite frankly if someone wants to have it, then by all means let them. Any age they f**** want over 18.

You said "at least it seems that way to me", which means you personally hate your lips no one has ever made any kind of rude remark about the size or positioning of your lips?

And there are cases of those that go under the knife, and it can turn into an unhealthy addiction for them, and they become victims, as a lot of people end up being unhappy with there results and just return again and again causing further damage to their facial features. Which should be a major concern considering we have this perfect image in our heads of what we want to we want to look like, but sometimes it's the imperfections that make us who we are and beautiful. Rather than altering them to fit societies agenda on what is and isn't acceptable in terms of physical beauty.

I got called blow job lips in school when I was younger by these horrible girls, then I got over it and realised it wasn't exactly a huge issue. I stopped caring tbh.

That's true, there are people who do it over and over again, that makes me sad. I like your paragraph

When I was in school, 'blow job lips' was a compliment. But I guess that was just the kind of girls I went to school with😂. But I always found that in school, everyone would bully the sweet pretty girl who's always quiet.

oh no it definitely wasn't a compliment, it was just a way to assert their superiority if you know what I mean. They aren't even that big, they are definitely not 'blow job lip' material, they just made me feel worse about them.I got over it because one of them used to be orange so I thought "well what does she know about appearances?" made me feel better

I'm 18. It's rather difficult to explain in words but basically: it's both large, horribly shaped and extremely deviated to one side -- it's very visible on the outside and it does look like one of those boxing injuries where the nose has basically turned to one side (even though I don't recall such a serious injury).

I've had various ENT doctors look at it because I have significant breathing problems because of it and I've been told that the visible deviation is actually only one part of it and that it deviates the opposite way near the top so it's subtly S-shaped.

Personally, I hate seeing this in pictures and I was frequently bullied for this in school, quite often by those self-righteous bastards who like to appease their conscience by calling themselves 'non-judgemental' in other circumstances. Point out the contradiction to them and you find out that it's okay because it's just 'banter' or 'ethnic banter.'

There's really no aspect of 'we're our own worst critics' to this. It really is that bad. :/ This is one of those topics where I consider most people to be prone to switching off their brains. I suspect it's the natural consequence of never having to think about these things oneself as most people (on this thread) don't.

Well you should of never felt bad about your appearance, you're attractive on the inside and out
