Plastic Surgery

What is up with plastic surgery? Why do people think that plastic surgery will make them feel better about who they are? It seems strange to me that perfectly normal-looking people seek out plastic surgery to fix some perceived physical defect that no one else notices, or if they do notice, think nothing of. I know a man who spent thousands of dollars to get his jaw broken in a dozen places so his overbite could be eliminated and his jaw set more square. He did the procedure, looked like a fool for several months while his jaw healed, had to endure mass amounts of pain, and for what? When he was done healing, he looked the same as before. Quite possibly, he is the only person that could tell the difference in the mirror. Women are especially prone to fall for the song of the plastic surgery sirens...especially breast implants. I read an article in a psychological journal that noted that women who get breast implants are 2-3X as likely to commit suicide compared to women who do not get breast enlargements. I think many women think that plastic surgery will magically solve the perceived deformity, fix all of their relationship and social problems, and cause their sex life to explode off the charts. When the surgery fails to change their long-term personality defects, or problematic ways of interacting with others, they get depressed and hopeless about their futures. In other words, plastic surgery is not a quick fix, it will not solve all of your problems, and ofttimes is not even noticeable. Save your $4000 and buy something that will last, like a 10 megapixel Digital SLR camera... :)
