Plastic Surgery is big business. And not exactly cheap either. For me, plastic surgery may be a necessity following a mishap where the person has been disfigured or requires surgery to hide certain laceration or operational scars. I have come across many cases involving road accident victims where their faces or limbs have been disfigured or scarred - mostly permanent. Some of the victims are young and these scars will remain with them for the rest of their lives.

Nowadays, plastic surgery is also associated with wanting to look good or to preserve one's youthfulness. It is a billion dollar industry and more and more plastic surgery centres are sprouting around the world. In Beverly Hills, California, Los Angeles Plastic Surgery is one such center which offers plastic surgery with promises of the highest standards in taste and service. Some of the services provided include Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty, Liposuction, Breast Augmentation, Facelift, Eyelid surgery, Browlift and nose reshaping.

Frankly, I don't know why people resort to these kind of plastic surgery as I believe it is a waste of time. However, I guess it serves these people's needs - which are to look good and to enhance their lifestyle. Whether it will ultimately bring them happiness is for the individuals to experience for themselves. One just needs to look at Michael Jackson and see what a mess he has done to his face.
