Comments on Medicalization of Female Beauty through Cosmetic Surgery

I really enjoyed reading your wiki page, it’s very cohesive, clean, well-organized and insightful. Plastic surgery is one of the most controversial topics nowadays since the demand for beauty grows every day. People become more and more addicted to it. I agree with the point that the more cosmetic procedures enable people to change their appearance the more it distorts social standards of beauty. Also, I like your point about “need vs. want” because I think it very important to differentiate those two when it comes to plastic surgery. However, I also agree that sometimes the want becomes a social need because as was said before societies perspectives of beauty are changing.
