Is cosmetic surgery the key to happiness?!
Question:
Is cosmetic surgery the key to happiness?
It's becoming so popular in some countries that people can bear the pain to go through, not one but a series of operations.
What do you think - is the pain, cost and consequences worth it? Thanks!

Very difficult question. I had a breast augmentation 7 years ago as I had always been unhappy about them being non existent, and they really were. I only went up a size, paid for it after saving hard and did it for no-one but myself. I was happy with them but now I've had a child I think they need doing again. I think it's a slippery slope now to be honest as there are other procedures I would consider. I wouldn't say I'm insecure, but wanting to improve on things that probably don't need improving. In my opinion it is not the key to happiness, it is a short term fix to deeper rooted problems with self esteem. However, if it is to correct or reconstruct, ie for cancer and accident patients, in that case, it can be fantastic. I think counselling prior to any procedure is a very good idea.
