I have to say I feel happy with myself,and I probably would not have anything done.If you weren't happy with yourself would you get plastic surgery?What would you have done?

I am very happy with myself. I would never get plastic surgery done on any part of my body. I don't see why many people decide to do so, because some of them don't really need it at all. I am more concerned about the long term effects of this procedure, more than I am about changing something on my body that I am not happy with.

It's expensive to have any cosmetic surgery done,it's better to be happy with yourself.I'm glad I never did anything to change myself that's permanent.

Hi cream: I agree with you, sometimes people look worst because they are obsessed on plastic surgeries. We have to learn to love ourselves, this is about self-steem and these type of clinical procedures don't give people self-steem. So some people look at themselves and look ugly and they don't understand that a plastic surgery won't make them happy. And what's worst is that it could have negative effects on their health. Thanks for your answer. ALVARO.

Hi Java: I don't think too much about this and in general I'm glad the way I am but I think I'd love to make me laser hair removal on my chest but I'm not sure if this can be considered as a Plastic Surgery: I would say that I'm not against these treatments if they don't cause any collateral problem on the person's that take this treatment health. Thanks for asking me this question. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

That counts for this discussion because it's something you would like to have done.for me if I had money I think I would like a face lift,because lately I don't feel happy with my appearance.I used to be happy with it,then my appearance changed.I let it go.I feel I want to fix myself up again.

I would consider it if I ever needed reconstructive surgery but, not as a purely cosmetic procedure.

If it were constructive surgery I would go through with it,but just for looks ,I like the way I am.Appearance don't metter.I've come to learn that when I got older.

for those who have money and if they are not contented to what they see in front of the mirror about themselves then i dont want to judge them, besides its their own money and they work hard for it. though lets also accept the fact that when the time comes and we become older theres really a big changes in our body that need to be change specially for woman for us to still look great, though some are already contented but in my case, if i have enough money nor if i have a lot of money then i will go for it coz i want to look great even if im still old like what other celebrity did. though i wouldnt change my face maybe just a face lift

After posting this discussion,I have to say I would want liposuction and a face lift done.I'm tired of being fat and my face is fat.I don't condem others for wanting to change something.

Hi Java09 I think most of us have something we would or would have liked to change about our bodies either in the past present or future. As for me I am no exception to this rule however I never thought about going under a knife to change any part of my body , first of all its expensive and I have a lot better things to do with my money than to spend it on plastic surgery. Also I am really afraid of the side effects these doctors make you sign some type of waiver regarding the surgery after its done so that you know first hand about the dangers of going under the knife. For vanity reasons I say no thanks but for life saving reason of course. I saw some programs on TV that showed some plastic surgery gone wrong and it didn't look pretty at all these women were deformed and had to get multiple surgeries to correct the bad surgery they had . I'm saying all plastic surgeons are bad but there are some who are just in it for the money and some don't even have a real license to practice cosmetic surgery. Another thing I don't understand is getting your lip injected with silicone or whatever it is they use to do it with , some of these people come out looking like fish they look ridiculous

I wouldn't get a lip injection,but if I had the money,I think I really would want my face done.I want my face to be thinner.My face is fat,I guess a face lift would fix it.I definately can't afford to do anything to myself so I'll be looking the same.

I think people should be happy with what they look like.Alot of people are way too much into what they look like.You are so right.

I've never really been happy with myself until the past few years but never considered plastic surgery. I always felt it would be an insult to my Creator to change the face and body He gave me. However, if I was disfigured I would probably consider it. I have no plans to cover up my wrinkles, age spots and so forth--they are more like badges of perseverance and tenacity than marks of age!

I have to say in the past I used to wish I could afford plastic surgery,because there were alot of things I didn't like about myself.Now,I have to say I feel satisfied because looks really don't matter.I'm happy with what God made me to be.I don't want to change anything he made.

I've lost a lot of weight since I was a younger woman and there are a few things that I would like to get done if we had the money to be able to afford it. I would love to have a tummy tuck (after losing a large amount of weight and also having had two children I could really use this one). The other thing that I would like to have done is to have the loose skin on my arms trimmed. I used to have very, very fat arms and now they aren't nearly as fat, but there is a lot of extra skin on their.

Something like that I would consider,because when someone looses alot of weight they usually have the extra skin.I would want that removed.anything other I feel happy with.

I have considered plastic surgery to have some scar reductions done. Two years ago I was in a serious car accident that required pins and plate to be put in both arms and one leg. I now have wide scars where the surgery was done. I only considered having it done because people stare when they see the scars. But then I get to thinking about it, why do I care what other people think about my scars. Those scars are my badges of honor as most people would not have survived what I went through. They have made me into the person I am today.

I think that scars,and markings that are never go away make people who they are,they make them special.Thats okay,evryone has a scar,of some sort,that never heals,and most people are happy with that.I to have scars that make me special.I don't care either what people think about me.I am sorry that you were in a car accident,that must have been awful.I am very happy with the way I look.
