Nip/Tuck

Cosmetic surgery has been around for centuries and is have never been more popular than now to have just a little procedure done to make oneself feel good. This form of surgery started out as corrective surgery for war veterans, who had been disfigured by scars and other injuries, so that they could better reintegrate themselves into society. However, as the technology developed, so did the interest in the aesthetic form of surgery, especially among women. Most women wanted to just fix little things to make themselves look better overall but even that little desire to want to be perfect, even after hard work to fix it manually, has morphed into something ugly, for some people. One of my favorite shows to watch is Nip/Tuck. I love the drama and I love all of the story lines, no matter how ridiculous they have gotten over the years. But most importantly, I love watching the parts of the surgery that are shown on television. To be perfectly honest, when I became interested in the medical field, I wanted to be a plastic surgeon. There are reasons why I'm not going to medical school, but that is neither here nor there. I think it is a person's right to want to have plastic surgery. Who am I to stop someone from doing something that makes them feel better about themselves? I think there are certain instances that are certainly more legitimate than other reasons, but that is a doctor's job to tell their patients that they are going overboard. I really enjoyed the talk by the cosmetic medicine doctor (can't think of her name right now). The type of medicine she practiced would be something I would be interested in. In conclusion, I think that God made each and every one in His likeness and we should be happy about that, but He also gave us free will, so if someone is going to change themselves for what they think is better, I am not a judge and neither is the rest of society.
