Possibly if it was something that I could afford and would not take away finacially from anything more important. My mom had a tummy tuck and ****** implants after four children. At first I thought she was crazy and it bothered me, but now I can understand why she did it. She just wanted to have her old body back and feel better about herself. She kept it all very modest and just used the surgery as resoring her old figure. So, yes, I probably would do the same if I ever felt the need.
To remove a mole? YES! Moles are cancerous and also when broken they can be lethal.
To have my teeth capped? If I was having severe jaw pain, sore gums and incorrect posture of my jaws then yes.
Also if I hated the way they looked.
Breast implants? NO WAY!
Face lift? No because I prefer goo health to maintain my beauty.
Nose job? During my high school years I did after that no, although I do wish I was far better looking than I am right now.
I **** people who were ugly but then after getting plastic surgery to make themselves so flawlessly beautiful, then thinking they were god’s gift’s to every single good looking, gorgeous, handsome guy by treating less attractive guys like dirt, making less attractive women feel bad about themselves, thinking they can do whatever they want and get away with it because of their new found beauty are and will always be forever ugly!
After I am done having kids and if we have the money, I might get a tummy tuck. I am not fat, but pregnacy has left me with stretched skin below my belly button. I would also like to get my bigger stretch marks lasered off. I think that so many celebrities get plastic surgery because they can. Even though most of them don’t need it like Ashley Simpson, Jennifer Aniston and Ashley Tisdale. They all had nice noses to begin with, I don’t know why they got them changed.
NO!! i cant stand it when i hear people complain about insignificant things such as having a bit of fat round the belly, a spot, mole etc. alot of people have it much worse. personally, i’ll take having spots or a mole over having a deformoty or missing a limp or being in a wheelchair.
I probably would have some if I could afford it (I have no boobs, so that’s out). I don’t know about the face-lift, my face would have to look like it was melting off my head for me to consider it.
I saw a programme on the telly the other week about a woman who had so much ****** hair she grew a full beard and left it there. I found that weird, but what can you do?
I avoid all forms of invasive surgery and medical intervention if I can, so it’d have to be something that was really taking away my confidence. I’d probably have the mole removed because it could become a health risk, but the rest of them… no. I’d just try to accept myself the way I am. I think people in general look much better natural, and I don’t find the ‘plastic’ look attractive at all.
I feel all the above are acceptable if you have a problem with the way you look.
I feel that crossing the line is when you have a surgeon who does not take into account what actually suits you and you may end up with say, ****** implants that are far too big for your frame and I also say that crossing the line of plastic surgery is when you ask to look like the Cat Woman for example (a sad scenario indeed).
Sure I would do some of those. I wouldn’t even consider mole removal even a medical procedure in particular.
I had crooked teeth and was quite happy to get them corrected via braces. While many people consider this normal, it was a lot more involved than some of the procedures you are suggesting.
Personally, I am wary of ****** plastic surgery. Most people and doctors seem willing to go way too far. I used to know some models, and they looked quite beautiful in pictures but in person it was quite obvious how much work they had performed. But I’ve known some people who had subtle alterations performed which seemed to make them very happy.
Implants kind of scare me. Whether they are ****** implants or the new muscle implants that men are starting to get. I’ve dated women who had already gotten ****** implants, and I remember wondering how it would affect their long term health. But I considered it their business, and in all fairness some implants are a lot safer than others.
I think every one should have a chance to feel beautiful, and sometimes it is just easier to have something corrected medically than to learn to adapt to it. However in general I think it’s better to approach these things with a less is more attitude.
Many of our most famous beauties have flaws which help to create the very image that we love them for.
But let’s be honest if it was truly possible to walk into some clinic and really walk out with my ideal dream body with no health risks and no real chance of errors, it would be very, very tempting. I don’t think I would do it, but it would be tempting.
Mole removal or having your teeth capped are non-invasive, and aren’t really “surgical”, so no problem with either of those.
Implants, I consider that risky in general. Nosejob, maybe.
Face lift? I can see it. Once. People having so many facelifts that their ears meet in the back of their heads is a little much.
Going under the knife is always risky. There’s nothing ‘wrong’ with it it a person wants it, but I can’t see doing it for simple vanity. It could kill you.
I want a tummy tuck, I’ve had three kids. I don’t need ****** implants after the kids, I actually got bigger and stayed bigger, and they are not saggy or anything(can’t call them perky, exactly, because they are past the size that perkiness still applies to:P), and a ****** cream I am using is making them fuller and shapelier.
Honestly, I think anything acceptable- I am not to judge what someone else is willing to pay for! And I hope I look hot at 60- or at least feel hot. I think image is more than what meets the eye- constant change is a true sign that you are not happy with yourself. But on the other hand, fixing up a few “flaws” that you think will better yourself- do it. So I guess I am a tad impartial since with myself- I find the whole surgery process too scary to want to go through with anything! If you dont like my bump in my nose you can look the other way baby! lol
I think our “flaws” are what makes us unique- why do we all want to have straight noses and fat lips- BOOORING
Only if it was potentially detrimental to my health. I had a birthmark removed because it was changing shape and colour, which is a possible sign of skin cancer. I had a friend who got a ****** reduction for the sake of her posture.
I had moles removed, not for cosmetic purposes, but because of the risk of skin cancer.
Cosmetically, I had braces to straighten my teeth and LASIK to improve my vision (although I used to wear contacts, so it didn’t really change my appearance). I might consider ****** reduction in a few years if I start having back trouble.
The rest, probably not. I’m lucky, the women of my family age really well. And I actually like my nose – it’s the same nose as most of the people in my family. I enjoy seeing the connection.
I think it’s a bad idea to mutilate oneself. Surgery is surgery; it’s taumatic to one’s body. To save your life or some other compelling reason, it’s worth it.
But for the pettiest vanity?
But then, I wouldn’t even pierce my ears (I find it gross).
I would like a new nose. I am confident in myself other then that but at the same time I kind of like the unique parts of people, those little eccentricities. It really is a sin in a sense when there are people born with major deformities and we curse our perfectly normal and attractive looks. I just dislike my nose, as it is somewhat classical but blokes find me attractive so it is probably my own paranoia.
remove a mole from face – yes
tummy tuck after childbirth – possibly
teeth capped – yes
breast implants – no > ****** lift – yes
nose job – no
face lift – possibly when older

mole…….yes
tuck……..yes (if I was a woman)
teeth…….yes
t!ts……….no
nose…….no, maybe… well if the nose is bad enough… yes
face……..no
Anything is acceptable as long as the ends justify the means. Face lifts are usually not good, and ****** jobs almost always look bad.

It’s up to the individual to decide the relative importance
of the listed surgeries.
I personally would not have any unnecessary surgery.
If I’m not satisfied with who I am – a scalpel won’t help.

Yes, I might have it to help fight the effects of gravity or mother nature within reason.
I draw the line when the woman begins to look like sci fi cartoon character ala Pamela.
