How do you feel about plastic surgery? Is it something you would ever consider or not?”

I viewed some examples on http://www.plasticsergeant.com and now I'm sure there're cases when plastic surgery can help career.

Of course!!! I would love a little nip tuck right now. Although I am a little fearful of going under with two kids. Crazy things do happen and then they don't. I am just not that risky right now. My dreams is to have a Demi Moore makeover.

I feel like anyone should do what they wish and what ever makes them feel better.

Money no issue ~ I'd have a tummy tuck, lipo, botox and the 'girls' lifted ... it's been a tuff year! :)

I have always had a distaste for my eyelids - I am only 36 and at the rate they are going, I will have no eyelids soon! I am experimenting with different eye creams to see if any of them do anything. But I think I would have to come into a lot of money to do it - don't want to go into debt over it. I would need to go to a really prestigious place for it - no overseas plastic surgery trips for me - I have seen the horror pictures!

Under normal circumstances - no. This is good to have at hand in case of an accident, in case some of your body parts tend to be disproportioned etc.

The ONLY way I would do it is if I had been in an accident and needed it to correct something. The good Lord gave me these lines and I bloodly well earned every one of them. Tho liposuction might possibly something I'd consider IF I had to choose. But as far as a boob job or other things, nope, not for me.

Never!! I have had too many required surgeries I cannot imagine having a non-required one! Plus there are too many great skin care products (Insta-tox is my face lift in a tube - cheaper than Botox!).
Same with Botox and Tattoos - no more needles!!

i have no problem with it! I dont know if *I* would do it because the whole 'surgery' thing scares me to peices... i think if it makes you happy and you get satisfaction from it than good for you :)

I had my breasts lifted/reduced/evened out and am much more comfortable. I had an upper eyelid lift which was minimal, but worth it. I encountered alot of "agism" when returning to the work force and I think these little adjustments helped.

No, I'd never do it. I'm not happy with every bit of the skin I'm in, but regardless of the imperfections, it is 100% me. If I change even one thing (unless it's a health/comfort issue like a breast reduction) then I'm not quite the same as I was. I may be prettier, but I'm only 80 or 90% of what I was intended to be. I'd be that much closer to looking just like everyone else, and I wouldn't want that!
