The Side Effects Of Plastic Surgery

Nowadays, many people are not satisfied with their appearance, so they will do many ways to change their appearance. The most popular way is getting plastic surgery. By getting plastic surgery, people will get an instant beauty because plastic surgery can reconstruct part of the body to be in accordance with the desired shape. However, in my opinion, we do not need to do plastic surgery to change our appearance for several reasons.

First, plastic surgery has side effect for our health. One of the effects of plastic surgery for our health is blood clotting. It happens because the body must rest, after surgery the body does not move during the recovery process. Another effect of plastic surgery is nerve damage in the area of the body that has plastic surgery. Sometimes, a number of plastic surgeries have already failed. Many people died because of operations that were far from needed. For example the 36-years old housewife Lorraine Batt, mother of three young children, died because of the surgery that would make her belly more pretty to be looked at.

Second, the operating costs are usually very expensive. Plastic surgery ranges from one-thousand dollars to three-thousand dollars or more depending on the surgery. For example for the liposuction procedure, one patient has to pay about two-thousand dollars. A plastic surgery also does not last a long time. For example, if we do plastic surgery to remove wrinkles, it will make us younger for a few years. Whereas life goes on and the wrinkles will reappear, so we need to get plastic surgery again. It makes us spend lots of money for getting plastic surgery repeatedly.

The last reason is plastic surgery also contrary to our religion. God has provided the perfect form for human beings. If we do plastic surgery, we will change what God has created for us. People who get plastic surgery indicate that they are not grateful for the grace of God that has been given to us.

In brief, plastic surgery does not always give benefit for us. We cannot choose plastic surgery as one way to change our appearance because it has side effects for our health, our financial, and contrary to our religion. Indeed, we had better be grateful for the grace that God has given to us.
