Cosmetic surgery is now an open industry, and even ordinary people go for it as long as they extra money. Unlike before that only famous personalities showbiz people and only the ones who really need it, it is now being accepted by the public. As for me, I don't think I will not unless I really need it say I had an accident and the only way to bring my face back is through cosmetic surgery. How about you, would you for it if you have extra money? Thanks!

scary, isn't it? Unless you really have a bad accident, otherwise, you just won't need cosmetic surgery to mess up your face. It would be forbidden, and I don't think people like that either. Unless you need your face to make money, like showbiz.

I rather buy a house and lot for my family, invest for a business and help a cancer patient rather than change my external appearance. The answer is obviously no. I will not alter anything on my physical appearance. I know that when you a cosmetic surgery do your nose, this has many disadvantage. Life from there on you will always watch out for your nose, check or it on the mirror if it is was deformed, because that was not the original form. Those that do their butt with silicon have the effects when it was not done accurately. I am more afraid on the later effects than it gives me after the procedure. I still believe in God given attributes although not perfect but long lasting.

No, I won't go even I have extra money for that. I like to be natural and do not like fake things. I feel unnatural with synthetic modification. It's even worse if the surgery leave us some side effects or permanent disability. I have heard of stories cosmetic surgery failure and repeated operations are needed.

NO no.. I will not go for it, because i dun need it at all.. lol =D I only believe in nature, and that i've bot really aged much in the recent few years.. lol =D Cosmetic surgery is only temporary, and it's addictive too. haha Who wont wanna look pretty when they have done it once and it's successful? BY then, one will start to be greedy by going for more.. hehe ^_^ Alot depends on whom they are doing the cosmetic surgery for?? Themselves, or for their partners?? haha =D Even if i have an accident, maybe i wont go for plastic surgery too.. Because i have to accept the fact, and the scar will always be inside of me..

hi fatherblogger, a big NO! i am happy with what God has given me. what matters to me is the inner beauty of a person. if she/he is beautiful inside and out that's really great. the side effects especially when you grow old is too scary...yuckyyyyy!

Same as you. I would go for cosmetic surgery if I badly need it. I am contented with my looks anyway. Better spend my extra money in an investments, or better donate some of it charities or travel in places I'd love to go. You can use you money in many ways. It depends on how you spend it wisely.

hi fatherblogger. i don't think i will go for cosmetic surgery, if i have extra money. even if it calls by an accident. if i have extra money, i might give it to the needy, the poorer ones. i know there are lots of people who needs help.

Oh yes, I've seen many celebrities who have undergone cosmetic surgery even if they already look good. I think they have gone too vain and would not know how to spend their money. Well that is their money anyway! But I think you are right, unless it is needful then why have cosmetic surgery. If an accident has really ruined the form of ones face then cosmetic surgery is the best alternative. As for me, I've been very contented with what God has given me. I think God never makes mistakes so whatever kind of face He has given to all of us, that we should keep and be thankful about.

Nope, I'm confident in the way I look, I'm already married so I don't care much (heeheehee). I'd rather spend the extra cash for something useful or loan it to some friend instead.

I too would not waste extra money on cosmetic surgery unless I needed it because I had been seriously injured or in an accident. I believe in growing old the way God made me, but I also believe in taking good care of my looks and my body. I would not waste extra money to change my facial features nor any area of my body. Usually after having the first cosmetic surgery you will have to go for another and another. People who are not satisfied with themselves in the first place will not be satisfied after cosmetic surgery.

Since then I was really interested about it but nowadays I realized it is not important. I may not be that attractive but at least what I have physically are natural. Surgery for me is only applicable for those who really need it like people whom had accidents but for ordinary people whom had not experienced accidents we should be thankful about what has God given us.

No way. Unless, as you said, I had been horribly (and I mean HORRIBLY) disfigured in a car crash or fire or something. I like what I look like, sure some things may not be what I'd consider totally perfect, but it's what makes me unique. :)

Yes, I would. I think it is a great opportunity to improve one's physical appearance.

I don't know. I would really need a lot of money to get to the point that I would put it into unnecessary surgery.

There are so many more things that I care about, and that I am concerned with that I could use extra money for. Even if I had enough money to take care of all my needs and wants, and those of my family and friends, cosmetic surgery would not be on my list of things to spend money on. I would much rather feed the hungry or shelter the homeless, help the environment or just make a strangers day a little brighter.

oh no, that is definitely a "no" for the answer. I would rather be nature, and not to be artificial. That would be waste of money, and against the nature. I understand that most people want to be beautiful. But not through this way to beautify yourself. We all have other options.

I would always go for natural and so I haven't thought of having a cosmetic surgery even if I have that extra money. There are lots of other things to spend with! thanks.

If I have extra money ,I would not go for a cosmetic surgery.Firstly,I think it is not nessary to take a cosmetic surgery.It cost us a lot of money ,and it may bring some dangerous effect.
