wanna change of face??

Visit South Korea then and poof! you may come out looking ravishing with the looks you desire.
plastic surgery is an increasing trend mostly among girls and sadly, parents in more liberal countries are encouraging their kids to alter their looks. Going under the knife has detrimental effects on both the society as well as the individual. perhaps it is due to the advances in technology and the media that has prompted audiences to look at skin deep beauty. Artists appearing on TV with huge eyes, double eyelids, showcasing their barbie doll figure can awe girls (especially) and implant thoughts of going for plastic surgery. Although it is argued that technology is so advance so why worry? but we all cannot deny the fact that there will be a certain amount of risks when we undergo whatever surgery.
The world has been such a disappointment. they have let the standards of beauty drop drastically. so much so that the inner beauty is no longer appreciated and valued. the first thing people appeal to is the looks of the other individual. it was once said by a lady who was featured on a show 'extreme makeover' that her boss hired her not to meet clients but only to converse on the phone with clients. Has outer beauty triumphed over inner beauty? is the world stereotyping not so appealing people? everyone is unique in their own way. just like what the dove shampoo advertised, beauty is only but skin deep. hence we should not shun and judge those with not so privilledged looks.
