Cosmetic Surgery

This volume explores the potential benefits and consequences of cosmetic surgery: Does it improve self-esteem? Is it dangerous? Also covered are problems facing the cosmetic surgery industry, such as so-called cosmetic tourism, the safety of medical spas, and issues of cosmetic surgery regulation. Cosmetic Surgery examines the increase in social pressure to have cosmetic surgery and what to consider prior to making a decision, as well as the pros and cons of whether or not people should have elective plastic surgery.
