Fabíola — Portofolio #4

The role of cosmetic surgery in the world we live in today is to benefit both young and old people emotionally, physically and psychologically.

First, cosmetic surgeries can help people overcome their emotional traumas. Normally, a person decides to undergo a plastic surgery to fix a feature that is irregular on his or her body. However, the benefits of cosmetic surgeries go even further. For instance, a 19-year-old boy called Flávio Soares suffered from an emotional trauma as a child because of the rudeness of his colleagues, and the teasing he used to receive at school due to his huge nose size. He didn’t need psychological assistence because his mother made him realize that nobody is physically perfect in this world. And after having undergone plastic surgery, Flávio became a different man because it was such a boost to his self-esteem, which could be felt by everybody around him. Thus, cosmetic surgery can help people boost their self-confidence by overcoming emotional traumas. 

Second, cosmetic surgery can help people overcome their physical traumas by bringing normalcy to something that is not perfect in his or her body. Plastic surgery does not only make a person more outgoing, but it can also help  improve his or her physical condition. For example, a 20-year-old young woman called Luciana Ribeiro started practicing exercises only after her breast reduction surgery. Luciana had been avoiding physical exercises during her whole life before the surgery because she never felt comfortable wearing tight clothes and due to the pain she felt on her back because of the weight from her breasts. And now, she goes to the gym every single day wearing as little clothing as possible to practice exercises and be admired by her friends for the beauty of her body. Thus,  cosmetic surgeries can help people overcome their physical traumas by bringing normalcy to their body’s imperfection.

Finally, cosmetic surgery can help people recover from their psychological traumas. The benefits of cosmetic surgery are felt throughout any age group. Older people have found a resource  in cosmetic surgery that psychologically makes them feel younger. For instance, my mother was very depressed because of the aging effects on her face. And she thought that because of this, she was not able to find a boyfriend.  After undergoing a face lift, she got the vitality of her appearance back and started feeling so attractive that she found a boyfriend many years younger than she was. Besides that cosmetic surgery can help people recover from their phycological trauma and to concentrate on areas that are really important to them, draining away their valuable mental energy, for years.
