Why shouldn't teenagers get cosmetic surgery?

Answer 1

Teenagers, as anyone else, can benefit from reconstructive plastic surgery in case of mutilation or deformities. However, if it is for beauty reasons only, they should wait until their bodies are fully developed.

This has a simple reason: until the body is fully developed (at about 23 years old), the body features continue to change. You do not stop any part of the body from changing with plastic surgery and therefore you will not get a final result from it. Many plastic surgeries done on teenagers need to be retouched or fully done again at a later age.

Sometimes plastic surgery is a wonderful elective for those who "need" it. For example a car accident left a teen scared or maimed in a manner that plastic surgery could possibly remedy, or a 17 year old felt out of place because her nose was abnormally large and she had to deal with constant ridicule.

If your teen wants to be more attractive with a bigger bust, or more defined cheek bones; she should receive guidance from a counselor

i think teens she just stay the way they are and not get worried about what they look like.in life it's not all about looks."if your a prick" then you would care about looks but teens should just stay the way they were born...

Answer 2

Probably because they want to change their looks to get attention or approval of others. Teens believe that they have to look a certain way, either to feel included, or mainly to impress a particular individual or group of people. They get this idea either from themselves, or the media/peers. However, they don't realize that they do not necessarily need to change whay they look like- despite the fact that it sounds so cliché, it's who they are on the inside that counts.

Answer 3

Most Plastic Surgeons will not consider cosmetic surgery on minors. You need to be at least 18 before you can seriously be consulted for most procedures.

In younger teenagers the body is still going though changes and cosmetic surgery may not be appropriate.

Also, cosmetic surgery should not be entered into lightly. Teenagers may not be in a position to make such desicions about their own health.

Answer 4

Though plastic surgery may seem like the easy-out of all body issues...it really isn't.

Teens should be happy with what they have, and embrace both perfections and imperfections. That is what makes them them.

Plastic surgery changes who you are on the outside, but in the end...even with different physical appearance, you will always be the same person on the inside.

So love what you have, as it's what you'll have forever.

Teens also can choose plastic surgery especially they prefer to take nose & breast surgeries. In recent days, every teen looks to take plastic surgery to improve their external appearance or to get self confidence from difficulties.

Answer 6
