Cosmetic Surgery For The Under Seventeens: A Thai Perspective

Nitikorn Fongrattanakul

Nowadays, everyone can see a lot of cosmetic surgery sites in many countries and they can be found through different media sources such as television, newspapers, magazines, the Internet and brochures. Cosmetic surgery is able to make or change the face or body to be more beautiful than before. It also treats you as a nice person and creates you to become a new person. However, there are some advantages and some disadvantages of cosmetic surgery.

On the positive side, everyone has equality as humans and they can do the same things if they want to. In addition, there may be good things which come in life through cosmetic surgery such as good looks, the ability to earn money a lot and become famous.

For example in my country, Thailand, cosmetic surgery is really popular among people over twenty and famous Thai people. Most famous people usually have a new face or a new body made by being operated upon in hospitals.

On the other hand, there are some problems. There may be accidents during operations. Firstly, young people tend to make decisions without thinking carefully and it may be too dangerous for them to do some things which risk their faces or their bodies. Secondly they have just wanted to do it to follow the fashion of each period nowadays. And the last disadvantage is that cosmetic surgery is not necessary in life and it also requires people to spend too luxuriously.

In my opinion, cosmetic surgery is able to be good or bad because if you are operated upon safely in a good hospital, you will get a good result but if you are not, you may get bad news. However, it depends on each doctor and how they perform, whether it be skillfully or not.

In conclusion, people under seventeen should not be allowed to have cosmetic surgery because they are very young people and they also have to be looked after by their parents closely. If they were adults, they could have it. But not this time, to do some thing like this.
