Plastic Surgery

A few weeks ago one of our classmates presented a persuasive speech regarding the negative sides of plastic surgery. She mentioned Kanye West’s mother and her tragic death due to plastic surgery. I can clearly see why the speaker thinks that plastic surgery is extremely dangerous. I’m here to stand up for plastic surgery and say that it has had a positive impact on my life, better yet, my health.

When I was younger, my brother accidently hit my face with a basketball and broke my nose. It was painful. At first the injury was not so noticeable, but as I grew older my face changed and the broken bone was affecting my breathing. This breathing problem held me back from playing certain sports in school. I grew tired of it, and I decided to undergo rhinoplasty, also know as the nose job. Everything turned out great during and after my surgery. I can’t imagine how much worst my health would be if I hadn’t found a solution to my breathing problem.

I feel that when you are injured and you need to get surgery for a important reason it is 100% ok. There is no reason why someone shouldnt be able to get into better health due by undergoing plastic surgery. I think however when you are just trying to look better like kanye west mother was, there is no reason for the surgery. The risk is much higher then the reward, therefore surgery when it is not needed is rediculous.
