Very much so, but it didn't come across to me as sarcastic in the post.

Re: Handsome couple.... or The Brothers Grimm?
How anyone would think this plastic surgery would improve there appearances is beyond me. They must have no mirrors in the house not to see what they now look like or they are completly deluded that they now look better than did fefore

Apparently there are two reasons people keep having surgery. One is that certain people find it addictive. One example of this is Alicia Douvall. She is a person who actually started off quite pretty, doesn't look too bad at the moment, but I can see she is going to be another Jocelyn Wildenstein (assuming she survives that long, she has had so many ops that she's been told another could kill her).
Another possible reason is that they suffer from Body Dismorphic Disorder. This is a condition where the sufferer decides that a certain aspect (or aspects) of their body look wrong. It can be something relatively minor such as the nose, or something major like the shape of their body. They become fixated on this, and become convinced they are ugly as a result of this. One way sufferers attempt to relieve their suffering is through repeated surgery. Lea from Big Brother said in an interview she suffers from this, and became convinced her breasts were too small. Hence repeated surgery to make them larger, and larger and larger still.
I think part of the problem is that people are too eager to operate. If the doctors offered counselling first, a lot of people might be saved from feeling they need surgery. The problem with that is that while our Government can regulate our own medical industry relatively easily, there are any number of cheap plastic surgeons in Eastern Europe who will perform the op at a fraction of the cost of UK surgeons and won't bother with niceties such as Counselling. So, even if the government imposed strict controls here, the people who do this would just hop on the plane to Poland for a couple of weeks and get the surgery done there.

Ya I remember Lea from bb and she was so so bad and I think also that she had other surgery. It's so sad that people have this condition and think they have to improve there looks and yet they turn out so so bad. Never knew that people actually got addicted to this

Sorry, i should have linked something on her. You might have had to endure even more images of her though and to be honest i`d rather not subject anyone to anymore than is necessary.
