Inference. Violent games don’t have any effect on violent people; violent people influence what we put in our games nowadays. The matter is not that these “games” influence our children, but what is more important they are a result of what our world has become.

Cosmetic surgery among teens

Nepomnyashchaya Yevgeniya

Cosmetic surgery is now becoming a trend among teens all over the world. Adolescence is an awkward time. Teenagers often see their physical flaws as glaring and life-destroying. Interestingly, adults generally seek cosmetic surgery to make themselves stand out. Teenagers, on the other hand, desperately want to blend in with their peers.

Questions to the audience: Are you all satisfied with your appearance? If you have chance to change something in your appearance, will you use it?

The number of cosmetic operations has completely increased during the last decade. According to the American Society of Plastic surgeons in 1996 there were performed 14000 plastic surgery procedures among teens of 18 and under. In 2010 – already 229000 plastic surgery procedures among teens.

The most popular cosmetic surgeries among teens are the following:

1. Ear surgery (otoplasty) – 29% of teens (in USA)

2. Nose reshaping (rhinoplasty) – 14%

3. Chin augmentation – 9%

4. Breast augmentation – 3% (over 18 years)

5. Liposuction – 2% (over 21 years, if there is no acute necessity concerning problems of health)

The fact is that any surgery has risks, but a surgery on young, physically immature person has even more risks and complications.

The body of teenagers is not fully developed and cosmetic surgery procedures may lead to:

- Blood clots;

- Permanent scaring;

- Rheumatoid arthritis;

- Infection.

Cosmetic surgeries can easily be abused. After one operation a desire may appear to improve appearance for many times.

Questions to the audience: What were the reasons why these girls decided to undergo an operation? If you were in their shoes what would you do? If the main reason is low self-esteem, what are the ways to raise it?

Inference. We live in the world of fashion and it dictates strict rules. They press on our mind and make us do what the world wants. But we must not let them control us. Raise your self-esteem, surround yourself with people who really like you, be individual, be extraordinary. Love yourself.
