Surgery is over used an abused. There are more people getting surgeries done to make themselves look pretty and not for true medical issues that are treating to their health or repairing something that cased a deformity. A lot of people in today’s society think surgery is great and will change the way people look at them and look up to them more, but what people don’t realize is the pain and money that comes with surgery. When I was 14 I got into a fatal accident that tore off all my muscles and nerves on the right side of my face and broke most of my bones in my face as well. Over the years I have had 15 or even more reconstruction surgeries that each lasted about 5 hours of surgery. I never wanted to have any surgeries before this accident happened, but now I have no choice. The pain that I feel after ever surgery is terrible and this is why I don’t understand why someone would want to put themselves through that if they don’t have to! Even after that week or two of pain is over, years down the road that surgery you had may cause you health issues and have long term side effects you didn’t care about when the surgery was taking place. Another huge thing people don’t think about is the risk of something going wrong during surgery and the person dies. Why would you risk death if you don’t really have to? Not only is surgery painful, but it is very expensive. It amazes me what some people will do for attention and self fulfillment.
