    Default Would you ever have cosmetic surgery?

    I don't know if I'd have anything done to my body, but I'd love to have dental implants. I hate my teeth and so I would love to have this done at some point. Maybe in a few more years I'll splash out and have it done.

    What about you? What would you have done? Have you ever had anything?

    And yes, it goes without saying anyway but no shaming people for their opinions. Cosmetic surgery is not a bad thing.

    No. I don't want to have surgery period if I can help it.

    Depends. Would replacing my limbs with superior Deus Ex style limbs count as cosmetic surgery?

    I had the opportunity to have plastic surgery to have the scar on my face smoothed over (without having to pay for it), but I wasn't able to have it done for quite a few years, and then by the time I -was- old enough to make the decision, I wasn't bothered by having it anymore and just decided not to.

    I'd like to have a breast reduction. And put the fat in my booty.

    It's not surgery, but I want Botox in my forehead. I have this permanent wrinkle between my eyebrows from being pissed off so much over the years.

    Maybe my teeth. I hate my gap. Other than that, no.

    I can certainly afford it and I'm sure you can guess what I'd have done but I just can't justify that level of expenditure on anything other than a car or house. I've kind of learned that the people who are important don't really give a smurf how you look and besides, how long do any of us have before we start looking old and wrinkly and gross? It'll happen to everyone so I'm not worrying about it. Not that I'm trying to be condescending to anyone with body image issues and I appreciate it's not as easy as snapping your fingers and not caring, just sharing my own outlook.

    Are you paying for it?

    Then sure, why not

    I wouldn't mind getting some prettier teeth, or a bit more hair on my head. I also have some (many) scars I want to get rid off, but I don't even know how realistic that is. In either case, all of this is out of my price range.

    No. I am beautiful, no matter what they say. Words can't bring me down.

    But seriously, I love myself for who I am, scars galore, big slightly wonky nose, boring hair, I don't care. I'm happy.

    Yep. I had rhinoplasty (nose job) about 6 years ago. When I was younger, a girl used to bully me. One day she pushed me into a concrete wall and it broke my nose. Since then I had a bump on the bridge on my nose that I HATED. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying all people with bumps in the noses are ugly, but for me, I hated it. I had such low self confidence and felt like I looked like a man. I eventually made the decision at 20 to get it fixed. The surgeon filed down the bump on the bridge of my nose- he didn't touch any other part of it.

    I have no regrets, so glad I had it done. Aside from terrible itchiness under the cast and going a bit crazy on mega strong pain killers, I had minimal amounts of pain.

    Would I consider cosmetic surgery again? Hell yes. If I had the money, I'd be under the knife right now having a full body transformation!

    I might have to get a nose job because of a broken bone in my nose. It depends if my breathing continues to get better. I really don't like surgery.

    Yep. Would have laser treatment to remove some scars.

    Also, will likely need dental implants in the future and it is one of The Big Things on my financial list to save for. Sucks because for the cost of it I could spend a few months traveling abroad, but it is what it is.
