Children and Cosmetic Surgery
Throughout life many individuals have found that they are less than satisfied with their outward appearance. These feelings of inadequacy often lead to a feeling that things must be changed and cosmetic surgery is fast becoming the quick-fix for self-esteem problems. Maybe an individual feels that their nose is so big that this is the focus when interacting with the public. Rather than ignoring the large nose, or believing that this facial "flaw" makes the person an individual, it is now considered acceptable for a person to change any physical aspects that makes them feel different from their peers. In today's world, children can become victims of the trend as well. They are taught not to look different and that differences must be corrected. Sadly, many of these modern children have parents who have demonstrated that this opinion is correct.
Children may even be allowed to have cosmetic surgery if their parents do not have issue and can afford the often expensive procedures. Additionally, though uncommon, some parents have even facilitated breast augmentation for their young daughters. This is not an alteration for a physically deformity, but rather a dream of looking like the models in their favorite fashion magazines. After all, what parent would not put braces on their child's teeth if the option were in their means? So the thinking that follows is that rhinoplasty or breast augmentation is no different in building a child's healthy self-image than seeking the services of a qualified orthodontist.
Children, however, grow and change. Is it really in a child's best interest to alter their skeletal structure while in the developmental years of age? Although many reputable cosmetic surgery centers will not work on children under a per-determined age, other avenues are available for the parent who is determined. Some parents will even go so far as to allow multiple cosmetic surgery sessions in pursuit of a career for their child. Perhaps this is a sign of insufficient parenting. An individual who will alter their own offspring in pursuit of society's ideal of perfection is not placing emphasis on mental well-being, but on physical appearance and acceptance. In the past, some parents would frown on coloring or permanent waving of a youth's hair, and reasonably so. Children and adolescents are well-known for their constant changing of interests and ideas, so it seems in any child's best interest for permanent procedures to be put on hold until the child has become an adult. In the meantime, the caring parent can assist the child in learning to accept their differences as unique traits and learning to love their own individuality, regardless of what society might dictate.
With the latest interest in tattoos and piercing, your child needs to know how permanent these things can be. Though not considered cosmetic surgery, these procedures can have a long lasting effect on your teenager or child. They must know that their body is still changing and that if they choose to have cosmetic surgery or that they choose to have a tattoo or piercing, then it will be unsightly if there skin grows after the procedure.
