Yeah, I agree with grim. I don't see anything wrong with plastic surgery, as long as you don't overdo it, meaning no more than one procedure. If you have this really weird bump in your nose, or your lips are pursed in, or your ears stick out like dumbo's, then why not? The problem arises when people have plastic surgery over and over again to achieve a look that is unattainable (like those airbrushed magazine covers).

Plastic surgery isn't wrong, per se. You have to have the money and vanity to risk your life for beauty. It's just extremely unnecessary, IMO. And besides, the question is "What's the diff b/t plastic surgery and getting braces?", not "Why is plastic surgery immoral?"</p>

<p>and to clear this up, i have no issue w/ppl who get PS. I mean, I think the cash could be spent in other places, but whatever. </p>

<p>I'm just saying that braces and plastic surgery can be way different</p>
