Documentary on 12-Year-Old Model Discusses Plastic Surgery
There is a new independent film documentary that's about to be screened in Chicago which follows the career of a twelve-year-old fashion model. The film is about America's obsession with beauty (presumptively focused particularly on how this impacts young girls) and so it also delves into many different aspects of the beauty industry. For example, it takes a look at the chemicals that are in cosmetics and it reviews some of the risks of plastic surgery.
While some in the plastic surgery community would say that films are like this present a one-sided story that paints cosmetic procedures in a negative light, others support the idea that we should spread information such as this to the general public. Plastic surgery is something that should be taken seriously and the person who is considering it should know all of the risks and rewards that are associated with the procedure.
Of course, a documentary on a model's career isn't going to provide you with complete plastic surgery information if you're seeking to make a decision about your own work. You'll have to consult a plastic surgeon for that information. But films like this can get you started and can pose some questions for thought that will assist you in making your own plastic surgery choices.
Question of the Day: Do you know of any other documentary films that deal with the issue of plastic surgery?
