According to recent studies, the most common reasons that people undergo plastic surgery include:
- A desire to treat or reward themselves.
- An desire to feel more sexy and attractive.
- A desire to improve their relationship.
- A desire to feel more confident overall.
Perhaps the best news to arrive recently was in a study published by Science Daily. It concluded that plastic surgery tends to make people more happy:
“Patients demonstrated more enjoyment of life, satisfaction and self-esteem after their physical appearance had been surgically altered,” according to ScienceDaily.
The results internationally may be even more dramatic. Consider that as many as half of all women in Norway are interested in having some type of cosmetic surgery procedure, according to the journal ScienceNordic.
Scientists in Norway determined that the reason so many people in that country are interested in plastic surgery is that its benefits go beyond the physical.
