10.An increasing number of people are choosing cosmetic surgeries. Why do people have operations to change the way they look? Do you think this is a positive or negative development?

It is claimed that more and more
people
are changing their appearances by
surgeries
.
People
decide to perform these activities normally because of external factors, but
this
puts
people
’s lives in danger, and it is
therefore
, I believe that it is a negative development.
People
are becoming more influenced by what others say, do and think.
This
is because an increasing number of
individuals
are criticised for their physical aspect, when a lot of
people
tell them the same things they begin to doubt if what the others are saying is true or not, causing uncertainty and dissatisfaction in their appearance.
Furthermore
, what close
people
do affects how the individual acts. When
individuals
see that friends have decided to do plastic surgery and had successful results, they might be influenced and
also
do it.
For example
, in Korea and China, lots of
people
decide to implement nose and eye
surgeries
because friends and family have done it and told them to do it, so they will get prettier.
However
, when carrying out plastic
surgeries
,
people
put their lives in danger. When the
individuals
decide to do an operation, they need to sign a paper accepting that they can have life danger and that if the final result is not the one that they wished, they need to accept. Since not all the results are good, sometimes the operation can fail, leaving
people
looking worse than they were. Normally, when
people
change their appearance, they won’t do it just once, they will do it again and again, and
as a
consequence
Add a comma
,consequence
show examples
they will have facial sequelae.
For instance
, in China, a girl who named herself “real Barbie”, did too many times cosmetic
surgeries
so she could look like Barbie, but now she cannot make any facial expression. So I believe, that the development of changing a person’s appearance by
surgeries
, is a negative progress. In conclusion, normally
individuals
decide to carry out cosmetic
surgeries
because of external influences, but
this
can lead to life problems and sequelae, and it is ,
therefore
, a negative evolution.
