Happy weekend to all of us who enjoy sharing our experiences in this community. The proposed topics are very interesting and lead us to reflect on issues of everyday life.

I chose the topic that @galenkp invites you to give your opinion on whether or not to undergo plastic surgery, I liked other topics, but this in particular is a topic that has become recurrent among contemporary muses.

I am going to answer clearly and openly that I would never undergo cosmetic surgery to improve my appearance.

As I am, I think it is important to accept ourselves and not to undergo a surgical operation that, no matter how simple it may be, always involves risks, I think we should cultivate self-esteem, value ourselves and love ourselves very much, be clear that society has imposed patterns of beauty, which may be transient.

Nowadays girls inject silicone in their lips to make them pulpy, but in my youth all of us who have thick lips were the object of jokes, you were nicknamed bembona, since thin lips were the fashion of the time, I had to learn makeup techniques to make my lips look thinner, I had to choose a strong color on the inside, lighter for the outside and not reach the edge of the lips, today friends of youth joke saying with affection Negra now you are in fashion 😆.

That is why I think that undergoing cosmetic surgery, it is essential to do it for the right reasons and not influenced by external pressures or unrealistic standards of beauty, some people seek to improve their physical appearance, correct congenital defects, feel emotionally better because it means a lot to them, many expect to achieve absolute perfection or solve all emotional problems through surgery, without evaluating whether the reasons are realistic and if plastic surgery is the best option to achieve the desired results

Sometimes you may experience dissatisfaction or frustration after the procedure. True beauty comes from acceptance and self-love, and cosmetic surgery does not guarantee long-term happiness or emotional well-being.

Nowadays one of the most common topics to discuss with my contemporaries is surgery to remove the effect of the years, I reiterate that I would not put my life at risk for things that I consider trivial.

I do not mean that I am not interested in looking good, of course I am, but according to my years I choose to feel healthy and happy, for which I try to lead a balanced life, to eat properly, to exercise, to enjoy nature, family and friends.

I can comment that I have acquaintances who have had liposuction and have been beautiful for a short period of time, because they have not taken the required diet, many of them have regretted having undergone the operation.

In my opinion, they have had their work cut out for them, as these procedures have required a long recovery period, special post-operative care, and have not been consistent in the most important thing, lifestyle changes to ensure successful results.

Finally, I reiterate my way of thinking, the value of people goes far beyond their physical appearance, the true beauty lies in the acceptance of oneself and the confidence in our qualities.
