If media and entertainment advertise a perfectly modified person, society and the people feed off of it. "The current standard of beauty feeds the fashion, beauty, diet, surgery, entertainment, media, and pornography industries, just for starters, the homogenisation of appearance having become part and parcel of an increasingly globalised consumer culture "(Briscoe). That is why there is a continuous increase in cosmetic surgery, it is ideal to be apart of the picture-perfect society and to feel beautiful in others eyes. The desires for being the perfect image is rarely questioned because it is known how important it has been made in society today. Normal bodies are not appreciated anymore, idealized bodies and faces are what is deeply acknowledged. As a narrow idea of beauty is becoming globalized, and a body/face does not fall under that category it is most likely to be criticized. .
Now that cosmetic surgery is an avenue for a person to become what they desire, it is not questioned when changes want to be made. It is now a surgical age that has become normal."But now that faces can be broken, cut and stitched into place, implants added and teeth straightened, we have reached a point of fearful "indeed, frightful "symmetry. "(Briscoe). When it is mentioning reaching a point of frightful symmetry, people are scared to be different or have imperfections which supports that society had made cosmetic surgery a pressure on women. Today there is a very exact and optimal image of what beauty is. So, instead of the requests for surgery being differentiated, they mostly want to be the same, which is called homogenous beauty. Today, bodies and faces are like a rough draft, the way we are born and each surgical procedure is like a draft until it gets to how one wants to look.
