I'm just going to ask this question. Your perceived deficits were ones that you could fix through lifestyle changes and numerous treatments that have been discussed on this forum. How is cosmetic surgery that much more vain than, say, laser skin resurfacing or permanent hair removal? Most cosmetic surgery patients I have met have gone through similar experiences, they just couldn't diet away their issues; and because of that, their emotional "work" sometimes becomes delayed too.
