Plastic Surgery Rising Among Teens

By Ann Bowdan

POSTED: 2:51 pm EDT April 17, 2011

A California woman is under investigation after announcing on national television that she gives her 8-year-old daughter Botox injections. Kerry Campbell said she injected her child with the anti-wrinkle shot to help her in beauty pageants. The Human Services Agency in San Francisco has received numerous calls from people concerned about the child's well-being. Botox is not recommended for anyone under the age of 18.

Stories like this one may seem extreme. The fact is more kids and teens are getting surgical cosmetic procedures. Some experts believe the rise of social media is actually making teenage plastic surgery more popular. Teens only make up about 2 percent of all cosmetic surgeries, but that's triple from what it was in 2002. Doctors said cosmetic surgery can be crucial for a teen or a just craze.

"I think as plastic surgery has become more generally accepted by the populace at large. It's been passed down to teens,” said plastic surgeon Dr. Marc Salzman. “So many teen magazines(!) where they're showing their teen idols touched up or had things done. And it's more accepted now than it was 15, 20 years ago." "I have, for all my practice, do have a significant number of patients who fall into the 12 to 19 age range,” said plastic surgeon Dr. Donn Chatham. Surgeons said social acceptance, safer products, less fear and media hype create a boom situation in teen cosmetic surgery.

In 2010, the number of procedures decreased slightly with more than 220,000, but with an increase in the types of procedures done. "There are some very good procedures, some of them, surgeries that are totally appropriate for young people and very beneficial,” said Chatham.

Surgeons said all teen plastic surgeries are not equal. Some may be searching for perfection, which is a red flag. A greater number are just searching to be normal. "There are some things that kids have to grow up with that appearance wise aren't in the norm," Salzman said.

The No. 1 procedure with teens is rhinoplasty, or a nose job, making up 74 percent of all procedures. "Rhinoplasty is very interesting because they usually combine a functional problem, which is breathing related, to an aesthetic issue, which is appearance related,” Chatham said.

In today’s society, when appearance isn't up to par teen online teasing can be brutal, which makes plastic surgery even more in demand.

"Now it's out there on Facebook. A picture of the girl with an arrow pointing to her nose, I've seen those things. It can be very disheartening,” said Salzman. "Some cyberbullying leads to some very sad consequences for the young person who was the subject of bullying and some of this starts out with a physical problem,” Chatham said.

Most teens are skeletally mature by age 15 and can legally undergo many procedures, but not all.

Doctors said it's crucial that teens understand the risks, recovery and sometimes up-keep after plastic surgery.

Для темы «Root of all evil?» мы подобрали статью «Generation Gap».

Generation Gap

I read a blurb in the newspaper (how 20^th Century is that?) and was reminded of the time when my son, who was maybe 10 or 11 at the time, asked me two very telling questions.  First he asked how old I was when I got my first computer.  Sometime after that he asked me why we didn’t have video tapes of me or his mother when we were kids.

Mindset List

Apparently this generational gap is a serious issue that has the potential to disrupt the process of higher education.  Beloit College, a small liberal arts school in Wisconsin, has just published its 12^th annual Mindset List.

The Beloit College website explains that the Mindset List is an effort to identify “the worldview of 18 year-olds” in the fall of 2009 and to help the college’s older professors recognize that their references to famous and infamous people or events in the past might fall upon the “deaf ears” of the incoming freshman class.

 

According to an AP article, “For most teens starting college this fall, rap music has always been mainstream, Mike Tyson has always been a felon, and wars have always unfolded on TV in real time.”

The Class of 2013 has never known a world without the Internet, flat-screen TVs, or chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, according to the study.  Nor have they had to live in a world deprived of personal computers (or Macs), cell phones, or digital cameras.

One interesting example of this generational gap is that most incoming students who participated in the Beloit study apparently recognized Magic Johnson as a celebrity having gone public about being HIV positive more than having been a basketball star for Michigan State and the LA Lakers of the NBA.

Tom McBride, an English professor at Beloit who helped compile the collection, noted that this Magic Johnson illustration should serve as a reminder to Beloit’s professors that “different generations can hear the same reference and think two completely different things.”

Perhaps this perception about Magic Johnson says more about the students entering Beloit College this fall than it does about a generation gap.  I would hazard a guess that the results might be different for the freshman class entering Michigan State.

Book Bannings?

Here’s an interesting question to ponder?  Will books be going the way of LPs and cassette tapes?  Amazon.com is selling its popular Kindle electronic book reader like hot cakes.  (I bet most of the students entering Beloit College this fall have no idea what hot cakes are, much less what "selling like hot cakes" means.)

Devices like the Kindle, Sony’s digital reader, and others are often referred to as digital book readers or e-readers.  Now even smart phones, including the iPhone, the Palm Pre, and BlackBerry devices, can be used to download and read books.

Even school libraries are going high tech.  I recently read an article in the local paper (yes, I’m still reading those old-fashioned newspapers) reporting that the library at a private, co-ed boarding school is going bookless. 

The Cushing Academy library is being transformed into a cybercafé and coffee shop, with a faculty lounge to allow for more interaction between teachers and students.  The library’s 20,000 traditional volumes are being replaced with electronic texts, and e-readers, and smart boards will be installed with direct access to the Internet.

According to Cushing’s headmaster James Tracy, the library will be virtually bookless by 2011.  “Cushing’s internal research has shown that students rarely rely on printed books for their academic work, and instead search for information online, either in the school’s Fisher-Watkins Library space or on their laptops,” Mr. Tracy said.

How long will it be before paperback and hardback books join transistor radios, rabbit-ear TV antennas, and floppy disks as relics from the not-too-distant past?
