Totally Hip Community | Blog | Survey Finds Cosmetic Surgery is a ...
Image, it seems, is everything. Or at least that?s what the results of a recent study concerning plastic surgery have indicated. According to researchers at the University of California ? Los Angeles, a majority of men as well as a large number of men said they were interested in cosmetic surgery when asked.
The survey found that 48 percent of women were interested in liposuction, cosmetic surgery, or a combination of the two. An additional 23 percent said they would ?possibly? be interested in the procedures.
Despite the traditional connotations of cosmetic surgery as a feminine procedure, a surprising number of men expressed a similar interest. Twenty-three percent of the men surveyed said they would definitely be interested, and 17 percent said they might be interested.
These results are consistent with the high priority given to appearance in American society. A recent Gallup poll revealed that 70 percent of Americans felt physical attractiveness played an important role in one?s ?happiness, social life, and ability to get ahead.? The same survey, conducted in 1999, found that only 19 percent of adults would consider cosmetic surgery. Clearly, society?s preoccupation with looks has not faded, and in fact has only strengthened in recent years.
?Interest in cosmetic surgery is far more widespread than we had anticipated,? said David Frederick, a graduate student of psychology at UCLA. ?The majority of women expressed some interest in cosmetic surgery, and more than one-third of men expressed some degree of interest, which I found really surprising.?
