Am watching Extreme Makeover.

They are doing surgery on two women, a mother/daughter duo.

The daughter, who was very small busted, gets size C breasts as part of the makeover.

The daughter unveils her new chest for the first time.

The mother looks approvingly at the implants and says, "You should be happy now."

HULK SMASH

There is more to happiness than appearance. If she wasn't happy before, she'll be excited by the new change, but eventually that unhappiness will come out and express itself again. I'm willing to think I might be wrong, and I hope I am, for her sake.

I think you're right on target here, that a lot of cosmetic surgery simply begets more cosmetic surgery. It makes me sad. Women refuse to look their age, right down to their face, and instead, they end up looking like some sort of strange, permanently surprised, frozen-faced clownish sort of alien.
