is cosmetic surrgery ethical?

as long as cosmetic surgery is practiced for people under trauma,accidents,superficial burns etc it is a boon.when people start using it for glamour and figure corrections,it can become unethical,and side effects are also there.cosmetic surgeons need to clarify about the possible side effects with patients.the medical fraternity needs to deal with c.s's  who are advertising unbelievable claims, and practicing it to their advantage.

I'm not sure that your marketing instructor will appreciate this, but even though your environment (customers, suppliers, investors, community...) will punish you if it thinks that you are unethical, choosing to be ethical still incurs an opportunity cost.  Think like this, you are Nike and you have six low cost suppliers for sneakers, just like Reebok.  If you know that the two cheapest ones employs children and choose to use neither, you are constricting your options to compete.  Not all questionable actions are found out.\n  This is why I detest linking ethics to profitability.  It's so hollow to follow the "Right path" because it makes you more money, instead of value driven behavior being done for more fundamental principles.\n\nGood luck to you on this....

Cosmetic surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

cosmetic surgery for sure. It has completely ruined many people like Michael Jackson and a host of others. It's actually addictive and a true rip-off.

The adverserial legal system is governed by rules of conduct and engagement imposed on both parties. In that sense it is ethical as it provides a structure for "fair play". However, a lawyer's job is to win a case hor his/her client. Taking advantage of loopholes in the law is one way to beat the otherside. In some cases, this may not be ethical. Nevertheless, the legal process that we have provides the best way to redress a wrong since a party that feels its claim was not handled well/fairly within the scope of the law, can in some cases seek further action through the appelate courts. This is as good as it gets folks! The alternative would be Hamurarbbi's Sheria/Law, where justice is meted out in the form of chopping off body parts.

it is most definitely not ethical.  it is scandalous.  now, are you aware that much of the stuff aimed at gr6 gr7 is actually aimed at mainstream consumer.  that is the age that business considers most readers of advertising to be.\nbrainwashing techniques by contually repeating ads is not ethical either.  I wonder how much of what we consider necessary for life and happiness is advertising generated.  it is dictating what we need and want.

I have heard horror stories about the use of restalyne injected into the flesh.  But worse is the psychological ramifications of trying to change your appearance.  My advice is to grow old with grace and dignity.

Dr. Nicholas V. Perricone, or Dr. N.V Perricone is a doctor who specializes in dermatology (matters of the skin), and issues such as wrinkles, weight loss, acne, and diet. He has written many best-selling books and has his own line of lotions, facial cleaners, toners, supplements, and many other health care related items. He is a very wealthy man and it appears he works more to make people pretty, than healthy. I have heard that his products are really good, but I have never tried them myself. I know that some of the facial cleaners and lotions are very expensive. Are they worth it? I cannot say. He is making a lot of money from a lot of people though.

I witnessed some thing very similar the other day and ethically speaking it is wrong though legally I believe it is a grey area. \n\nI was appaled to see it and made my disapproval known to this women who basically gave a load of lip back , but my conscience is clear

Ethics are not, by definition, unethical.  However, I suspect you mean something specific, such as a rule that the company you work for calls "ethics" which you question.  Try to tell us about it.

Her doctor is just a really good doctor. There are no specific ethical restrictions about advertising or recommending surgery. Anybody can advertise, because you would still need to talk to a doctor about the surgery.  A doctor can recommend anything he thinks will help the person, whether it's physical or mental.  Some doctors have better personal ethics and will draw the line, but there will always be another doctor willing to perform the surgery.

Well ... though most of us have an illusion that morality and ethics have strted to die out in the field of business ( Imyself used to think that earlier ! ) , yet there is evidence that those companies who have a well defined ethical code for their employees as well as fir the customers are successful to form a good "public image", which proves to be instrumental in boosting up a company's profit. There is also statistical data available on that. I know all this now cuz recently i had a chance to give presentation on business ethics in college and for that i had to do extensive " research" . So the verdict my friend is ... there still is room for ethics and morality in business world ..( though the intention behind the same may not be genuine ) ...

It really depends.  Some dentists are willing to do more things for purely cosmetic reasons than others are.  Have you thought about having them capped?

I have nothing against cosmetic surgery, but make sure you don't want any more kids first.  Or make sure you don't have any more kids first.

You will probably need to specialize on something. Ethics seems to be a field that is getting a lot of attention lately and lots of corporations, hospitals and organizations are hiring Ethics officers to oversee their policies.
