Indeed, two types of surgery exist: cosmetic surgery such as rhinoplasty, and reconstruction surgery, like breast reduction. It is a complicated decision to take, as it asks reflection about not only the price and the risks of the operation, but also, the pertinence of the procedure according to the maturity of the teenager. As an example, a study done by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons revealed that most teenagers do plastic surgery to blend in their social environment and feel better about their appearance. Moreover, the operation and the post-operation is a source of stress, discomfort that requires solid mental health as well as support from family and friends. On top of that, and to illustrate this point, breast augmentation is prohibited under 18 years old because the saline product in breast implants could harm patients below 18 years old. Furthermore, teenagers’ bodies are still changing and growing, therefore operation on them should not be the first choice, as it can harmonize itself through the years. However, plastic surgery on teeangers could be a necessity, in case of an important injury - dislocated jaw - or if a current part of their body harms them or causes disabilities, such as ear deformities.]]> 2023-04-06 14:37:51 UTC https://padlet.com/corinnebonnetups/mibtv3u1cdgnaj99/wish/2546342307 The facial prosthetics of WWI https://padlet.com/corinnebonnetups/mibtv3u1cdgnaj99/wish/2546354600 After WWI, many soldiers returned home with serious injuries on the face. In 1917, Anna Coleman Ladd and Francis Derwent Wood decided to help them by making masks to give a social life back.  They opened a studio to make facial casts of injured faces then painted and remade eyebrows, mustaches with real hair.
In 1923, she created a controversial WWI memorial for the American legion in Manchester, Massachuset. This memorial has 2 images called respectively “night” and “dawn”.
