Plastic surgery--would you/have you?
Re: Plastic Surgery
My Bio (wedding pics added 7/6)
My 101
I imagine my body will sag in the future so I'm not above getting a nip and tuck where it is needed. I also have a huge butt and would love to get a little fat taken off that one!

I like to say that I've had plastic surgery. When I was 3 a ball hit my ear and tore my earing hole. It didn't tear all the way through my ear lobe but it was pretty bad. When I was 15 my mom found a plastic surgen that could fix it and insurance covered it, so I had plastic surgery.
I may be open to real plastic surgery in the future. I'll have to see what having kids does to my body
I used to be one of those people who always said "No! Why?!?!" However, I've started to change my tune a bit. I think I would be more likely to consider it in the case of reconstruction due to a medical situation (i.e., bad accident, cancer, etc.).
I have not yet had, and I plan to never have, plastic surgery. I am afraid enough of necessary surgery, I cannot imagine electing it. I can't imagine going through all of that pain, swelling, bleeding, etc. to just come out looking like a super-smooth creep who's clinging to her youth at the other end. And, being in Los Angeles, I feel it's really a point of pride to look like what you actually look like.
I don't even see myself getting botox. That's botulism toxin! If you eat it, you die. Why would I stick myself in the face with it?

I'm undecided. I'll probably have touch ups (like injectables or peels) at some point, but who knows about plastic surgery. I'm open minded and I don't judge people who have work done if it doesn't become a narcissistic compulsion (::cough, cough Heidi Montag, cough, cough::). If if makes you happier or more confident, I really don't see the harm. I guess we'll see how wrecked I look/feel post-spawning...
All that being said, if there was some magical procedure that eliminated under eye bags, I'd run to the nearest surgeon. Not walk, run.

KB, you can have some of my chin, I always talk about needing a reduction.
I am not against having a little nip or tuck once aging sets in. Maybe a boob lift or something to get rid of crows feet or a saggy neck are. I wouldn't want to do anything major that would result in the "Cher" look.
I have not and I don't plan to.
MAYBE if we end up with TONS and TONS of disposable income, I would consider it. But there are seriously so many other things I'd spend money on first (like a personal trainer and a chef and a maid and tons of designer clothes and travel and houses and college for my kids, etc. etc.)
This is probably true for me too. I think as I age the idea of fixing flaws sounds better and better to me. But in reality, the likely-hood that I would actually save up the money and do it is probably pretty low.
I had a breast augmentation in 2006. (I was extremely small and oddly shaped!) I've always been extremely happy with the results until I started BFing. Now they're absolutely gigantic; too big for my body. Hopefully when I stop, they'll go back to normal. If not, I have to eventually get them fixed anyways, so I'll just deal with it then.
I would never say that I'd never get anything else done. There's always a possibility that I might... but it would only involve my boobs, or maybe some lipo or a tummy tuck (if my body gets destroyed by baby #2 in a couple of years).

I've had a breast reduction, so yes, I am all for plastic surgery. If I had an extra $10K laying around I would probably have lipo on my stomach, hips, and inside my thighs.
I had my jaw reconstructed twice. Not necessarily "plastic surgery" per se, but it was very much an elective surgery for aesthetic purposes only. During the second jaw surgery, they screwed up my nose and I had to go back for a nose job.
Aside from that, I'd really love to get a little lipo for my fupa. Most people would probably think it's silly, but I work my butt off in the gym and eat well and that's an area that I've never been able to get rid of.
Oh, and boobs after kiddos is a possibility if it's needed. Geez, I sound vain...
A fupa, Chrissy?? I highly doubt you have a fupa!! lol I can't see one in any of your pictures. You definitely don't look like a potato to me!!!
Also... you don't sound vain.
