To augment, or not to augment? That was my question...
-Nadine Haobsh, BettyConfidential.com
A year ago, I left my sheltered existence writing in the English countryside to take a job working for two wonderful, down-to-earth plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills. I've never been the skinniest filly in the stable, but I've always had relatively solid self-esteem, positive body image, and a healthy awareness of my place in the female universe.
In my work building, a hop, skip and a jump from the Hustler
store, and not two miles from the Playboy Mansion, I quickly
discovered I was the only female employee who had not had plastic
surgery. The only one. Women passed through our operating room in a
revolving door of neuroses: this one undergoing her third surgery
in 18 months because she couldn't get the boobs just right;
that one going in for the full Swan-style Bionic overhaul (lipo of
thighs, stomach, flanks and knees; tummy tuck; boob job number two;
cheek implants; and revision rhinoplasty); one of our very own
employees obsessing that her quite lovely C-cup breasts were ugly
and awful and needed to be redone (read: made bigger and perkier)
immediately.
