Cosmetic Surgery
Surgery that can improve the way a person looks is becoming more and more popular in
the United States.This kind of surgery is called cosmetic surgery,and both men and
women are turning to this treatment as a way of keeping their appearance young as well as
keeping competitive（有竞争力的）in their jobs. Men especially are beginning to turn to
face-lifts（面部拉皮手术）,liposuction(taking fat out of the body),and implants(putting
artificial parts into their bodies)to help them look younger. As companies downsize（缩
编）and move younger employees into higher positions,older employees in their late forties
and early fifties feel the need to look and act younger in order to stay competitive.These
operations are not without dangers,however.
One young woman had an eye operation to get rid of the bags under her eyes.She
described her experience as terrible.She said,"When he started cutting,I was fully
awake.Even though he'd given me an injection near my eyes,I saw everything."She
went on to explain,"I knew I had to keep still because of what he was doing.He was
scraping（刮）away fat underneath my eyes.It took about ten minutes.After he finished,
I felt I couldn't walk. I was 50 faint."Her troubles did not end after the operation for two
weeks.Her eyes were swollen（肿胀的）and almost completely closed,and even dark
glasses cou!d not hide the side effects of the operation.
Liposuction,taking fat out of the body,15 probably the most popular cosmetic operation
in the United States.It seems simple enough.First,a small cut 15 made over the place
where the patient wants the fat removed.Next,a small pipe 15 put into the cut.A machine
like a vacuum cleaner 15 then used to suck the fat out of the body.However,as one doctor
explained,some problems can happen after the operation.He warned, "lrregular lumps
and loose skin can result from this operation.If it 15 not evenly done,liposuctjon can produce
a very lumpy result."Patients often must have more Iiposuction to correct the
problem.
