Description

Explore the complex motivations behind one of the fastest growing medical specialties. Reflecting on Cosmetic Surgery: Body image, Shame and Narcissism provides a grounded look at the modern reality of cosmetic procedures. Rather than relying on common misconceptions, this study uses in-depth interviews with 30 women to understand why they choose surgery as an option for their lives. This book offers a theoretical framework to help readers understand the relationship between the self and body image. Northrop examines how the attempt to repair a poor body image drives these decisions. It is a vital resource for those studying the social and psychological aspects of medical grooming and modern identity. Whether you are a student of sociology or interested in the human side of medicine, this work provides real accounts that frame deep discussions on shame and narcissism.
