Growing up, some people have a healthy dislike of certain body parts. Perhaps they have an unsightly nose. These persons resolve to correct the dislike when funds are available. On the other hand, persons addicted to cosmetic surgery demonstrate a measure of psychological problems.
Persons with this condition can be extremely good-looking, but view themselves as ugly. They equate happiness with beauty. Thus, to achieve a happy state, they undergo repeated cosmetic surgeries. Unfortunately, people with this disorder are never satisfied with their appearance. Hence, cosmetic surgeries are never-ending.
Signs of Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Addiction
Plastic surgery addictions are usually easy to detect. Obviously, patients who have had countless cosmetic surgeries, either on the same body part or on different body parts, are typical addicts.
Addicts commonly obsess about specific body parts of an admired celebrity. For example, a patient may request Angelina Jolie's lips, Jennifer Lopez's backside (butt implants), Naomi Campbell's cheekbones, and so forth. Plastic surgery addicts consider these celebrities the epitome of beauty, and will go to any lengths to achieve their desired qualities. Yet, addicts fail to realize that each person has unique features, and trying to tailor our looks behind someone else's is a recipe for disaster.
In Michael's case, the person he wanted to emulate was Diana Ross
