Extreme Makeover: a Threat to Teenagers?
You see them everywhere – magazines featuring emaciated teen models with brash, defiant looks that say “We express ourselves,”; their arms and ankles glistening with fashion accessories. The definition of “cool chick” in another magazine is a glossy-lipped, half-woman, half-child peeking ambivalently behind a set of heavily mascara eyes.” I am confection,” she seems to say, her body eloquently displaying a padded push up bra. Such teen marketing tactics have succeeded in making their point. Girls, as young as ten, have made the word “diet” part of their vocabulary.
Body image and weight control have occupied mainstream culture since the beginning of the 20th Century when film and media images created prototypes of ideal male and female bodies, men with swashbuckling muscles and women with slender waists and boyish hips. The effect of teen marketing and media images on our teenage population cannot be overstated. It is not surprising then that teenagers of both genders have distorted body images that often lead to <a href=”http://bodymakeovers.com/mommymakover.html”>Extreme body makeover</a>.
What is even more disturbing is the number of cosmetic procedures that have been performed on teens. According to a report published in a website, in 2003, more than 223,000 cosmetic procedures were performed on patients 18 years of age or younger and 39,000 of those were surgical procedures that were incidental in nature nose-shaping, breast lifts, breast augmentation, liposuction and tummy tuck.
One study of adolescent girls shows that 53% of American girls are unhappy with their bodies. This figure grows to 78% by the time the girls reach seventeen—a situation which accounts for the 5-10 million girls and women who are struggling with eating disorders.
What I’m trying say is to evolve into the personality that you would admire. Become the person that you desire in this <a href=”http://bodymakeovers.com/inhometraining.html”>Extreme Makeover</a>. A cheerful and powerful personality stands out far above physical appearance and clothing. Make sure you have addressed the importance of personality in your extreme makeover.
