"Bring your classroom to life".
Plastic surgery is not a modern phenomenon. It started over 400 years ago with a spate of botched nose jobs, so badly engineered that the nose would fall off if the wind blew too hard. It marked the birth of a whole new obsession. Surgeons gradually became entranced with the idea that not only could they fix the body, but now they could even fix our sense of self-esteem.
