I was shocked but 'devout' JWs had all kinds of plastic surgery here. One elder's wife felt she had bags or something under her eyes and said it was a minor surgery - I don't think so - she looked like someone had blacked her eyes and unreal swelling. Scary! Couple other women same hall had face lifts - full face lifts and eye lifts - another one had her eyes done - eye lift or the extra skin removed. So many implants (silicon valley) - young gals - age 18 to 40, I'd say. Unreal - they are so brave. Many travel to Utah for cosmetic related surgeries - drastic price drop and a group went there for surgeries.
One other gal traveled to Guatemala for implants - she felt perfectly safe going. Some brave JWs! Another 2 had cosmetic surgery on their noses - one had lots of issues afterward but she'd had hers done 3 xs. I knew of lots of cosmetic surgeries here. I couldn't believe since I assumed they'd all be perfect in the new system they blathered about all the time. I don't think the elders would have objected but then again - I don't know and I don't think they cared one way or the other.
I heard a shrink one day comment 'if you're not happy with it change it or get it fixed' after saying previously - year earlier - that implants are a sign of insecurity. I couldn't believe and wondered what she was having done herself - sure enough - not implants but 'mini lift' - swear it was so mini I didn't notice. If anyone is brave enough so be it. My gay friends tell me implants are still very dangerous and nothing but problems/lolol. I've heard nose jobs generally have to be redone because the bone grows back - something like that. One JW told me if she could go back in time she would never have done it. Oh, she, too, had face lift and implants. One even had her arms done - the flab. WOW - just go lift weights and fo-get about it.
