Plastic surgery helps man with burn marks
By Helen Brown
2 January
A man received plastic surgery at King’s Hospital last month to treat burn marks he suffered one year ago.
John Wilson had plastic surgery to repair some of his burnt skin. Doctors worked on several problem areas, including his face and neck. The operation was a great success.
Last January, Mr Wilson was caught in a horrible campus fire, and his skin was badly burnt. For the past year, he had to live with terrible burn marks on his face and body. He decided to have surgery to help him feel more confident about his appearance.
Mr Wilson is very happy with the treatment. He is especially pleased with the results on his face. “Now I can go out just like a normal guy!” he said.

Woman regrets plastic surgery A woman who has recently had plastic surgery on her face now regrets the decision. The surgery took place more than a month ago, but Ella Edwards still suffers from daily pain. This is stopping her from returning to a normal life. She has been to several hospitals and all the doctors say that the pain is unlikely to stop any time soon. She may need to take painkillers for a long time. In addition, Miss Edwards says the surgery makes her look unnatural and that she is unable to make certain facial expressions. Miss Edwards is unhappy with the results of the surgery. “I wanted to become more beautiful, but it hasn’t turned out well at all. I really regret having the surgery,” she said. “I’m very anxious about it.”

Tapescript
Alice:Hello!My name is Alice and today I'm reporting on the plastic surgery industry. Plastic surgery is undoubtedly becoming more and more popular. Every year, millions of people decide to have plastic surgery to change their looks. You might think only women want plastic surgery,but recent research shows that, surprisingly, about one third of all plastic surgery patients are men. The average age of patients is falling and experts believe the industry will only continue to grow in the future.
Then why is plastic surgery so popular these days Many people see it as the easiest way to help improve their appearance .
Some of these patients have obvious problems like burn marks,while others are just unhappy with their looks, by improving their appearance ,plastic surgery can help people in both groups build their self- confidence .
However,it's also important to consider the disadvantages . Plastic surgery is very expensive. In addition,any kind of surgery carries serious health risks.
Patients may suffer health problems after failed plastic surgery operations .
In some extreme cases,patients may even die during operations .
Finally,the results of plastic surgery might not be what people expect.
This is especially true for teenagers,as their bodies are still growing.
Doctors strongly advise against plastic surgery for people under eighteen unless it is necessary,for example,to treat burn marks.
It is important to weigh up all of the advantages and disadvantages before deciding whether or not to have plastic surgery. Remember:think before you act.

Plastic surgery: beauty or beast
【Para.1】 Plastic surgery is becoming more and more popular these days. Plastic surgery might help people feel good about themselves, but its negative consequences outweigh its benefits.
I think people should never have plastic surgery.
【Para. 2】 First, people do not always get satisfactory results from plastic surgery. Nowadays more and more people have to go back under the knife because the first surgery was not what they wanted. No one can make sure that the result of plastic surgery will be exactly what the patient expected.
Possible version
Main point
Reason 1
Evidence
【Para. 3】 In addition, plastic surgery can be dangerous. Some people suffer terrible pain and have serious health problems after surgery. People should not risk their health to change their physical appearance. The problem is often the negative self-image in their mind, rather than anything wrong with their body. Instead of surgery, they should first try safer methods to improve their body image, such as having a healthier lifestyle.
Possible version
Reason 2
【Para. 4】Moreover, people may get addicted to plastic surgery. People have plastic surgery because they want to improve their appearance. However, there is no perfection. People undergo plastic surgery once tend to get more operations to change other parts of their body afterwards.
【Para. 5】For these reasons, people should never have plastic surgery. If they want to improve their confidence in their appearance, they should think of other methods that are less risky , such as exercise.
