Modern Beauty

Today society is extremely concerned with youth, good looks and physical fitness. The image of the "successful individual" that the media project is one of youth, attractiveness and perfection. Aggressive advertising campaigns convince us to buy products that promise to improve our image. More and more people go to plastic surgeons, health spas and gyms.

DISCUSS:

• Do you agree with the idea of "youth at all costs"?

• Are you satisfied with the way you look?
