In recent years, with the development of economy and technology and the expansion of human demand, each newborn industry and newly emerging things appear unceasingly, of which the aesthetic plastic surgery industry is a typical exampal. As this industry develops rapidly, its influence is becoming larger and larger. Nowadays, more and more people start to hold the expectation that they enter tide-up courtyard , hoping to become more attractive and more handsome based on their own normal foundation.Indeed, in the reality, some people realize their dreams that they has transformed from "ugly ducks" to "white swans" through reshaping their appearances. However, others aren' t so lucky, they had hoped they became more beautiful , but the result is around the other corner, suffering these people' s physical and emotional enormous injury.As for the advantages and disadvantages bought to people by this industry, different people have different viewpoints, varying from agreement to disagreement, unable to decide which is right. Because aesthetic plastic surgery is just like a double-edged sword, which is involved to many ehical issues in the course of implementing:It may bring some "good" to us, may "evil" as well. The aesthetic plastic surgery is a new industry, which is used to meet nomal people' s persuit of appearances. Therefore, aesthetic plastic surgery brought in many ethical controvercies:Whether the human does have the right to interfere with his or her own body? People' s interfering with their own bodies harms their dignity? Whether it affects social justice and equlity? Does the human merely pay attention to semblance form but not intrinsic value? These question as well as chaotic management to this industry make us comfused to this industry.As far as this issue is concerned, I hold the view that. First, aesthetic plastic surgery is a new thing with human denand level rising,which is a symbol of human civilization progress as the social development certain stage' s inevitable product. Therefore , if we take some effective measures to set the standard and guide for this industry ,we believe this industry will have a broad development prospect and bring beauty-loving people gospel, improving their life quality. Second, aesthetic plastic surgery manifested us to respect the individual choice to tolerant the multi-dimensional values ehthical spirit, which is consistent with humanist ideal advocated today. Therefore, standardly guiding this industry and making it healthily developing contribute to the construction of humanist harmonious society. In addition, while we carry on the the theory and conform for this industry healthy development, we also should pay attention to propagandaing the intrinsic beauty of people, making the whole society realize the transformation that people pay attention to the intrinsic value and intrinsic quality.
