Don’t we all make sacrifices to please someone else at some point of time in our life? What exactly makes it very wrong? Isn’t it a person’s prerogative to go through the trouble to look good so he/she can please someone else? If that is true, then who is anyone to deem it right or wrong? Isn’t it just personal preference?
Absolutely it's personal preference. It isn't necessarily that it's wrong per se, maybe misguided is a better word?

I would just rather see women who have plastic surgery do it for themselves, for whatever the reason may be. Not at the request of the man in their lives. It's almost an automatic put-down. Get a face lift, boob job, tummy tuck etc. because I don't like you the way you are and want you to look better for me.

Maybe it's just the two women I know who had it done, and deeply regretted it later, is coloring my opinion.

In the broader sense though, I don't think plastic surgery is wrong. Every individual has the right to live and do as they wish in their lives as long as they aren't hurting anyone.
