Verbatim
“Plastic surgery exploded in the United States in the 1990s and 2000s following a surge in advertising... At the time, a 'natural' body—one untouched by scalpels or needles—was the ideal, and the cultural norm was to condemn people who went under the knife for the sake of vanity”

Professors, researchers and think-tank analysts quoted on the strength of their research rather than a clinical role. Citations are counted by an automated scan of UK press coverage and may be incomplete. Roles, biographies and contact details are researched and human-reviewed before they appear here; anything not yet reviewed is simply absent rather than shown unverified.
