The search for allure brings many women knocking on the doors of cosmetic surgery clinics. Movies, with those nubile starlets, serve as stimulants in a society, which derives its values and trends from films. Traditionally, cosmetic surgery procedures were sought to enhance the prospective bride's appeal.
