Different attitudes

In conclusion, we can say that the three texts from your source material present different attitudes related to cosmetic surgery.

Text 1 presents a critical attitude of the media and of the fashion industry, which persuades people to appeal to cosmetic surgery to achieve unreasonable beauty standards.

Text 2 presents a critical attitude regarding cosmetic surgery through the perspective of parents whose teenage daughters want to appeal to breast implants to be accepted in their peer groups.

Text 3 is rather objective when it comes to cosmetic surgery in Asian countries. The views expressed in the article are neither positive nor negative, yet a famous Harvard professor believes that beauty should evolve, regardless if that means appealing to cosmetic surgery.
