Why do people get jealous when others have plastic surgery?

There is so much hate? Why do you care?
Even with botox and fillers there is jealousy. Before you says it's because it looks bad....it usually doesn't. Even if it does, why do yoy care that someone else looks bad? I think people are jealous because it's "cheating " in their opinion. I have seen ugly women get gorgeous with nose jobs. I have not had anything done but I will as I age. |

No one is jealous of what Courtney Cox and many others have done to their faces.
I get that it's easier to claim other people are "jealous" than to admit regret for messing with your face, but while "good" plastic surgery does exist, there's so, so, so much terrible stuff that people do. |

I have never felt jealous of someone else getting plastic surgery. I view it as a personal decision that has nothing to do with me.
However, I have had a friend get upset that I did not sufficiently compliment her new nose job. I don't know, I felt awkward. It looks nice, which is what I said. I think she wanted me to gush, which is not who I am as a person. If you are going to get plastic surgery, do it for yourself. Some people will criticize, some will be jealous, some will think it looks bad, whatever. Don't expect people to fall all over themselves telling you how hot you are. Do it for yourself or don't do it at all. |

It’s a total DC thing. They think there’s something wrong with being shallow.
I for one appreciate them keeping the bar nice and low. |

I see this a lot.
If I don't get plastic surgery then you shouldn't. It's not fair It's cheating. |

Jealous?
Who cares. I am interested in the whole process and would love to hear/see anyone's procedures and plastic surgery. Please find me and tell me all about it. |

No jealousy, just pity.
You're either insecure or you're in an industry that links your looks to your income. Neither is a very desirable situation. |

| I don't get jealous, and I do think most of the time it looks bad. I feel some resentment, though, that women feel the need to do this to themselves. Accept who you are, which is imperfect, and don't try to freeze the aging process. |

I don’t care, and don’t comment, even on celebrities.
But that being said, this whole premise that people are “jealous” is laughable. |

I don’t judge or care, and I don’t comment.
But I also don’t bring flowers, gush over the results, or treat the person who elected to go under the knife the same as someone who had to get surgery. No, I’m not going to text to wish you luck, check in on you, or listen to your litany of complaints about soreness/bruising/having to wear a brace or some type of supportive device, etc. No, I’m not volunteering to bring a meal or whatever. You get no support or special attention. I save that for people who HAD to go through surgery. I really don’t give an eff how it went, or if you are happy with the results. |

+1. I took myself off of a text chain that a friend started about her elective surgery. She also told all about Herrrrrr Jourrrnneeeeyyyyy on social media, complete with its own hashtag. Gross. |

There are really only two answers to this question:
1. It is not jealousy, it is judgment. Some people think that spending money on plastic surgery is a dumb decision- shallow and vain, and risky given so many bad results. 2. It is envy. Some people would probably get plastic surgery but they don't think they have the money for it. It is really not complicated. |

| I’ve never been jealous of anyone who has plastic surgery. Not something I want to do myself, but one daughter had her breasts done and I’m happy for her. |
