Do cosmetic surgery patients really come in asking to look like movie stars?

Perhaps in Beverly Hills, patients ask to look like movie stars but not out in the "real world" of plastic surgery. First of all, it would not be possible to grant such a request. Secondly, a properly motivated cosmetic surgery patient should want a result that looks natural, not operated upon, and is one that makes them look "better, not different!"
