If altering your appearance boosts your happiness and self-esteem, the two can live in harmony, says Alex Light.
I've thought a lot about whether changing your body can co-exist with body acceptance, because there appears to be a very clear paradox: how can you accept your body yet want it to look different?
And, of course, for the vast majority of us, that's just not possible. Now, yes, in an ideal world, body neutrality would reign and how we looked would be our last priority. But that's an ideal world that's far from our current reality, so it's vital that we have compassion for anyone who feels that aesthetic treatments are valuable parts of their lives.
It's a form of self-care that makes me feel good about myself. As well as affording compassion, we need to respect bodily autonomy: getting any kind of treatment is an individual's choice.
