An increasing number of young people in China are getting plastic surgery to improve their appearances and start new lives.
The cosmetic surgery centers in South Korea are crowded with Chinese patients, especially during summer and winter holidays.
According to China Daily, figures from one of the centers in South Korea show that in 2012 some 25 percent of its Chinese customers were college students.
They traveled to South Korea to go under the knife, aiming to improve their self-confidence and secure better job offers.
Most number of students were getting surgery on the eyes and nose, while an operation to reshape the face, including reconfiguring the jawbone and liposuction, was also popular.
