Chasing Beauty offers a female patient/participant peek into
the glamorized but risky cosmetic surgery industry.
Jamieson's story details the struggles of an ordinarily ugly
girl who sought beauty to escape low-class life and family
neglect. It describes her confusion between image and
self-worth; of reliance upon looks to satisfy self identity.
Chasing Beauty examines the trial of growing from a
neglected child into a woman. Lacking parental guidance, the
author chose the media and men as guides toward a strong
feminine existence. Chasing Beauty questions the relentless
cultural enforcement of feminine perfection and warns
against yielding to the siren call of youth. Jamieson
instead comes to champion emotional substance and
simplification for survival. The author's extensive surgical
journey ends at the age when many women are just beginning
to consider cosmetic surgery to preserve youth or beauty. By
only age 36 she is tired of ""Chasing Beauty,"" and of the
social rule that she must.
