Influence of closed ones and body image satisfaction impacts cosmetic surgery intent in an individual. Magazine is found to be the preferred medium to advertise about cosmetic surgery. Findings reflect the collectivist nature of these societies that looks for significant others in the usage of a hedonic service. Also, people of emerging economies are increasingly conscious of their appearance and are interested in rectifying it, if they want to change.
