Dr Jane Park is researching the burgeoning cosmetic surgery industry in Korea. Does anyone else find it worrying that the ideal for female beauty is a childish cartoon drawing? Why can't we teach girls (and women) to admire fit and healthy-looking adults?"Celebrated beauties such as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Miranda Kerr and Keira Knightley don't look alike - but there are some common defining features: small face, huge eyes, pointy chins, full lips, flawless skin, little noses. They look like they don't age. That, coupled with super-skinny bodies, makes them look almost virtual - like anime characters." - Dr Jane Park, Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney
