Plastic surgery and diminishing returns [2007]

A reader notes:

I pass almost all of the time, but I am considering getting some additional work done. The only thing is that it’s going to cost about $5,000, and that’s a lot of money for me. What are your thoughts?

My reply:

There’s a point when surgery is a question of diminishing returns. If you pass 90% of the time, is it worth $5K and a lot of recovery to pass 93%? Only you can answer that, but there’s a certain point where most of us pretty much reach our threshold.
