Doctors perform an abdominoplasty surgery at the Santa Casa de Misericordia hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Wednesday March  21, 2012. The hospital focuses on reconstructive operations for burn victims and people with serious deformations, but it also provides discounted cosmetic procedures. At least two dozen, mostly public hospitals in Rio alone offer discounted or sometimes free cosmetic surgeries to low income people, according to a website aimed at informing potential patients. Beauty, the Brazilian doctors argue, is more than skin deep, and by treating what their patients view as physical flaws they are often also healing their psyches. (AP Photo/Felipe Dana)
