In fiction, the people most likely to get plastic surgery or other kinds of cosmetic procedures are unpleasant (and probably rich). Maybe they mention a boob job in a throwaway line, regularly get Botox or lip fillers, or spend a whole episode getting a nose job. Regardless of the exact procedure, this instantly characterizes the character as vain and appearance-obsessed. Having the money to spend on cosmetic procedures is an easy way to show a character is a Rich Bitch. In addition, this could be used to show that these characters have insecurities about their appearance for all their haughtiness. Because Vanity Is Feminine, this trope is mainly used for women or dandyish men. In a High School setting, the Alpha Bitch might mention getting plastic surgery, and her 'artificial' beauty will contrast the 'natural' beauty of the Girl Next Door. The same can be said for the Obnoxious Entitled Housewife in a neighborhood setting. In real life, people get plastic surgery for a variety of non-vanity reasons, such as recovering from accidents. Attitudes towards plastic surgery vary across cultures; in South Korea, for example, it is relatively common. Will often overlap with Fake Boobs, and Breast Expansion, as breast augmentation is a common cosmetic surgery in a setting with Buxom Beauty Standard. Examples of underage girls may fall into Troubling Unchildlike Behavior if they are trying to be Younger Than They Look. Compare Just the Way You Are, where someone decides against getting cosmetic surgery and embraces their natural appearance, Makeup Is Evil, where makeup (a temporary way to enhance one's appearance) is also associated with vanity and villains, and Vain Sorceress, a villainess who uses magic, not cosmetic surgery, to remain youthful and beautiful, and Looks Worth Killing For. See also Magic Plastic Surgery and Surgical Impersonation, which turn you into a whole new person. Examples |

Downplayed in Us. Kitty's Establishing Character Moment shows off that she has had (subtle) plastic surgery since Adelaide saw her last. Although she is the matriarch of a well-off Nuclear Family, she spends the rest of her screentime miserable at her husband and sniping both at and about him and her twin daughters. | |

While not a bitch, Summer is the ditziest member of Girls5eva and the one who lives the most lavish lifestyle. A season two episode has her continuously deny she's ever gotten work done even though it's transparently obvious that she has. When Dawn tries to get her to stop, citing societal pressure on women, she eventually agrees with Summer getting cosmetic surgery done as long as she gets it done somewhere safe. | |

The Good Life: In a rare male example, a minor recurring plot point is Jerry's ongoing rivalry in the company with the smug and odious fellow executive Snetterton, who it is rumoured to have had plastic surgery, and at least a nose job. Towards the end of the show when "Sir" is planning to retire, and they're both competing to be named his successor, Jerry even tries to find evidence the rumour is true hoping it will be his ace to get the job, much to Tom and Barbara's amusement. | |

Grand Theft Auto V: Michael's wife is materialistic, unfaithful (though Michael's also guilty of this) and shrewish. She's also said to have had multiple plastic surgeries since coming to Los Santos; in one argument, Michael tells her that she seems to be most worried about what body part she'll put under the knife next. She gets better over the course of the game. | |

Raising Hope: One episode has Jimmy getting drunk and dreaming of a world where he didn't conceive Hope. One change is that his love interest Sabrina has gotten breast implants after her job made their female employees wear skimpy outfits. This version of Sabrina is also much more jaded and mean than in the regular timeline. Subverted in an episode where the Chance family finds out that Sabrina comes from a wealthy family. They end up getting invited to a party at her family home. Sabrina warns Jimmy that the people in attendance are all awful people. One of them is a woman who had various plastic surgeries, something Sabrina gleefully points out. However, it becomes clear that she and the rest of the guests are actually nice people and Sabrina is just lashing out because of her insecurities. |

Played with in Sharp Objects. Jackie is Adora's best childhood friend and Camille's surrogate mom. Camille mentions that she has obviously just had a facelift, which is still swollen and frightening to look at. Although she shows Camille more love than Adora ever did or does, Jackie is also shown getting into vicious arguments with her "friends" and clearly lived in denial that Adora murdered Marion. | |

Smallville. "Facade": The villain, Elise Fine, is a cosmetic surgeon who has had work done herself, having undergone seven surgeries to get what she considered the perfect look. She performed an operation on her daughter to treat her acne using Kryptonite. Elise is shown as callous to her daughter's discomfort and the trauma other people have suffered because of her experiments. Her daughter Abigail herself is an inversion, being a kind person who is being bullied by others including her mother, which drives her to undergo her mother's operation. While it works her beautiful, it also causes her to drive anyone insane if she kisses them, because of the Kryptonite that was used. Abigail is more of a reluctant villain and is portrayed as sympathetic throughout the episode. Dawn Stiles, the Alpha Bitch villain of "Spirit", was voted "most likely to have plastic surgery" according to the high school yearbook. |

In an episode of Victorious, Trina (a diva who thinks she's better than everyone) expresses interest in getting cosmetic surgery. Given it's a kid's show, it's not stated what surgery she wants, but she is shown briefly looking down at her breasts. Unlike most examples of this trope, Trina doesn't seem to have the approval of her parents to get the procedure, as she mentions she has to wait until she's eighteen. This is likely due to her status as The Unfavorite in her family. | |

Let Me Call You Sweetheart plays with this, with its overall message seeming to be less that getting cosmetic surgery is a sign of being a bad person and more that it won't fix a crappy personality or poor attitude. It's revealed that Suzanne Reardon received plastic surgery to make her physically beautiful but she subsequently became conceited and hedonistic with little regard for others' feelings. It's indicated that she was never an especially pleasant person to begin with, being extremely envious of others and whining about the unfairness of it while doing little to improve herself and overlooking her other qualities. Getting plastic surgery merely amplified or added to her negative traits while still not fully removing her insecurities; she would even tell lies to her friends about how she was always considered beautiful and had to put up with other girls being envious. Averted with Barbara Tompkins, who is depicted as a genuinely kind and polite young woman who merely lacked confidence due to her insecurities around her looks. After receiving surgery, she blossoms both in her professional and personal lives, and she's never depicted as a bad person for it. In fact, her biggest issue is that she's too polite to tell Dr Smith all his attention is making her uncomfortable, not wanting to seem ungrateful. |

Happens a few times in Glee: Santana starts Season Two as the head cheerleader and the most popular girl in school. However, the cheer coach discovers that she got a boob job over the summer so she can get more attention from guys. Her coach disapproves of underaged plastic surgery and demotes her from head cheerleader. Played with in an episode when Rachel considers getting a nose job. She wants her nose to look like head cheerleader Quinn. However, it's then revealed that Quinn got a nose job when she was younger. Unusually for this trope, this is used to give Quinn some more depth as opposed to marking her as an Alpha Bitch (which she started off as). |

Daria: In "Too Cute", a girl called Brooke in Quinn's grade gets a nose job from popular new plastic surgeon Dr. Shar, making Quinn insecure about her own looks and her position in the Fashion Club. She badgers Daria into accompanying her on a visit to the unscrupulous Dr. Shar, who tricks the gullible Quinn into believing she needs to undergo $6000 worth of cosmetic surgery that would only make her look ridiculous (while also offering to give Daria surgery that will make her look like Quinn does nownote Jane: "What do you wanna look like THAT loser for, she needs $6000 worth of plastic surgery!"). Daria is forced to admit to Quinn that her looks are already perfect in an attempt to dissuade her, to no avail. Fortunately, while Quinn is desperately trying to find the money, Brooke suffers horrible aftereffects from her surgeries as her new nose caves in and her plumped-up lips slide, discrediting Dr. Shar and alleviating Quinn's worries about needing to keep up. | |

In The Cinderella Murder, washed-up actress Madison is vain, shallow, and manipulative, and it's obvious she's had some cosmetic surgery on her face, including Botox and fillers. Laurie observes that while Madison is an attractive woman, she wonders if she wouldn't have looked more attractive without the plastic surgery, especially as she's not even forty yet. | |

Two and a Half Men: Judith is mentioned to have gotten various procedures, including breast implants and liposuction. The bitch part comes in because she's paying for the surgeries using her husband's alimony, to the point he can barely afford to support himself. Evelyn Harper, Charlie and Alan's emotionally abusive mother, has been mentioned to have had cosmetic work done. In one episode, she claims that Charlie's fiancée will blow all his money on unnecessary plastic surgery, and insists her surgeries were necessary. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Spoiled Rich is a Rich Bitch who emotionally abuses her daughter — it's implied that Spoiled is the main reason why said daughter is such a bully to her own classmates. In her first appearance in the present day, Spoiled Rich's snout is much daintier than most other mares', subtly implying she got a nose job. This is all but confirmed when a later episode has a flashback revealing that, when she was a young mare, she had a bigger, rounder snout than most other mares. | |

Exaggerated and parodied in Doctor Who with the rich and haughty last human Cassandra from "The End of the World" and "New Earth", who has had so many plastic surgeries that she's been reduced to what Rose Tyler rather accurately describes as a "bitchy trampoline". | |

The Mick: Sabrina, the niece of the show's protagonist, is extremely spoiled due to her wealthy upbringing. One episode revolves around her getting breast implants with her mother's approval. Her aunt finds this irresponsible and tries to talk her out of the surgery. In the end, Sabrina doesn't get the implants, but only because they broke while she was trying to see how they would look on her. | |

In GCB, Cricket gets breast implants for her daughter, who acts as the Alpha Bitch for the current generation at high school. It's implied that all the popular girls have gotten implants, with one of Cricket's friends mentioning she's planning on giving her daughter the surgery for Christmas. This ends up backfiring on Cricket's daughter when she suffers a Wardrobe Malfunction because her clothes weren't big enough for her new breasts. | |

Exaggerated in Escape from L.A.. One group of villains is a Beverly-Hills-based cult of plastic surgery-addicted murderers, led by a Mad Doctor called the Surgeon General, who have had so many implants and face-lifts that they need to harvest and implant fresh body parts into themselves in order to keep themselves alive. | |

South Park: In "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society", Bebe's breasts start to develop and become more noticeable, which attracts all the guys in the fourth grade, but earns her the ire of the other girls who call her a slut because of it. Wendy, who was one of those girls, eventually resorts to getting breast implants in a desperate attempt to get the guys to notice her, resulting in her having ridiculous boobs that only wind up getting her laughed at, as by that time all the guys had gotten over Bebe. | |

In Addams Family Values, Wednesday is forced by her stuck-up summer camp cabin buddies to participate in a ghost story-telling game where each participant adds to the story. She ends it with the punchline that the ghost makes all of their old noses grow back, prompting all of the other girls to scream in sheer horror. | |

Although it happens to a bitchy character in Dark Places, it serves to make her more pathetic and adds sympathy to her bitchiness. When Libby catches up with Kristy, she's a Single Mom Stripper and Jaded Washout but still expects Libby to feel sorry for her after she falsely accused Libby's brother Ben of rape (although, in fairness, she was also manipulated by corrupt police). She also has an extremely crooked boob job that she was convinced into getting by her "manager"/pimp. | |

Invoked and played with in Goodnight Mommy. The mother has had a bump removed from her nose which leads her twin sons to become convinced that she's been replaced, especially as she returns from the surgery cold, distant, and aggressive, and she won't show them what's under the bandages. It makes a lot more sense once it's revealed that Lukas is Dead All Along and she's responding to the stress of losing him while Elias pretends he's still alive. | |

Charmed (1998) offers two examples: The Season 1 finale plays it straight with Joanne Hertz, Piper's former classmate who married rich and got her own segment at The Food Network. She is very condescending towards Piper, and when Phoebe starts naming random facts about her to prove to Piper that they're in a time loop, she adds that Joanne got a nose job. In a later loop, Piper lashes back at Joanne and mentions the thing too. Season 5 subverts it with Jessica, the fiancé of Paige's ex boyfriend Glenn. While under a hex, Paige brushes Jessica off as a bimbette who got her boobs and nose done, but ultimately her antagonism is one-sided and rooted in her lingering feelings for Glenn; Jessica, on her part, is actually a nice person who genuinely loves Glenn. |

Frasier: Maris, Niles's thoroughly unpleasant first wife, is repeatedly mentioned to be getting plastic surgery, to the point it seems she's addicted to it. Niles's similarly unpleasant second wife Mel is actually a plastic surgeon herself (one of Maris's, in fact). It's heavily implied she's had a lot of work done, as she doesn't look old enough to have a son the age he is. |
