I've never thought about it before. But thats exactly what it is!!!
Sorry for this bit which you may not want to read
SI is a form of coping through replacing emotional pain wit physical pain, etc (with other causes). Cosmetic surgery is just a way of getting rid of that emotional pain, which they se themselves as 'imperfect' and not 'adequet'. Thus, cosmetic surgery is SH in another wrapper!!! (which people pay for)
