...little something here or there to improve your appearance. Would you deny someone reducing a huge shnozz if it bothered them? How about dying their hair? Getting braces? Dressing fashionably? Wearing makeup? Or getting rid of acne scarring, birthmarks? It's all a matter of degree.
And as far as aging goes, like I said, if you're out in the dating scene, how many guys look at older women when the pool of women much younger than them is such a draw? Is there anything wrong with a little tiny nip or tuck, or smoothing out a few wrinkles if it gives a person self confidence? Try to step in their shoes if you possibly can. Hollywood is not the real world and not what most people want.
These aren't great rhetorical questions as I think I answered something against your point on many of them. Of course, I cannot and would not want to force people but I think it is sad when people use cosmetic surgery, especially for minor blemishes.
