Research in Marketing research includes:

Social comparison theory and the effects of ideal media images on the acceptance of cosmetic surgery. Contemporary social media tools such as Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Snap Chat, television shows, movies, countless advertisements, as well as other media images have revealed a radical increase in cultural expectations for attractiveness. The aim of this study is to investigate relationships between internalised cultural beliefs for attractiveness, such as objectified body consciousness, state self-esteem, sociocultural attitudes towards appearance, and acceptance of cosmetic surgery.
