The essay explores the ethical implications of air-brushing models in advertisements and its impact on body image perceptions. It discusses the tension between the advantages of retouching for advertisers and the negative effects on individuals' self-esteem. The author argues that designers have a responsibility to consider the consequences of their work, yet acknowledges that market demands often dictate the continuation of such practices. The balance between ethical design and profitability remains a contentious issue in the advertising industry.
