Professor Ava Shamban a Los Angeles-based cosmetic dermatologist, says that Angelina has the most requested look among American women-exaggerated eyes, lips and cheeks:
"Angelina Jolie, with her exquisite looks, is the current gold standard of beauty in the states and in the West in general right now...And that's not about to change. The exotic look, like (actresses) Halle Berry and Penelope Cruz, is here to stay, and Angelina is the ultimate embodiment of that."
But she also warns that surgeons have a big responsibility:
"Features like Angelina's won't fit every face and we must take care with that"

Australian College of Cosmetic Surgery president Michael Zacharia said requests for Jolie's looks were becoming increasingly frequent:
"It's common to hear people say 'I want lips or cheekbones like Angelina Jolie's', and her association with Brad Pitt has just accentuated this"
Sydney born sexual health psychologist Professor Jane Ussher said the trend was dangerous because of Angelina's abnormal looks:
"She is arguably a human representation of a cartoon character, similar to those Bratz dolls, and virtually no-one looks like that...If you buy into the idea that that (look) is perfect then you'll never feel good about yourself because you'll never attain it."(SOURCE)
