“Rather than shock tactics, I’m looking at the way we feel about subversive images of beauty, as the topic of plastic surgery is so subtle and nuanced, touching our ideals of beauty and body image as well as the complex psychology behind it.”
Jonathan Yeo, 2011
'You're Only Young Twice' was the result of eighteen months of work, in which Yeo looked at the ever growing of phenomenon of plastic surgery. Working from archival photos and observing cosmetic surgeons at first hand the works show patients in pre and post-operative states.
