A great read
Such an interesting post by a Cosmetic Surgeon. After working as a Cosmetic Nurse for 6 years I have to agree with the sentiments below. The lengths people go to to achieve a certain look can be quite astounding and have terrifying consequences. It’s why I aim to help my Clients achieve their goals using Endermologie. All of the benefits and none of the risk.

For generations, when humans didn’t like something about their own face or envied another’s, not much could have been done. Most people were too busy struggling to survive to worry about vanity. Then came the beauty industry and it’s manipulations (see previous posts), plastic surgery, and tons of free time. As it has become easier to address cosmetic concerns, there has been either an intentional or unintentional skewing of features from what is even naturally possible. This is also partly due to overcompensation for a weak feature by swinging completely the other direction, and by the observation that if a slight modification is good, then a large modification will be even better. Throw in the fact that most of our “idols” have modified some of their features beyond what is naturally possible, and it is no wonder we are where we are today: a society that is quickly loosing touch with reality. People are now walking around with lips, cheeks, noses, breasts, butts, and eyes that are NOT naturally possible, yet the rest of us are starting to believe that not only is it natural, but also desirable. Naturally harmonious features are being modified to fit this new warped reality. Most of us in the beauty industry are sitting idly by, or worse, heavily contributing to this problem. We are sheep herders leading society to the slaughter. It is time to ask: are you going to be a sheep?
