Do You Think It’s Unhealthy To Get Plastic Surgery Because You Want To Look Like Another Person?

[Anonymous]

Is it unhealthy to get plastic surgery to look like someone else?

[Wharvey98]

I think plastic surgery outside of reconstructive surgery is ridiculous. There are far better things people could devote time and money too, but instead Americans alone spent 16 billion dollars on cosmetic surgery in 2016 alone.
www.plasticsurgery.org/.../more-than-16-billion-spent-on-cosmetic-plastic-surgery
Think of all the lives that could be saved with 16 billion dollars, think of what could be done for the environment. How much food could that provide? Or clean water? Or life saving surgery?
An average chemotherapy treatment costs 30,000 dollars in total. Meaning with the money spent on cosmetic surgery in 2016 you could pay for 533,333 chemotherapy treatments. Or 16,000 heart transplants, or 40,000 kidney transplants, or 26,666,666 sets of childhood vaccines. These are only a few of the thousands of better uses 16 billion dollars could be put to use for, and that’s only the money spent on cosmetic surgery in America. People always say ohhh I’d love to help out with this or that, or someone should do something about this or that. Well imagine if everyone who was spending thousands of dollars on plastic surgery a year put that money to better use. Like feeding starving children, or providing clean water to those who don’t have access to it, or investing in renewable energy, or cleaning up the garbage that humans are throwing into the ocean, or literally anything else of consequential value. Think about what could be accomplished then.

[Asker]

People, including myself I will admit, are too self absorbed and into themselves to do those things. We want the procedures in the hopes we will feel better about our miserable selves, and we will like who we are, we want self love and self acceptance and that’s why we get these surgeries, as vain as that may sound

[Wharvey98]

Fixing a disfigurement is a little different from a vanity surgery, for instance I think cons metic surgery to fix a cleft lip of palette is totally fine. I would say the same about the scar you mentioned from your tracheotomy. Those are understandable, that’s a corrective surgery not a vanity surgery. What upsets me are the boobjobs and facelifts and lip fillers and all the other unnecessary things people do because they can’t be satisfied with themselves as they are. So you have a mole on your cheek, who cares? Oh your boobs aren’t as big as you’d like them to be, who cares? Oh do you think your nose is too big? Deal with it. There are plenty of people with real disfigurements who have to live the rest of their lives that way.
Also I’d like to clarify I’m not stalking your posts, I just saw you tell one of the other people on this thread about your scar. And sorry if I sound a bit harsh, I have trouble with that sometimes.

[Asker]

Yeah because I have the scar, and don’t know if I can get surgery for it yet, cause I don’t know if I can go under general anesthesia, I need to see a doctor about that, I want to get one other flaw fixed instead, my nose. It may sound vain to you but I dont feel it is

[GoodManDave]

Hmmm. I suppose there are circumstances where it would make perfect sense. Someone having to go FAR undercover, perhaps... someone having to replace someone, maybe.

If they KNEW they would make more money than the surgery cost, and they weren't going overboard... I could understand certain impersonators doing it, if it was going to make a good income. It wouldn't be unhealthy.

I think trying to enhance a look isn't a problem. I've done haircuts and minor stuff like that because I know it's looked good on a celeb that people tell me I look like. I try to wear stuff that other celebs in my body type would look good. Not so much to look like them, but because I know it works for them, and if we happen to look alike, it might just work for me. Not an issue.

If someone is just doing it to resemble a celebrity that they look nothing like, then it's a bigger issue. If they're going into debt, or obsessive about getting surgery to drastically change their look, it's a problem.

[Asker]

What about getting a hump on their nose removed?

[GoodManDave]

Something to look better, or fix a small issue? No worries. I've had several friends with Amblyopia. Some have gotten surgery to correct it, and some haven't. I don't think of them as "lazy eyed Bill" Just... Bill. But if they're self conscious about it, and it would somehow help with confidence, they had the money, and it was a minor fix up from a reputable surgeon... great. They're not trying to look like someone else. They're just trying to look their best, or fix a problem. Cleft Pallettes, Amblyopia... fix a broken nose, a deviated septum, get rid of a tattoo, etc... Not a problem.

[Asker]

I guess fix an issue, my nose bridge didn’t have a hump as a kid and was straight pretty much but it got a hump in my early teens, half Jewish, I just think i would feel more confident and look more aesthetic if it looked like what it used to be.

[GoodManDave]

The nose hump. Well, it's up to you, but I know a GIRL who rocks it. I think it would seem weird to me if I didn;t see her for a month or two, and she didn't have it. For me, she's cute with the nose bump. It gives her "personality." I think it's endearing. Now, granted, that's me as a guy, but I would think some women would think a guy with that was attractive. But, if you're that freaked out by it, and you have the money, and you think it will help you... your choice...

"Wabi Sabi, man. Wabi Sabi." https://youtu.be/C16BE6SakWs

[Asker]

Lol wabi sabi. Yeah I’m pretty freaked

[Lilyanony]

I think its unhealthy to get plastic surgery unless its to correct a real health problem.
Getting surgery to look like a celebrity screams low self esteem and possible mental health issues.
I have problems with my skin, i have chemical peels. That was recommended by my dermatologist who told me i also had sun damage. Now i wear the proper skin care to prevent further damage. Other than thst whenever i look in the mirror i see parts of my mum, and parts of my father. I was made from love. Thats special and unique. The best part is im an only child so i truly am one of a kind. Looking more like someone else prevents you and others really getting to know who you are and what makes you special. It really hurts me that this is what we have become. The more educated and more advanced technology gets the more humans find ways to self loathe and feel inadequate. I am not a product of always feeling loved, i had a rough childhood but i learnt to love myself. And i embrace thst i have aspects of both parents good and bad but i get to choose who I am without surgically removing it or adding to. 9/10 most people that have this type of surgery live to regret it

[Asker]

What if you don’t want to become someone else but just look more like an earlier version of yourself? I had a straight nose in my childhood but as I got older I got a dorsal hump, if I changed it back to what it was, and only used my childhood pics, then it wouldn’t really be lying. But I agree anything else is lying because it isn’t actually you, implants are fake

[Lilyanony]

Again they have these procedures as cosmetic, private care so you pay. If thats what you want to do fine, but the bottom line is if it wasn't affecting your health, its about how you want to look. there's doing one thing then there's obsessing. People might say thats the same for me, but i had sun damage and hormone issues and ibs this caused my skin massive breakouts and blemishes. Im treating it as a health issue not just cosmetic. doesn't make me better than someone else, just different. I know, my limit. These people dont. Have you see the human ken doll. he's is incredinky scary to look at and he thinks he's hot. Why becuase he was severely bullied, not just for his looks but because he is Gay. That made him turn on himself and his depression turned into something else. Now instead of earning his miney legitimately he actually takes money from people usually men in exchange for maybe dstes, sex and photos, as his status improved i guess he's made a business of it. But can you honestly say this person is happy? I don't know him but from the outside looking in i think he needs a massive hug and love. I also fear that one day he will wake up and see what i and others see. Much like that scene in dorian gray. Human beings really scare me. And what i see coming from this is only the beginning. 😔 wait until we get ai walking around.

[Asker]

Lol you’re into conspiracies. Well anyway yes I think you surgeries are perfectly justified and I’m sorry you have to suffer with those conditions. Now I’ve seen the ken doll guy and I know how exactly how the dude feels. I was bullied and I was called names and made fun of as a kid and I want to feel beautiful and lovable, that’s why I want my nose to be more normal. I have a whole list of models I want to look more like. Have sympathy for the ken doll guy not contempt.

[Lilyanony]

I dont feel contempt for him, thats where you misunderstand me. I am sorry you were severely bullied too. I do not feel angry or contempt for you either. I feel annoyed that people made you and this guy feel so bad that you need to change yourself to get and feel loved. Trust me you are loved and you will find love. Love starts from with you. And that is what i genuinely believe you could work on. Have you seen katy piper? Pretty girl before, but since the ordeal of her attack she has endured so much but it didn't break her it helped her to blossom into the beautiful woman she is today, who is happiky married with children. I dont dount for one second that she has days where she forgets what she looks like becuase she is happy, and when she sees herself she is reminded of the pain and hurt she once felt, amd she probably still mourns who she was. But thst doesn't stop her from living. Most of her surgery was to help her to live because she was in constant pain, and the damage was so severe she couldnt lead a normal life without constant care but she kept on pushing. As i said to you before there are these options out there and they are there for you to utilise if you wamt them. But trust me, your inability to find love isn't because of how you look its because of how you feel. If you get that surgery your confidence will improve, but much like the comidity of having something new and it wears off eventually that will happen to you and your nose, that is human nature. And thise feelings of inadequacy may remain. What will happen then? I urge you work on your self esteem and confidence. (This won't deter you from having the op but it will help your long term mental health)

[Lilyanony]

You are enough. You are loveable. You are unique. You're feelings are not invalid. And they deserve to be addressed. Holding it in and recignizing that you feel a type of way about it doesn't make you weak, you are incredibly strong. But it also doesn't mean you don't have to be a prisoner to these people's harsh words. In life we want to make others happy and be liked, but what about you, dont you deserve someone who wants to see you happy and like you for you warts in all. This isn't an attempt to prevent you getting surgery, i personally would like you yo be happy. My last piece of advice is this, please do your research about a surgeon, ask around about other peoples rhinoplasty and the doen time for recovery, the after care and whst their life is like living with the nose now. Tc x

[Asker]

You are such a kind, caring, good spirited person. I mean it. I really wish the best for you and those like you. I greatly appreciate you taking the time out of your life to give consideration towards my problem. Now I don’t know if I still am not going to get an operation, I’m going to look into it, but what you’ve told me will stick and I’ll be sure to give it the most thought and not take it lightly. Thanks. Have a good rest of your day

[Lilyanony]

Aww, i wasn't expecting that. Thank you. And good luck 🤗

[Pinay_ako]

of course. it's a mental problem. you are not happy with yourself and you want what the other has so you do what it takes to be them hoping you'd be famous or beautiful like them

[Asker]

It's not a mental problem, wtf, if someone has an insecurity or a flaw why can't they fix it? We have the technology and it would be done with the persons own bone, so why not? The only surgery i condemn is that where its not you

[Pinay_ako]

It is a mental problem if you drastically change your face to look like someone else. Isn't that what you asked to look like another person? If it's an insecurity or flaw like a bony nose or flat nose, then it's fine fix away to look better. why are you so mad?

[Asker]

Cause I feel so worthless, I feel like garbage, like I am garbage

[_Harley_Quinn_]

I agree with Pinay

[Asker]

@_Harley_Quinn_

About what?

[Pinay_ako]

@_Harley_Quinn_ Ty Hun

[Asker]

Pinay...

[EclipseoftheHeart]

News flash, "It's not you" if you have surgery to change something and to look different. "Being you" is with all the flaws, and we all have flaws.

[Asker]

@EclipseoftheHeart

I have a scar on my throat from a tracheotomy as a baby and many people stare at it and look away and finger their necks while looking and talking to me. I have a quiet voice from fucked up vocal chords from the same surgery and it takes me lots of effort to talk in public, and is humiliating when I’m not heard. I’m also short for a man, 5 foot 6. Why wouldn’t I want to be someone else?

[EclipseoftheHeart]

By all means do, I was just being anal as to you said "Where it's not you" Sorry.

[Asker]

@EclipseoftheHeart

It’s fine, I just wish people would understand where I’m coming from

[Goodwifie]

Yes because you'll never look like that person.

[stilllanuagthtboy]

I don't want to repeat myself but it's nothing to do with looking at somebody else my daughter had some work done last year it was nothing to do with looking somewhere else it's about what she considered to be something she didn't want just had to work now and she's become a very confident lady there so much sun she's gone to Australia for a couple of years just backpacking and working but she has got confidence I'm hoping so when she comes back and if she comes back power cracker to meet someone nice and settle down I don't think she's ready for that now I think she's up for a good time

[Goodwifie]

That wasn't the question though.

[Asker]

I want to get my nose bridge straightened like it was when I was a kid, is that so bad? I don’t want to look like someone else entirely, I just want to look more handsome as a man

[CubsterShura]

Yeah this is an epidemic now. Majority of young clients of plastic surgeon show pictures of other women and say that they wanna like like that woman. Girls don't want to look like themselves anymore because they are convinced that they aren't good enough on their own and they need some Kylie Jenner level glow up to be appreciated or validated.

But can you really blame them? Look at the Kardashians being famous for sex tape and plastic surgery. Look at their followers, their influence on women. Look at their wealth, Kim is a millionaire and Kylie is a billionaire. They literally get everything that we humans naturally desire: admiration, fame, attention, money, followers, and of course, good looks.

Even I didn't want to look like myself once. I hated everything about my face, hair, body, skin, everything. I was in a relationship with a guy who made me feel terrible about my looks and compared me with other girls. I actually wanted to look like those pretty girls that draw everyone's attention, and thought that, maybe he wouldn't leave me if I looked like her. It is a struggle. I cried when I looked at myself because I hated looking like that, I cried when I saw other girls cause I didn't look even half as fabulous as them.

I'm not that much extreme now but if I say that I am totally comfortable in my appearance or I have no insecurity or I feel like I'm enough the way I am, that would be a huge lie. I still feel like I'm supposed to spend hours on my appearance only as if I don't have school.

The pressure on women to look like some model or fitness lady or whatever is insane. People forget that modelling or whatever it is, it's not our occupation.

[Asker]

It’s just as bad for me. I want to have perfect looks. I want a perfect straight nose. Hump nose looks bad on me, especially because I had a different nose as a kid, it was straight and normal. But then got a hump. I feel very jealous of other people with normal noses. How do you deal with your insecurity?

[CubsterShura]

I just let myself know that insecurities are normal and there is nothing wrong with the way I look more l now.

[CubsterShura]

Right* now

[Adam_INTJ]

I think it's foolish.

It's like when I used to think that a logo or brand name could be inherently cool. It's not the appearance, it's what the appearance represents.

You can call your football team the Steelers, but that doesn't make it at all comprable to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In the same token, I could get plastic surgery to look like Robert Downey jr., but that won't give me his Charisma or confidence. That makes the whole operation useless because that's what makes Downey attractive: who he is and how he conducts himself, not how the visible light spectrum reflects off of him.

[Asker]

But what if you want to get surgery to look like an old version of yourself? I had a straight nose bridge as a kid but developed a hump in my teens- what if I want to change it back?

[Adam_INTJ]

Your appearance is so useless compared to your physical and mental capability. Your persona is so much more. Don't worry about it.

[Asker]

Physical capability? Lol I’m 5 foot 6 105 pounds. I have to improve my looks in order to make up for these

[fashionguy17]

I think it's dumb. I'm not going to elaborate too much on this. However, I also think plastic surgery is dumb also. I see women on social media sporting:

-Fake abs
-Fake breasts
-Fake butt
-Fake faces

All for what? Just to get a million likes on Instagram? Also, I think that maybe 20 or so years from now... maybe longer... maybe shorter... who knows... maybe there will be restrictions on plastic surgery.

I have heard stories of women who get plastic surgery and years later the plastic in their body starts getting rejected by the body and has adverse affects on the individual. Seriously... having a foreign object like that inside of you can't be 100% safe.

[Asker]

What if it’s a surgery done with your own bone?

[Asker]

Like a nose job?

[Leafpool2]

Extremely. You aren't that person, you're you. I don't care if people get plastic surgery because they want to "fix" something they don't like (it's probably not that bad but if they get that surgery isn't my call) but doing it to look like a specific person is going to just take you down a bad path because it's never really gonna be enough

[Asker]

ok well I have a desire to feel beautiful

[Leafpool2]

You can look nice without wasting all your energy on being a carbon copy of someone else.

[Asker]

Still gonna get ny bridge straightened

[ghostqueen]

Yeah. It's really creepy. People get surgeries to correct things that make them insecure and when it's done sensibly and not excessively that can be healthy. Going to someone to make them turn you into a clone of someone else is freaky. I'd be disgusted if someone did that to me. It shows there's definitely something off.

[Asker]

Yeah I just want my nose bridge straightened, because it has a hump, but when I was a kid it was straight, and looking at pics I liked the way that looked, so yeah...

[Asker]

But I definitely don't want to become someone else

[Asker]

That's repulsive

[EclipseoftheHeart]

I think the worst part is all the money they pump into plastic surgery in order to "Pump" themselves up. The living Barbie Girls are one example. They may look good now but who knows how long it will last. Some women who try to stay young with plastic surgery wind up looking freaky.

[Asker]

Sometimes plastic surgery is warranted if the person wants to look more normal or like a more improved version of themselves, and they will gain confidence

[CaffeinatedCactus]

Yes I do think its unhealthy to physically try to change your own body to look like someone else. I can see doing plastic surgery to improve some little insecurity you have like "awkward boobs" or a "bad nose" but only do it for yourself because quite honestly most people dont notice our imperfections

[Asker]

Lol I like your username, creative

[Porcelaine]

Absolutely. Mutilating yourself surgically is never a good idea unless you have some serious defect. it's a mental issue really. vanity is an illness.

[Asker]

Not really, i feel subhuman and unattractive because I have a bump on my nose and it's not straight.

[Porcelaine]

a bump on the nose is nothing. it can be really attractive face character. straight nose is boring. guys with bigger noses are manlier. subhuman? you need to go outside and take a look and both men and women noses. they are all kinds of shapes.

[Asker]

I feel horrible like a monster and subhuman. I need a nose job and jaw implants soon

[Porcelaine]

you are being ridiculous. any surgery you will do will actually make you look unhuman. once you start to age people with surgery start to look like aliens.

[Asker]

A nose job done with a persons own bone and cartilage won’t look bad. At least I should be allowed that

[Porcelaine]

You are allowed to change anything you want, but I promise you will regret it.

[Asker]

Why will I regret it? Do you want me to keep suffering as I am? I can’t feel good about myself or get into a relationship

[Porcelaine]

You are suffering from lack of self esteem, not because of your nose. do you want me to name all the famous people I know who are considered sex symbols and don't have straight noses, but big manly ones? you are only 19, when I was 19 I thought there was something wrong with every part of my body. THANK GOD I did not do anything to change it, because now what I have differently is what stands out in my looks and people love it

[Asker]

It’s not just my nose, I’ve heard my narrow jaw makes me less masculine, so maybe I’ll get implants in the future. How am I supposed to have confidence in myself if I don’t correct these defects? I have no idea how you had any self esteem unless you looked like a 9/10 head turning level good looking girl

[InTimoreDei]

@AJC997 You feel subhuman because you're weak and pathetic with no self-esteem. Whining over some minor physical thing.

[Asker]

@InTimoreDei

I am weak of mind yes but not pathetic at all. Tell me are you satisfied with the way you look? Do you love it? Do you embrace it in all its imperfection and disharmony?

[Porcelaine]

Self esteem doesn't come from ideal facial aesthetics lol. NOONE is perfect, every single person has something they don't like about their bodies and faces and feels self conscious about. but they still feel confident because they have plenty of other qualities that make them feel good. the things you're self conscious about aren't even flaws lol. you blow something out of proportion that other people will never care to notice

[Asker]

This isn’t about other people, this is about me, I want to feel like a stunning masterpiece, I want to have that feeling of being an amazing work of art, I want to feel invincible

[Asker]

I want to feel indestructible

[Porcelaine]

plastic surgery won't give you that. if it's just a feeling you're after you need to work on your mind not your face. your face is already a work of art you just refuse to see it that way

[Asker]

I don’t see it that way, you’re right, I have the desire to be head turning level aesthetic

[SketchForger]

Yes. Accepting your flaws is what makes us human. But I would also argue that being honest about getting plastic surgery is it's own form of accepting a flaw in your own character.

I would still suggest that anyone who gets a nose Job , botox injection, or skin removal... Be aware that people will not notice you looking "better" they'll notice you looking "different."

[Asker]

Why notice me looking different? I got a hump on my nose bridge when I was like 14 but before it was straight. Looking back at my childhood pics, I liked a straight nose better, I think it went better. I want to change that, and technically I wouldn't be adding anything different, cause I already had it

[SketchForger]

I've injured my nose too, and I don't plan on getting it fixed.

[Asker]

Well, that's you, I want to look good

[SketchForger]

And that's where you need to consider your priorities.

[Asker]

No, I hate my nose the way it is, I want a normal nice looking straight swoop down bridge... if I have the money and find a qualified good trustworthy surgeon, what's the issue? My nose right now causes me extreme low self image

[PinkChampagne]

First you can't be same as the one you want to look like even with the million surgeries, second, you lose your identity... Who are you then? Just a copy... Not an unique individual...

[Asker]

Yeah but what if you want to look like a younger version of yourself?

[PinkChampagne]

Good luck...

[Asker]

Lol why the ominous tone?

[PinkChampagne]

It isn't... 🤔

[Asker]

Kinda is

[thealias]

I'd say it's mentally unhealthy yeah, because if the results aren't a perfect match then the person is likely to be disappointed etc. etc.

Not sure why materialism and self-obsession are such a big part of society now anyway!

[Asker]

There are a few celebrities I wouldn't mind looking like

[thealias]

Wanting to look like someone and actually spending tens of thousands to try to look like them are two different things!

[Asker]

I want to get surgery if I can in the future to become an improved version of myself

[thealias]

That's slightly different, still not something I agree with but it's your choice at the end of the day!

[Asker]

I'll explain. My nose got a dorsal hump when like 13 or 14 but before it was a straight bridge, so I'd like the hump removed

[morrowlow]

i think that's really shallow. if there is something severely wrong with someones face and it's hard for them to appear in public then they could consider surgery but if they just want to look like someone else or even just get a simple operation done on their face then their problem is psychological rather than physical

[Asker]

Um I just want a simple operation. As a kid my nose bridge was straight but got a hump as I aged cause I’m half Jewish, so I want to get the hump removed and make it straight and look like it used to be

[morrowlow]

i've got a crooked nose too. and i've always imagined how i would look if my nose was straight. i also have a mild breathing problem because of my deviated septum but if i get a nose job that wouldn't be my real nose and it would feel weird. i'm in no position to tell you what to do but i can tell you that if you feel bad about the way you look it's probably not about your appearance. there are lots of beautiful celebrities who suffer from low self esteem. so it's not just us. and whatever fault you find with your appearance people probably don't even notice.

[Asker]

But it would be the same nose as I once had. It would be my nose. I’d even show the doctors pictures of my old childhood nose so they recreate it. It wouldn’t be lying really. But my look at my profile pic and judge

[morrowlow]

i don't know man. i never trust doctors with my body unless it's absolutely necessary. if you think surgery would help then go for it.

[Asker]

Why? You think something bad could happen?

[morrowlow]

yeah

[Asker]

But do you agree with me that the hump removal is kind of not fake because I didn’t have a hump before

[morrowlow]

i'm not familiar with the procedure. but it changes the way your whole face looks which is a bit strange. imagine looking in the mirror and seeing that you don't look like you always did. again if you've made up your mind then just do it. if it makes you happier then it doesn't matter what people say

[Asker]

Wait how does it change your whole face? I thought it would just change the top of your nose

[morrowlow]

don't you know anyone who's got a nose job? it totally changes how they look. yeah they just change the shape of their nose but somehow that changes their whole face

[Asker]

That’s weird, yikes, I definitely don’t want to look like a whole new person, I’m going to look into that

[morrowlow]

yeah that's smart

[laurenok]

Not to look like somebody else but definitely to fix your flaws. If you have say, a big nose or ears that stick out why not get surgery to fix it? Stop dwelling over your flaws if there are procedures than can fix it.

[Asker]

Exactly, why the hell don't people understand this? We have the technology available for years like wtf, why is there such a stigma around it? Yet people can put on makeup and do all these filters but that's ok.

[MysteriousDarkness]

@AJC997
Makeup can be taken off to look as you were before putting it on, where plastic surgery can not be undone and go back to how it was before.

[Asker]

@MysteriousDarkness

That’s true, still if someone wants to get it

[laurenok]

@MysteriousDarkness but makeup can’t change your face entirely lmao? It’s very subtle. Plastic surgery gives you a drastic change. I’ve seen so many people with huge noses that makes me wonder why won’t they just get it done

[Asker]

I want to get it done

[laurenok]

I’m beautiful already so I can’t relate

[Asker]

My nose isn’t that big but it developed a hump on the bridge which is not ideal, I want to get that removed and have it be swoop down. What’s your nose look like?

[laurenok]

I got the perfect button nose just see my pfp

[Asker]

Thanks for rubbing it in my face.

[Asker]

That’s how my nose used to look, I’m so jealous

[MysteriousDarkness]

@laurenok
Maybe they like their big nose.

[stilllanuagthtboy]

It's not about looking like a person it's changing what you consider to be your fault with you it's about again is selfish self esteem and confidence last year I paid for my daughter so how breast implants and she's been happy as ever

[Asker]

Yeah exactly, you don’t think it’s selfish? I just want the bridge of my nose made straight and swoop down because it was straight as a kid

[stilllanuagthtboy]

I say good luck to you if you feel every time you wake up in the morning looking in the mirror and you don't feel confident you have something that you're very conscious of get it done he will feel better about yourself and I say good things surely I wish you all that and I would say go for it I want an S8 actually I've got a big nose but that's the way it is

[Asker]

An s8? And thanks I appreciate it. Yeah I don’t really think it’s changing who I am because I looked like that before. You really got your daughter implants?

[wingattebaby16]

depends on how radical the surgery is.

if it is a minor thing, no.

if it is a remake to make you look like barbie, then Yes.

[Asker]

Is removing a hump a minor thing?

[wingattebaby16]

where? on the back? moles and growths are okay to remove.

You can't remove a widow's hump. that is from lack of calcium

On nose bridge

[wingattebaby16]

sure, why not.

[Asker]

Thanks

[hawaiiangroove]

Very... in fact (stupid, and fucking annoying) oops, just honesty. people really dont seem to understand the dept of the meaning “unique” there really is no one else like ourselves out there in the world.

[Asker]

I don’t care, I’m still getting a straight bridge nose job so my nose can look how it did when I was a kid. I have to be a 10/10 perfect superhuman

[hawaiiangroove]

If ur doing it to ENHANCE your look? Hell ya go for it i enhance myself all the time. but if u tryna look like brad pitt or something, goodluck with that.

[Asker]

Look at my posts and bio pic, I’ll be there soon. I just need some surgeries

[hawaiiangroove]

Whatever floats ur new nose kid.

[Asker]

Did you see my pics?

[InTimoreDei]

@AJC997 I'm not perfect by any means but I fully embrace myself and think it's weak and pathetic to whine over the internet about things I wish to change. I'd rather live a non superficial life and accept myself as I am.

[Asker]

I understand, I guess I just have other defects I can’t change like the noticeable surgery scar on my neck, my quiet voice due to damaged vocal chords, my height which is about 5’6 due to being born early, and I’d like to fix my other flaws I don’t like if I am able

[Anonymous]

Nope. Sometimes people can’t be happy with something they didn’t create. Its like saying you don’t like what you see, change it, it’s not your fault you look the way you do. Everyone should be able to look how they want to. Nothing wrong with self hate.

[Asker]

Exactly! Like wtf, I didn’t create my nose or narrow jaw, why should I just accept it if there is technology to change it?

[Opinion Owner]

You can’t force yourself to accept something you didn’t choose. It’s like being married to someone you’re not attracted to. Imagine how uncomfortable that would be.

[Asker]

Yeah that’s a great analogy, it makes sense, thank you,

[PinkMichae]

Yes. I feel its unhealthy to try to look like someone else not to mention creepy to the person you're trying to look like.

[Asker]

What if the person is a younger you? I used to have a straight nose and looking at my childhood pics that looked much more normal, but then I got a dorsal hump, what if I corrected my nose so it looked exactly like how it was?

[PinkMichae]

That's different. That's trying to look like yourself again. Not someone specifically. I have no issue with people getting plastic surgery to better their looks so they feel more confident. Just don't try to do what that chick did in the pics. That's creepy.

[Asker]

Yeah I agree, not to make fun of her, but her eyes look like big sunflowers. Unique actually

[PinkMichae]

I wouldn't call it unique making everything look like Kim. I'm not gonna deny she's beautiful. But I'm willing to bet she was more beautiful looking like herself.
