Hi, i loved this video. I think it would be interesting to reflect about *teeth whitening* . Thank you
"she spends many hours a day looking at herself" girl you need a therapist not lip injections
Tea
"like many young women" lol. I don't even spend hours looking at myself in the mirror or taking selfies.
@@turtlepetal sometimes I forget to look in the mirror all day because I'm super lazy at doing make up or just to check up on my face. I always think that my face is still look the same as the day before so why bother checking it again? 😁
I mean, I like looking at myself in the mirror if I feel like it. but out of confidence or to try and accept the flaws my body inevitably comes with, just like every other body. and unless I am trying on clothes, it usually lasts a few minutes at best.
It seems like she kind of knows that but can't stop herself.
Be yourself, because everyone else is starting to look the same
Istg
Kardashians, Kardashians everywhere (/ 'o ')/ ( ' ').

For real. I saw someone with very different looking makeup on, and I was in awe because it wasn't like the usual makeup I was seeing. She was beautiful.
THIIIIISSSS
I wish people would spend more time on enlarging their character and moral instead of their lips.
hahahaha good one! wait, you were purposely trying to sound like a self righteous prick right?
Not everybody has self awareness.....
Bahahaha, this is painfully true.
Agreed.
Someone had to say that
Looolll I mostly use Instagram for memes and hyping up my friends
and cute animals posts xD
I use it to follow my favourite bands and other people to check what they're up to or any updates lol
Also, to post my drawings when I feel like it
@@yeeboii8261 same here
I use mine for cosplay, social issues, and dank memes.

❤❤❤❤❤
Who said it?i haven’t been paying attention
YESSSS
“My boyfriend says I’m obsessed”
>.> girl you are obsessed you’re literally talking while looking at your phone and not even looking where you’re going..
She needs to listen to her boyfriend he’s right she is obsessed!!
She bout to get hit by a car and won't know why
and she doesn't even have 1k followers? like how much interaction can there even be with such a low number? that's so weird.
And she's doing all this for only 841 followers? Definitely obsessed/addicted.
Sim Mckenzie your profile picture is amazing 😂
No amount of surgery will fix that feeling Inside 💯
It's the soul that needs the surgery
Preach honey
@Jamar Grant wish there was a surgery to fix brain
Yes it does
Periodt
I gave up Instagram and Facebook, keep TH-cam and Pinterest.
Sameeee
I hate instagram!!
Congrats. Im on my way
Same . I gave up on instagram and twitter . There are so many toxic beauty standards there and gives us pressure to look like THE TREND . But facebook ? Ive reducing my use of it because it makes me communicate with my friends :)
Get reddit
"I didn't edit this photo... Other than smoothing my face on face tune." Uhh, that counts as editing, princess.
yeah the poor girl is delusional ;)
no it doesn't
she meant photoshop as to alter her jawline, eyes, cheekbones etc
@@theteaishotandserved2279 but that's not what she said
@@lilyo5248 it does count as editing, an unedited photo would be completely untouched
Ok but does anyone else hate needles ? This video was so interesting but so painful to watch 😭
OMFG NAMIIII ILYSM
These people don't hate needles - they hate their own natural face.
NamiiCho ILYSM
IT WAS SO PAINFUL OML I CRINGED SO HARD
I kept covering the screen!
I don't think I have ever even spent 5 minutes thinking of my lips
Me either people are crazy lol
I thought about my lip color for 10 minutes maybe, on my wedding day 🤣🤣
The only time I thought about my lips were when they were bleeding after I accidentally bit down while eating. Smh.
@@nishitaiyengar ouch.
I spent a handful amount of time in the past to think about my lips because it was always been chapped
they really did that blonde so dirtyy, none of her clips made her look like anything more than self obsessed
frrr😳
She did that all by herself. She's clearly obsessed. No other way to frame her than to display exactly how she is.
@@YourMajesty143 if you truly saw past appearance you’d know that all that is is appearance. She appears a certain way in this video but it’s only a slice of her. And there are complicated reasons why people feel this terrible way. It’s all complicated and simplifying someone down to what they say in a video is just ridiculous
😂.. facts
@@lidiapietrusza5014 Get over yourself. She portrayed herself the way she did, it's not like they edited her words or anything. She did it to herself. She agreed to show herself to the world like that. As an example of an insecure Instagram-girl.
Take the phone away from her. She needs an intervention 🤔
Sadly, that is true. ;-;
When I thought about it, especially in children, when you take someone's phone away, they become crazy. Not gonna lie.
she needs braces not lip fillers if she does insist on getting some work done
What a gret idea! Take her phone away. It's like seeing an alcoholic and saying take their drink away. How come nobody thought of that?
Nope she needs invisalign. The lips are not the problem.
I love that Dr.Patel says that fillers are becoming so common, like making a hair appointment. It’s so relevant and refreshing that a doctor acknowledges this.
@@sierracasady2234 literally exactly what the doctor said in the damn video, smart ass.
@@sierracasady2234 - Dr. Patel did say that. She mentioned that she was concerned that people were treating like that (no big deal/everyday thing)
It’s ok, let it go ..
"This is just me. I didn't, like, edit this photo..."
Followed immediately by admitting she used face tune.
Serious time, guys?
_People are becoming absolutely delusional._
Right?! That girl needs some help lol
shes just desperately trying to convince herself that thats what she looks like in person haha.
if that were the case she wouldnt have said "i wish i looked like this in real life" lol
Look how stunningly beautiful the reporter is, and looks so natural and not like an Instagram clone. 🙄
She looks like a Dutch Masters painting subject, maybe.
Right? She's gorgeous! And so are you 😊
@Sadia Afrin Both she and Dr Patelle 😍
Let's take a moment to appreciate the hosts natural lips
SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
@@sophii7906 yupppp😄
Yassss. Honestly, small lips are cute and makes you look like a doll. That’s why it’s sad everyone hates them now
@Heated Heat you're blind af
Heated Heat nah they look like a papercut but sausage lips are worse
I came to realize that being confident in your own skin makes you definitely more attractive. No matter the looks, if you’re happy with yourself you truly glow differently.
Don very true! If you love yourself in your own skin that's all that matters ❤
lipstickngore ❤️
Agreed! I grew up with the normal beauty pressures at a young age, but thank God social media didn't exist at the time. I feel bad for these young girls nowadays. I make it my mission to speak to my younger sister about these kind of things and not let her fall victim to all the scam..
So true!!!
+don We agree!! :)
She said BLINDNESS is a risk! I had no idea, no thanks, i like my vision 👄
Yeah, if you inject it on your forehead
@@BiBi-mc9dj not true. Other high risk areas are the nasal bridge and nasolabial folds due to major vessels that also feed the eyes.
@@BiBi-mc9dj i prefer staying 👁-👁 than ⚫️👄⚫️
Doctors don't have to be board certified or finish their residency?!!??? That's extremely horrifying!!
its very uncommon like he said, he couldn't find a residency to pursue his dreams.
Even a nurse can do the procedure. You don’t need a doctor.
@@majestic6303 Yes!!! That's even more horrifying!!
Blair Aria Van der Kamp ... why is that horrifying? Most nurses perform routine procedures all the time...not doctors. Go to any regular hospital, the floor is usually run by RNs. Greys Anatomy is a lie...doctors don’t tend to be very present.
@@blairariavanderkamp3405 not horrifying. Its an injection.
Do people actually spend that amount of time on their OWN instagram? Or am I the weird stalker for looking at other peoples accounts lol
Lotta John That's what I'm saying. After I post a picture I don't even care anymore.
I stare at myself on my phone at *LEAST* 22 hours a day!
😂😂 Jk that's just insanity.
Lotta John girl same! I barely go on it now and will post only if I feel like it lol this isnt real life and its so sad most people dont realize it :(
Lotta John sometimes i look through my own ig but thats more like once a week or once per two weeks lol
Lotta John Instagram is the best way to compare yourself to everyone else who is dedicated to beauty industry and then feel like shit because you are not that way. Or compare yourself to your friends because they have more followers and you don't. It is pretty sick.
I don’t understand why everyone wants lip injections their lips always look oddly swollen and don’t even look nice 🙁 And that girl with 800 followers is she okay ?
Same thing i thought
ANNIHILATOR I don’t think it’s that people have forgotten how to cope with insecurities, i would say they never learned how in the first place. There’s now 2 generations that have become accustomed to instant gratification. I’m a bit older, and to be honest, the expectation to look perfect is even beginning to affect me as I begin to see early signs of aging. I’m in my 40’s but have good genetics as well as a history of taking really good care of my skin. I have also spent the last 10+ years of my life battling chronic illnesses and feel that I lost a huge portion of my youth, which creates added pressure to look even better and younger. I challenged myself yesterday morning by sending a selfie right after I had just woken up (no makeup or filters) to my long distance soulmate whom I’ve known for 22 years but haven’t seen in person for a really long time (its really complicated). However, I’m not sure I could have mustered up the courage if it were anyone else.
ANNIHILATOR That's a point! Its so sad because fixing one problem will then result in another problem and it will go on and on until you actually just stop and tell yourself its alright to look how i look and accept it. Instagram is addicting but we must always remember it's not real life people only show what they want you to see which is the best side of them ☺️
tbh it just looks swollen on 90% non black girls
Becuz some people like thicker lips.
Like how some people like tiny lips.
People who are obsessed with themselves never developed any talents or skills and therefore fall back onto cheap and empty entertainment. Like social media and vanity.
And where do these lady get the money
If they spent a fraction of that time learning how to play an instrument or painting or gardening or...these fake people have got to be the most boring people to talk to. I’d rather be old and wrinkly with some personality rather than someone who just wants to have pictures taken of themselves. Sad world.
If someone wants to look good they should EAT and EXERCISE. That’s the natural way to do it, by eating food that is good for you and eating enough calories, and by doing moderate exercise you can be healthy. You don’t need fancy procedures or luxury products to be healthy
Those people are usually very insecure. Listen to the blonde woman (not the reporter, the other one) in the video, especially at the end. She’s clearly not happy.
This generation and the upcoming ones are and will be pathetic. Wish people uninstalled Instagram, and found true meaning in developing their talents.
It makes me so sad that women and girls are consistently being told that their natural beauty isn’t good enough😢
The downside to social media! Social media dysmorphia & addiction.
Is it really that different from when people would cover their faces on lead makeup?
Star Cherry The core insecurity hasn’t changed but I think social media and a general rise in living conditions (more free time/disposable income) have really worsened the problem.
+niab. Very true!
This is why I don't have social media
Jenny Babe TH-cam is social media too...
Sis did the most for 800 followers
Alrightashley right Lmaoo
Kylie Jenner: I hvnt done any injections for my thick lips. It's all about makeup.
*The surgeon shows up*
Did she say that?
@@toi4154 yep, she used to deny it lol
Never understood how can anybody see Kyle's fillers as beautiful and become a trend...
They look nice but definitely very unnatural
kylies lips never looked nice tho but some peoples lips are nice after restylane etc
Same the look fake and ygly
They make her face look compressed you’re right they’re not pretty at all
Not a fan of her but don't call anyone ugly
Ok, Dr. Anita Patel is gorgeous.
Eureka Mreum- Yesssssss
I thought the same thing!! And the main girl who was doing the whole video
Yasssss
and smart too :)
"There can be things like blindness" Ok bye, I'll stay ugly thank you
Ryan White
You're not ugly.
Exactly..I feel you!!!!
I'm already mostly blind, but I hate needles soo
@@lalayastill610 needles don't really hurt... That's not the problem. I have an irrational phobia of them
@@thatonedog819 me too
After watching this video, I’m now super worried about a stranger. Ashley, you ok girl?
People: I don’t want toxic chemicals or eat toxic foods in my body
Also people: gets cosmetic injections with toxic fillers
Fillers r not toxic, botox is and botox isnt a filler
Fillers are mostly made of hyaluronic acid, which is an acid that we already have in our body and with time our body absorbs it naturally
@@estherreis6631 google told you that huh 😂 ask yourself "if its ALREADY in our body where did they get it ? better yet how do they MAKE IT "
@@DAMxVENN 😂🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
This video was so sad but eye-opening
Lauren Wilde sad?
Pigmented Hoe yeah social media is promoting an ideal of perfection that literally no one has, not even the person who appears in the photos. It's creating insecurities in young women who don't fully accept themselves and selling the idea that lip injections or Botox are going to solve their problems, but spoiler alert, they won't
+laurenwilde Thanks for checking it out!!
Lauren..yep....lets throw out our TV...Stop buying magazines and fuck off social media....before our kids/grandchildren become victims of Greed and Vanity....x
Lauren Wilde Black girls, do mostly have natural plump lips tho lmfao
You should do a video on plastic surgery in Korea. It’s on a whole different level in Korea
YES!
Yup! shaving the jaw bone and such
@@RobloxGymnastics i thought they already did... oops, i've been watching a lot i guess. there are other good videos on the topic though.
South Korea has totally perfected it. When I see those patients, I’m in shock. Especially the ones on the makeover shows.
@카르멘Carmen girl... I must tell you this
Please DO NOT do more plastic surgery. It can be very dangerous and korea's beauty standards are way too high... And only values one kind of beauty.
Everyone can be beautiful if they take good care of themselves... You don't need to change your face to be truly beautiful.
The "beautiful" korean and western societies have created is around money making. They create your insecurities to then profit out of them... Think of it this way: When did you start disliking your facial features? Probably when someone told you they were ugly... It's all in the society. Not only monetarily but also in terms of power. Companies like that put their customers down if they don't get plastic surgery like "you need a nosejob to be pretty!" is what the ads tell us indirectly for example.
Let's all try to achieve natural, true beauty :) don't let your unique features and health be lost. Love ya
Anita Patel is stunning and natural. How do her patients not see she doesn't have any procedure with her lips
the girl at the end who said 'I didn't edit my photo.. just did some facetune... like that IS editing your photo!!! Do people not see that as editing??
Our generation is growing and glorifying a surplus of insecure women
There is nothing wrong in being a better version of yourself by applying lip fillers, for me it makes me feel better not because social media “made me do it”, I wanted to be better for me not for everyone
@@AlexaMonroe-fk6yc Yh that’s true it’s your body your choice and if thats what you want go for it! If I may ask, why do you think getting lip fillers would help you be a better version of yourself? Just curious
@@honeyclove i wanted lip fillers not because social media but, I didn’t like my lips and I wanted to feel confident. I will tell you a personal experience, since 6th grade I was bullied and when I was insecure I hide my lips because my bullies always made me insecure of my lips, giving me horrible nicknames. My lips were shrinking (due to anorexia).Time passed, I grew up and took therapy I became confident, my lips stayed small, I wanted to feel better with my fuller lips. Some people might say that I should have just accept myself and live with how my lips were, but self love is something difficult to achieve, and I feel confident with my lips 👄😁
“YOURE INSECURE
YOURE INSECURE”
@@hashbites If you want to look good for yourself, its okay. But, if you want to change just to fit in the social media standards, then that person needs to go to psychologist.
She needs to get off the internet for a few days or at least hrs other than sleep
Plant I think it will do her some good. She needs a break
Then**
I’m so glad I never created an IG account in the first place
I almost did the other day just to see more content from a local artist but for some reason it wouldn't let so I gave up and now that I've seen this and I remember who owns insta (facebook), I'm really glad! ( ˘ ³˘)♡ phew dodged a bullet.
my friends pushed me to get it. Now I’m addicted. :h
I deleted my account when I have an indication of addicting to instagram
You don’t have to follow anything beauty related lol. There are many things on there to suit whatever interests you have
OMG SAME.
It was a win for Jenner who made an empire with a trait she never had in the first place
This is so true
This is why I'm off social media. It's addictive, and people behave very strange. The way the girl was talking at the end just creeped me out.🤦🏾♀️
LOL me too :) *High FIVe*
Same!!!
Ok instagram been gone for 3 years now i never check fb because idk my password, tf is a snapchat lol
I think she talked creepy because it's a West Coast thing whee they all sound high and airheaded, like omg, like so koool
Uhm TH-cam was is a social media sis
They should do a segment on men and plastic surgery because it’s not being talked about but it’s been increasing so much in recent years
A Williams I think that there have also been procedures where men go to get surgery done on their pectorals to make them look larger/buffer, and end up with a botched surgery where unnaturally large breast implants have been used. I remember their was an actor that went through this and the doctor (who actually had lost his license) ended up going to jail. Also VenusAngelic, a culture TH-camr, had a gastric bypass to alter her physique in which was also botched. Although it’s not plastic surgery I thinks it important to mention since the black market surgeon actually stole two of her organs.
Yes I’m v curious! This guy I went to high school with started getting lip injections and it’s like he doesn’t know how to stop now, his lips are about to reach outer space 👽
females are more insecure than men
i agree i feel like the men who do get it done have really good doctors
A Williams i saw that dr phil warmed him and he didn't listen so guess who came back to dr phil crying
8:53 "they're nice and firm" says Simon Ourian. Me: "FIRM...they're not supposed to BE FIRM...lips are supposed to be soft and be able to move, not concrete firm!".
Seems like she can’t even smile...
And this is why I deleted all my social media accounts ... and never looked back! TBH it feels AMAZING not having any social media 😍
Yea there tactics don’t work on me tho I’m an esthetician we see thru it all and Simon ourian he’s not board certified he’s a general practitioner no board certification so please go do ur research
Dear god I can’t stand all the needles and I don’t even have that big of a fear of them, i just feel so uncomfortable seeing them go into skin....
Jordan Ugo same i thought they would cut those parts out but they didnt
same!!!
same and im a diabetic
Then simply just don’t watch this vid? Wtfffff
right I literally can't look at the screen full on when they show it
Small lips, big lips they are all pretty, it would be bad if we all had the same lips, what if the whole world had big lips?, we should learn to love ourselves instead, love every part of your body the way it is, that part makes you unique. This is really sad, because even if you get injections you'll never be fully satisfied with your looks,
G. Aloysie true, I’ve seen that in social media that people with big lips get a lot more attention and are called beautiful even if the lips are fake or not, it makes people who are viewing those things think that they must look like that to be beautiful but it’s not true
That’s why I promised myself that I would never get Botox or injections
Hello It's Jello that's how I feel :) I have very small lips and though I don't like them something in me makes me think they're pretty
hellomynameisclara dont worry!
Like the documentary lady’s lips is so beautiful but not in the mainstream way. I do agree, we are individuals and that is so interesting and beautiful!
That blonde girl at the end with the “or can I?” creeped me tf out
“What a rebellious act it is to love yourself naturally in a world of fake appearances.”
Kylie has made herself look like a Latina or mixed black and white or black and Latina girl. Just my opinion.
I totally agree my friend who didn’t know who she was though she was Latina.😬
I mean she's italian
@@victorialynn2652 that's Ariana not Kylie
Ikr i cant tell u my mindblown when i learnt she wasnt at least half black
Victoria Lynn no she’s not
Side effect...possible blindness?!!!!! I would never take that kind of risk. Also, I don't understand why this isn't regulated or how someone can practice this without finishing his residency; I would never trust that person.
Same, that doctor scares me, and I wonder why would someone with tonnes of money not go to someone better, anyway? Also I get skeeved-out watching the needles go in the lips. >.
do you know what a residency is? He finished school....but you have to spend time working at a hospital under other doctors supervision....basically just practicing what you learned. Its not like hes performing major surgeries, hes doing injectables for pete sakes....and hes had a ton of practice.....hes a pro.
Athena Poe to be fair, possible blindness is super super super super rare
I can easily go without social media/my phone and have idk how & why people my age are so obsessed with Instagram it gets boring after awhile. I'm 16 btw.
Same here.
Same
sameeee
Exactly
Repeat this everyday to yourself:
Love myself
Love yourself
You're an intellectual
BTS vibes
@@ijennamirabelosuji Yeah💜
this is one of the MANY reasons why i deleted instagram. i wasted so many hours comparing my life to others. even though what people share on instagram isn’t real. it’s done wonders for my mental health.
mel how'd your friends react to that?
Brendons Forehead some of them were confused and told me to make another account. but after explaining it to them they understood why i did it. and even if they don’t fully understand it’s not like you can force someone to be on instagram.
mel what did you do instead of being on social media? When o got nothing to do I go on social media and I'm bored quite often since its vacation and I'm staying home again
every one should do this! I started with facebook and am trying to convince myself to finally bite the bullet and get rid of instagram too
people thinking u r weird if you arent on social media forces everyone to have social media presence :/ They prefer to look at ur profile and pictures and think they know everything about you. I only use snapchat because it's 100% my friends not some insta celebrities everywhere
they should've said "Meet ashley, like many young women, she looks nothing like she does in her instagram pictures"
spot on!!
😂 tru
You Ain't Lying!!!
The more natural the beauty the less likely she’ll be posting millions of selfies.
yep exactly
🤢🤮 I hate seeing needles going into skin
shannara fryer I literally covered my eyes. The whole vid
omg same
Shady, please do a video on Korean plastic surgery!
When I was a kid, I was picked on for having big lips. Now, everybody wants them.
EricaYE6 me
yeah, same with big butts and curves
And big eyebrows, using glasses also having curly hair, being extremely skinny and so on, smh.
@@patatapatosa having freckles also
Basically, people want what they don't have and don't know how to embrace things they posess
Seeing all the lip injection clips, it really shocks me how much damage Kylie Jenner did to the young girls in our country. Ugh...
C. Shen they should be smarter than to follow that low life
Aya HK AGREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This world is so shallow, ppl don’t want to be leaders anymore!
Dude...kylie never did wrong.. She changed her body for herself... Its not her fault that everyone is following her..
She didn't ask for the hype.. We gave her... The problem is insecurities and improper family guidance
xena rai - right? but the only thing i blame on her is when she said she was all natural and never had cosmetic surgery.
Country ? The whole universe
Oh how so ironic to achieve perfection but never be able to observe it.
People post their best on Instagram. Their best takes a lot of effort, through makeup, filters, editing or various plastic surgeries and augmentations.
I always have the mindset that, unless stated, the vast majority of photos posted are not real...in some way.
Yo the blond sounds so shallow and hollow
Gabrielle Taco her voice made me suicide
When she said she had a boyfriend I thought, “Wonder if they’re still together.”
it’s really sad. she shouldn’t have to be so focused on her looks :(
I think it's because she brands herself as a person who wouldn't be relevant if she wasn't as "pretty" as she is now, that's why she's so fixated in keeping them.
she needs braces not lip fillers
Thing is ,genetically some mouths are not meant to be bigger or fuller because it doesn't work with other facial features , but of course still doesn't stop people
Exactly that's why it doesn't look natural, esp when someone get's a nose job, it artificially alters the structure of the face, not how it should look naturally. Nose is then out of proportion with the rest of the face. Like that TIffany woman has picked peter pan's nose out of a catalogue or is it Michael Jackson's :)
I got quite big lips for a whiter skinned girl but that’s because I’m mixed. I got the big lips but also got small slanted eyes like the Native Americans. Now you got these girls who have these huge eyes getting their lips done and being able to have both. Nah nah, if I can deal with my small eyes you can deal with your small lips
Lip injections make lips look like little water balloons. Anyone can tell when it's natural or not so I don't get it either.
Yeah hun and those mouths with filler end up looking ridiculous. Just sad.
We are not born ugly, we are just born in judgemental society
-RM
A good cosmetologist or watching makeup tutorials can do wonders. I think changing your makeup is fun and you can always wash it off; but surgery is permanent, like a tattoo, it's a commitment
The blonde white girl they kept showing made me feel disgust and then pity for her. It's sad that this is my generation; with everything happening in the world.
Christine yes it was sad
Christine it’s ok you don’t have to pity me. I am disappointed too because there was six hours of footage and many important topics were discussed. Unfortunately they painted me in a very one dimensional light :/
Ashley Karges really? That was shady af
Ashley Karges It's amazing what editing can do. Even though you may have said those things, I'd imagine they were either taken out of context, or only one point of view was displayed. I'm so sorry. That's the wrong idea that I got. I'm sorry for all the misinterpretations and hate coming your way :/
Sofia Palacios i know 😔tell me about it
ooooh this makes me feel deeply uncomfortable. this is so depressing, to know that this is what society is now.
totally agree :z
huh, people have been chasing beauty literally forever. Look at chinese foot binding and corsets etc, it's human nature and not a new current phenomenon
Crazy how fake and hypocritical people are becoming. It starts with those annoying face-slimming Snapchat filters that makes people look like aliens with flowers on their head and now everybody wants their face to look that that in person. Wish they would just be comfortable with their appearance without a filter.
i agree pathetic!
We went through slavery relax yuh tits. It's not that serious
Shoutout to all the people who are just happy with their “imperfect” self!❤️😍
Trust me, after everyone end up looking the same there will be a trend of looking unique as possible (basically just the way you were born).
exactly, wait 10 years and some influencer will make natural beauty trendy, then all girls will envy you not getting anything done
Actually this is kind of stupid but I didn’t realize people edited photos.. I always thought why everyone’s skin is so smooth, bright flawless and my skin never looked like that. Now I know.. helps you feel better about yourself
Even if you do not deliberately edit the photos, it's pretty common now for phone cameras to automatically "beautify" you on selfie mode too :/ It's pretty hard to run away from filters now.
Haha same!
Rachel Koh Woon Sim wtf?? iphone cameras don’t do that.. wish they did cause i’m ugly smh

FACTS
Not caring about instagram has done wonders for my self confidence. I used to scroll through at night and cry because I didnt look like all these girls on instagram and feel absolutely horrible. Now that I havent really used instagram much and archived almost all the pictures on my account, I feel a lot better about myself. Constantly comparing myself and feeling ashamed ain't it sis
The creators of FB knew they there would be a rush from getting positive feedback online and a downer from negative feedback. They knew the power beforehand and said they did it anyway.
I'm glad I don't use social media that much
i love doggos may I ask what do you do instead? In general?
Marcos Del Valle I practice singing and do guitar. :)
Tiahna Grace True thattt
Tiahna Grace we would be good friends irl :3
Same.
This series is very eye opening
The Mad Lolita i was the 666th to like this comment, niiice
more like lip opening amirite
+themadlolita Thanks for checking it out!!
There was something eerie about those last 30 seconds.
this is why i don't have social media, it's toxic and it changes people into seeing themselves as not good enough
The fact that all these doctors don't under go these procedure.
That celebrity doctor looked like he did something? Just me?
Yesss look at all the female doctors. They’re always natural
@@yoursnottruly yea his mouth looked too pretty
tok tube I’ve seen doctors that say everyone in the building has gotten work done. I saw it in a video where Gabbie Hanna goes to get stuff done and she says everyone in the building is so beautiful and the doctor says “we all get work done here” or something along those lines.
Plenty of plastic surgeons get procedures done. I personally know more than a few (no I've never had plastic surgery) people who are in the surgery/injections area and they get them done. They just A) aren't as obsessive as a lot of people online are and B)know exactly how to toe the line and look natural.
I still feel wary about cosmetic surgeries despite the stigma diminishing slowly. Also as someone with thicker / fuller lips, most of the time the results don't look great to me, they look like ducks. I understand the argument is "As long as they are happy, that's all that matters", this just seems like such an unsettling future. It's teaching girls and boys that it's easier to just get surgery than to learn how to love yourself.
Very well said.
This is what we called "instant generation" in my country. Most of young people just want everything instant, not wanting to experience the process and take the lessons from it.
My thoughts as well. It makes me worried that we'll turn into places like S Korea, and suddenly this procedures will almost be required for many jobs and such. Its worrying.
I agree with your message but surgeries really are way easier to get than just loving yourself
@@elenamancheva9961 you don't understand. Today the standard is looking like a doll or having huge lips. Tomorrow they are gonna change the trend to thin lips. Beauty trends change with time. It doesn't mean that people will keep on changing their features too. Also don't you think it's lame that everybody wanna have the same features? Like the word uniqueness will lack a meaning.
I wish social media can show us that being ourselves was ok..so that upcoming teens or young people wont feel insecure and know they are beautiful
When people like your photo,it is like a validation!
Validation on what???
Validation of how dumb you are, and how you made the plastic surgery world a little wealthier through your self-doubt. xD
Validation on her life
Wow I had no idea doctors weren't required to finish their residency! I'd definitely only go to a Board Certified cosmetic surgeon that finished their residency lol I would never pick a surgeon based on the Kardashians!
Loving the Shady series!
+victoriagrant Thanks for tuning in!
victoria grant you don’t even need to go to a cosmetic surgeon, a dentist can do that just as well
talent is inborn, skill is learned. Whether a surgeon has finished his residency or not, a really good surgeon will always be known and always stand out.
You mean a plastic surgeon. You don't want a cosmetic surgeon.
He started his residency at UCLA which is incredibly competitive and maybe he wasn't getting as much "hands on" opportunity, but I don't get why he would just scrap it altogether. Why not just do your residency somewhere else? Weird.
the ending felt like the beginning of a black mirror episode
So true
I have thin lips and I'm insecure about them but I will never get surgery
Try lip plumpers?
You really shouldn’t be that concerned though, honestly, the people who truly care for you are the ones who don’t care about your looks
@@kat-oo9cj lip plumpers are a scam lmao and I honestly have bigger problems to worry about than thin lips
You’re just as beautiful 😌❤️
Do whatever you want with your body. If you want to get fillers, don't let anyone tell you that it's bad. If you like your lips, don't let anyone tell you that they're ugly.
:)
so apparently imaginary likes on a post is "validation." my heart hurts, you poor girl.
Social media has drastically changed society and the worlds perception of beauty, riches, normality and life in general! If your not strong minded you’ll always be chasing an illusion..
That's so true.
Someone get platinum haired Becky some therapy PLEASE!
and braces not lip fillers!
Biancca Raines lmao YES
Or maybe society needs to change from being so focused on looks
I am so glad I found this channel I am literally absessed
I think it's a good time to change that scripture in the Bible that says "money is the root of all evil" into "Instagram is the root of all evil" seriously. This is madness
this makes my stomach hurt
DonYelle and Diana same
it makes my lips hurt
I covered my lips and looks away at the beginning.
on god, it physically hurts watching it
The last girl 😟 gonna need to reach out for help to stop this. Don’t ever start in the first place. Sheesh
If you're only in your 20's already trying to alter your body.. imagine when you hit old age and everything goes south . YIKES
LifeofRi right? That’s what I’m thinking. All the filler and Botox is going to look really bad at an older age.
For REAL !!!!!!!
i feel like as you grow older you mature and learn to love yourself in most cases
How does filler and botox affect your body as you age? I don't know much about how this stuff works
I am investing in skincare. Best thing ever
Did anyone else notice the low key shade lexy threw at "Dr" ourian
"Or can i?" Dude shes so creepy... She needs help.
I stopped using Instagram for five months and I just feel so good
same here
Im agree
Rosy • : Offline/privacy is the new luxury.
I haven’t used it in 2 weeks because I’m focusing on school and I thought I would miss it. I don’t. I actually feel much more confident. On Instagram I would just be comparing myself, every aspect of myself, to everyone else. I think I’m only going to get on to post things once in a few months or something but I’m definitely not going on for half an hour or more
Rosy • haven’t had any kind of social media for over 6 years. It’s great.
I'm 25 and i deleted all my social media in 2012. People my age are starting to have a hard time connecting with people in person; they feel more comfortable communicating through their phones or computers. We need to change that before it gets worse.
Wonderful work. Thanks
This is why I got rid of Facebook and Instagram. Now I just use Twitter for memes.
Sorry but I have not seen one girl that has gotten lip fillers which looks “natural” afterwards. Even the smallest amount makes your lips a weird shape and creates this unnatural shine which makes it obvious
Kendall Jenner and Dove Cameron looked pretty fine to me. I couldn't have told. The fillers didn't go much off the natural shape of their lips.
Seino Parks But yes, most of the time it's tell-tale.
Seino Parks YES
You could definitely tell because they both looked like Bratz dolls. But maybe I'm just hyper aware of it because I worked in a mall right next to a plastic surgeon so many people would go shopping after their fillers. It started to get obvious when you see 20 different women walk by with the same lip shape and pout.
TLMAP kendall and dove looked so obvious Kendall less than dove but dove deffo
In 200 years, they will look back at this and *laugh* ..... because in 200 years, we'll be injecting filler into our brains 😂😂😂
Rembrandt 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣
no we will
be robots
I feel as though if you wish to "improve" your body using plastic surgery you may do so. but it should still be used for people who need it. People with deformities that can effect a person's daily life
