Could Plastic Surgery Be the New Makeup?
Not a day goes by without social media, tabloids, or even the mainstream news mentioning another celebrity going "under the knife" or "under the needle." A few years ago, this might have shocked the public, leading people to question its necessity. Today, however, it has become one of the most commonplace topics.
Most of us need no introduction to the Kardashian-Jenner family. The sisters gained massive fame initially through Kim, but a few years ago, the spotlight also shifted to the youngest, Kylie Jenner. For a long time, the regular plastic surgery treatments of these Hollywood stars were an open secret; today, they are considered common knowledge. Although Kylie—now 21—denied for years that procedures transformed her from an average 17-year-old into an Instagram bombshell in a matter of months, the ice finally broke this year. While the confirmation of what was already obvious didn't cause a huge stir, her sister Khloé Kardashian’s reaction certainly gives one pause:
"Why can't we look at plastic surgery just like makeup?"
This was the infamous sentence that broke the internet. Some argue that makeup is a daily deception, a way for women to mislead their surroundings and often themselves. But what if someone naturally feels the need for this "little trick"? In our previous articles, we discussed how a well-executed plastic procedure significantly increases a patient's average level of happiness. Many still view plastic surgery negatively, yet if we think it through, we can easily see the other side of the coin.
The Hidden Dangers of Cosmetics
An American study reported on a research project that examined 2,983 chemicals found in everyday cosmetics. The results were shocking: nearly 1,000 of these substances proved to be severely toxic! Potential harmful effects include the induction of tumors, eye and skin irritation, biological alterations, and reproductive issues. While there are now many organic and vegan makeup products where these substances are minimal or non-existent, artificial cosmetics still dominate the majority of the market.
Safety and Convenience in Plastic Surgery
In contrast, the materials used in modern plastic surgery are 100% guaranteed against irritation. Thanks to constantly evolving science, we now work with implants and wrinkle treatment fillers that prioritize skin health while providing a natural appearance.
After all, who wouldn't want full lips without having to spend thirty minutes every morning in front of the mirror using lip liners and lipsticks to create a plumper effect? Those experienced with wrinkle treatments know how quick and painless these procedures are. It is very rare for a patient to require painkillers during a session. The same applies to lip fillers—proven by the growing trend on Instagram of ladies (and sometimes men) posting live videos of themselves smiling through the treatment.
Innovation and Lasting Solutions
Today, patients can choose from countless breast implants depending on the desired effect—from natural looks to perfectly round silhouettes, in pre-determined or customizable sizes. What they all have in common is that they contain no materials harmful to the body. They are designed with the latest innovations, allowing the body to accept the foreign material as quickly as possible without complications.
For those who prefer not to introduce any external materials into their system—whether through makeup or implants—we recommend aesthetic surgeries like eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). We can assure everyone that a few well-placed incisions can perform wonders that no makeup product can achieve. Besides being a fast solution with easy healing, the results are far more permanent than a daily makeup routine.
Summary
Based on the facts above, it’s no surprise that the internet exploded at Khloé’s statement; the "Queens of Instagram" know exactly what they are talking about. It is human nature to seek convenient solutions. Let’s admit it: there are few more convenient solutions in our world today than a routine plastic procedure performed by an experienced surgeon. Within the vast array of possibilities, everyone can find exactly what fulfills their desires.
