Great points.

I also think they are replicating the looks/aesthetics they see on social media and tv shows. They believe that’s what they are supposed to look like and it’s either unattainable (filters) or someone in their 30s. So they age themselves and think it looks good. For example, lots of 20 year olds getting duped by “preventative” Botox and fillers.

Really? I see this at children, like 11yo girls trying hard to look 25. But sure, influencers brainwashing works on all ages and in many directions. It was always here, but socmedia and screens 18 hours a day nourish the whole thing.

I live in a very plastic surgery heavy area. It’s rough it see. Instinctually we as human beings can tell when we’re looking at something unnatural in a face. At least if you’re thinking about young women, I bet that’s what you’re seeing. But young men do it too.

I think Botox and fillers age the face. Especially young people who are not paying top dollar for it. Their injectors are probably cheap and inexperienced.
