When I was a kid, hardly anyone talked about plastic surgery. These days, you mention Botox, nobody raises an eyebrow.

Back in the day, plastic surgery was like this hush-hush topic, but now it's like chatting about Botox is as normal as talking about the weather. It's wild how trends change, right? Seems like everyone's shifting gears towards skincare these days, aiming for that natural glow.Have you heard about Argireline? It's like this cool peptide that's making waves as an active ingredient. I've been diving into it, and let me tell you, it's like giving your skin a little boost without going under the knife. Just my two cents – trends might come and go, but finding what works best for you is the real deal.

Can't disagree!

Yes, it's true that attitudes towards plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures have changed over the years. In the past, many people viewed these procedures as taboo or even shameful. However, advances in medical technology and techniques have made these operations more accessible. Today, many people view plastic surgery as a personal choice and a way to enhance their appearance. It's essential to do a research and consult with a qualified and experienced expert, such as those from rawbeautyaesthetics.com, before undergoing any type of procedure.

Yes, you're right. Attitudes towards plastic surgery and non-invasive cosmetic treatments have shifted in recent years.

It’s because plastic surgery is a trend now, and it’s become more affordable. It used to be a thing for rich people and celebrities before, but now anyone can have access to it because Botox shots are not that expensive.

If you can't blink, you've overdone the face lifts as well.

I'm deciding if to give you a like or not for the quip...OK , I will

I think people deserve to do what makes them happy. In my work I've processed a few claims for gender reassignment surgery. I've read descriptions of the surgeries and the recovery times and expectations. Definitely NOT my cup of tea, and I'm very happy to be the gender I am. But if it gives you peace of mind or happiness, go for it. That being said, in 5 years or so, I'd like to get my eyelids done. They're getting very droopy. But then again, I'm not sure I want knives so close to my eyes. We'll see. I'm all for others doing what makes them happy. Follow Your Bliss.

It was a joke..you, know; when people get botox treatments, they can't raise their eyebrows!

@birdingnut Yes it was a joke!

When my wife came back from the beautician, I told her they'd overplucked her eyebrows. She looked surprised.

Good one

That's because their eyebrows are already permanently raised 😛

Your right

Well, when you were a kid botox was not a technique in use.

I am all for plastic surgery if this is what makes the person feels better....the same goes for contact lenses vs eyeglasses.

Anyway, there are many Mother Nature mistakes that plastic surgery solves in minutes....like laser surgery to change an uni-brow into two...and preventing the bullying this will certainly bring upon the kids.

I don't know anyone who has had plastic surgery. I have seen plenty of actors with bad facial work; Melanie Griffith, Daryl Hannah, and Mickey Rourke to name a few. I admire Jamie Lee Curtis who has aged gracefully and doesn't even dye her hair.

@ebdb Dear, when you grow ip being ridicules as "big nose"...you get plastic surgery as soon as you can.'
You must be on the person's skin to judge.

BTW: IMHO "To age gracefully" is an expression coined by those who can't afford to look better.

Botox is a poison they inject into the muscles. They tried it with my cerebral palsied daughter years ago to reduce spasticity.

ad people use it a lot for cosmetic reasons (wrinkles)
