Social media users can uniquely display an idealised picture of themselves to the world at large. Many people have been too focused on their physical appearance due to this. These filters are so popular that apps like Snapchat and Instagram have integrated them, giving users, even more control over their digital image.
Cosmetic surgery has been profoundly affected by the rise in popularity of social media and digital picture editing. For example, 55% of facial plastic surgeons in 2017 said they had patients who wanted to look better in selfies.
Taking Pictures Of Oneself And The Way, You See Yourself
There’s no way to avoid the ubiquitous selfie. Sharing selfies on social media is a great way to show off your travels, but it can also be a harsh reminder of your physical flaws. Taking selfies forces us to face the facts: we have laugh lines around our eyes, a turkey neck, and a physique that isn’t quite beach-ready. Because of their experiences on social media, many individuals decide to get plastic surgery to enhance their appearance. Almost half of those polled in a recent survey by RealSelf said that they were at least partially affected by social media when deciding to get cosmetic surgery.
Using filtered photos on Instagram has also sparked an increase in interest in plastic surgery. Some people seek surgery to get an appearance similar to that achieved with a particular social media filter. Some patients utilise self-shots from Instagram to demonstrate a preferred vantage point to their surgeons rather than bringing in a celebrity photograph. Individuals in the patient population have a clear sense of their aesthetic preferences.
Communicating The Gospel
Life updates are best shared on social media. Images of before and after plastic surgery treatments are often shared online, not only by celebrities. People write about getting their Botox and Dysport injections, announce their planned breast augmentation surgeries on Twitter and share “before and after” photos of their procedures on Instagram.
The advent of public social media platforms has made plastic surgery a lot less taboo. As bad as the secret is out, it should be out now. Both men and women may now make choices about their bodies and feel good about the results.
Verifying a Physician’s Credibility
Choosing a surgeon has also been affected by the rise of social media. A medical professional’s online reputation is crucial. Patients now have the chance, like never before, to learn both the pros and downsides of the many surgeons they are contemplating. If you put in the time, you may learn a lot about prospective cosmetic surgeons via their social media profiles.
Indeed, social media will forever leave its influence on the field of cosmetic surgery, but that’s not always a negative thing. We are thrilled that social media facilitates self-acceptance among patients and gives folks the tools they need to bring about positive improvements in their physical selves.
Conclusion
In 2022, you may prepare your selfies for an Instagram grid without being a Photoshop master. Do you have a hump on the bridge of your nose? Those painful cysts on your chin and jaw? Face features that are not entirely as defined as you would like? Everything mentioned before has at least one (and often more) corresponding editing app. Likewise; Cosmetic surgeons like Dr. Adam have seen every possible combination.
