Cosmetic procedures, while often glamorized on social media, carry significant risks including infection, vascular occlusion, filler migration, and complications that can lead to permanent damage or regret; patients should thoroughly research procedures, choose qualified practitioners, and understand that recovery involves pain, discomfort, and potential complications that are often not visible in social media posts.

COSMETIC SURGERY GONE WRONG! BBL Fails, Turkey Teeth Veneer, Filler Migration & Botox FailAdded:
Some viewers may find the following video disturbing. Viewer discretion is advised.
>> This is one of the reasons why you have to be so careful if you're going to get a non-surgical BBL.
>> During the procedure, they popped a blood vessel in my face.
>> And when they tell you don't get lip fillers, believe him. Was injecting the wrong spot. Just found out that she passed away at the recovery house. So, I've been in constant pain ever since I went and had my teeth done in Turkey.
>> Ever like, you know, when you smell something, you're like, I know that ain't me.
>> I regret it. Yes. Yes, I do.
>> The next 6 weeks, I can't sit on my bums.
>> The only discomfort a patient will feel is when I am pulling the thread up.
>> No problem. This one was just so stubborn. Like, I still have a scab.
>> Look at them. It's perfect. This one I can damn near look at it.
>> I used to get trolled so badly.
>> If you're considering getting foxey threads done, do not get them done.
>> The worst thing I had ever tried. It was so painful.
Fam bum. At this point, I genuinely believe the internet has turned cosmetic procedures into what feels like an extreme sport right now. Yeah. Olympic sport level. Because every single week, social media introduces us to a new enhancement trend that somehow sounds both glamorous and mildly terrifying all at the same time. Now it has become almost impossible to scroll through Tik Tok or Instagram or even YouTube without seeing somebody you know documenting their latest procedure, their latest recovery journey or a dramatic before and after reveal that immediately send thousands of people into the comment section debating whether the final result is beautiful, shocking, impressive, concerning or just simply something that should never would have happened in the first place. If you have been rocking with me and been an islander for a while, then you already know that this is not our first or second conversation surrounding cosmetic procedure. Baby, we keep it flowing over here. You know, we already have discussed beauty transformation that raised a whole deeper eyebrows including mine at this point. Procedures that promised one thing but delivered something completely different. At this point, you wonder who are the doctors?
I have no idea what I'm doing.
No.
>> And of course, viral cosmetic trends that left people questioning whether social media has officially blurred the line between enhancement and experimentation. Yes, ma'am. Every single time we cover these topics, one thing becomes crystal clear to me. Me rubbing on my crystal ball right now.
And it's a fact that social media has made cosmetic procedures look far more casual than they actually are. It's like a walk in the park. Somehow we have reached to a point where lifealtering cosmetic procedures are being presented with the same casual energy as almost getting your nails done. The internet has packaged surgery and injectables and dissolvers and thread lifts and reconstructive enhancement into polished little lifestyle moments. And the creators are smiling into the camera while casually announcing that they are about to chemically alter their face or surgically reshape their entire body as if they're heading out to pick up some groceries. Yeah, like them going to Walmart at this point. But hold on, guys. fix me my art because what often gets left out of these glossy online presentation is the reality that every um cosmetic procedure carrier risk.
Every recovery process comes with uncertainty and of course not every enhancement story ends with flawless reveals and just thousands of iHeart emojis in the comment section. Some of these stories unfortunately ends with regret, unexpected complications, emotional distress, expensive corrections, ching ching, and just people publicly documenting um experiences they wish they had approached differently or in some cases none at all. All right. So anyway guys, make settle in, buckle up, grab your snack, grab your drink, just make yourself comfortable, and of course like the video, show the video some love, and prepare yourself because today we're diving into some deep way down at the ocean sea right now into cosmetic stories that had the entire internet collectively staring at their phone screens and quietly asking one very important question. who convinced these people that this was a good idea. Let's watch.
>> Do I regret it? Yes. Yes, I do. I wish I wouldn't have gone.
>> Tomorrow I am going to be having my hyerectomy, my tummy tuck, as well as Dast Stacy's recti to be sewed all back together, a breast lift, and something with my areolas to make them a little smaller.
>> So, it's 5 in the morning, and we are headed to the hospital now.
>> But her situation deteriorated even further once she got home to recover. It was anything but easy.
>> So, I have an incision that looks like right up my stomach. This is a really long line right here. Let's see what it looks like down here. So, that is definitely a gnarly line. Oh my lord. It will be 1 week since I got my tummy tuck and my lift. I thought I'd show y'all what things are looking like now.
There's the scar. You can tell that I'm swollen or this would be pushed in a little bit. I think these are tubes from my drain lines right here. At least I hope that's what they are.
>> The swelling eventually faded, exposing the terrifying truth behind her results.
>> Two weeks posts surgery. I'm happy with some areas. I'm not happy with other areas. I share everything else. So maybe I should share my disappointments. This is what this looks like. I think I'm happy with up here. But I'm going to show you what this looks like. You can kind of see the wrinkles that are all forming as the swelling has gone down. I didn't need help getting a flat stomach.
>> Can all her intense training finally get rid of that excess skin?
>> The only thing that I can't do with hard work is remove wrinkly excess stretched out skin and that's the only thing I wanted done. Like stretch marks, I can't do anything about those. Wasn't expecting those to ever disappear. Let the stretch marks be as they are. If you can't salvage my belly button, I don't really care. Um, that is where we are.
>> Things went downhill. Her health started deteriorating.
>> I've been battling an infection that has spread to my bladder and my bowels and basically just spread everywhere, which has uh made my bladder not work. Now I have a catheter. I I just cannot mother with all of this happening. Like, where is this even supposed to hook on to? Am I just supposed to sit down on the couch and just do nothing with my life? After a long recovery, the infection finally resolved. But despite having her health, she is still not satisfied with her appearance.
>> Will I get a tummy tuck revision? So, here's some before pictures. Here are some after pictures. And as you can tell, there is still a lot of wrinkly skin left. I'm not going to go through with revision. I think it was against my better judgment to even get a tummy tuck in the first place. One, because it's a strain on my family. Two, mentally I can't handle it. Three, my body can't handle an intense surgery. Four, I've been in chronic pain since I had the tummy tuck.
>> And the fifth reason would be I don't trust doctors. I don't trust them to know my body and listen to me about my own body more than they listen to some stupid text.
This is one of the reasons why you have to be so careful if you're going to get a non-surgical BBL. I've said a lot on this app that I don't advocate for surgical BBLs. Well, what about non-surgical BBL? In non-surgical BBLs, you're injecting high volumes of filler, some hyaluronic acid based and some collagen promoting into your body. First issue is some people are using illegal and dodgy fillers just like this one.
Second issue is injecting large volumes of foreign material like filler into somewhere like the bum can really be a breeding ground for infection. In the face, we use much smaller amounts so it's way easier to control and dissolve.
Lastly, the bum has a lot of blood vessels in it. So, there is that theoretical risk of a vascular occlusion in your bum. So, you could get dead tissue of the bum. No one wants that.
Non-surgical BBLs just are quite new.
So, the evidence isn't there to evaluate how safe it is. If you're going to do this, please go to someone who's really skilled and knows what they're doing and has been doing this for a while. Oh, before we continue with the rest of this video, of of course you guys know, I want to make something very clear because I always like to approach conversation like this with, you know, balance and of course honesty. So, this is not about shaming anybody for choosing cosmetic enhancement. Sis, bro, do you. This is certainly not about that. If you want to change your appearance, fine. Happy birthday. You are the birthday at this point. So, the conversation becomes important. However, when we begin looking at how aggressively cosmetic procedures are really normalized and marketed online, social media has completely changed the way how people perceive these enhancements. You get me? Procedures that once required extensive thoughts and serious research and careful consultation are now being packaged as some trendy self-care rituals. With all of that being said, guys, if you're seeing my face and hearing my voice for the very first time, my name is Jodie and would love to have you join the Islanders family so you'll know what to do. Go on ahead and hit the subscribe button with right down there so you know to become a part of this fam bomb. Now guys, let us begin with one of the most discussed cosmetic procedures online social media and perhaps the one of the most glamorized despite the very real and sometimes possible situations that can unfold from it and that is the BBL known as the Brazilian buttlft. Let's watch.
Offices.
Y'all know that lady that's on here talking about how uh she got her BBL removed because it stinkedked.
Let me tell y'all something. Okay, you know me being in the strip club, me being a dancer, you know, you're around a lot of other girls. Some who just have horrible hygiene and some it be that [ __ ] BBL. Okay. Now, there was this girl that I used to work with or whatever and she was so cool, bro. She was so nice, very pretty, cool on the like, if we say slim thick versus thick thick. She was more on the thicker side of things, right? But besides the point, beautiful girl. Okay. Did good. Okay.
Now, the first time I had ever danced with her, I had been smelling something like I was looking around or whatever. Like you know when you smell something and you're like I know that ain't me. Like I had smelled it to the point that I went to the dressing room right and like when I worked at a lure they used to have these showers all the way in the back when the dressing room used to be on behind the DJ booth right I like went back there and literally was like I went to the house mom like hey Miss Roslin do you I'm not it wasn't me. Okay. So, like I didn't realize like who it was until I actually started to become cool with this girl because we had went on a trip together to dance out of town one time and every time she would go in the bathroom, use the bathroom, she would like, of course, you're supposed to shut the door when you use the bathroom, but when she came out of the bathroom, she would shut the door, too. And she would be like, "Don't go in there." So, I'm always thinking of bowing it up like taking a [ __ ] Right. So, there was one of the days that we were there, I'm doing my makeup in the bathroom, and she came, she was like, "I got to go to the bathroom, whatever." So me like I don't know maybe I'm different but if my home go doing her makeup in the bathroom I'll come in and I got to pee and that's it.
I'll just pee like not that big of a deal. And I was like girl go ahead. She was like no no no. Like so I'm like damn she must got to [ __ ] again y'all. So I come out she pees and she comes out fast. Not like like it didn't take her [ __ ] time. It took pee time. You get what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Like it didn't it wasn't long enough for her to take it was a pee type of Okay, cool. So when she came back out or whatever, she shut the door, whatever. She was like, "Just wait a second to go in there, whatever." But I'm doing my makeup, okay? We're on a time crunch. So I'm like, "Girl, just spray some air freshener or something."
I got like, you know, I go grab my perfume. I go in there, I start spraying it, but then like I start calculating in my head. Oh, she like peed and it didn't smell like it. Like it smelled like ass, but not ass. Like ass. And I don't know how to explain it, y'all. I really don't. But I felt really bad because I don't really think that it was ever her personal hygiene. I really think it was her BBL. Some girls their BBLs reject.
Okay. And so those incision holes that are around the BBL, right? It's like the stench can come from those. Even when they're shut, you know, as it's rejecting it, it's like it's still oozing out a smell. holes closed and everything healed up. It was still like ooze out like a smell. Which I ended up looking this up because when this girl gave the story on how she got her be removed, I was like, "Oh, maybe I can speak on or whatever." Cuz I remember being around somebody like this. But yeah, when y'all be willing to do these surgeries and stuff, y'all need to do all y'all's research, okay? Because if your skin declines to anything, you don't know what could happen after that.
But I will tell you, you know, there are some girls, not saying no names, who got a little BBL smell, okay? And I think that I don't know how you would recover that because all the perfume, all the Freze, all the body oils in the world do not cover it up.
And I could tell you like with this girl when we was out in public, like the more I was around her, I would it was a scent. It was like a part of her body odor, you know? know, you know how we all have like our individual like scents and stuff? Like it was a part of her body odor and she would wear perfume and everything and I could still like smell it to the point where I I'm not going to hold you. I stopped being cool with the girl because in dancer world you are who you hang out with and if I'm cool with her and she want to dance with me, we in a bag now the [ __ ] looking around like which one of you. It was never me. You know what I'm saying? And I didn't want to be around that. So I like made it to her like I didn't want to dance next turn. She was such a cool ass. She really was. And like granted like when I cut her off, she never knows why I cut her off, but when I cut her off, she started talking about me anyways after the fact, but that was the reason I cut her off cuz it really was a cold turkey situation just because like I couldn't be surrounded. And then cuz they ain't going to tell they ain't going they ain't going to let you tell them that they stink on some friendship. Like, hey boo, I don't know what it is, but you know, like dancers, they they not going to take it the way you think. So, I didn't never say anything.
I just stopped being cool with the girl and it would come to a point where we would be at work together and she would walk up like, "Hey, G." And I would be like, "Hey, what's up?" And I'd be like, "Oh, hold on one second." Like I would find any way to get from around her because I didn't want her to think that she could stand around me and we work together, you know? But yeah, some girls do have BBL smells, but it's cuz their bodies rejected. I think it's either their incisions or the BBL procedure. Like cuz you know you're harvesting fat then they're putting it back in. It could be the needle that gave you an infection that they used to you know put it back in. It could be anything. But that's why some girls be stinking. But for real BBL girls like y'all should really humble yourself because my brothers and my my men friends told me that a lot of y'all be stinking. Don't come for the messenger. I'm just saying they said that y don't I don't know if y'all don't know how to reach to your butt like butthole but they say y'all be kind of smelly. So y'all need to check up on that. Y'all need to you know because I believe them.
>> A few cosmetic procedures have been marketed online with the level of glamour and aspirational energy that surrounds the BBL. Now, social media has transformed what a major surgical procedure into something that is often presented as like a luxury glow up experience. If somebody never looked into the reality of this whole procedure and only consumed what social media, the version of social media should say, they might genuinely think that getting a Brazilian butt lift is a simple and expensive um beautifification with a dramatic body reveal waiting for you at the end. But child, come here. Sit down right. Yeah, man. P auntie Jod lap. The truth, however, is that behind many of these glossy post, a recovery process can be physically exhausting, mentally draining, deeply uncomfortable in ways that people very often underestimate.
And one of the most common things that people mention after these surgeries is how shocked they are by the level of discomfort that is involved.
>> Tomorrow is 8 weeks. Let me tell you, this journey has been so crazy. so freaking crazy. I had so many ups, so many downs. Like, I I feel like some people on here, they glamorize it and make it seem like it's just a tummy tuck. No, honey, it's not. Like, you're cutting parts off of you. Like, skin off of you. Like, that used to be me. But, I feel like my process has been so slow, but it's been steady. Like, but only thing I'm dealing with right now is pretty much the swelling. Have a little bit of hardness. Yesterday, I had a massage and my stomach was like super hard. But I think that's just because Saturday and Sunday I was very active and it just blew me up. Even my massage girl was just like, "You're like really swollen. Like what did you do?" I don't know. Just be a mom. But I like that my curves are like there. Some days are more in and I have more of an hourglass figure. But today, this is me. And I was really scared I was going to have doggy ears right here. But no, like the swelling has gone down a lot. This is the side that was giving me problems.
Then I said that this was the up and down side. This side closed so easy and so smooth and now it came no problems.
This one was just so stubborn. Like I still have a scab there. It's just like fall off already. Fall off. But yesterday after my massage, she told me to come home, put on my fa put foam and the board. Let me tell you, I hate this thing. But because it makes me feel so stiff, but this what literally got me down to being like flat cuz yesterday this was like poking out. Like I kind of looked a little pregnant. I was like, "Oh, look at my little baby." But no, I feel like the board helped me. But I hate it. I was just like so freaking stiff. But here we are, baby. Not my glory. So, if you're having a slow recovery, do not beat yourself over it.
No, don't beat yourself because I'm there with you, boo. I'm there with you.
When I had that BBL, the pain that I had there, I was like, I would never ever ever ever ever subject myself to that kind of pain ever again. It was something else. It was the worst thing I had ever tried. It was so painful. This is actually the first time I'm hearing somebody that has done plastic surgery talk about how painful it is. I feel like plastic surgery is so glamorized. Everybody makes it seem like you just go in, you come out, everything is so easy peasy when it is not. I think it's very important for people to talk about the bad sides and the negative sides of these things so that people can actually be aware of what they're getting themselves into. People forget that plastic surgery is actually real surgery. It's like working on your lungs, working on your liver. So, there's a possibility of going in and never coming out. The people that died during plastic surgery, we don't know their stories. Normally, the family members will just cover it up and say maybe they had a heart attack or something like that. I have nothing against plastic surgery, but let's just stop glamorizing it and let's just say the truth.
>> It is not a simple matter of taking it easy for a few days and just enjoying the transformation. Mm. Recovery often means navigating intense soreness, a whole heap of swelling, a whole heap of bruising, restrictive movement, drainage, pressure garments that feel unforgiving. and the challenge of performing even the most basic task while your body is still trying to heal.
>> Apart from using my avocado float, I'd use a lot of pillows.
You will need help to lay down and get up. Make sure your butt is not pressing on surface.
And at 2 weeks and a half, I started laying on side with a pillow under my waist.
Elevate your legs.
>> I'd switch position due to your body gets tired in just one. Also to give my >> I had a BBL six no 7 days ago today and for the next 6 weeks I can't sit on my bum. So I have to sleep with this really gorgeous pillow set up. As you can see, I have these blueies to stop any fluid that comes out. Um, which it looks gross. I'm not showing you that. But yes, this is how I sleep.
The most comfiest setup, but it works.
And it stops the booty from getting too small. So, yes, night night. The sleeping alone sounds like a punishment designed by someone who clearly had unresolved issues with comfort, right guys? The idea of having to remain face down or just carefully position for extended periods sounds manageable in theory. Mhm. Until you realize how quickly your body begins craving the simple freedom of just being able to roll over or roll roll around naturally.
Suddenly something as basic as resting now becomes a carefully calculated operation. And that level of restriction we can't live with. But anyway guys, people some people of course it can damage them mentally faster than they expected to. Then of course I landers there's the emotional side of it of the whole recovery which social media often glosses over almost entirely. People frequently go into these procedures expecting immediate transformation but the body does not work like that on social media timeline. There is swelling, distortion, unevenness and just periods where results can look dramatically different from what was initially anticipated. Right? So some people describe feeling genuinely panicked when they see their first po um posttop body because the swelling can is a temporary which creates a shape or proportion that looks shocking and even unfamiliar.
So my nurse just came because the soup that they gave me, I couldn't I couldn't eat it on my own.
So she came to feed me and then then I got up to walk and just in in the room up and down. So the room is quite big. So up and down the room and then I go to the mirror when I turn around and look in the mirror.
When I turned around and looked in the mirror, yeah, everything looks the same to me.
Everything looks the same.
Everything looks the same. It didn't look no different from how I came in.
I didn't need another life.
And nobody has to tell me. I don't need for anyone to tell me that.
I brought this down on myself cuz I know what I'm doing. Yeah. I know what I've done and I know what I'm doing.
I had to gain weight.
I had to gain weight in order to get fat to put in there.
And I gained I gained like 15 lbs.
Yeah.
Just so I could get fat to put in there to put myself through all this pain again.
for the same.
I'm not looking for sympathy from no one cuz as I said, I know what I'm doing.
But that's why we messed up in the first place.
And I've been specifically asked for a doctor who could fix it.
For a doctor who could fix the problem, I'm going to go to sleep.
I didn't get my surgery for free.
It's It's the free surgery that bum.
Yeah. I paid my money to fix it cuz all this time I've been asking what for them to fix it and nobody was paying me any attention.
Yeah.
and no one was paying me no attention when it comes to fixing it.
I only got responded to when I messaged a doctor directly. Now, everybody works together. So, everyone works together. So, when I messaged a doctor, my company responded to me straight away cuz I was going to go directly to a doctor.
I paid to fix my bum.
And anyone can say what they want to say. I don't care.
I can take the bashing. So, anyone is free to say whatever they want to say or whatever they feel like. But I needed to fix my bum because it started to make me feel insecure.
So, I know I had to get it fixed. I don't regardless of what anyone wants to say and anyone saying nothing's wrong with it cuz as I said I didn't need lipo.
I didn't need to do no lipo.
But anyways, anyways, guess God is telling me something to leave it. But as I said, I didn't born with my bum like that.
I wasn't born that way. So islanders, imagine spending a significant amount of money, w he leap of money on a procedure only to spend the first several weeks staring at your reflection, looking at the mirror and just there wondering whether you have made the worst decision of your life at this point that is going to stay only in my head.
>> Oh my gosh, guys. This beautiful girl named Star the Scar just posted two days ago about how she was traveling with her sister to go get her BBL round two done.
We just found out that she passed away at the recovery house um due to them giving her some medicine that was not prescribed to her. This is actually so sad. And guys, I want to make it clear that this situation actually had nothing to do with the doctor that she went to.
This had everything to do with the recovery house that she went to. They gave her unprescribed medicine. Um and she took that and I I guess it gave her bad side effects to where she has now passed on after her surgery. And it's just so sad. Guys, please be careful and do your research on recovery houses that you are going to when you are going to get these surgeries. Make sure that the the nurses are actually, you know, educated and doing their jobs when it comes to taking care of you after your surgery. Please don't take any medicine that is not prescribed by a doctor. This is so sad. Rest in peace to her. Beware of those posttop recovery homes.
Ladies, those who are going to get surgery, please do your research. I had a client that came to me to get her massages, but she was telling me about her experience at the posttop home. She said that before she went down there, she booked online. Um, this house was just so beautiful.
Um, you know, things like that. Like she's like the pictures looked good.
They had like videos. The food looked at top tier. Y'all, when she got down there, tell me why she stayed at a hotel room.
She said it was a hotel and that good food that she was seeing was the complimentary breakfast from the hotel.
We was laughing so hard, but she said that it was not funny. She says she definitely got scammed.
>> The recovery house horror stories have added an entire layer of to this whole conversation.
Over the years, social media has exposed several stories including overcrowded facilities, limited medical supervision, unsanitary um conditions, poor communication, and just clients feeling neglected during the vulnerable stages of the recovery. For many women, the expectation is that they will be entering like a carefully um monitored healing environment, but instead they have described experiences that felt so chaotic, impersonal, and at times even deeply distressing. Social media tends to spotlight the reveal, but rarely lingers long enough on the pain and the anxiety, the unpredictability, and of course the vulnerability that often comes before it. And that disconnect is exactly why so many people horror stories continue to emerge.
>> So, did y'all know that you can get ptosis, which is eyelid drooping from Botox, even if it's done by a neurologist?
I didn't, but now I sure do. If you're on real islanders and you love to watch these cosmetic procedures horror story, you know I've covered the Botox eyebrow droop feels because this is one of the few cosmetic cap um procedures that captures the internet attention. Nothing quite like the eyebrow that suddenly appears to have lost all its enthusiasm for participating in a facial expression. Botox is often marked as one of those easiest entry points into cosmetic enhancement. Yes. So it is framed as a quick, convenient. It's subtle and almost like routine. A casual framing makes the horror stories way more surprising. And yes, guys, surprising as in pun intended. Hi guys, I just want to share a Botox procedure that I did a week ago was injecting the wrong spot. So, I ended up with a droopy eye and also a bigger eye. I called my primary doctor because I was very scared. It never happened that to me before. So, he prescribed medications.
I've been taking for a week. I just want to raise awareness. Before you go to a place and get your Botox done, try to research the place and also do the injector. When placement does not go as intended or according to plan or does the facial muscles respond unexpectedly, the results include asymmetric, all over the place, lopsided, heaviness, drooping, and just your expression feels strangely disconnected from your intent.
So, the eyebrow droop phenomenon has been especially talked about because it is immediately noticeable. You can't you can't unsee it, right? So if you should think about it, the browser frame the eyes and it contribute enormously to your expression. So like yeah, you probably not see it, but the brows are move. Even in the slightest changes can dramatically alter how someone looks or how they feel.
It's perfect. Thank you. No one's ever going to know.
I mean, it sucks that this happened to me, but I'm sure glad that y'all are here to laugh with me about it because this is [ __ ] Emotional frustration is understandable because the face remains the central to your daily interaction unlike many other of the body focused cosmetic outcomes that can be hidden or during the healing or you know the facial expression is impossible to hide.
You can't fully step away from that unless you lock in your house for 40 days and 40 nights.
So I these are porcelain veneers. They are um I paid a good grip on them. You feel me? Like I paid n for these. And I have good dental hygiene. I had already had my teeth clean. I never had a cavity. I've never had anything wrong with my teeth, root canal, none of that.
Um I got them because I've been put in this little box as a baddie and you know, completing a look. It was my tea. Um, okay. So, I went to a place in Miami and I feel like they're more worried about the money now than the people, period.
Um, I feel like they get you in good because they accommodate you. They accommodate your stay and your it's only accommodated while you going through the process. Um, so basically I went through the process June 6th and then um I basically when I got home I was in a lot of pain but I I chucked it up to the I thought it was the process. My sister is a dental hygienist and yes she did tell me not to do it, not to do it, but I wanted my teeth white. You know what I'm saying? So I did it. My natural teeth, nothing was wrong with my natural teeth.
They were very pretty. I'mma put something up later to show y'all that.
Um, but they weren't this white. You feel me? They were natural white or whatever. So, I wanted the whole look.
So, anyways, this is the one regret I ever made in my life because my number 20 has been hurting me since then. I got my teeth done June 6th. I end up having to turn all the air off in my house because that's how bad my mouth was hurting. After 3 weeks, my sister was like, "Something wrong. You need X-rays." So, I went to my regular dentist. I got X-rays.
>> They saw on the X-ray that number 20 was not on the full margin, which mean my veneer was not all the way on my tooth.
So, a shade, a shave two was exposed. So that's why I was in so much pain. Called call called the place. They like, "Okay, come back in. We don't know you. We don't know till we see it." Went there.
It was just cold. The monster got in my mouth. I was like, "Oh no." I end up crying and everything cuz you really you really, you know what I'm saying? You really at you really, you know what I'm saying? Like you can't do nothing. You just got to beg them to fix it. So I basically was in there crying like my teeth messed up. They put a bond, a temporary bond on it to at my dentist to help me, but this veneer is not right.
So boom, they put a temporary on and the permanent one wasn't done in the same week. So I ended up having I ended up having to go back home on my flight on Saturday. They came on the weekend. So boom, I done flew back and forth there like four times now. And now this time I got to go back again because my 20 is still in pain. It's very sensitive. I can't floss properly. When I floss, it don't automatically go out.
>> I'm at a kickback. So please, you know what I'm saying? Work with me with the background. fight. I'm at a fight party or whatever.
>> So, long story short, my veneers um I love how they look, but I hate that I can't eat on my left side like I want to. I can eat anything on my right side.
I can eat eat on my right side, but if anybody know anything about dentistry, you can't just eat on one side. So, I start feeling a lot of pain on my right side if I eat over there too much. So, I have to eat on my left side, but it's so painful if it hit that number 20. So, at this point, I'm calling them like, I got to come back in. Now mind you, what I hate about that is mind. I'm going to Miami. I'm flying to Miami. I got to play for my flight during back. They are not accommodating you. Even though they the ones messed up my teeth, they don't accommodate my state when I when I come to fix my teeth. When I come to fix my bite, they don't accommodate anybody anything after you pay to get your teeth done. Um, everything was nice while I was getting the process done. But I feel like once you get it done and you give them the money, like they really don't care. Even though they my mouth, like they don't care like to accommodate me while they fix it. And it's hard for me to say how my mouth feels while I'm there because I'm on all this medication. Like they put the needle in your mouth. You fully numb. I be numb for like 4 hours. That [ __ ] don't wear out till like 4 hours later. By time it wear off, they close. They close. Then the next day they might have an appointment. They might not. My last appointment was at 10 o'clock in the morning. I wouldn't see until six o'clock in the evening. You know what I'm saying? But so long story short, I just want to um put a few, you know, answer a few questions. These are porcelain. I can't eat on my right side.
Anything I want to eat, I don't have no problems with my right side. It's just my left side and that number 20. So I got 10 at the top, 10 at the bottom. So I still have like four teeth on each side that are not covered. I think it's four. one who I mean two of them.
>> Yeah, I still have four too. Four teeth cuz I don't have wisdom teeth. I never had two.
>> I was blessed to be born without them.
Um >> but yeah, long story short, these are porcelain. I did pay like nine grand for my teeth >> and I went to dental design >> and they don't give a about you once you pay their money >> and they didn't have [ __ ] to do to my teeth and people that have the mouths had the best experience because they pretty much shave all teeth down. All you they must take a lot they do a lot of root canals and all of that. So I just hate going back and forth in Miami with no accommodation. Now, they accommodated me >> for for having to go back and forth because they I wouldn't even be complaining, but I don't even complain because like, damn. You know what I'm saying? I'm in there crying to y'all telling y'all like, "Look, this how I feel." I ain't asking for no refund or nothing like that. I like I said, I love how my teeth look. I just hate that number 20, it just hurt too bad. I can't eat on it. I And when I say I can't eat on it, I mean little [ __ ] like ice cream is sensitive. I I was just drinking a lemonade. That [ __ ] was sensitive. You know what I'm saying? Right.
Care about your customers.
>> Oh guys, could we shift things up a little bit? I hope you're enjoying the video thus far and let us talk about one of the most internet controversial cosmetic phenomenon which is the Turkey teeth veneers. And we're not going to single out Turkey, but Turkey is the most popular place. We're not going to stick to Turkey for the purpose of this video. Entire timelines have become filled with people flying abroad to get dental work, documenting their luxurious clinic as per usual, revealing strikingly bright smiles and just presenting the entire experience as a glamorous transformation journey. At first glance, it is easy to understand the appeal. A bright symmetric smile carries numerous visual impact. It's beautiful.
It photographs well. It instantly changes the facial appearance and it has become heavily associated with confidence and status and just a whole polished aesthetic. Social media amplified that appeal even further because dramatic before and after reveals perform exceptionally well. The concern however becomes from what is often omitted from those glossy transformation videos. many discussion online and as I've raised here before questions about how much of the natural tooth structure is sometimes altered in preparation for certain veneer procedures and this is where the conversation becomes more serious than just a simple cosmetic refresh. So the phase where this turkey teeth itself become more popular partly because people begin reacting to reveals that look dramatically oversized like unnaturally opaque so the color is extra bright and of course disconnection from the facial proportions when I mean you know I'm starting to get a little bit [ __ ] stuff now I'll be honest with you with every single time I do a Tik Tok or a video people commenting I know it's for attention people commenting saying worst teeth I've ever seen. They look like a patent chewing gum. They look like a gum shield. They look like piano keys. The teeth cost £6,000 to get done.
There's a reason they cost £6,000. The reason they cost £6,000 is because I went to the best people in the world to get them done. I said I went to Turkey cuz that's where the best veneers are.
Look at them. How can you say that they do not look good? They are so white.
They've got the perfect size gap in between. The shape is absolutely perfect. And there's a reason people keep stopping me saying, "Where did you get your teeth done?" Because they look so natural. That's what I got. The natural look. So, will people stop please commenting saying about my teeth?
It's so annoying.
They're good man. What's wrong with people? Now, for the people who are commenting nice things, if you want to see the behind the scenes where my teeth got shaved down, everything else, click the link in my bio. There's a free Telegram. Join the Telegram. Everything behind the scenes is in there. Thanks for the people who are commenting nice though.
>> I broke my veneer yesterday and my dentist changed their name. They changed their number. They changed their WhatsApp number. So, I'm currently on my way to drive 40 minutes to my dentist office to see if they're even in the same location. Cuz if they're not, what am I going to do with a broken veneer? Like, who's going to fix it?
He went to a place called Princess Cuts, paid $2,600, got a set of veneers.
I'mma let y'all see.
I'mma let y'all see.
They were done incorrectly.
Now, he has so much bone loss that his teeth are loose. So, now we got to do something else called Allon 4, all on X, which is going to cost him 50 grand.
Don't take shortcuts with your health.
Do it right the first time. Please take a look at this.
Some results sparked immediate concern because they look less like a natural smile and more like somebody had installed an entirely different set of teeth without even considering harmony or proportion. Just the whole overall facial balance right now. Some of them look like chicklets. To be honest with you, there is something deeply unsettling about seeing someone smile and immediately sensing that the results feels visually disconnected from the rest of their face. Right? So, a smile should enhance your expression like it.
And when it overwhelms the face entirely, people are going to notice.
Then of course guys, then there are the stories from individuals who later share their regret, their discomfort, the sensitivity issues, the dissatis dissatisfaction of the aesthetics or just expensive corrective journeys. What initially seemed like a dream transformation sometimes evolve into a prolonged process of adjustment, correction, and of course emotional frustration. So, I've been in constant pain ever since I went and had my teeth done in Turkey back in February. It's been so bad I've had to take constant pain relief every 4 hours for the past 3 months. I went to a dentist over here and basically they told me they weren't going to touch it. It isn't their problem. Um, my boyfriend had his teeth done and it's been a completely different experience for him. His have been fine. He's had no issues whatsoever. shouldn't still be in pain after 3 months. My top teeth have been fine for the most part, but my lower jaw is where I've had a lot of pain and reactions to hot and cold.
I popped out my veneer about 2 weeks ago and I have zero inclination to go back to Turkey. I am terrified going to a dentist in Ireland cuz they have me too.
Um, so what I did instead is I ordered a load of [ __ ] online to glue it back in myself. Take this as a tutorial if you want. I don't know how it's going to go.
We'll see. So, this is all the [ __ ] I got. I got uh some light. Got that in AliExpress.
I got um some glue. That's supposed to be the good stuff. Love that. I got um etching gel. I don't know what that does. I got some applicator things. I got some some selain. Love that. I got some I don't know etching gel for the veneer. Oh my god. I got some um I don't know adhesive, some cheap adhesive. I was Yeah, paying more than [ __ ] that.
And that's some others. I'm actually half nervous. Um so I was watching a couple videos. Uh they said to like dry off the veneer. So they have all um that blowy thing that the dentists have. I don't have that. So that seems dry. Apparently you need to put extra gel on it for porcelain. I think this stuff is too strong. I think you're supposed to get like Oh my god, it's on the floor. You're supposed to get like four or 5% and this is like 20%. So I don't know what it's going to do. Um, and you just put that on. Wait, why did I dry it? I'm sure you're supposed to like dry it after.
I don't know. I'll show you what I know.
Okay, so I have the etching gel. How am I supposed to show this? How the implants do it?
Oh, wait. Is that right?
Well, that's Well, that seems like a lot.
I know.
That's actually [ __ ] Look at me.
I'm sure you're supposed to leave it on for like I don't know like 20 seconds, 10 seconds.
I don't know.
Will this like eat through the veneer now? Just going to go wash it.
I think it's been long enough. I'm going to go wash it and dry it off. I got some cotton swabs out of my mom's room.
Okay, so I just dried that off. Um, now is that seline you're supposed to put on? I'm sure that's like a primer for the [ __ ] Um, I don't know.
Oh [ __ ] it's actually watery.
That onto the inside and dry that.
So, I'm just going to leave the veneer dry, I think. And I'm going to I don't know.
This feels a bit invasive now. Pulling on the mustache.
I know. I can't see nothing.
Oh, that feels disgusting. Okay, I'll try with one.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, that'll have to do.
Is that the grade? I as well.
Now I have to etch my tooth. I believe I got this stuff. It's what is it? Fast fast poric acid. Put that on your tooth.
I don't think you're supposed to touch your gums, but I don't really care.
That sounds nice.
Don't eat this. Oh my god, it's disgusting. Oh my.
That'll do.
It's finally time to glue in this [ __ ] thing.
So, what I have is this Reli Veneer stuff.
I got the white opaque cuz my thing is quite see-through and my tooth is quite yellow underneath.
So, if I put a good whack onto it just cuz I want to make sure it sticks.
I put too much, but you get the vibe.
Yuck.
Okay. I don't know why is the right one to get.
Oh no.
So, I'm just going to keep pushing it until it's like where it feels right.
Okay. Sorry. And then and then just tack it. Ah, this is a [ __ ] disaster. That's And just tack it for like two seconds, I think.
One, two.
Okay.
Okay. So, I gave it its tack light, which is supposed to leave it like malleable, but it wasn't. So, I've just been like scratching out the [ __ ] glue back here, and it hasn't really worked.
Um, so I'm going to have to get one of them saw things to saw it out properly, which is balls. Like, um, where light gone? Oh, no. Oh, never mind. I have it here. So, what you have to do then finally is glue it in fully by holding this down for ages. So, I'm just going to do that. It's fine. Like, like you wouldn't really take too much notice.
And this is just like they say you can't overcure it, you can undercure it.
Brand. So, it's done. It's glued in.
We'll see how long it lasts. I have to get the one of the saw things now for back here cuz I didn't do a great job cleaning it up. But it is in.
It'll do.
Okay. So, I'm just asking the patient again, how's the pain? No, no pain.
Yeah. See, we put anesthetic.
So, when we put the needle in, patient doesn't feel any pain. The only discomfort the patient will feel is when I am pulling the thread up, when I'm pulling this fat pad up, is when she feels a little bit of discomfort. But like, it's not I think the video looks worse than it actually is. Really isn't bad.
Okay. So, if we straighten up just so that patients don't think I'm making you look lopsided by the position of your face. So, we've done two threads now.
And what I want to show you is there is no down time. Look at that. That is just one two tiny spots cuz that's my nie.
We're just going to cover that up. But there isn't any bruising or anything for the patient to have a downtime. And she basically will just put some ice packs on for today. Maybe take a pinado cuz we are still going to do her toxin. So she's going to have a lot of injections just for someone who started off in aesthetics. And that's about it. She'll be good to go for holiday. I mean, she's going away this weekend. So we are looking good. But look at the under eye area, guys. Look at this. And look at that. Look at the volume here. And look at that fat pad on the other side.
This is the ponytail lift. Look at the eyebrow.
Also, comment down below and let me know if you have ever heard about the fox eye thread lift. Yeah, because this arrived with all the classic signs at social media aesthetic obsession. It was a sharp, dramatic, instantly recognizable and heavily associated with the ultra sculpted editorial beauty standard. You know the look go up. So, so for a while it seemed impossible to escape. You can't see it. Everywhere you turn, it is there. Thread lifts became one of the most talked about ways to temporarily create that lifted appearance without a full surgery or a full face lifting. So the appeal was obvious. You want that dramatic visual change with less downtime less more invasive than other alternatives aka you know like a facelift. Then the complications began entering the public conversation. The complication said listen I have entered the chat. People started sharing their stories of dis um discomfort. There are visible irregulations asymmetric all over the place unusual pulling sensation and just prolong the tenderness and the results that they did not settle as expected. Guys, you need to stop and watch. If you're considering getting foxey threads done, do not get them done because I nearly ended up with sepsis.
I'll just show you this photo. Wait a minute.
It took me six months to get rid of the infection. I got infected in my eyes, all at the side of my face. My face went swollen. My eyes went puffy. I had black eyes. I ended up on a drip in the hospital. Antibiotics, steroids, and it was not budging. This is another photo.
And just look at this one.
And this one as well.
I just got out the shower and look all that puss is coming out of there.
All pulse coming out of it.
What the [ __ ] The face is not static.
It moves constantly through expression, through speech, through eating, through laughing, talking and just, you know, everyday functionality. You get it? So altering your tension patterns, tiny up your face like that through threads immediately complicates or add some complexity. Then I said the word complexity.
You know what I'm saying?
So these stories that emerge guys often reveal like a disconnect between expectation and lived experience. Right?
So, social media cells continue to sell us this polish final angle. Reality does include does involve healing and unpredictability and the body respond in ways that no edited reveal can fully capture.
>> During the procedure, they popped a blood vessel in my face. I didn't know that that had happened, but later on I found out that that was what happened.
>> Jesse's Foxy thread lift procedure ended up turning into her biggest regret.
that caused me to blow up like mega mind. There's another photo of it. They were like, "Oh no, this is completely normal. Um, your swelling will go down in like a week's time. Just put ice on it." In total though, I think I was a balloon for about like 2 weeks or 2 and 1/2 weeks. This is like the second day, I'm pretty sure, after getting it done.
This was the third day, I'm pretty sure, cuz I went back in for a quick checkup.
During the second week, I started noticing bruising on my left eye, which is the same eye that the blood vessel popped off. The swelling eventually went down, but then Jesse noticed that one brow had dropped. The same thing then happened to the other one, meaning she had no fox eye lift results at all. And the threads started to poke out of her face, so she needed to have them surgically removed.
>> If you guys can't tell, I got my threads removed. Um, my face currently looks like I've got two golf balls on them, but it's fine.
>> Some of the threads had already dissolved, so they removed the ones that they could and stitched it up. And this is me now.
So, my foxey thread has turned blackish, which is very concerning. So, I have come to my cosmetic surgeon, which I thought I was never going to come back to again, and he's going to have a look at my threads and hopefully let me know what's happening.
He put a steroid injection into the area. I think that um lightens the scar and also helps with how the scar is currently progressing. So, it's been a couple of days since I got the steroid injection and from what I've noticed, it's taken away all of the inflammation.
So, it was a bit like out before and now it's kind of like sunken in. It's almost like there's an indent in my head now.
Also notice the color is turning back to more of a reddish color rather than a black color.
I don't know if it will go away cuz it's been like a month or so now I think and nothing's changed but I'm just hoping over time it does. People have been saying that it looks like necrosis or like these other conditions um happening on the thread. Um but the doctor has said that it isn't anything major or serious. It's just a scar. There's no pain or anything there. It's literally like I could press on it as hard as I wanted and it doesn't hurt or anything like that. So yeah, I don't think there's too much to worry about in that.
>> Now guys, we're going to move into the deep or the fake dimple piercing. I can't even say this with a straight face. Hold on. Take a pin. In the meantime, just go ahead and like the video and subscribe if you haven't already.
>> Okay, guys. So, everyone wants me to do the dimple makeup. So, I'm doing it right now. I'm going to leave it on for like a few minutes and I'll come back and update you guys. Okay. No, this >> Okay, guys. So, I've had them on for like half an hour now. I don't know if it's going to work, but like we're just going to take it off anyways.
Okay. Wait, it didn't work. It just gave me a mark.
Hi. So yan pound third day na na p third third day na ng healing process ng dimple plastic eto yung sa right perong left ano normaly para silang peri normal There are certain beauty trends that make you pause and genuinely wonder who first looked into the mirror and thought, you know what would completely transform my life? Permanent dimples.
Got it. Got it. So this trend remains one of the most fascinating example of how highly specific aesthetic features can suddenly become desirable enough for people to seek surgical intervention.
People normally born with these things.
Dimples have been a long associated with charm and youthfulness and just facial softness because they are naturally occurring and relatively uncommon. But somehow along the way, however, appreciation for the natural dimples evolve into people actively pursuing surgical procedures designed to create them. Father God, you see this? If you're not busy, Father God, come here.
>> So, I keep getting questions about my dimple plasty on other videos, and I thought I'd do one big video to kind of cover them all as well as obviously answer your question. And I have photos from like before, during, after, and I know a lot about it now. So, um, yeah, stay tuned if you want to know more about dimple plasties, if you're considering getting one. Hopefully, this kind of helps you decide better. Um, but yeah, I had a dimple plasty in 2020, um, at the start of the year, and the procedure is basically they stitch dimples into your face and they are permanent, so they're they're there for life. Um, I thought it was temporary, but no, they're there for life. I paid around £2,000 for it. Um, I saw someone comment this on my other video, but you do have to be over 18. um to have the surgery because it's cosmetic surgery.
You can't like have like a permission from your parents that you just have to be over 18. Um it essentially feels like a trip to the dentist. I'm not going to lie. Um it was a pretty quick procedure.
It's half an hour, 15 to 20 minutes on each dimple and then you walk out. I have a photo from straight after. Okay, so this is like literally like minutes after I hopped off the operating table.
I'm literally in the waiting room um waiting for my Uber here. So, that's immediately how they looked after on one side. I had them on both, but it looked the same. Okay, this is like a really gross photo of me, so apologies for that. Um, trigger warning, but this is how it looked around a week and a half later. Um, yeah, it was pretty gross. So, I managed to get an infection in one of them, which was not fun. And I think it may have made my healing process a bit more not fun than it could have been. But, it wasn't a really brutal healing process.
I'm not going to lie. I've had worse experiences in my life, but I did get one infected and I went to hospital and they just gave me antibiotics for it and it was sorted in 24 hours. But yeah, they look like that for a while. They're very deep and you do kind of look like people would kind of stare at you a bit weird um in school or at work or whatever um you have them done and they stay like that for a while. So mine look like that for around 2 to 3 weeks until they started to look normal. Let me see if I have another picture. Hang on.
Okay, I spoke way too soon. I unfortunately do not have a photo from like straight after they healed, but I have obviously now they've healed. It's been like nearly 3 years and nothing is there. Like my face is relaxed even without makeup, without like smoothing filters, there's nothing there. Not even like a mark or slight discoloration that would show you that there was like um surgery there. They only pop out when I speak sometimes or like obviously when I smile. So yeah, I think it was a worthwhile investment. Um but yeah, the healing process does look a bit crazy for a few weeks before they settle down.
>> Alone feels surreal when people really think about it and people is me at this point. Let me know how feel about all of this guys. The idea of undergoing a cosmetic procedure that creates the illusion of a naturally inherited facial trait feels like such a fascination reflection of modern beauty culture. You know on this channel we talk about that a lot. The issue of course is that facial movement is deeply complex is more than what you think. Oh me I talk here. So replicating natural dimples through surgery is not always um produced results that moves or settle or just appear as expected. Some outcomes have looked subtle and convincing, while others have drawn immediate attention for looking unusually placed, over pronounced, or just disconnected from the natural facial expression or even in some cases a whole breakout.
Good morning.
I think I'm going to have to take my piercing out.
This one does fine. It's amazing. It don't hurt. It don't nothing. This one I can damn near look at it and it's going to get like this. And it does it at least like once a month. And supposedly it takes a year for it to fully heal.
Well, they never fully heal, but to at least get to a place like this.
I don't know. I've gave this like 10 chances, but I think I'm going to remove it today.
We'll see what they say after I leave um the shop.
I'll update. But yeah, I think and then look make my face look all Yeah. No, we got to fix this. I don't know. Then of course, there are the fake piercing procedures and the permanent facial modification designed to mimic temporary aesthetic choices, aka the dimples. This trend speaks directly to social media's appetite for how you look. The horror stories often involve the results that age unpredictability. Of course, you know, as you get older, you can imagine what going to happen. Subtle awkwardness and of course it creates an asymmetric that becomes increas not noticeable over time. So people know you and you do that it obvious. What makes these stories particularly compelling to me is the reminder that trends evolve quickly but permanent facial changes it remain. What feels aesthetically exciting now in 2026 in one moment may 10 years down the line feels completely different. And you know guys the beauty standards are ever shifting. It changes every single day. I used to get trolled so badly. Um, you know, I was standing in a bar buying a drink for me and my friend and some man come up to me and he was like, "Oh, you've got a great body, but what have you done to your face?" Why I decided to get my filler dissolved. There was a couple of reasons, not mainly um because of the the migration. There was also a time where for the for my business, I did a speaking video um to advertise the business and some woman actually made a poster of me, posted it all over her story being like, "What are these people doing to their faces?" And although I think, oh, you know, you shouldn't let people, you know, make a difference in in your choice, your life choices and stuff like that, but I just think, oh my god, my my little boy is starting school soon and the last thing I want is for him to have a freak of a mum at the school. Um, and I just, even though I loved them, and I'm not not going to say I'm not going to have any more filler put in because I I personally do like having filler in my lips, I think it's just made me realize that, you know, watch watch what you say to people because, you know, you don't know how that might affect someone. So, if getting a filler is often marketed as a simple maintenance, as we spoke about, dissolving is quietly presented as an easy undo button. It not so easy. The assumption has led many people into experiences that they did not fully anticipate. Like sir, miss, you never say enough for this. But the phase I'm just getting it dissolve sound really casual. It sounds almost like reassuringly simple. At least that's what I thought before I started doing these videos. It creates that impression that reversal is so quick and clean and it is predictable one and done. But the reality is often way more far more complicated. Dissolving journeys have become some of the most emotionally revealing cosmetic stories online because they expose how difficult it can be to reverse aesthetic choices once the body has already adapted to them. So you find that guys people often begin dissolving after recognizing migration.
So the filler start move all over the place. Overfilling, puffiness, distortion or just simply you just no longer feel aligned with this enhanced appearance. You nobody want it. So the expectation is often um relieved.
Instead people just describe swelling and unevenness and discomfort and maybe unexpected reactions and just emotional distress during the process.
I got my filler dissolved because simply I was not happy with the way my lips looked. Uh I had filler migration and a bump in one of my in my top lip. So what a filler migration is when so let's say this is your actual lip line and when they put a lot of filler in this vermilion border I don't know if I pronounced that right.
Your filler starts moving. So my filler was like all the way here like this looked like a lip instead of here in the pink part. Actually, it's purple right now, but basically my filler moved, which is really normal. And also, I had a bump here for a while now. Uh, I'm going to post a video of that later, but I was just not happy with my lips. And if you are not happy with your lip fillers, you should get them dissolved and redo them if that's what you want to do. And of course, Ias, there's also the psychological adjustment of seeing your face change again after becoming accustomed to the enhanced features. So even when the goal is like returning to a more natural appearance that that transition if you think about it can feel unexpectedly disoriented because you feel like one person you look at yourself for 10 years all of a sudden you face change again. So Mhm. know guys watching this you know the horror stories are not always so dramatic like in a medical sense. Sometimes the real challenges lies with the uncertainty and just repeating correcting the correction sessions and the amount of money we have to spend and just imagine not only that the emotional tone of just feeling caught between wanting wanting a reversal and of course fearing the unpredictability of the pro of the whole process itself. I >> feel absolutely insane right now.
Dissolve my lip filler.
These are my lips.
isn't like a color. This is like the these are my lips. I had migration literally all up here. And when they tell you don't get lip fillers, believe him. Every time I sleep on this side of my face, the lip filler migrates all the way over there. And every every morning I be having to go like this. Go like this. Go like this. It's It's time to take these out. It's time to take them out. For real, >> guys. My lips have migrated and I don't know what to do. Like this is this is not good. Literally feels like a huge ball is just sitting here. I only got.5 in them today and I'm wondering do I need to get these dissolved or will do you reckon it will just even out? I'm putting ice on them but I can feel that ball. I I've got my lips done for years and this is never Oh no. What the [ __ ] You guys please give me tips cuz I don't want to get them dissolved cuz I can't I I can't have time. I go to I go overseas next week and I know the healing process of getting them dissolved can be a long thing. So what do I what this is this is really not good guys. I just got all my filler dissolved and look at the before.
Okay, this is how we were looking before and it's my injector is so good. It was just like I've been to three four different injectors over the past four years and I feel like it was all just building up and migrating and it was just a lot. Like you can tell I was getting the little mustache. It just like I feel like it was making my face like puffier with all the filler in it.
like it was just filling too much that I didn't need filled. So, I went to go get dissolved. And this is 2 days after dissolving. Let me show you. Like y'all, I feel like I can like s like I literally we still have a little bit to go cuz like I have to go back for a second round, but like this is so much better. Like like I feel like it's like my smile again. Like I feel like myself. She did so good. I love her. I got a sweet grass. Um she was so understanding. So like a great like this is a great plan.
Let's do it.
I'm so happy. I'll keep you guys updated, but like this is only 2 days after the dissolving and like the swelling's already on the way down. So, if the BBL becomes a social media ultimate body transformation trend, a facial filler quietly is becoming the favorite subtle enhancement obsession.
Yes, me chat about it. The word subtle is doing an awful a lot of the heavy lifting here because what often begins as a minor adjustment can gradually evolve into something much more noticeable without the person even realizing how dramatically things have changed. Now occupies a fascinating place in the beauty culture because it is often presented as the perfect in between option. You get me? It is marketed as less extreme than surgery, quicker than any major procedure and often framed as an ease, you know, a little touch up, a little refresh. The language around it is intentionally casual. So people talk about, you know, topping up the lips or just restoring the volumes or defining the cheeks or, you know, smoothing the under eyes and refining contours as these are ordinary maintenance appointment. No different from getting maybe your eyebrows done or maybe even a wax. The problem is that gradual change can be deceptive because enhancements often happen incrementally over time. People adjust to their evolving experience in real time. So what would have looked dramatically different to them 2 years earlier can slowly become the new normal. Like who is this? Is that your real face? This is where the filler migration enters a conversation and where things become genuinely unsettling for many people.
>> Okay, watch me ruin my beauty with filler. This is what I started off at 21 years old. Never did anything to my face. First syringe of filler in my lips. Second syringe of filler in my lips. Cheek filler. Jawline filler. Chin filler. More cheek filler. More lip filler. Okay, so now I look like a human blowup doll. I can't even tell you how I thought this looked good. Hold on.
>> Completely different face. Here is my Simpson lip from the side. And I was working at very prestigious medical spas at this time. Like nobody said anything.
Like this was like a normal look. This is one of the worst photos I have of myself because I didn't take it. There's no filter. The lighting is not good. And I look absolutely insane.
>> I know how dysmorphic filler can be.
This happened over a period of like 5 years or so. So, this is me this past summer. It's been a work in progress getting back to my old self, but I can't be more happy. I feel like I look like I'm back in my 20s again. I feel like I look like myself. So, if you guys are interested in knowing what I've done, I don't know if you want to know. Um, let me know in the comments and like and follow for more. Good morning, y'all.
So, today I am doing something really big um that I've been contemplating on.
I've been kind of dreading it. I've been meaning to do it for a really long time.
I am going to get my lip fillers dissolved.
So, um, they're just really uneven. I don't know if migrated is like the correct term for like what's wrong with them, but they're uneven. One side is bigger than the other. The front camera actually does me a lot of justice. I will show you guys the before and after after my appointment. Um, and what exactly I mean, but um, I just really feel like my shape is gone. Um, I just really wanted more definition and more volume, but it kind of took away from like my shape. I really wanted a more defined cupid's bow and me getting the fillers. Um, I don't know if it's like, you know, how how I got them or how much I got, but I feel like it took away from my cupid's bow. So, I'm just doing a little come with me to get my lip fillers resolved. So, let's go. I'm actually already on highway, but let's go.
So this is immediately after my appointment.
She said that my lips will take um about two to three days to go down. So I will keep you guys updated in about 3 days.
Realization that filler can shift over time can cause a major shift in public awareness. So for years many people assumed that filler just remained neatly confined to the area where it was placed. Then educational discussions, scans, dissolving journeys and of course a practitioner explain that begin um circulating online. So showing that things are not always so straightforward. So suddenly people begin to re-evaluating what they thought they understood and some of them guys unfortunately it was just too late. So we now have an explanation of the pillowface phenomenon which is that filler does not just dissolve or metabolize over time. It in fact migrates or spreads to other areas of your face and continues to cause tissue expansion. And so the people who make a habit of getting filler regularly, this is kind of what you end up with. Now, I haven't worked in a med spa in close to 3 years at this point, so I guarantee the dialogue has been changing. Like, I always knew there was a possibility of the filler migrating or seeping into other areas of the phase, but now that almost seems like a guarantee. And the dialogue about how long it lasts, it was always kind of like it's different for everybody. But on average, it'll last like 6 to 12 months. So, I don't know.
At this point, I would just love to hear from other experts on the topic. like is the protocol now to always do a round of dissolvant before putting in more filler and what's the dialogue? What do you say to your patients whenever they're asking how long is this going to last? And then what's your opinion on filler outside of the lips messing with your lymph system?
But you know what I really want to know?
I is it true that filler is a dying trend? Like what are you physically seeing in your clientele? Is it steady growth going down up and down?
The internet immediately did what it always does when presents, you know, with a new information. It becomes aggressively um investigative, right?
People beginning over analyzing old photos, comparing celebrities appearances across timelines, zooming into facial changes, and of course debating whether a certain transformation rejected migration or it was overfilling or just simply changing the aesthetic um preferences. If you should really ask me, social media at this point has transformed into one big giant of unofficial cosmetic investigation board. We need an acronym for that. And what makes a whole pillow face practically sounds interesting is how the beauty standard can become distorted through repeated exposure. I said this in my last um update, right?
When overfield features become common in the online spaces, then people's visual references points to begin to shift. So these enhancements that might look um obviously excessive from the start start registering to you as normal or as polished or even aspirational for some people that normalization quietly influence these decision making in many ways that people do not immediately recognize. And just like the BBL, there is also the emotional complexity of realizing that the face you have carefully curated no longer looks like the way you intended. Many dissolving journeys becomes with that exact moment of recognization. Well, islanders open because after watching all of these stories and go through everything. What stands out the most is not simply the whole cosmetic procedures that can go wrong. You know, is what stands out to me is how social media transform the way how people really perceive risk. Look on that. Enhancement itself is not the whole villain here. Cosmetic procedures are as me say guys it's a personal choice and many people have positive experiences they gone through them surgery and they are happy and as me say you are the birthday on big up on yourself the problem begins when aesthetic becomes so normal online that serious interventions starts feeling casual guys use head please beauty trend is always evolving it's ever changing and social media will always present these new ideals, these new procedures and of course promises of new transformation then and what remains a constant however is the importance of thoughtful decision making realistic expectation and all the possibilities and of course guys remembering that your face and your body deserve more consideration than whatever trends are now currently popping online or you scroll for your social media timeline and said this month it Just be just be careful. And honestly guys, after today's conversation, I think that many of us are probably really looking into the mirror and being a little bit more appreciate showing a little bit more appreciation for the features already staring back right at us. So, as always, Islanders family, I want to hear your thoughts. Which one of these cosmetic procedure horror stories shocked you the most? Chime down.
