Yeah, it's a little strange that people worry about things that have absolutely no bearing on them and want to make you feel self conscious about it.

Breast reductions tend to be about reducing strain on the back and the rest of the body.

This reminds me. April 13th I have my cool
sculpting consultation.

Im not fat but just have like a half inch of fat standing between me and my 6 pack abs. I could do a shit ton of crunches with a medicine ball... but fuck that shit. I heard that cool sculpting permanent removes those fat cells so long as I continue my healthy lifestyle.

Clench281 is a man who got breast reduction because he has gynecomastia. It's purely cosmetic.

I was on and looking at myself in the mirror and figured I'm the only one who notices it and that it's not really worth $500.

Why would it not be able to lead to breasts heavy enough to cause back strain?

Also, with our modern focus on mental health, should surgery that could allow improvement of one's self image, still be called "purely cosmetic"?

No, his were not. He got it purely for aesthetics.

And I don't even care if anyone gets surgery for purely cosmetic reasons. It's their body and they can do what they want. We don't need to argue about that. I got my chin done for purely cosmetic reasons.

And why is a certain level of vanity a bad thing? Not saying you're saying that, just spring boarding. If someone is vain in so far as they want to fix something they don't like I don't see how that should be embarrassing, lol.

yeah i dont think vanity is bad or that it really matters why somebody wants cosmetic surgery as long as it's safe. i meant more that 'vanity' vs 'improve my self image' is saying something similar just with a different connotation

Because even before his surgery Clench had the sort of upper body most men will only ever dream of having. He's in excellent shape, and his gynecomastia amounted to such a tiny blemish that he was really the only one that noticed it. It was very much not enough to ever stand even a remote chance of causing health problems, and surgically correcting it was entirely a cosmetic matter (helped along by a bit of body dysmorphia).

They make chin implants! This girl I went to college with messaged me after I got my chin done and told me all about how she got a chin implant because she had a weak jawline

It really is. Anything with your face can be debilitating if you have body image issues or body dysmorphia because it's what everyone sees whenever you present yourself. You can't cover it (now you can with masks but prior to covid no one was wearing those.)

Fair. That's a pretty reasonable price to fix something that bothers you.

I worry about going bald some day, but $10K to $20K for a hair transplant is fucking insane.

Those same pills have a chance of causing permanent erectile dysfunction. Clinical estimates out the risk between 1 and 2%.

I'll pass.

It's like people shitting on CGI. The really bad CGI stands out so it gets a bad rep, but the really good CGI with just nice little bits here and there isn't even noticed, but it looks nice.

Lots of people get plastic surgery. Good ones you don't know it. Some jobs are really botched and that gets a lot of attention and biases a dialogue around it in general.

You look great, it looks natural.

Also people are critical of women, perceived vanity, jealousy, etc.

Haters gonna hate.
