Georgie认为医美并不能改变一个人的身份、运气或生活,其带来的快乐仅仅在于改变你不喜欢的容貌。她分享了自己做医美的经历,最初是因为对自身容貌的不安全感和身份认同的缺失,后来逐渐意识到医美并不能解决人生中更大的问题。她建议大家在做医美前要考虑清楚,是否出于自身需求,以及医美是否真的能解决你的问题,并强调医美并不会改变你的生活,大多数情况下别人也看不出来。 Melody分享了自己从中学时期就开始做医美的经历,最初是因为母亲的影响,后来也受到周围环境和社交媒体的影响,尤其在中国医美非常普遍的环境下,她尝试了各种医美项目,包括激光、填充等。她认为Sculptra是目前为止做的最好的医美项目,因为它可以刺激胶原蛋白再生,效果持久且副作用较小。 Victoria建议初次尝试医美的人可以考虑肉毒素注射,因为它安全且恢复期短。她认为医美不会改变一个人的身份,更像是新的化妆方式,可以帮助人们提升自信,但不能解决根本问题。 Melody和Victoria都认为医美并不能改变一个人的身份,更像是新的化妆方式,可以帮助人们提升自信,但不能解决根本问题。她们建议大家在做医美前要先考虑清楚是否出于自身需求,以及医美是否真的能解决你的问题。

Shownotes Transcript

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), over 75% of US plastic surgeons have seen an increase in their services over the past three years. Today, we talk about social media and its effects on beauty, why demand for cosmetic surgery is booming, and the most common cosmetic plastic surgery procedures done today.

Our guest today is a visual artist, educator, dancer, lacrosse player, and most importantly go-to friend we go to for beauty advice — Georgie! Listen to hear about the general trend of cosmetic surgery in the United States and China, and how each of us have been impacted by the standards of beauty to partake in different cosmetic treatments.
