Why China is Worried About Plastic Surgery

- The Chinese “beauty economy” is poised to be the biggest in the world, with growth dwarfing that of other nations. But this blockbuster rise in chemical treatments and plastic surgery could be cut short if Beijing decides it doesn’t fit with President Xi Jinping's “common prosperity” doctrine.

Do you think China's 'common prosperity' doctrine hamper the growth of China's beauty industry?
Ironic that Dr. Wu (the plastic surgeon training other plastic surgeons) has a gigantic 3D mole on his chin, puffy eyes and a receding hair line.

What this video never asks is “whose beauty standards”. It tries to pass off blame on local “influencers” but doesn’t ask what influences the influencers. If you look at the type of surgery being requested, it’s double eyelid, it’s higher nose bridge, it’s sharper jawlines and facial features. Basically, trying to look more western because looking more western is looking beautiful. Maybe this was less of an issue when surgery was confined to the rich, but with the price of surgery dropping and becoming more accessible, now common everyday Chinese people can ponder how they can look more western too. And that is the core of the issue. It just goes to show the Asian races are still unconfident about the things that make them Asian and rather than trying to make such features as monolid, flat nose, or soft face be considered beautiful and desirable, they just adopt western beauty standards instead. And for Xi jingping, this is something worth cracking down on.
The video does not explain why the Chinese government is worried about plastic surgery. The video is about "Overview of Plastic Surgery in China".
Wanted to say the same.
It seems more like a promotion of plastic surgery in China. Lots of Chinese people actually go to South Korea because their standards are world-class and they've been in the industry for much longer than China has.
Yup. I thought it had something to do with the big brother and facial recognition. In fact they didn't say anything about the government being worried about it... it's so worried that they opened special zones for foreign doctors to come to?
thanks for saving my 15 minutes
This is how media attract viewer
I thought China wouldn't like plastic surgery because it would throw off their facial recognition software lol
Same here...lol..

Exactly what I thought
The next generation of children won’t look like their parents

@@anhvu5914 zing!
@@user-cu3bc4bn3z I thought Korean are trying to reach the stage that their children and their parents looks like exactly the same after their surgeries.
It's OK to be ordinary. This seems to have been lost to a lot. Soon everyone will really look alike.
the last sentence sounds like South Korea to me
And I think thats really too bad lol
We won't. Plastic surgery is still very expensive and those medical procedures are risky so not everyone will want to undergo any. Fillers yeah a lot of people might use those, but they can only go so far with how they modify your look.
Everyone getting plastic surgery will start to look ordinary because they all look the same.
This issue is the consequences of unchecked capitalism: they force you gently to consume stuff by making you addicted to certain standards. For example, why should I need BMW? Because the medias subconsciouly instruct me to buy BMW if I want to appear "strong man". I'm happy that President Xi has put a check on those capitalism behaviors. One day, in China, engineers, doctors, scientists... will be much more respected than the kinds of BTS and the likes...
My problem with this is that most people do it not for themselves, but to satisfy the majority's standard of beauty.
Yet they disguise it with sentences like "I did it for my own happiness". No society made u believe that u shouldn't be happy and satisfied with what you've got and now that u are approved by those universal standards, u can stress less about it.
There’s no such thing as “doing if for yourself”. Beauty standards would not exist without society and they differ from culture to culture for that reason. Nobody is making themselves prettier for themselves, because without others and the masses, “pretty” would not exist and “pretty” would not matter. You can’t choose to place yourself somewhere on the scale of beauty if the scale does not exist, and it was not created long before anybody living now was alive.
I think we need to learn to make more nuanced distinctions than just doing something “for you self” vs “to satisfy societal standards”. Some ppl want to fit their cultures idea of beauty for just for themselves, it’s not one or the other. If a culture had a long tradition of face tattoos and someone from that culture wanted to get those tattoos, it would feel really weird to just default to saying that’s a negative thing.
@@ataraxia7439 what about the age old Chinese beauty standard that required women to have tiny feet and hence make them fit into uncomfortable iron shoes? Someone might believe its a way to celebrate their culture no matter how negative the impacts are, biologically. Even tattoos can have negative impacts on health. So it's a matter of unbiased choice rather than what u r led to believe u can choose (subliminal messaging). Just a discussion tho, nthg against it. I love getting henna tattoos (mehendi) during festive seasons as its been an integral part of my culture and is considered attractive.
That was very obvious. I don't know why you even surprised. People do it for more social acceptance
Am I the only one who get extremely uncomfortable watching needles go near a face?
Yes you are
You have got company my friend. Im already uncomfortable around needles, evene when I was getting vaccinated I had to look away cause I did not like the idea of being probed by the needle. This is just bizzare body horror to me!
Nope. But people will forget that fear to get that fake, physical beauty.
I was going to comment the same thing
Don’t go for acupuncture then.
I’m so lucky to have Chinese parents who never held any beauty standards for my brothers and me. My mom was born and raised in China, but was in a rural area very south of China. My dad is Chinese but was raised in Vietnam, also in lived in a rural area. Because their families were too poor for a TV and lived far from the city, they were never exposed to all these beauty standards. My mom told me that it’s a blessing in disguise, because she never had to worry about how she looked because she had no one to compare to.
This needs more likes
U have a brother??? I thought they have one child policy
@@NishaSingh-fh6ey My mom was the only one who moved to America, so she had three of us! But my aunt had two children, and somehow avoided anything happening to them (probably because they weren’t from a major city). My uncle moved to Hong Kong and had two sons there.
What are your parents opinions about Chinas expansionist policies?
You're absolutely gorgeous though btw!! (Kinda counter intuitive to your point, but you're rly so pretty!!!)
This is more a look at Chinas Plastic surgery market it has almost nothing to do with China being afraid of it. Just spent 15 mins watching a beauty doc, thats not what I came for.
Whew! It pays to read the comments cus you saved me 15 minutes. Thanks!
It's a lie that most people value looks over actual virtues, but a harsh truth is that people evaluate looks _before_ actual virtues, and they always will.
Yes, unfortunately humans have eyes and our brains are wired to respond to symmetry. Very simple. Has nothing to do with society or influencers. It's biological.
@@zuzanazuscinova5209 it's very rare to find 100% symmetry even with fillers or other cosmetic procedures. Plastic surgery has to do more with the socio-economic situation according to that logic. Social media and technology is the biggest culprit and facial familiarity is the biggest driving force here. We want to replicate what we consume on a daily basis for eg. Following influencers known for their looks, and with increasing amount of ppl generating more incomes they'll obviously want to get it invested in smthg that appeals to them.
Also the fact that Orientals have more facial symmetry and display neoteny than other ethnic groups doesn't explain the rise of plastic surgeries increasingly in the East.
The reason that beauty is considered beautiful is because it is rare. If everyone is beautiful, will it still be considered beautiful? Maybe traits which were once considered to be unattractive will become more coveted because they will be unique. Now that everyone has big puffy lips, I find myself liking small delicate lips more now.
True, but there is also the golden ratio and humans liking symmetry
It’s actually defined by facial symmetry and having more average features lol
I disagree. I don't think uniqueness has much correlation with beauty. I'd argue unique features are actually uglier
It's partially about how easy it is to see all your features at a glance, so symmetry & basic structures are generally more beautiful. Then it's about which features are masculine or feminine.
Its impossible to know the full scope of the effects of the evolved ability to perceive beauty, but it likely has been evolved to select for superior mate selection. And mate selection might not be the same for everyone. Meaning some people might make a better match evolutionarily and some might make worse, this can potentially explain why men are attracted to "Exotic" women, they are subconsciously attracted to women who are genetically different from them, conversely if they were attracted to people who looked very similarly to them, they might accidentally do inbreeding, which would not be evolutionarily advantageous, so over time the trait of being attracted to people similar to you might slowly be sanded down by time and generations, while the trait of being attracted to different people may spread.
Almost all cats are considered beautiful. Beauty is not associated with rarity at all.
It's so strange that the more wealth a society has, the higher the false standard of beauty and painful procedures. One would think it would be opposite. Seems as though there's the eternal struggle with self judgment and criticism with a facade that there's actually the existence of perfection. There isn't. Strange...
These people are fake. Their beauty has a cost but no value. Facial beauty is just a commodity people buy to inflate their ego.
Not so strange, if you're struggling to feed yourself you probably don't have time to worry about whether your eyes are symmetrical or whether your cheeks could be a bit higher, your nose a little smaller, your ears pinned back etc etc.
It just proves how desirable symmetry is.
This is the country that subjected women to foot binding for hundreds of years. Painful procedures for the sake of appearance isn't exactly new for them, it's just making a return.
what? why would it be strange? It’d be stranger if poorer societies were spending money on plastic surgery.
I hope someday, a woman's worth is not primarily determined by their physical appearance. If they still want plastic surgery by then, by all means.
That's how it worked for the entire history of mankind lol. Looks tell you a lot about people
Keep hoping
Never gonna happen. The moment it does, it's because humans dissapeared from the face of the Earth. It's part of our nature, deal with it
This narrative suggest that women where affected when in fact men where pressured as well since it was about monolids, rhinoplasty etc.
Thats pure internalized racism, pure & simple, in the sense that western standards of beauty; self-worth...are internalised to the detriment of the own identity...
Its self-loathing....
So... what exactly is the government worried about?
It's literally only mentioned in the last 2 minutes...
Western media is using China as clickbait via fearmongering.
Unfortunately its not just in China or SouthKorea or US, this trend is becoming extremely popular all over the world mainly due to the beauty influencers. Here in Pakistan, it was a very unknown thing until around 2012. As the internet users exploded, so does the rise of beauty brands and influencers. Even men are opting for cosmetic procedures nowadays especially to get into modelling jobs. Local instagram feed is filled with such ads.

@@darkchurchhill this was never a thing, probably never will be for a long long time.
That’s tougher and takes longer to spot. Plus some people can hide psychological ugliness for a while until it’s too late.
I don't judge those that want to get it but I feel like my family and ancestors are beautiful and I look like them right? So even if I feel like crying sometimes or feel insecure I can always pick myself up with the fact that I have the face of my family...the ppl I love.
It's also quite a risk and I'd be curious to see the longtime effect of doing a lot of cosmetic surgery snd aggressive treatments.
I'm just hoping plastic surgeons that don't do crazy plastic surgeries that harm ppl are the majority.

Shouldn't everyone/society/govt be worried about plastic surgery addiction?
No. It’s not a political matter, who cares
@@newenglanddogmum7725 Everything is political
Why should they?
@Allen, Mackenzie And yet you cannot answer why?
The less funny thing is the fact the fillers are collected in the skin, they don't get disolved entirely and the more you put, the more prone to having bumps and uneven face you become. So getting fillers into the nose may result into something quite ridiculous in the long term. But I guess, people who are thinking about NOW are not really interested in it. Or maybe they are not told or are even lied to by the surgeons.
The one who suffers from that are their kids who will bring the looks of the parents and again those kids will have plastics surgery and the history will repeat. And other than that, Natural beauty was rare as for today.
No Chinese will just go to South Korea if a crackdown happen
Umm...

I visited to Korea. There are many Chinese and Japanese who have gone to plastic surgery on the street. China performs a lot of double eyelid surgery, high nose, and v-line surgery. Koreans and Japanese do a lot of double eyelid surgery. (The difference is Korea: thin double eyelids, Japan: large double eyelids)
This is sad Theyre erasing their ethnicity
Its their fault
Me: Didn't want to damage my body and refused to get tonsils removed even though I needed to
*China: Do you want to remove your entire face, or just the lower jaw, eyes and cheek bones?*
My guess for the Chinese gov's thought: Women are the main consumers of plastic surgery industry, and they will have a higher standard for their spouse if they could become more beautiful, especially in the aspect of personal wealth. So it is all about marriage and birth rate.
It's like S. Korea now where beauty seems to be most important. It's pretty sad how vain society has become :(
2:33 Dr. Woffles Wu - that must be the funniest name in history. I mean i red Dr. Waffles Wu.

modernity is a sad place
Chinese people are beautiful… why are you doing this to yourselves… happiness is within.
They want to look more European.
When will natural beauty with natural flaws be a craze....
I thought this would talk more about the normalization of European beauty standards in China a country with more of a homogenized population.

when you don't have a topic, just create one

Dr. Woffles Wu what a name. What a name.
All of my Iranian friends have gotten a nose job..
2 of my asian friends got double eyelid surgery.
But.. they became extremely confident afterwards, and it came out so naturally. I think its fine. Do what makes you happy.
But Muslims can not do a plastic surgeries 🤔
Remember when plastic surgery used to fix accidents injury?
Times have changed old man. People realise that you can ascend beyond the limitations of your genetics, of course they're gonna take it. You'll be left behind.
What a dystopian place
"People have got more bold" , boss you ain't seen nothing take a glance at the west 😂
Isn't it enormously scary? I really don't understand why people wanted to transform their appearance, in order to get approval from society and beauty is highly necessary for getting a job. ohhh really it's pretty much annoying 😰
There's reports there are entire cliques of social media influencers where they all pretend to be rich and get plastic surgery.
These cliques often involve professional golddiggers who prey on rich men.
To be honest, whenever I see East Asian ppl who enhance their natural features like dark almond shaped eyes and hair, subtle nose and usually slim figure I look at them with admiration as that is something unique to them. They can look very attractive in their own way which we for sure cant achieve or mimic and that makes them stand out. But whenever they go overboard copying the western beauty like dying hair yellow/orange, wearing colourful lenses and wearing a ton of make up, literally makes me cringe. To me it only signals lack of confidence. But I dont live in Chinese society so I dont know.
@IpilotAnEVA well since Europeans have colonized most of the world over the centuries, it's kind of inevitable.
@IpilotAnEVA and some people like to tan their skin to look more brown.. so what? Does people wanting to look White hurt your fragile feelings or something? White people are unique and beautiful, we add greatly to this brown and depressing world. We add colour to a brown and boring world.
dang my mom wouldn't tell me to get surgery even if i tried to force her. what's up with Chinese parents...
Deadly combination of One child policy and disposable income.
Not just chinese, parents give plastic surgery as a gift at 18th birthday in South Korea. Its just different standards, nothing wrong imo.
Western people are much more naturally beautiful than asian ones, so these oeptations are mostly redundant for western people. It is normal for parents to object to it. But we asians aren't as beautiful as you are.
@@COMPTROL you're either dangerously low on self confidence or just joking. I hope the latter.
@@ToneyCrimson its because of intense competition. In Asia children are also something to show off to others like a big house and a expensive luxury car, they are just higher in the scale of importance. Saying to your friend that your son became a doctor is THE ultimate flex.
What a sick and twisted reality
Vanity. It's a monster.
Meh. I would think its a tool to elevate oneself to more opportunities in life. Like, if your hot, people would talk to you more, and maybe tell you secrets about others and you use that to blackmail them if needed. But think what you want ig.
I'm that person that's sensitive to everything. Definitely couldn't get any of these fillers w/o having a reaction.
Intelligence and beauty get recognized first in human society.
That's fact and people shouldn't get mad about it.
Some people are born that way and others work hard to get it
The influencers are popular because of the people that like them. Without the people the influencer would be a nobody .
The blaming game needs to stop and people should become responsible for who they support.
"influencers" is a self fulfilling prophecy
Same goes for disabilities. People just prefer normal ones, hence disabled people should accept their fate to be treated less then them. (half sarcasm)
Influencers basically have fraudulent numbers of follower because of bots, and misrepresent their influence to advertisers.
@@boiwaif
I thought that was illegal already
Oh ishtar, ...look deeper, further and you'll understand that there is no standard of beauty, and standards have changed through the centuries, (and cultures) since the beginning of time. It's all just brainwashing, just like foot binding on Chinese women was the epitome of beauty in the 18th century, ...now it's viewed as very sad, painful and disfiguring. Society creates the false ideal of beauty for both men and women, and we're all trained to adopt that viewpoint from an early age with constant media messaging of what that standard "should" be. So then we spend money and aspire toward it. I hope that someday we can all wake up to understand that beauty is in the bravery of being true to oneself with complete self acceptance. We're all far more beautiful than we give ourselves credit.
in reality it's because they have to keep upgrading their biometric surveillance database 🤭
Lolz biometric does not change if someone changes thier face or grow bread
@@shiblee0670 it does if you do plastic surgery or LASIK. Biometric is including facial recognition, not just DNA or fingerprint.
Scar in Iris, new nose and jawline. it's called FRAPS. It's extensively researched by you guess it, CCP researchers. We aren't talking about growing beards here.
Unless you're doing it black market, it probably would be easy for the government to require that plastic surgeons and/or customers submit updated photos or face criminal charges
@@globaladdict not merely in black market, most Chinese did it in South Korea.
Reminds of the story of three Chinese women who had trouble getting back home after drastic plastic surgery in Korea. I wonder if they made it back and what other repercussions it had on their lives.
If those people happy and have money for plastic surgery, then do it. Why are we so judgemental at other people choice ?? They’re spend their money not yours so just keep your thinking to yourself
for me its a deeper issue if A LOT of people want to have eyelid surgery. we cant all look the same and its our differences that make each of us beautiful people- not having beauty standards dictated by others.

I've never been interested in plastic surgery but the idea that I might not be able to get it anymore made me momentarily want it.

@@Ceilvia Lol I don't actually want to get anything done. It's just the idea that I can't have something makes me go crazy for some reason.
Sad to think folks feel they’re not enough without getting a “little nip and tuck”. The same with skin whitening that’s viewed in some African and Asian countries as desirable whereas over in Western countries having a tanned appearance is seen as healthy.
This is a scary trend. We are the only species on this planet that can not be trusted with anything on our hands. It is so freaking taxing to be human. People create problems where they don’t exist. Can’t we just live a simple humble life just for once. All this money can be put to better use.

Does plastic surgery affect facial recognition?
If so, could be a remedy to all those surveillance cameras tracking faces in Shenzhen.
Wow! I just said the same thing!
Depend how much you change your facial structure,
usually the failed one does.
Your face will be deformed beyond recognition 🙈
What even more terrifying is that around 2-3 months after the covid mask mandate, all major facial recognition systems in China start to accurately recognize faces WITH MASKS ON. Apparently they can read your irises or some black magic. Think about that.
No. Interview with China's CCTV makers says they recognize by pattern in movement, so it's pointless to cover your face or change clothes. I think the same applies with this.
Yeah, they can do 'gait recognition' and see who you are by how you walk, among many data you don't even know exists...Also apparently in the near future your magnetic field signature will be able to be used to determine who you are, if it's not already being utilized
I shouldn't have giggled at "Waffles Who" (Woffles Wu) 😂
Sushruta is considered the "Father of Plastic Surgery." He lived in India sometime between 1000 and 800 BC, and is responsible for the advancement of medicine in ancient India.
They wanna looks White.
I'm surprised they didn't mention pop up PL stands like we would have a border walk shop. It's become so commonplace its standard to go get work done as a weekend activity

11:00 is when it started feeling cyberpunk
The truth is facial recognition wouldn’t work
People whose hate the idea of plastic surgery just jealous because they don’t have money for it. Plastic surgery is normal, it’s make people feel confident about their appearance. There are people out there have depression because of their appearance. Remember that !!
This!!
I would not want to go to a doctor that easily got their license, doctors spend years in school for a reason and take a very difficult test to earn their license in the US, a lot of foreigners wanting to practice medicine in the US cannot pass the exams, either way, I am happy with all of my imperfections and love myself as is lol
Why China's Government is Worried About Plastic Surgery: Because of facial recognition
How did you get that emoji?

@@jung.k i see
@@jung.k oh wow
something has gone terribly wrong when looks are a job requirement for even a normal office job. it's like you don't even have autonomy over your own body. Technically you do, but NO.
China is a competitive place where you literally have to show a picture of yourself for a job. It is common in Chinese cvs to show your face. So beauty can literally be the difference between life or death .
Can’t wait for being ordinary a trend so I don’t have to go under the knife
China has the world's most advanced facial recognition technology. It's possible that future patients can design their ideal looks on a computer and let robots do the plastic surgeries based on their desired looks.
South Korea should take notes!
Getting plastic surgery is like buying knock-off apparel.
Listen, not everyone is genetically blessed.
I think the government should restrict all these photoshop model pictures.
All this is going along with the tiny nuevo rich in China, wealth redistribution brings a small minority down whilst upgrading the majority who still live in poverty.
80000 unlicensed clinics ? 😮😮
tourists ? this is 2021 there are no tourists for the last two years and who knows for how long
What about South Korea though? I think the situation is way worse there
It is but the population is small
Most Asians are obsessed with plastic surgery. I bet 100% all new chinese celebs and new Korean celebs underwent plastic surgery. I think few Japanese celebs are still natural... Not all though
1.) South Korea 2.) Republic Of China 3.) United States
Is there anything the CPC *isn't* worried about? Their paranoia as of late is rivaling that of Stalin and Mao.
"Beauty has always been a commodity. What's changed nowadays is that you can buy some of that beauty."
Isn't one of the requirements before something is a commodity that you can buy and sell it?
you can buy it by mating tough
And you can kind of sell your beauty.
How much of this is teaching hating not only the visual representation of their ethnicity, but their ethnicity/culture itself..
More DNA exchanges with other cultures (mixed marriages) makes human beings more open minded. Loving the difference of others makes you more beautiful too. Societies with little gene exchanges disappeared.
