I'll always say "what will it be like when you start to age" some of these celebs don't even look human.

      Unfortunately with bbl doesn't matter which top clinic you go to there's a reason bbl has the highest fatality rate of all procedures. In the UK where these girls are from bbl is actually banned because of the high fatality rate. Its a risky procedure doesn't matter how much you pay or which top clinic, there's a high possibility it may not work. Unfortunately just because people see a lot of girls with it on instagram they think its easy but not a lot of these insta baddies are honest to talk about complications. Its a lottery with your life and Unfortunately a lot people go for it.

Doctors will also send dead patients to ICU on breathing machines or medicine that keeps them “ alive” just enough to get to the ICU where they then will say they died due to post operative complications.

    More Than a Body: Seeing as God Sees
    By Lexie Kite, Ph.D. and Lindsay Kite, Ph.D.
    A negative body image may be holding you back, but you have the power to change the lens you see yourself through.
    "After years of struggling, things changed. We even started swimming again. But it wasn’t dieting or makeovers that did the trick-it was learning how our skewed views of our bodies had held us back in every way. Our research has showed us that developing positive body image-or feeling good about your body from the inside, not just how it looks-is a key to health, happiness, and seeing ourselves as God sees us. Our culture tends to objectify both women’s and men’s bodies. It teaches us to see people as bodies (or objects) first and people second, which leads us to judge and value people by how they look. This leads to negative body image because we are taught that our bodies are the most important things about us and that we need to "fix our flaws" in order to be happy.
    So many of us compare ourselves to social media influencers and celebrities who fit all of today’s ideals. What we don’t see is all the digital editing, styling, trainers, and cosmetic surgery that often goes into getting that look. …The objectifying messages in our culture tell us to think of our own bodies from an outside perspective, as though we were looking in at ourselves. This is called self-objectification. Studies show that when girls are self-conscious of their looks, they don’t do as well on math, reading, or physical fitness tests. …Self-objectification is at the root of negative body image because it puts all the focus on how our bodies look rather than how we feel or what we can do. It prevents us from seeing ourselves as God sees us: as children of our Heavenly Parents with inherent, unchangeable value.
    In our research, we found that a key to improving body image is what’s called "body image resilience.” Being resilient means being able to bounce back from difficult experiences. Our objectifying culture might create trials and burdens for us, but with body image resilience, those trials can be opportunities to grow and improve the ways we cope. We can become more knowledgeable and compassionate and feel better about our bodies because of how we respond to that pain, not in spite of it. To develop body image resilience, we first need to recognize and reflect on the ways distorted messages about bodies have shaped our views of ourselves and others. We can then practice new strategies to grow in response to those views and painful experiences. One of those strategies is to understand our divine identities as children of loving Heavenly Parents.
    Let’s start with recognizing and reflecting on the distorted ways we are tempted to think about bodies. How many times have you seen yourself in a picture or video taken by you or someone else? Think of the many lenses through which you might be watching yourself grow up: the lenses of family and friends’ cameras, your own cellphones, filters, even beauty-enhancing apps.
    The Apostle Paul taught, "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."
    "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." - 1 Corinthians 13:12
    But Paul’s words could imply that we could one day see ourselves as God sees us. We are known to God and can learn more of who we really are through that loving lens. So how do we clean our lens so we see more like God does? Here are four things you can do.
    4 Tips to Clean Your Lens
    1. See your body as an instrument, not an ornament. Think of your body as a tool for experiencing life the way God intends, not just something to be looked at. Focus on how you feel and what you can do.
    2. Try a media cleanse or fast. Try taking a break from media, and then take inventory of what you’re viewing when you go back. Do the images you see or the accounts you follow spark your body anxiety or shame? Do they objectify people? If so, you have the power to unfollow, unsubscribe, and fill your feed with goodness.
    3. Take responsibility for your own thoughts and actions. Regardless of what anyone else wears or does, you can decide to view them as a person, not an object. Respect others’ agency to make choices that are different from yours and treat them with dignity.
    4. Join forces with others to see more and be more. Ask friends and family to join you in rejecting objectifying media and conversation. Speak up about the importance of seeing ourselves and others as more than a body, and back it up by how you talk about yourself and others.
    Our Heavenly Parents want you to be happy and understand your value, power, and potential in this world. The Holy Ghost can help us to "see things as they really are", not through distorted lenses. You can contribute so much to this world that is in need of you-not just a pretty vision of you, but all of you-regardless of your physical ability or appearance. We are all more than a body, and when we can see more in ourselves and others, we can be more."

    To everyone saying just love your body shape I’d like to say : you all say this as if it’s something easy to do. But then unknowingly support distorted body types. A small waist and a big butt is the social standard and it rarely comes naturally. Many men and women make fun of body types that don’t fit that standard ... so saying love yourself to a person who understands what society wants isn’t really doing anything. I’m not necessarily in support of unnecessary surgery but I understand it. The only thing that will make it easier to allow people to love their body’s is to make everybody type socially acceptable saying love yourself when society encourages people to do these things to themselves bc of the high social standards we have set is putting a bandaid on the issue and not addressing why people want to change themselves in the first place!

If that were true there would not be 1 body type everyone is currently obsessed with... loving yourself will always be enough for you but according to the rest of society's standards it wont be enough for them. Because their standards are unrealistic. so i say again the standards must also change. If they don't saying love yourself to someone faced with the social reality we live in absolutely does nothing for them but slap a bandaid on the problem! real change starts with what we promote as a society.

    This is so sad. Young girls have been feed this image of beauty that makes them feel less than if they don’t conform to it which in turn makes them think surgery is the solution this unscrupulous “doctor” butchers feed off of this like vultures.

    Well all I can say is I'm glad I'm in my fifties, the world had gone mad. I look back to my youth where everyone was so natural and genuine, now half the young people are full of plastic, filler or silicone, and a lot of the ones that are not, have a desire to join the madness....sad.

    Please dig dig dig and do your OWN research. Don’t just trust a pretty face online. Although the influencers experience was great, doesn’t mean yours will be. Sometimes companies give influencers a perfect experience just so they can get the free promotion.
