Social Media dysmorphia - the truth of fillers, botox, and the beauty standard

from Taboo on the Bus · host Whatzaraloves

Has the accessability and normalisation of aesthetic procedures and fillers warped our ability to accept our natural features? I realised that I am simply tolerating some of my insecurities with the idea that I will eventually get procedures and fillers to ‘fix’ it, and is this becoming common culture within society? Has the accessibility of fillers and exposure to such content begun to normalise changing ourselves instead of accepting? Sit down with me in the long-form version of Taboo on the Bus to discuss: how accessible and normalised aesthetic procedures have become the every-changing, consistently unattainable beauty-standard  how marketers and advertisers influence and sell us insecurities How social media makes us desire aesthetic procedures The racial cherry-picking within western beauty standards Social media dysmorphia  Again, I will clarify that I do not disasgree with aesthetic procedures/fillers. I personally would like them, but what I don’t agree with is how normalised, accessible, and promoted they are. All of my love, Zara @whatzaraloves // Taboo on the Bus
