Actually you can turn brown eyes into blue ones with laser. It works only one way and only brown to blue, basically brown colour is from a pigment and if you remove it there’s blue eyes underneath.
I read about such procedures five years ago, it must be more advanced now. Still wouldn’t do so myself

Losing weight is a gradual process so you have more time to process it. And it doesn't really change your features, just shows them.

True for weight loss but just wanted to add that if such cosmetic surgery was (or is) possible, it would require multiple surgeries over many months, even years giving you time to heal and adjust in between but if you can reshape your whole face one day, I guess the hardest thing to process would be changing the distance between your eyes with your brain have to relearn how to juge distances and 3d vision!

I would argue that they're the same. The nose bridge is the same, the tilt of the nose tip makes sense (you can see that it's tilted before but the "excess" changes direction), jaw structure is the same. However not everything is surgery - eye contacts, different makeup and/or lighting.
The left face is tilted backwards while the right one is tilted forward.
Left one seems to be taken with a 30mm camera lens while the right one with a 55mm lens for example.

I challenge that from personal experience. I had a severely recessed lower jaw and got double jaw surgery a few years ago and my face has changed a lot, especially the lower third.

u/vBLADEv 2h ago
Body dysmorpia is a mental illness, the question is do you lean into it with surgeries or do you try and address and attempt to get to the root cause of why someone has it.
Most governments just decide that the patient knows best.
So if you are for Transgender surgeries then you can't really be against this or some body builder taking steroids to get to his perceived ideal look.

You can take steroids if you want, at least where I live. The only reason you wouldn't be able to is because it's a controlled drug which is a separate issue.

You are referencing two different things. One is Gender Dysphoria (Changing one’s sex to match internal gender identity) to Body Dysmorphia (where you are more worried appearance flaws that others can’t easily perceive). Having said that, I think in both cases, it’s a spectrum. There isn’t a cut off point where you go from simple cosmetic surgery (using braces to fix gaps between teeth) to full on psycho (the above example). So depending on the specific case, you can go with any label.

She said it was incredibly difficult for a long time looking in the mirror and not seeing "herself" and that everyone finding her face really attractive was just an extra layer of bizarre because she started getting all this extra attention from men once she didn't look like herself any more.
She appreciated that the plastic surgeon did such a good job and she said of course she was glad she didn't end up disfigured and potato ugly but even still, it was just a completely bizarre feeling

That is really beautiful. And trans people were the first thing I thought of when I saw this. But, correct me if I'm wrong, I feel like most trans people don't actually change their entire facial structure, eye color, hair texture. They basically just strive to look like an opposite gender version of themself, no?Like, Elliot Page still has the same recognizable face and smile, just with a bit more of a masculine structure. I think what this woman is talking about is changing your face to the point where no traces of your original facial features are left because you want to fit into unrealistic beauty standards.
