I can’t wait for aesthetic fillers, Botox, and plastic surgery to not be trendy anymore

Of course, what I'm saying is that if people are going to these great lengths to modify their bodies to hide these imperfections, then there's a chance that they're experiencing some sort of body dysmorphia, which is the same as someone who starves themselves because they think they're too fat, or who takes steroids to make their muscles bigger, or something like that.

These are all people that deserve compassion and understanding. Telling someone who's panicking because their body is showing natural age they should just "age gracefully" is pretty heartless, imo, if you wouldn't give similar oversimplified advice to someone who's bulimic, or someone who's depressed.
