REPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA - SOME EVILS PERSISTING IN INDIA AND AROUND THE WORLD
Can one picture shake up your perspective? A few months ago a trend set out, the Kendall Jenner
workout routine trend. It was fired by a picture of supermodel and socialite Kendall Jenner posted
on her Instagram, a bikini clad Kendall looked stunning as a cameraman snapped a picture of her
taking a mirror selfie. Kendall Jenner had earlier mentioned on Elle magazine that her favourite
workout routine was an 11 minute regime including a number of intricate planks. So as the story
goes, it became an internet sensation! Millions of women started following this workout to get the
perfect body goals body. Now a simply exercising a model’s work routine is an individual’s personal
choice and is out of bounds to anyone’s judgement. But it spirals into toxicity when people are
misguided in the pretense that what you see on social media is exactly how it looks like in reality and
if you do the workout and if you do the diet then voila! You will get that perfect skinny thick body.
Social media is an extremely deceptive and dangerous place. What you see might not be the
complete truth. The fact most people living in our society are unaware of the intense work
that is done to the perfect end picture seen a person’s Instagram post. With the rise of the
Kardashians often described as the royal family of America beauty standards hit an all-time
high. The perfect body goals of our time is a cinched in waist, big bum and breasts, high
cheekbones, cat eyes, small thin nose, full lips, flat stomach, prominent shoulders and collar
bones, absent cellulite anywhere and a thigh gap. For men it a highly fit’ I run fifty kilometers
a day’ buff abs, arms and legs. Social media heightens our human instinct of comparison
with others to a place where most of feel insecure of our natural bodies and desire the
perfect, flawless cellulite less hour glass figure on the screen. Then we need further
reassurance from outside to feel a sense of self-worth. What the general community fails to
see is that a large amount of plastic surgery and Photoshop has crept into every photo that
we see and nothing is an accurate representation of reality. The most famous plastic surgery
procedure upvoted by social media right now is the Brazilian Butt Lift (in short a BBL). This is
the procedure where they make incisions on your body to liposuck fat from areas like the
hip, stomach and thigh and inject them onto the bum to make it fuller and round. This
surgery is actually the most deadly surgery performed in the US today and has a mortality
rate of 1 in 3000. Fifteen women have died in South Florida alone in 3 years after taking a
BBL. Its safety concerns are so high that the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons
(BAAPS) voted on whether to completely ban the procedure in the UK. The BAAPS finally
decided to postpone making a final decision and will be assessing final information and
completing formal inquiry regarding a BBL’s safety. Rhinoplasty and lip fillers are other
plastic surgeries that society caught onto due to the influence of social media. Rhinoplasty is
done to change the shape of your nose giving it a slimmer look with a bubble tip at the end.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, nearly 220,000 rhinoplasties are
performed yearly, making this the most common facial plastic surgery procedure. Lip fillers
are done to make your lips look plumber; lip filler injections in India cost about 25,000
rupees. Cheek augmentation (insertion of fillers into the cheek to make them more defined,
cost rupees 50,000 in India), eyebrow lift to raise your face and reduce wrinkles and fine
lines, cheek liposuction for contouring the countenance.
