What does the perfect woman or man look like? Scarlett Johansson? Halle Berry? Matthew McConaughey? George Clooney? People argue over what looks good and what doesn’t all the time. What’s considered beautiful in Sacramento might not be considered so hot by New Jersey housewife standards. And our friends overseas sometimes have different ideas altogether. Let’s take a journey and see what people in other parts of the world are doing to make themselves match their own ideals of beauty.
In Japan, crooked teeth are considered by some to be more attractive than straight teeth. Meanwhile, Americans usually go to great lengths to avoid such a look.
A rich, bronze tan is considered beautiful in the U.S., but in many parts of Asia, skin color can indicate one’s station in life and a dark tan can mean you’re a farmer, not a star. Sun umbrellas are sometimes used to help maintain perfect, pearly white skin. Laser removal of freckles and moles is common. Double eyelid surgery, mandible surgery and lengthening the nose with rhinoplasty are all common procedures. Botox is also very popular; many women want a rounder forehead.
Some Asian women have fat injected around the eyes to help make their face appear less flat. Black contact lenses are a trend in some circles, and the combination of ivory skin, jet black hair, and dark eyes is considered by some to be striking and beautiful.
There is among some cosmetic surgeons talk of a “global nose,” the ever-changing ideal nose in the eyes of our collective worldwide population. In India, there is a trend toward rhinoplasty that creates smaller nostrils and a pointier tip for a more refined look.
It is also becoming increasingly popular for Indians to partner up when making the decision to get cosmetic surgery. Two friends, mother and daughter or even newly-weds may get cosmetic surgery together, providing one another support and morale.
One thing is certain. Plastic surgery in Sacramento and in the rest of the world is becoming a more and more popular way to reach toward becoming an ideal beauty.
