Man, you won’t believe the day I had. So, I’ve been feeling a bit down about how I look, right? And it’s not just me—I’ve noticed a ton of folks from Vietnam hitting up these plastic surgery spots. Noses, eyes, you name it. I’m not against it, but sometimes, it just doesn’t look right, you know?
Then, I stumbled upon this news piece from Kuala Lumpur. It was talking about how some people in Vietnam were getting roasted for their looks, so they turned to plastic surgery. And get this—some of them ended up feeling even worse afterward! Can you imagine?
So, I started digging around a bit more. Turns out, there’s this doctor, Tom Cuong Nguyen, an Australian-born Vietnamese guy, who works at some clinic in Saigon. He’s all about that perfect skin. Apparently, cosmetic surgery has become a big thing among the younger crowd in Vietnam, thanks in part to him.
And here’s where it gets wild. I read that some plastic surgeons are using these old beliefs as a way to sell their services. They’re out here saying stuff like, “Get a straight nose for good luck!” It’s like a marketing gimmick or something. I mean I search more information about this, it has advertisements about this saying, like “straight nose for fortune”, oh, man.
- First, I just fell down this rabbit hole of articles and stories about people’s experiences.
- Then, I was watching these videos of transformations, and it’s just mind-blowing how much someone can change their appearance.
- Finally, I ended up on these forums where people were sharing their before-and-after pics. Some looked great, but others, not so much.
My Crazy Day Researching Vietnamese Plastic Surgery
So yeah, that was my day. It started with me just feeling a bit insecure, and it turned into this whole exploration of the plastic surgery scene in Vietnam. Crazy, right?
Honestly, it made me think a lot about beauty standards and how they mess with people’s heads. Like, why do we feel the need to change ourselves to fit some mold? Anyway, it was definitely an eye-opening experience. No pun intended, haha.
What a day it is! I have to say that it is so interesting. I will keep researching on this topic.
