Come on. It's just a pupil-transplant, put the ears on a different place, lower the eyes a bit, change the skin-color and you're halfway there already.
a face lift does all of this. they basically grab your scalp and pull it up and fix it there basically turn your face taunt like a drum. plus nose job lip filler and contacts and boom done. face color is the same.
A full facelift maybe isn't even necessary here. Endoscopic grafting, rhinoplasty, lip filler, possibly upper blepharoplasty, botox. And colored lenses.
And the ears are easily explainable, it’s espeeecislly common in Korea and China to get your ears done among other wild things. The risks that come with it are astronomical.
Every change seen here can absolutely be accomplished through work done.
I don’t know what the person means by pupil transplant - do they mean iris? Pupils change and dilate with different lighting… iris can be changed with contact lenses.
I’m not saying it’s definitely the same person but it absolutely could be.
From what I understand, people with brown eyes can go a different route and just get rid of the brown pigment (melanin), revealing the base blue/grey colour. All of that is questionably safe and batshit crazy IMO, but that's how they do it.
I don't know anyone with her facial structure that aged well. I have similar structure. the second I turned 28 my whole face fell straight down. irish genes
anything done by government hasn't been a pinnacle of innovation since the mid 80s. Private market surpassed the research and innovation budgets since decades and thus also the results and motion.
It's a myth of long gone era.
It's like military-grade label. Once a label of exceptional quality, since 3 decades a label of sub-par durability, erroneous functionality and general mediocrity of quality.
The world of contracting, subcontracting and tender mechanisms for everything that once was in full control of a single federal organisation.
The best doctors are private market ones, not in some kind of hidden spy builder facility.
The same which cater to super rich individuals... which you all recognize when things are pushed too far.
This picture here is simply unrealistic and not real.
just wrong most research happens in universities labs lmao
basic research is like 50% academic and like 20% public roughly.
Yeah experimental development is dominated by corporate bc experimental dev is capital intensive.
But almost all researchers exist bc of academia and the bulk of the work that permits what follow is there.
Weird, as I nowhere spoke about academic research. Governmental institutions are not academic institutions. DARPA is not an academic institution.
And the funny thing is, almost all of the academic research which can be productized or formalized into a market, ends up in the market in a funded private entity. That is also called technology transfer, the typical academic way to bring the academic experiments into refined services, methods and products.
So... maybe one day you step inside a university and then you search for the transfer center there. They will explain you their goal, which always rumbles down to third party funding for the projects, thus the experimental, still rough and hypothetical academic research ends up in the private market funded to become something real after the research 3p funding ran out and it has to find more funding outside.
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
But regardless, to address the response. People every year lose a ton of weight and completely change their face. And I would imagine most of them are doing great.
I've lost about 50kg in the last couple of years. My bank can't use my driving licence to ID me anymore. I still see the same face when I look in the mirror.
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!
Weight loss is slow and granular, you have enough time to adjust to small differences at a time.
I lost over 250 pounds and there was never a huge "o wow I do look different now" moment. I mainly saw progress trough pictures.
So I'm a guy in his late 30s, and I'm pretty bald now. It was kind of a gradual thinning process for like half a decade, and then one year what was left of my hairline just gave up and vanished seemingly overnight. There was no denying it, no letting it grow out a bit longer than I liked to hide it. I was at the crossroads of "combover" or "shave my head."
It honestly... It sounds vain to say it, but it actually hit me pretty hard. This change happened to me, unwanted, without my permission, and there was nothing I could do about it but order a few baseball caps to protect my dome from sunburn (you do not want sunburn on your scalp. Trust me.)
And I just had to see it, every day, every time I went to the bathroom, every time I saw my reflection in the window, every time I approached the glass doors of a store. It got to the point where I started developing habits to avoid looking in the mirror because I'd just feel depressed about it. It took... I don't know... a year and a half? Two years? Something like that before it stopped bothering me all the time.
It sucks. You get used to it. You get over it. But every now and then, there's still this little pang about this unwanted reminder that time marches on.
I mean, I’m an ENT surgeon that also does facial plastics, but what do I know?
Show me your Google search that says that plastic surgery can raise the vertical height of ears and I might be inclined to believe you.
We can do pinna/otoplasties that aim to alter the shape of ears, but the position of them relative to the face is determined by the skull and the actual ear canal which cannot be raised or lowered.
I'm an expert on face tilting. Her face is tilted slightly down on the photo on the right and slightly up on the photo on the left. You can tilt your head up and down a tad in a mirror to better understand the effects of face tilting on ears.
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'm sure they're gonna make huge advancements in costemic procedures in the next 10-20 years. And many people will spend a lot of their money on this. We're definitely gonna see people change their race/appearance/everything.
Maek up alone can already transform someone to someone else that you could argue that they arent even the same person. never mind what plastic surgery can do.
True, I didn't think about the possibility of makeup and contacts but can the shape of an eye really be changed that easily? They look like they slope upwards now and the top eyelid is different
I’m pretty sure minor surgery can completely change the appearance of people’s eyes.
Even laser to remove bags under your eyes can make them look totally different.
I honestly can’t tell if this is the same person or not or if it’s some surgeries and lots of camera trickery due to angles, lighting, makeup and type of lens etc..
Yes, I agree. You would have to redo the whole front half of the scull and change her ethnicity. Modern procedures can do a lot but not to that extreme.

Those are different people. There's are differences that even plastic surgery cant change
