Lil Kim Plastic Surgeries - Surgeon Reacts

[@Skysthelimit212]

Kim was beautiful, shame on everyone that made her feel like she wasn't pretty enough or good enough. She would've aged BEAUTIFULLY without any surgery

[@amouryourskin4691]

That's true. And in my opinion she should have stopped with the surgery in 2003, She was still a natural beauty then!

[@Skysthelimit212]

@@comadoof imagine if you were a celebrity and getting called ugly constantly, you are not famous and will most likely not encounter the same levels of pressure. Words hurt. Yes she booked those appointments but self esteem is a thing and some people purposely chip away at that. I'm sure you're self conscious about something or have been and if someone picked on your appearance over and over and strangers did the same you would feel differently.

Lil Kim had faced some trauma in her early life stemming from her dad and abusive relationships with men. She had her nose broken several times during an abusive relationship with one of her boyfriends and I think that may have started her on the path of changing the way she looked drastically. And there wasn't anything wrong with the way she looked outwardly, but inside was the issue. She needed to fix her broken ness from the inside.

Yes, I had to stop my son and mom from calling my daughter fat. They would argue like siblings do. I heard him call her fat once. I told him not to ever let me hear him say that again. I told him that he didn't know what other people outside our house were saying to her, and she shouldn't have to come home and be told the same thing. He never said it again. My mom used to say it when we were shopping. Oh, you are too fat for those, or you are too big to be wearing that. I had to correct her a couple times because she is older and really didn't mean any harm. I had to break it down to her, what she was doing to her self eestem. She finally got it. I had to build my daughter's self-confidence up. She wasn't fat or ugly. She just matured earlier than her classmates and tall for her age. She has long beautiful hair still to this day. I had to teach her a lot of the hate that could stem from jealousy.

I'll tell you about my experience with plastic surgery. When I was in my late 40s, my ophthalmologist recommended I have a blepharoplasty to deal with significant peripheral vision loss due to the aging process that consisted of my forehead sliding down my skull (my father had the same surgery due to his similarly deep-set eyes). A plastic surgeon recommended that I have a brow lift, then a bleph because just a bleph would pull my eyebrows lower and it was my eyebrows that were the problem. Had all this done and at the last minute asked to have the bags under my eyes removed. Insurance covered the significant expense (except for the under-eye bags). I very much liked the improvements to my vision and appearance but then thought the upper half of my face looked so much better than the lower half. Got a traditional facelift and a chin implant. Loved these results. But then found myself wanting to do more. I really, really wanted to do more. This is what I believe happens to so-called plastic surgery addicts. I never did any more surgery work done; I think if I had given to my addiction I would now look like some version of Ms. Wildenstein.

[@teath_]

Its amazing that you recognized the want to do more, the budding of an addiction and stopped before your health and appearance took a toll. More clients should think like this! Yes- there is a risk for getting addicted due to the search for "perfection"(everyone is so unique, its so sad to see people get rid of their uniqueness and their natural features for vanity), but perfection doesnt exist! Just strive to be you.
