FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN LOH#177

in voilk •  4 months ago

    The thought of undergoing cosmetic surgery for any part of my body hadn't crossed my mind before. I am not a fan of cosmetic surgery solely to enhance beauty, I believe it is necessary in cases like correcting deformities. However, seeing this topic I kept thinking if there was anything about my body that I felt concerned about and would consider changing.

    The only idea that came to mind was a surgery that would make my smile beautiful. I get to admire people smiling so much and I want to have a nice smile that can uplift and comfort others. My mom mentioned that I hardly smiled while growing up; I always wore a serious expression. Maybe that's why smiling doesn't come naturally to me or maybe because of my broken teeth. Instead of smiling with teeth showing I prefer laughing, I feel my smile is creepy sometimes 😄

    Having surgery to make my smile captivating would require a highly experienced surgeon. I am concerned about the difference between expectations and outcomes ( what I ordered versus what I got). The rate at which people undergo surgery to enhance their beauty and the outcome looking very scary with complications is high. I wouldn't want to damage my face to get a pretty smile and end up with a scary appearance.

    A lot of things in my face might be altered for it to happen I wouldn't want to go through the pain. I had to shake off those thoughts because I am someone who doesn't handle pain well. A little pain can be unbearable and also thought of not being able to function well during my recovery period, will be a disaster for me. I also fear what might happen in the future, so enhancing my appearance is not something I will consider.

    Moreover, I get compliments on my smile in photos and physically, they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to me, it looks weird. Despite all these, I don't fail to flaunt my incomplete teeth when smiling.
