A lot of "insecurity" and "marketing" comments in here.

In the world where we don't shoot from the hip, there are different factors for different things.

For example, Covid, and the mass use of video calls and TikTok that came with it, brought about the "flat features" phenomenon from cameras, which drove a huge increase in lip fillers and other botox to help people stand out.

But things like Ozempic are very different, as they are used much more by those who can truly benefit from them to reduce other medical issues that come with weight.

And to be clear, none of these things are bad. For many they are not needed (in the opinions of others, often myself, too), but that does not make them bad.
