CaptionPlastic surgery has changed dramatically since the age of paraffin fillers and facelifts that left expressions frozen. In fact, now you can go get non-surgical nose jobs during your lunch break and head right back to work. With the help of Elizabeth Haiken, the author of Venus Envy: A History of Cosmetic Surgery, we took a look back at some of the very first nips and tucks in the US.Getty ImagesThe instant gratification and hundreds of beautiful, seemingly identical faces we’ve seen since Instagram’s launch in October 2010 brought forth a surge of lip plumpers and butt implants. Butt augmentations increased in popularity by 28 percent from 2006 to 2015, mostly thanks to Kim Kardashian’s voluptuous figure. Lip implants and injectables have also risen steadily each year, with a 5 percent increase between 2017 and 2018, largely because of Kim’s little sister, Kylie Jenner. The latest trend in aesthetic procedures? Brow lifts, to achieve the narrow, lifted eye look shared by models Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, another of Kim’s little sisters. Some young women are achieving a DIY version of the look with the #FoxEyeChallenge, which has garnered 7.6 million views on TikTok in a single week in February 2020. In the challenge, teens shave off the last quarter of the brow (the part that slopes down toward the outer eye) and draw a new tail straight across. It’s not permanent, but it is much more affordable.
