About

Rhinoplasty, Lip Filler, Cheek Implants, Chin Implant, Jaw Shave, continued Brow Bone Reduction, Buccal Fat Removal, Botox and Eye Lift, is a catchphrase and short-form copypasta about plastic surgery that labels parody before-and-after photos of celebrities, characters and memes to portray an unfair transformation that accounts for their appearance.
