Brazilian man gets plastic surgery to look Korean

[allegsiseu.livejournal.com]

This Brazilian man has gone under the knife multiple times in order to look more East Asian. Do you think he succeeded?

Though his silicone facial implants and lip surgery are nothing unusual in Brazil, the 25 year old has gone a step farther to transform himself by making alterations to his eyes.

Xiahn, who asked not to be fully named to protect his family from Internet scrutiny, underwent 10 surgical procedures on his eyes, along with other less-invasive procedures, which cost him a total of $3,100. He also began wearing contact lenses to change his eye color.




Originally blue-eyed with blonde hair, he became interested in having plastic surgery after spending time as an exchange student in Korea. He was inspired by how common plastic surgery was there.

“Koreans have many surgeries to modify the shape of their eyes and become more like Westerners. It was easy to tell when one of them has done it, walking on the street wearing sunglasses and a surgical mask,” he said. Xiahn is happy with his results, stating, “I have no regrets, and I don’t intend to have any more procedures."

yeah because they are the only ones with double eyelids

disgusting

[cwazy-weiven.livejournal.com]

Seriously. Talk about generalizing. I live in Malaysia and the majority of Asians here have double eyelids.

That is just downright disturbing.

Did he use Lee Junki as inspiration for those eyes?

[winged-monster.livejournal.com]

He has super prominent brow bones. How did they cover them up?

"Koreans have many surgeries to modify the shape of their eyes and become more like Westerners."

I get so, so, SO annoyed every time I read or hear this. It is not wrong to say that many Asians admire the facial structure of Westerners (or rather, Caucasians, usually). Things like high nose bridges, deep set eyes, etc. The reason many of us want to modify our facial features is not to look like Caucasians, but rather, it is because we simply think a person would look better with large eyes, a contoured face, a high nose bridge, a sharp nose, etc.

Most of us are not trying to look "Westernized," thank you. The eye thing, yeah, ancient Chinese history already deemed big, bright eyes as desirable. Even without the need to refer to Caucasians.

YES. The worst part is that sometimes I've come across people who actually believe that asians can't have double eyelids like wow goodbye

[honeyfunnybunny.livejournal.com]

I don't even know what to say... I mean I'm glad he's happy with the results and all, but wow the other pictures I've seen damn..

I wonder how they managed to make his eyes look like that?

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

He was so hot, why he did that to his face?

[mspopstar.livejournal.com]

He doesn't look human anymore, sorry.

[toshi830.livejournal.com]

I mean if he's happy with himself cool but it doesn't mean I don't think it looks creepy.

[6rystalis.livejournal.com]

Somehow...what I got from this is: $3100 sounds pretty cheap? ^^:

[devilseoul.livejournal.com]

yeah all I'm thinking is "a simple nose job must be $50"

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

how did he change his double eyelid into single eyelid? I'm actually quite curious about that.

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

maybe injections of fat to plump out the crease? i want to know too.
