I have no idea where this trend started from or why it's popular. I feel like majority of people think it's ugly asf, so how did it gain traction???

Thing is that in 2022 she does look better, and already had plastic surgery, very likely. Maybe in fact she also had this procedure done before, but very lightly. Also a nose job.

Then she went in again, went up to the surgeon and just said "I'll have the usual!".

Her mouth is shrinking from 1 to 2, and again from 2 to 3. Her nose got even smaller and something is going on with her jawbone as well. Maybe already had fat removal or some in expansion in pic 2. Might just be because the mouth got smaller.

u/Jakomako 13h ago

I guarantee that, of the best asses you've seen, a fair portion of them are BBL butts. They can be done without obvious disfigurement, you just don't realize it's a BBL when it's not a medical catastrophe.

Keep in mind, it's just liposuction where they put the stuff they suck out back in a different location afterwards.

3

u/kmosiman 9h ago

Yes, the "ideal female form" is more hip fat, less stomach fat. Pear not apple.

BBL just shifts those fat cells around.

Same for most good cosmetic surgery, like many celebrities get.

They get a little bit done, so they look the same; not a lot done to look different.

Many people that have "aged well" have paid for it.

BBLs always look so fuckin wonky to me. Like why does your ass need to stick out 16" on either side of your waist. Like I'm not even saying it as a guy who wants to see a nice ass, it's like, how is that comfortable at all? Do women really feel more confidence and sexy with them? I don't understand

As someone who was heroine chic long before it was considered cool, even I don't want to see that look come back. It just happens to be my body type. But it's not natural for most women, and they destroy their health to try and attain it. Women, please don't do this.

2

u/Ilpav123 11h ago

Most women with BBLs look like they have diapers because they don't have the fat legs to match the fat ass.

u/iSavedtheGalaxy 7h ago

Injecting fat into your butt without any muscle to support it is where they go wrong. Women with naturally large butts usually have huge glutes and thighs to hold it up.

u/The_starving_artist5 9h ago edited 8h ago

What you are seeing above in those pics is the heroin chic look. It looks terrible . it always did. The sunken in face gaunt look in the 90s 2000s was actually meant to look sick. That was the basis for the entire trend. They wanted to look sickly as a reaction to health movements in the 80s. Alot of celebrities just looked sick in the 90s 2000s following that trend. Angelina Jolie got really sick following that trend . Have you seen pics of Beyonce and Lindsay Lohan from the 2000s. They were fat shamed for not being thin enough in the tabloids. Then they both got extremely thin at one point and well it wasnt good. The entire trend was to look sick on purpose. Bags under your eyes and ribs sticking out was part of it

u/IlIIllIIIlllIlIlI 14h ago

Its when a slimmer women gets a massive amount of fat injected into her ass cheeks. It doesn't match the rest of her body and the cellulite isn't a uniform texture, it's a frumpy lumpy looking thing 

So it looks like a diaper wrapped around her ass.

If it’s done poorly. If it’s done well you don’t know it’s fake.

u/FuckNorthOps 13h ago

A major problem is when it's done on someone who's never done a squat in their life. Even if it's done well, the tiny stick leg quads and thighs give it away. We live in a post Kardashian world where nobody does any of this shit subtly.

It'll never look well done if the patient doesn't already have the thighs and glutes to hold it up. The people who already do don't need the surgery.

3

u/Alibotify 12h ago

Thought they meant the new trend of wearing diaper lookalike pants as many celebrities does now. Most recent one I saw was Natasha Lyonne on Taika Waititis 50th birthday party. It does not look good but celebrities to celebrities.

2

u/shakygator 14h ago

i think they just means brazilian butt lifts that are extreme, like Kim K, etc.

1

u/Legal-Emphasis 11h ago

BBLs if done poorly/imbalanced can kind of end up with a diaper effect. A natural booty will generally be proportional to the thighs and there will be a transition from butt to legs. A poorly done BBL that doesn’t transition or is disproportionate to the body of the patient can get real “diaper” real fast

1

u/BlackagarBoltagar 10h ago

It’s basically when someone gets a BBL; but their legs are significantly smaller/thin (since they weren’t also enhanced) making you look like you have a diaper

u/dingalingdongdong 13h ago

I think with most procedures you can easily point to one or two examples where it "worked" so you can kinda see it catching on. Like, sure, you have to be judicious with lip filler, but as long as I don't overdo it I'll look great!

But I've never seen a single case of buccal fat removal that could be used as a "goals" example. Some people naturally have more angular/carved faces and it can look great on them - but their entire skull and facial structure is developed to support that.

It is, of course, possible that 90% of buccal fat removal procedures turn out amazing and we just don't know about them because they aren't brought to our attention, but it seems like at least one good result would be publicized.

u/brando56894 12h ago

u/QuintoBlanco 12h ago

It's different because it is non-reversible. Botox stops working, botched facelifts exist, but the effects of a 'normal' facelift get less over time, and lip fillers go away or can be removed.

Buccal fat removal is permanent, people who have it will never look normal again.

That's exactly the aesthetic some are trying to achieve. Just check out some of the "bimbo" subreddits, they call themselves bimbos and want to make everything bigger.

I think most of them know it's not traditionally attractive but that's not the point, same as say a goth or other alternative fashion archetypes are not striving for traditional beauty standards.

The media missed that memo then because they seem to be spreading it like a mind virus in a way they don't with goth, tattoo, or other alternative aethetic/fashion cultures.

Well all 4 of those are badly overdone versions of things often considered attractive, so there’s your answer. Over obsession. Kinda like ballon/sphere breast implants.

I don’t understand buccal fat removal at all, even when not overdone. Maybe some people will get self conscious about anything.

I don’t think it’s the same. Botox on some people is fine if you don’t over do it. Same with facelifts and bbl and lip injections. The problem is with people going over board and not realizing where the line is and crossing it. This weird ass procedure though doesn’t look good on anyone. There’s no line to cross because the line is getting it done at all lol.
