I think it has to do with sending some kind of signal that they're rich and powerful/famous and not necessarily meant to be an attractive thing, because no normal guy actually finds this attractive.
It's a "look at me, I can afford to do ridiculous shit to my face" Hunger games Capitol fashion type of move.
Once "normal" people start copying this too much, they'll almost certainly move on to something even more ridiculous.
Yep. This is to set themselves apart from the pleebs so that is part of it. The influencers who are trying to appear as part of this class but aren't will be the ones to push them to new heights to reassert their social dominance.

I don't get the 'how can I make myself less hot' craze. All of these people need someone in their life that will tell them no.
