In the past, keeping quiet about plastic surgery in the entertainment industry was almost an unwritten rule. However, recently, words that were considered taboo are being broken one by one. There has been an increase in the number of stars who go beyond just revealing the fact that they had plastic surgery and confess to the specifics of when and how they had it done. From their appearance, you can feel a markedly different perception of plastic surgery and procedures.
In MBC's Lunar New Year special 'Miss Wife' that aired on the 24th, 12 star wives appeared and shared their thoughts on various controversies, boasted about their husband's first place status, and solved various quizzes.
On this day, baseball player Lee Yong-gyu’s wife Yoo Ha-na said, “He often calls me saying he wants to see me when I go to away games, and at that time, I had surgery to relocate fat under the eyes. It would have been perfect if he had made a video call, but he made a phone call and said he only talked to the kids. “It lasted a week, so luckily I didn’t get sick,” he said, making people laugh.
Actor Joo Jin-mo's wife, Min Hye-yeon, said, "He is strict and thorough in the external aspect. “If you speak too kindly, you will be fooled for a moment,” he said. “It starts with telling people to listen and not be offended.” He wasn't wrong in pointing out that my subordinates had become flat. “They said my face looked better after getting Botox,” he confessed.
Min Hye-yeon, a family medicine specialist, even revealed the process of self-treatment on her face in November last year. He posted on his YouTube channel, 'I compared the original Rejuran Healer vs. the painless Rejuran HB Plus self-treatment! A video titled ‘Who is the winner?’ was posted.
Min Hye-yeon held a mirror and performed the procedure on her own face and said, "Personally, I think it feels a little closer to doing the outer part of the cheekbones. It's a bit funny to talk about this while bleeding." He showed the skin condition after the procedure and explained his care method in detail.
He added, "Needle marks and embossing are bound to be natural. The embossing is completely absorbed in a day, and the needle irritation lasts a little longer."
Afterwards, Min Hye-yeon said, "After taking care of the treatment, the heat and redness on my face quickly calmed down, and skin damage seemed to be reduced. There seemed to be a big difference between before and after the care."
Actress Go Eun-ah also surprised fans by confessing that she recently underwent a hair transplant. He said, “I decided to get a hair transplant, something I had always worried about since I was young. My wish is to tie my hair up in the summer.”
At the same time, the doctor in charge of Go Eun-ah's hair transplant appeared and explained, "More than 1,600 hair follicles, or about 3,000 hairs, must be transplanted. This is because the gap between the eyebrows and hairline is a bit wide. You have to sit for about 7 hours." .
Gone are the days when people were busy hiding plastic surgery or procedures, and now celebrities are talking openly about it. They seem to think that 'communication' with fans is more important by vividly sharing the process and even the situation at the time.
Plastic surgery confessions of proud and cool stars. However, one concern is that there is a high possibility that only the positive effects of plastic surgery will be highlighted. Since the problem of side effects from plastic surgery still exists, caution is needed as people may hastily decide on surgery just based on the looks of stars, or the phenomenon of underage plastic surgery may worsen.
