They turn their noses up up in physical appearance.
Haute hotties slam a Turkish plastic surgeon for what is believed to be a “Whoville” nose job.
And just in time for the holidays.
“Okay now that’s beautiful,” a virtual fan of rhinoplasty, Dr. Ferda Erol excited by a trendy TikTok transformation, apparently inspired by “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” by Dr. Seuss.
The viral video features before and after images of Errol’s handiwork. She transforms a female patient’s pointy nose into a Cindy Lou Who-style centerpiece — flipped edge and all.
“Me later [please],” pleaded one particular beauty fan under Erol’s content, which has garnered over 4 million views from discerning viewers, including lovers and haters of the controversial cut.
Errol has amassed tens of millions of views appearing shocking, before and after clip of her work creating uphills where it would give the Grinch himself nightmares.
While it passed the sniff test with flying colors for some, the Whoville nose haters couldn’t hold their tongues.
“Is this illegal?” questioned a cynic, as other harsh commentators likened her patient’s new nose to that of Miss Piggy and Michael Jackson.
Despite the naysayers, this is the surgery of the season.
As the sun sets on cosmetic crazes of the past, such as the do-it-yourself “mini” nose job and the much-hyped “Barbie” nose job, the unofficially titled Whoville steak could emerge as a must-have glamour. lists, judging by the flow of the document abroad.
In fact, rhinoplasty as a whole is emerging as a trendy gift request among young girls online, according to a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Rod Rohrich, a plastic surgeon in the Dallas area, explained that “social media is playing a key role in this trend, along with a wider acceptance by peers and the public.”
“Platforms like Instagram and Snapchat, where visuals are the priority, often set unrealistic standards of beauty.” added the doc. “These platforms present a world where aesthetic perfection seems achievable and this greatly influences young minds towards cosmetic procedures such as rhinoplasty.”
But Dr. Michigan’s Anthony Youn warns that the Whoville investment may be overdoing the trend.
Referring to Errol’s nose reconstruction via YouTube, Yoon, a holistic plastic surgeon, notes that the patient only had a slight dorsibulbar deformity—or bump—on her nose before the surgery.
“If he came to see me for a nose job, I’d probably shave a little off that bump.” said the professional. “And, frankly, that’s probably about it.”
Youn went on to explain that Erol rotated the tip of the patient’s nose “superiorly,” sharply tilting her nasolabial angle—the area between the nose and upper lip—up.
“In a woman, the ideal angle is believed to be between 95 and 105 degrees,” he said. “Now, this patient’s angle, postoperatively, is much greater than that.”
“Actually,” the expert continued, “I measured it at 123 degrees. And that’s why her nose looks like it’s so turned up.”
Youn, who admittedly stopped doing nose jobs a decade ago, said his strategy was to make “small tweaks” to a beak, providing patients with the desired changes, leaving them with “the essence of what should start their nose,” he said. .
“If you’re considering a nose job or any plastic surgery, you need to be very careful in your choice,” advises Youn.
“See their before and after photos and videos and make sure their results match what you’re looking for.”
