0:07 Hi, my name is Sohina Dylan. I am 20 years old, and I am a third year. Can you see all these students at York University. I also work for a company called 360 kids. They have an after school program and I am the program assistant for this company. 0:27 Hi, my name is Hannah Wing and I'm 22 years old. I go to Rock University. I'm a full time student. I also work part time at Michael Kors. 0:41 So basically growing up I was an athlete and I played a lot of sports, including basketball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, hockey. Until beginning of high school, I started playing sports more intensely. And I got hit in the face multiple times and over the years, I developed a bump on my nose which I did not like at all I thought it was very prominent. 1:09 Yes, I used to be really insecure about my nose like I hated it but then over time I grew to really accept it. I just noticed growing up especially in the super like white area like Caucasian population everyone would always like they have someone you know all the Asian noses typical because it's different spot there's no break. So like I always know something like wow, my lips are I mean my nose is different from theirs it's like and then you and then in the media you see like the perfect nose all this stuff. If I had the option and the money to do that I would. 1:39 For about five years I tried convincing my parents to let me get a nose job. Being Indian and being brown I, it's very hard to tell family members this because they don't see it as they don't see it as important or natural when we get these kind of procedures. You know, I'll pay for myself even though they did help me out a little bit. But it did take a while for them to realize that you know what, like this, I guess Sohina's nose knows does bother her a lot and if if it makes her feel better about herself by getting it done, then we're gonna you know, go ahead with the procedure. 2:38 They basically put me under anaesthetic, I was out for about an hour the whole surgery took about an hour. And when I woke up, I was in a lot of pain and my nose was in a lot of pain. I felt like somebody punched me in the nose with a brick. I had a lot of help from my parents, especially my mom. I did not go to school for a week. She didn't she did not go to work for a week. She stayed home with me was very difficult for me to walk around. So the second cosmetic procedure that I got was lip augmentation and that was in November of the same year. And I want the same doctor and I explained to them that you know what, like my lips are not that thin but I feel like with my new nose getting lip fillers would look a lot better, especially after seeing all my friends get it. 3:24 Yes, cuz that's what I started to overdrawing. I would say, almost two years ago, I decided to start getting lip fillers. And I think over the two years I've accumulated over I wouldn't say almost four and a half millimeters of lip filler like syringes. So wait, I think that would be four millimeters of syringe syringes or of lip filler of two different brands. And I've tried two different injectors over the two years, because there was a time where I literally got out of control. And I like they were so big, because like, it's just addicting to do because I think what people like is change, like they like they love to see change. You know what I mean? Like when people go to gym, they want to change immediately. So it's just like, when you first did it, you're like, wow, like you're obsessed. And then you do it again, and again and again, and it got too big. So I never really actually want to get my lips set at all. But then I guess when I got older, the trend shifted a lot, especially with Kylie Jenner's era of getting lip fillers, like, everyone started getting it. And then that was like the societal norm like nice, like big, juicy lips. And then that's what, that's what I guess that was the trigger to make me go. I think at the time growing up, you're so influenced by everything around you, you want to strive to be perfect and all this other stuff. 4:37 I feel that once I have gotten these procedures done, I feel a lot better about my physical features that I don't need to cover it all up with makeup. I don't mind showing my side profile anymore. I don't need to over line my lips are used any lip pumping tools, which is two of the biggest reasons why I did get these procedures done. And I feel a lot better about myself. These cosmetic procedures are not meant to change your face. I feel that if you get them done properly, and by the right doctor, that can definitely enhance your beauty or enhance whatever you don't like about your face, not completely changed them, which I think is so important when getting anything done. 5:24 That's true. When people are like it's for happiness, it's actually not for happiness, it's to enhance and add to your happiness. But it's not going to solve, like I don't think it's going to make you it's going to change your life and make you happy person, but it will enhance your happiness. Plus the surgery is good, but it's not a miracle worker. If it's something that makes you happy, do it. If it's something that you want to fix do it, but just know that at the end of day is not going to fix your happiness, though.
