The implication is that these women look terrific other than in their selfies and in my experience that is not the case. Previous images may simply have gifted them with careful light, posing, longer focal length, makeup, post adjustments etc.
I read about that a few months ago. Those Doc's are laughing all the way to the bank.
Interesting how social engineering works, and the outcome it has on trends. Some women go so far as to make their butts look bigger with implants.
No it isn't. There's nothing in that piece that comes even close to suggesting it. For one thing, a plastic surgeon wrote it. Since when in the hell do they say all the women that enter their office look terrific?
A longer focal length isn't a gift. It is merely the right tool for shooting a photo at an appropriate subject-camera distance. I do like how you then intimate that selfies don't involve posing, makeup, or adjustments. I don't know how further from the truth one can reach.
They would be mistaken in having work done to cater to a perspective not viewed for more than a few minutes at most, while they spend hours a day interacting with people at a vastly different viewing distance and perspective.
