Question 1

52yo australian man has all western features. i want to look asian filipino and want to undergo facial surgery to get that look.
is that possible?

Accepted Answer

Why do you ask?: I'm not a plastic surgeon, so I can't speak on the IF of such a procedure, nor its risks and benefits. For my patients seeking cosmetic surgery, I ask: WHY do you want this? What did you try already; why did it "fail"? OK if you were determined unsuitable, or had to cope with poor outcome? If successful outcome would you really be satisfied? The IF is the iceberg tip; the WHY is the real iceberg.

Question 2

can i get surgery to look more asian. im black and i know a complete racial change probly isnt possible but i would at least like to look half asian?

Accepted Answer

Other options: As a young adult, you may find some of your other options, choices solve the problem. Go for a consult with makeup at the professional level and see those results. Then build on it with clothes, accessories and perhaps movements. Also try counseling to work on how wonderful you are, as you are. Cosmetic surgery is expensive and results are NOT guaranteed, however they are quite permanent. Be well.
