[–] victorz@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (2 children) Looking at before and after images of this procedure and it looks pretty freaking incredible to be honest with you. Expensive af though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] yakko@feddit.uk 12 points 2 months ago* (1 child) It looks less fake than other facial surgeries I've seen, but there is still an amuse bouche of uncanniness to it. And with the uncanny valley, less is literally more.
