Appearing Feminine and The Pressure Involved

By Elen Hanszen


In popular culture today there is a lot of pressure to look a certain way in order to be considered feminine. Techniques that these outlets use to manipulate photos of models and actresses add to their already stereotypical image of women. Full pouty lips, large eyes, flawless skin, and high, full cheeks are the aesthetic standard these days. Women spend a lot of time, money and energy to look this way, and major surgery is not always the best option. There are small things that a woman can do that help a lot to keep them looking younger, and not have it be obvious to others that major plastic surgery has been done.

Your lips are one of the first parts of your face to show the signs of aging. The use of makeup can actually add to this issue, as the lines appear around the mouth and lips can appear to have less volume. A youthful and beautiful feature that is universally accepted are lips that are smooth and full. The need for surgery is not always necessary, as lips can be enhanced in other ways. Fullness can be increased by using fillers, and it is a more natural solution.

For lip enhancement, a better solution than permanent or semi-permanent fillers is to use products such as Restylane Juvederm, or Perlane, which are hyaluronic acid fillers. These fillers can be adjusted more simply, and don't end up with bumps or uneven areas.

Like the lips, this technique can also be used to clear up dark circles that appear under eyes, or fill in more hollow looking cheekbone areas. This is actually caused by the muscle being seen through the skin under the lower eyelid muscles, causing these dark circles to appear. When there is no subcutaneous fat between the skin and the muscle, the area appears dark and sunken. People will not be able to tell that this process has occurred when it is done by an expert doctor and adjustments are made following the treatment.

Of course, forehead wrinkles and brow lines are considered unfeminine. Maintaining a youthful appearance is a large part of looking feminine because it's these features in women that are signs of femininity. A flexible forehead with less wrinkles and eyebrows that are mildly raised and a lack of a brow pinch or crow's feet is what many consider to be more youthful. Natural looking expressions will be maintained after a Botox treatment if it is done with expert care.

We all have unblemished skin in our youth, but when we get older, spots appear and other issues can occur that make our skin less than flawless. Some people decide to have a chemical peel for these problems, but there are different types available, and for a patient it can be tough to choose.

Fine wrinkles, acne, loosening of the skin and other signs of aging including dark spots can be treated by chemical peels, that make the patient appear more youthful. This frequently makes the chemical peel an excellent alternative to surgery that removes excess skin for the lower eyelid. The eyelid area can be enhanced greatly by having a chemical peel that will make you appear younger and more healthy, and it is a minimally invasive process.
