Hmmm
There is a genetic defect called 'Stahl's Ear' that makes the ears pointed like elf ears from birth. Most peoples' parents have it corrected during infancy or early childhood, but I actually used to know a girl who had it and never had it corrected. She had legit elf ears, and it was really cool.
I had never heard of this before and had to google it because I have one ear that is pointed. So I learned today that I have Stahl's Ear! Most of the search results that showed up talked about corrective surgery for it, which I found odd because, for me at least, I don't see a reason to correct it and actually really like my one pointed ear.
@@samschmidt8772 Well, a reason for correcting it would be to not have to risk being bullied. That's usually the reason for cosmetic surgeries for children. Which is kinda weird, making kids undergo cosmetic surgery just so they don't get bullied lol, when it's, like, simple stuff. If they had a weird tumor looking thing, get rid of it, but pointy ears or ears that stick out a bit too much?? That's weird. But oh well I guess.
@@samschmidt8772 You should have surgery to make your other ear match your elf ear. Definitely cool :)
Lucky!
I have this on both of my ears - one is a tiny bit more pointed, but really *both* are pointed. The points are way more subtle - more like the elves on LOTR.
In fact, after my mum, stepdad and I exited the theater from the Fellowship Of the Ring, a girl stopped me in the lobby and asked where I'd gotten my ears from! XD
My mum laughed and said
"She got them from ME!"
So cute. I love my mum.
I have always loved elves too - LOTR version.
I'm only 5' 5" and chunky, which I have always despised - but *shrugs* I'm ok and look young for my 54 years - the only plastic surgery I want is to get my excess skin removed after my weight loss surgery (done for medical reasons) - lost 100 pounds, and it's an adventure.
Hope Luis is doing well, he's gorgeous no matter what! ^_^
I remember my three year old son coming back from school (High Wycome, UK) telling me what they have learned that day:
"If you are not you, who is going to be you"?
Wise words...
“i can live without breathing” THE IRONY OF THAT SENTENCE LOL
As Beyoncé once said, 'it's the soul that needed the surgery.'
Why you pronounce Legolas like that 😂💀
Maybe he read the books back in the day and just assumed that was the way. And now it's too late for him to change it?
The world's most intelligent people like Dr. Youn aren't as aware of mainstream information - like how 'Legolas' is pronounced correctly - because they spend their time on more 'impactful' activities. Often (not always!) when I encounter someone who knows all things celebrities and pop media, they don't anything else than that. In other words, I'd rather be as knowledgeable and experienced in a specific field like Dr. Youn than knowing mainstream information and feeling 'cool', but knowing nothing else than that. 😂 Plus, Dr. Youn can easily learn how 'Legolas' is pronounced in 30sec whereas not everyone else can learn medicine like him in 30sec.
@@purpledawn2727he said "from the Lord of the Rings movies", real fans (book readers) would have just said "from Lord of the Rings"
OmG a little part of me died everytime he mispronounced Legolas
@@goddess_watchingplease stop simping. I don't know where you got the idea he is one of the most intelligent people in the planet 😅
I worry about the mental health of some of these patients who want to completely erase their body and identity no matter the danger and doctor's warnings. It reminds me of people I know with body dismorphia. I hope he finds happiness
I'm even more concerned about"doctors" with no morality or scruples that will take money and enable this bs.
They probably have to sign a document beforehand
I struggle with body dysphoria mostly because how this society has standers on how people should look like. Maybe if we just let people look like however they want to look like, we wouldn't have body dysphoria. It's fine as long as the understand the risks, after all it's their body and it's not hurting anyone. Most surgeries or any medical treatment always have risks.
@@KALLASALEGACYthe problem with using surgery for body dysmorphia is that, until you treat the underlying condition with phycological help, those who get the surgery are never happy with the "new look" and will return again and again for more surgery, always looking to correct what they believe is outward flaws with an inward concept. The outside will never be good enough. You saw this with MJ. He'd had upwards of what, 12 nose jobs? And he was never happy ~ until his nose collapsed and he was left without being able to breathe and without a sense of smell. (Don't forget, without the sinus, we are unable to taste. It is only in combination of our nose and mouth that we can taste anything)
@@KALLASALEGACYmental illnesses cannot be fixed with surgeries- they might temporarily alleviate the symptoms, but they WILL come back. The healthiest solution is to seek therapy to try to learn radical acceptance. Obviously, if someone wants to have surgery to look like an elf, we can’t stop them because they’ll eventually find a doctor who will say “yes.” But that doesn’t mean we can’t advocate for proper mental health treatment.
Hi doc! This guy is from Argentina, and in this country there is a huge percentage of the population that are children or direct grandchildren of European immigrants. It is one of the few countries in Latin America where you can find people with very white skin color, naturally, even if they have brown eyes. I have seen him in his "before phase" and his skin color was always very light.
Huh, thanks for this. I never knew.
In exchange, here's a fun fact: because a bunch of Irish people settled in Jamaica many decades ago, Jamaicans can understand a lot of Irish slang.
I agree with Dr. Youn; I think his face looks beautifully balanced now. He really does not need more "refinement."
I had nasal polyps. It was absolute hell not being able to breath through my nose until I had them surgically removed.
I used to get environmental allergies bad. Heck yes’ stuffy nose is the worst
I had a rhinoplasty tacked onto another operation-- the doctors were doing a bone graph in the same area and decided to make my nostrils symmetrical. I was born with a cleft lip and pallette so 1 nostril was flatter than the other. But I could breathe through it. I was too young and my dad was listening to the doctors so we both said yes... now it's hard to breathe out of that nostril and the scar tissue diminished my ability to smell before Covid altered it even more.
Ugh - that sucks :(
Clients like these gotta be a red flag for surgeons, even I get a feeling that's he's never gonna be satisfied with the results
This guy thinks that he can “live without breathing” through his nose, but he obviously hasn’t thought about how unpleasant it will be when he’s trying to eat and drink as well as sleep, and I suspect that he’s possibly going to have some dental problems from having to solely rely on his mouth to get oxygen. Additionally, there’s a safety issue if he’s ever in need of surgery. He might end up having to have a tracheotomy done to prevent him dying. That’s definitely not going to jive with his elvish look. I think he’s probably in need of some kind of counseling if he’s willing to put his health & safety behind his appearance.
How is this not a mental health problem?
That “look at this distinguished gentleman” had me dying 😂 very unexpected, not the normal humor for this channel.
Why would one want to change their eye color, with the risk of blindness, just to not be able to see your deeply desired, altered image ever again? Make that make sense.
Cognitive dissonance… “it could never happen to me.”
Me goes to search for Orland Bloom Paddleboard photos.
People need to learn to love themselves the way they are!
If there's one thing I would never ever do it's changing my eye color permanently. He could use contact lenses like many make up artists it's more fun you could play with more colors rather than having to have one color and at the cost of blindness or cataracts or something going wrong in the eyes. As for the elf ears why not just wear fake ears and be happy? Either ways people just wanna mess with their natural features and have something unattainable.
Every time he pronounces Legolas like that part of me dies. It’s like taking poison damage in a video game.
Out of all the people I have seen going to alter their body heavily, he seems to be very self aware and has it planned out. I dont agree with doing them, bit I would much rather have him think it through than just going: "make this better now"
When I found out that they made prescription contacts in different colors I was soooo excited. But then I found out they are only made for people who don’t have astigmatism☹️
sure they do. I have some. they even can make them if you need bifocals as well. good luck. keep hunting. mine are Boch and Lome
Mine is airoptic and I've been using the same brand for 2 years they've got astigmatism color ver. But the catalogue doesn't cover a vast extent of fantasy colours. It's mostly natural colours
They'll pbbly be more expensive but you'll have to order them from your eye doctor or a specialist website like Bausch & lomb
I was going to say something hopeful but these other commenters beat me to it!
We're definitely in a different age - when I first wanted to try contacts, I wasn't able to because they weren't available for astigmatism, period. And unfortunately even now they make it weird to watch TV lying down; they sit differently on the eye because they're weighted at the bottom.
But it's definitely good to know that we've got more options now!
I was also thinking he needed counselling. Its not normal for an adult to want to be a mythical creature
It's not botched if that's what the person wanted.
I think he's absolutely gorgeous as he is now and if he wants to alter things he should do it with makeup instead. ❤
He’s handsome.
Sometimes I think mental health evaluations should be done before allowing any unnecessary body altering surgeries.
Every time I see someone going this extreme route, I always wonder how that's going to age when they get older.
Good makeup tricks can change the shape of your nose and chin without threatening your health
5:00 think of it this way--as someone pursuing altering your appearance, aesthetics are clearly very important to you and a big interest in your life. BUT, if you go blind, not only you can't enjoy your results, not only you can't enjoy _other_ people's beauty, but you can even forget your visual memories! And that's just talking about your life experience in terms of your aesthetic enjoyment. What about navigating your life from day to day? Do you never want to look a loved one in the eyes again? See a dog? Read a street sign? Live easily and independently?
I didn't get the impression that he was listening to the Dr's advice. I think he was implying that he heard what they said but he's still going to do what he wants!
It's his body he can do whatever he wants. People need to stop judging. He understands the risks, it's not a mental health problem.
surely there's more to life than being an elf
Yeah being an elf without magic power,
This guy needs mental health evaluation. What he wants to do is just beyond crazy.
Kinda have wanted elf ears since I first saw them. When I was little I was super insecure about them because they stick out quite a bit, I grew into them a bit but I like the idea of embracing the way they are while making them even cooler. Unfortunately I don’t know about how my clients would react 😅 unfortunately I do t think the world is ready for it
If you want it then do it. Be different, don't let other people's poor judgement stop you, it's your body.
I had my ears pointed almost 15 years ago. Most people I encounter don't even realize I've had anything done. I wear my hair up while I work and most people just don't pay that detailed attention to other people's appearance. If I point it out, they usually find it cool and unusual but I haven't had any bad reactions. I live in Finland where body modifications are nowadays quite common and generally accepted, but some of the more extreme ones will still garner attention. My ears go nearly unnoticed.
If you want it and can afford it, go for it, don't let others' imagined reactions stop you :)
Doctor Y, you are so good. Dang, you are the go-to guy if you have a surgery question. Thanks for being down to earth.
I did a research internship in Thailand during university and the many skin lightening products (some included in sunblock tbf) was insane. It was a cultural thing to look more western. But me, being a half English, have Irish Casper of a human being was very like ‘why? Sun burn is horrific’
Im half Dutch and Half from India living in the Netherlands, so i always already was a bit colored but more always more western looking.
To my big suprise i recently saw a documentary about Bollywood in India, how lighter skinned girls always get better roles over the darker skinned Indians. I think they call it "Fair Skinned", and the lengths these girls go through to get a lighter skin, horrifying, all sorts of chemical solutions. some more extreme than the other.
I myself have light skin (Not in an extreme manner, but I am quite pale) and often put huge amounts of sunscreen since I get sunburn insead of tanning during summer.
Personally, bleaching or lightening skin for the looks does not seem like a good idea, expecially considering the methods and chemicals used to do so.
Thanks for being so prejudiced against slavs and Eastern Europeans
@@katarzyna6982 to whom are you adressing this? neither of the 3 posts before you were talking about Slavs or Eastern Europeans at all ??? perhaps you yourself are prejudiced against anyone thats not a Slav nor Eastern European
Why would any reputable doctor do something like this?
Just a reminder Cosplay can be effective. :3
very interesting video. just a correction: Argentinian does not have “darker skin” jajaj 86% of Argentinian descends from Europeans, only 11% are indigenous
Tal cual ! We have more pale skin than darker , and the fact is that outsiders are amaze of the colour of our skin !
Hi Dr Youn
I've been watching your videos and some had me in stiches ( pardon the pun ) LMAO. I can't help but feel that people are far to concerned about their outer appearance rather focusing on their inner world. Following trends by wanting to look like someone else or just to look different is the most silliest thing because if you can't be happy with who you are, then you'll never be happy, plus spending a great deal of money on something that can disfigure you for life and cause you pain is stupid. When you can except and love yourself for who you really are then others will find you loveable and attractive. I do understand that plastic surgery for those that have suffered horrendous accidents then people like you are a god send, you are a wonderful surgeon. Sending you much love and gratitude for helping others. 😊💗
This man is GORGEOUS wtf. he doesnt need any more surgery!!!
Love you, Doctor Youn! You keep me sane😂🎉❤
I agree he looks amazing. He looks extremely like an elf already. And your honesty is fantastic!!!!!
Orlando Bloom, and Hugo Weaving, are *_the_* picture of what an Elven man should be like... and they have very realistic looks.
Great advice, Dr. Youn! Your advice applies to EVERY medical procedure, to ensure that the risk of a procedure does not compromise health. It is not only a shame, but it is ethically and morally disgusting, that doctors involved with gender denying procedures do not follow your sage words of wisdom, as well!
Bless you Dr Youn
His nose was already so small compared to some of his other features. I think the problem is he went too small and it makes his chin look bigger. His chin isn't big, its just that the proportions are off.
I have a deviated septum and i can hardly breathe out of one of my nostrils, so i cant imagine not breathing through your nose altogether.
You are the coolest doctor! ❤❤
I get wanting your outside to match how you feel on the inside I really do but there needs to be a realistic goal behind that.
I'm trans, I fully understand that I am never going to look like a super model. 1 I can't afford it and 2 my body and face just aren't right for that.
I have realistic goals in mind and for the things I can't change I am doing everything I can to mimic that look without surgeries and risk and danger.
I hope that he can become happy with his look but I really hope that he doesn't go too far and end up causing permanent damage to his body.
When he said Space Elf, my mind immediately went to the Eldar from WH 40K.
He did have a successful laser treatment to change his eye color. It’s takes a couple treatments though.
People seem to take all this as normal stuff. I'm trully horrified by it. Risking to go blind for a procedure he didn't need to look like an elf. Horrified.
I just started the video and I immediately laughed 😭😭 HIS JAW DROPPED 0:01
I'm a huge fan of Elves, specialy those Tolkien-like. In the most of time they're kinda nature ambasadors. And I think making surgeries to look like an Elf is one of last things Elves would approve, if they were real.
I had a nose correction and was completely satisfied with it. Then one day I went to an ear, nose, and throat doctor for an issue unrelated to my nose. This doctor tried to convince me that my nose correction had left me disfigured and that I urgently needed a second surgery with him to correct it, just because I have a really barely visible small notch on the bridge of my nose. He wanted to insert an implant there. I am so glad that I didn't let myself be further unsettled by him, as he strongly insisted, especially when I now hear from you (an absolute professional) how difficult this surgery is and how such minor issues often occur. Thank you so much for that video ❤️
So sad, he is so young and probably will regret this when he matures.
OH MY GOSH!?! All this time I thought I was the only one who couldn't look at Orlando Bloom the same, again! Like you, the paddle boat incident, will forever be what flashes across my minds eye when I hear his name. I glad no sharks decided to take the "bait" he left dangling that day. 🤣🤣🤣
Fantastic content.
Honestly I’m still debating if getting corrections done to my breast reduction surgery would be worth the time I would be out and I have just been feeling so good watching botched knowing I could get fixed one day. My skin itches all the time because the shape now pulls allot from the top to the nips that is facing sky. I was so excited for the reduction and feel so ignored now I’m stuck with boos that still feel to big and not shaped right.
if it makes you comfortable and you have the capacity to do so, go for it!
@@idk-wd3ht the only Dow side is the down time needed for healing and the first go around left me not sure if it’s going to be as painful to get the correction because it felt like I was being stabbed in my armpits with a hot knife most of my recovery and I go so ignored about it
It doesn’t hurt to go for a consult at a few places and see which surgeon can help. It would also be good to see photos of patients who have also had breast reduction surgery. Best of luck!
Thnx Dr youn..... your vids are great
Dr. Youn,I’ve recently had a Prophylactic DMX in January and I was wondering if you could make a video about Delayed Reconstruction maybe??? Like what the process is like,if you’ve done them,recovery etc.
different & better are not mutually exclusive....but they can be subjective.
🤣 I cannot get over how you say "Legolas" oh my goodness, that's good.
Dr Youn looks like an elf king himself🤭 Which is a good thing😏
His nose is beautiful! No revision needed!
I've always felt that my nose is too big. Every time i blow my nose the outside of my nostrils kind of vibrate and i have a loud sound every time. After seeing this i think I'm ok with it. 😅
I've wanted a nose job for years because I think my nose sticks out too much, but you know what? I think I prefer breathing over having a smaller nose lol
Honestly, I would love to have blue eyes because I find them really pretty. But getting surgery to permanently change my eye colour just doesn’t seem worth it.
get coloured contacts! i have super blue eyes and i’m one of the i think 89% of people who because our eye colour is so light we’re extra sensitive to light, more prone to migraines, lazy eye (i have lazy eye) weak eye muscles, blindness at an early age, ect ect. coloured contacts are painless and look super natural if you get a good pair and put them in properly! i’m sure you have beautiful eyes tho, i think eyes are like fingerprints they all have beautiful unique patterns if you look close enough
lmao i want to get my nose fixed since it's crooked, but knowing how awful recovery can be scares me off from it. 😩i wish the best for elf dude but damn!
Bro’s a real elf! Was so relatable 😂
Ears like an elephant 🐘 is the only way you will reach that somewhat greater hearing. Not elf ears
This is not my concern, I rented a house yesterday and I don't know the road to the house anymore 🙃 😅
Professional makeup can do so much to change the look of a persons face. Maybe he can look into that and learn how to do it for himself instead of having more surgery on the nose and not be able to breathe.
This guy doesn't need a plastic surgeon. He needs a psychiatrist. Where I would draw the line on plastic surgery is correcting defects. A cleft palate, damage from an accident, etc. Basically, to correct abnormalities. I'm not a big fan of it for frivolous, or in this case insane, reasons.
I have a problem where I don’t connect with the person in the mirror. She’s not ugly but she’s not me. I don’t think I’ll ever get surgery, but I watch these videos to get an idea of alternatives, this one in particular was very helpful
I think about Hugo Weaving’s character, Elron!
Contrary to what the Dr said, Argentine people mostly have very fair skin. This happens in the south of Brazil and in several places that don't have as much miscegenation...
Are there any Youn Beauty products that can help reduce guttate psoriasis spots on a teenager?
I lost it at 0:28 lol
I yea I remember this guy.
The elf guy looks like a character “Estes” from mobile legends bang bang !! So cool
Being from Argentina doesn’t mean your skin is darker. Argentinian ancestors came from Europe : Italy and Spain specifically .
How effective is glutathione for skin whitening really??? 🤔
Me pinching/cuffing my ear to see if I can hear the video better lol
He looks more like those World of Warcraft high-elves in my opinion.
This guy is mild compared to Catman and Lizardman! Rip Dennis Avner 😢
I wish more people would invest in their mental well-being, rather than their appearance.
OMG he is a Wraith from Star Gate Atlantis!
There must be a lot of crazy people asking for really far out weird stuff from plastic surgeons.
Hi Dr Youn! I switched over to your skin care regiment, and LOVE IT! I was wondering if you could help me out with one more skin concern! I had a pretty extensive wisdom tooth extraction back in February and mid healing I ended up with a really bad perioral dermatitis infection. I did a 30 day round of doxycycline which cleared it up, but now I get little flare up. Can you make a video on tips to prevent flare ups?
The elf in The Lord of the Rings is called Lego-las, not le-go-las
As somebody that is going blind this guy has no idea what he is talking about having him spend a few days under a blindfold and then ask him the same question again cause I can tell you it sucks I’m slowly losing my vision, and as of my 21st birthday I no longer was able to drive I cannot get out in the sun without pain I cannot read prescription labels anymore. I cannot read a lot of things anymore. My only joy in life was actually being with my guide dogs and they truly were the only thing that brought me out of my darkness.
I can imagen not breathing though the nose.. My nose is naturally small, AND very crooked, so much so my doctor is advising me to get it fixed hehe!
I'm kind of scared of getting a nose job, because i really do like my weird funny nose at it is, but i got to admit, it is actually worsening my sleep, and not helping on my asthma issues..
I always say that more should go into the process to making the decision for plastic surgery, because again, if you aren't happy with yourself you should really have a professional there to make sure these are decisions you want to make, or even if it's a decision you need to make. Especilly if it's something literally nobody will recommend to you!
This dude doesn't want a nose or a jaw.
I truly want to have elf ears!!! I’m a professional Mrs. Claus n that would be magical!!!
Argentina actually has a lot of people who are first or second generation of European descent so it’s really common to find fair skin people
I wouldn't toot about how many descendents of escaped Nazis there are in a country. 😂
I know the kind of elves he is talking about.. There is a series of books called spell jammer.. The space elves are mentioned in these books..
Lay - Go - L - us, accent on the Lay🧐😎😂
3:42 elf ears
7:02 narrowing nose can make breathing more difficult?
I'm a singer and we cup our ears sometimes to hear if we're singing correctly
That’s a really interesting thing to learn!
