My 1.99 penny doom prediction: this is actually good, and will help destroy beauty standards in general. Beauty will not matter when it is easily achievable/buyable. People will look at any sort of body modding technics with disgust. Similar to how Instagram effects (like color overlay, bloom, burn-in) were first seen as nice but quickly everything had it, it took 2 taps, and looking back now it's incredibly tacky.

Yes, either that or this will make lip filling procedures sell 100x more.

Imagine the time when you get an app like that does this effect, and then tells you: it will cost you $2500 to have the required procedures to permanently look like this in real life. Referring you to your closest plastic surgeon.

The future will be crazy.
