12 Hilarious Slimming Products from Japan

As I was researching for the previous posts, I came across these wacky products that claimed to provide the results from cosmetic surgeries, but at a much cheaper cost. These products are so ridiculously funny that I find it really hard to focus on their functions.

Here you go:

1. Newest Japanese creation – the Face Slimmer. Bite onto this silicon and recite the vowels to achieve slim face, V jawlines, and a reduction of wrinkles around the mouth. (What??)

A Living Doll from Japan: Vanilla Chamu

The question from the previous post has its answer. Yes, the effect of Barbie is worldwide.

Having spent $100,000 on plastic surgery to look like a doll, Vanilla Chamu underwent 30 procedures that made her wish came true. From the radical transformation, Chamu looks like a westerner more than a Japanese.

Chamu’s procedures included:
– double-eyelid surgery
– nose job
– liposuction
– eyelash implants
– dimple creation
– breast implants

Still not satisfied with her current look, Chamu claims that she is considering height lengthening surgery. Will this put an end to her plastic surgery obsession?

Check out the BDD symptoms that Chamu fits in:
– Obsessive thoughts about perceived appearance defect.
– Obsessive and compulsive behaviors related to perceived appearance defect.
– Delusional thoughts and beliefs related to perceived appearance defect.
– Repetitive behavior (such as constantly applying make-up; regularly checking appearance in mirrors).
– Perfectionism (undergoing cosmetic surgery).
