I dislike it too. I sometimes wonder who could find puffy swollen lips attractive. They look odd and not natural and yet so many women keep on injecting themselves. I don't see this happening with men, who do not worry about botox, hair growing grey or if the shoes ain't right. It seems that women have this thing of always feeling the pressure to be pretty. I wonder if it comes from all the stereotypes seen on TV and from early age...Has anyone seen an ugly Barbie? Perfectionism is encouraged and promoted even in toys... No wonder many girls grow up and think this is how you get people to like you. It is sad and I hope that your friend will not ruin her face... Her inner wounds must probably be worse than her outside beauty...
