In South Korea, the cosmetic procedure trend has reached ears, with the MZ generation (a term used to refer to Millennials and Generation Z) increasingly opting for 'elf ear' aesthetics. This trend involves ear fillers to reshape the ear, giving it a more protruding appearance, believed to make the face look smaller. Videos on procedures and non-surgical options like 'ear tape' are widely shared on social media platforms like Instagram and YouTube, with many expressing satisfaction despite concerns over potential cartilage damage. Critics, including medical professionals and academics, warn against the fleeting nature of such trends, emphasizing the importance of internal self-esteem over external conformity.
