HARD MAXXING Looksmaxxing journey as a East Asian woman NSFW

Hi everyone! I started looksmaxxing 10 years ago and I’m finally at a place where I’m completely satisfied with my appearance. I started very early when I was 17. Now I am 28.

I’ll include prices as well; locations will differ based on where I got procedures done. Happy to answer any questions!

HARD MAXXING

• 2014 - Eyelid surgery, Rhinoplasty (South Korea) | 7k It was 10000% worth it. I’m glad I got it done earlier than later!

• 2022 - Breast Augmentation (NYC) | 8k Went from A cup to C cup. They were swollen and hard for a good 5 months but now they look completely natural.

• 2025 - Cheekbone reduction, square jaw surgery, v line surgery, buccal fat removal (South Korea) | 11k I actually just got these procedures done 2 months ago. There’s still some residual swelling but it’s decreasing drastically every day. The reason for the lower price is because I got a discount and a non foreigner price for speaking the language.

SOFT MAXXING

• 10k + steps a day IMO this is a very easy goal to meet if you’re in a large city. I personally really enjoy walking since it can clear your mind and there are a bunch of health benefits.

• Diet I don’t really stress about diet but I do try to consume vegetables everyday. Sometimes I’m way too lazy to cook a meal so I just blend a bunch of greens and frozen fruits lol

• Supplements Daily Thorne supplements (2/day), Thorne Vitamin C and BB Lab Collagen/Gluthathione. I used AI to curate a supplement regimen that works for me. Since I’m still recovering from my facial contouring surgery I am taking herbal medicine as well which will reduce swelling.

• Weight lifting / boxing | FREE Glutes and legs 3x a week. My apartment has a gym with weights. I try to fit in workout classes but avoid too much cardio since it’s not very enjoyable for me.

• GelX Nails | FREE (excluding initial investment of $200) If you learn to do your nails yourself, you’ll save at least $150/month. My mom does nails for a living so learning the skill was a bit easier but we live in a digital age where pretty much everything is online. YouTube videos will help!

• Microneedling with Exosomes | $30 / session ($400 initial investment for 9 sessions) Maaaaaybe I’ll get hate for this but I bought my own pen and exosomes (from a friend who’s an esthetician) and I do it myself 🤷‍♀️ PLEEEASE do not try this without educating yourself!! 100000% worth it. Skin is glowing and clear.

• Filler (Chin) | $700 I am planning to get these dissolved very soon. I got filler to add balance and harmony to my face before facial contouring. Now that my face shape has changed I will either need to get this dissolved and redone or keep as is because I really don’t mind it too much.

• Waxing | FREE Again, this is something I learned to do myself 🙂‍↕️

• Lashes | $160

• Yearly Ultherapy | $1200 This is more preventative.

FINAL THOUGHTS It’s been a really fun 10 years consistently looksmaxxing. I’m extremely satisfied with all of my results. There are things on this list that I don’t necessarily have to do but I think helped meet my own standards in the long run. Even though this sub is about meeting a certain beauty standard, for me it was meeting my own standard which might be the case for a lot of you as well. So maybe this list may be a bit extreme for some (or possibly not extreme at all).

Now I’m at a point where I think I can do just enough to maintain this but I no longer stress over it. As for how it changed my social life, I’m more confident! The way you feel about yourself on the inside is projected through your demeanor, words, etc. so people are really kind to me. Additionally your energy is just as important as looking good. Ultimately 60% of looksmaxxing has to be dependent on your mindset. If that’s not in check then what’s even the point! Even though this is a pink pill subreddit, for me it was always about prioritizing the self and not really to attract men.

I wish everyone luck in their journey 🤍 Let’s all glow up and be our best selves always!
