I read this is how both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got so beautiful. You should definitely do this.

This can’t be real.
…is this real?
The idea, yes. Did people in OP-pic actually do that? No.
“Retrophrenology: It works like this. Phrenology, as everyone knows, is a way of reading someone's character, aptitude and abilities by examining the bumps and hollows on their head. Therefore - according to the kind of logical thinking that characterizes the Ankh-Morpork mind - it should be possible to mould someone's character by giving them carefully graded bumps in all the right places. You can go into a shop and order an artistic temperament with a tendency to introspection and a side order of hysteria. What you actually get is hit on the head with a selection of different size mallets, but it creates employment and keeps the money in circulation, and that's the main thing.” ~ Terry Pratchett
It is inevitable.

On the one hand, yes, it seems like trolling.
On the other hand, there are a lot of really fucking stupid people who are also incredibly vain. A lady recently got arrested for giving people botox injections out of a van in a mall parking lot. People were paying her up to $200 to do it.
people will do ANYTHING rather than follow a doctor's health advice
True. Although in the U.S., they may not be able to afford a doctor's advice.
well not after blowing 200 bucks on parking lot botox, no
Those who are willing to hit themselves in the face with a hammer because of a TikTok trend, deserve to be hit in the face with a hammer.
People are influenced by the world and people around them. And for young people today, TikTok is a very powerful influence. It tells people what is important in life, and how to get it.
You and I believe that hitting yourself in the hammer is unlikely to bring anything good; and highly likely to bring pain and problems; but we only know that because of things we've already learned. Different people learn different things at different points in their lives. And so there are a lot of young people who, when they are told that hitting yourself in the face with a hammer is going to make your more attractive - they might believe it and decide it is worth it.
Back when I was a young teenager, people were being told they could quickly charge their iPhones in the microwave. You can only feel so bad for people.
And again, if they're stupid enough to believe that. then again they deserve to get hit in the face with a hammer.
Maybe we should just let natural selection happen.
I'm with you on that.
Relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/2071/
Not directed at you, OP, but rather the poster in the image. What insane Internet circles are they in that this is the content they're seeing?
The original OP is a doctor so he's probably getting these kids showing up in his service and went on tik tok to see what it was about.
It's because those darn kids on the Tic Tacs with their marijuana drug cigarettes.
Well if someone is dumb enough to do that to themselves, I say let them do it. It's mildly Darwin awards territory.
This may be a surprise to you, but children tend to get wiser over time. Why punish an adult for their choices as a child?
Children shouldn't be watching videos like that.
It's called experience.
Agree. after this they can determine if it was worth the views. That's how I stopped mmos, I got to top of server and realized wtf am I doing. Though I wish it wasn't thier face. troll that started this must be evil. Next it will their balls.
I agree 100% with you, but, I found your last comment odd. Like, balls have no inherent superior value than your face. If anything it is the opposite.
I have been assured that Balls hurt more. It's really a form of escalation for something I would expect to see on Jackass.
