Bleach, Nip, Tuck: The White Beauty Myth
Strong language and detailed footage of surgical
procedures which some viewers may find
disturbing
Michael Jackson's radical facial transformation
was shrouded in secrecy and became a contentious
subject for discussion. Many saw him as a
sell-out, betraying his ethnic heritage. For
others he is a source of inspiration, paving the
way for people to use surgery and science to
change their race.
Part of the Race: Science's Last Taboo season,
these programmes examine the emerging trend for
deracialisation surgery through the stories of six
people who want to go to extreme lengths to
westernise their bodies and faces. The film also
interviews the surgeons willing to make their
dreams come true.
Whether it's a more Caucasian nose, longer legs,
wider eyes, or even less body hair, plastic
surgery and science are making anything possible.
The programme asks whether it is right to want to
erase your inherited ethnic features to fit in to
a predominantly white society.
1) The Body
The Body follows the emotional journeys of ethnic
minorities desperate to change their bodies, as
well as showing incredible surgery including
pioneering limb lengthening procedures.
2) The Face
The Face follows three people who are desperate
for 'whiter' facial features. We also find out how
westernization surgery is thriving across the
globe - from double eyelid and 'face smashing'
surgery in South Korea, to nose jobs in
Pakistan.
