"Beauty filters", in the form of cosmetics, have been widely used by both men and women at least since the days of ancient Egypt, 5000 years ago. Likely before... that's just the earliest record we have.

It’s not the same thing and you know this.

Plastic surgery is similar, wearing some make up is one thing, changing the structure of your face is something else.

On the contrary. Plastic surgery is a permanent alteration. Wearing makeup and using "beauty filters" are both temporary.
