Cosmetic surgery is becoming increasingly common in today's society, with many people hoping to improve their appearance through surgery to gain higher self-confidence and happiness. However, whether cosmetic surgery truly equates to "damaging one's facial features" is worth exploring in depth. 

In physiognomy, the five facial features at different age stages each have symbolic meanings: the forehead (ages 15-30) symbolizes youthful vitality and future potential; the eyebrows (ages 31-34) represent the maturity and struggles of early adulthood; the eyes (ages 35-40) show wisdom and life experiences; the nose and cheekbones (ages 50-60) symbolize social status and financial capability; and the chin and mouth (ages 60-70) reflect the state of life in old age. Therefore, your appearance determines your destiny.

In physiognomy, the nose is known as the "Palace of Wealth" and is directly related to a person's fortune, career, and middle-aged destiny. A prominent nose bridge typically symbolizes career success, while a rounded nose tip indicates financial prosperity. If a woman arbitrarily alters her nose shape, such as making the bridge too high or the tip too pointed, it might disrupt her financial fortune and even affect her health and marriage. Furthermore, many women who experience marital crises after marriage often do so because they had their noses altered, which impacted their marriage.

Additionally, the mouth is known as the "Palace of Expression" in physiognomy, representing a person's expressive ability, interpersonal relationships, and blessings. People with moderately thick lips and slightly upturned corners of the mouth usually have good social connections and ample blessings. A person's facial features are not fixed; changes in mood can affect facial expressions. Instead of cosmetic surgery, it is better to maintain an optimistic mindset, which will naturally make your lips turn upwards. Maintaining a smile will also make others more willing to approach you, and can lead to a better life in old age.

Seeking fame is in the eyes; those with bright eyes naturally have good fortune, strong decisiveness throughout life, and diligence in their work, thus achieving success. However, if you perform canthoplasty, double eyelid surgery, or alter your eye shape for aesthetic reasons, it might negatively impact your fortune. Especially, any mistakes during cosmetic surgery could affect your fortune for a lifetime.

In some cases, cosmetic surgery can boost confidence in the short term. This enhancement of "external luck" might be beneficial in certain professions (such as sales). Particular caution should be exercised with nose surgery, as it can have profound effects on marriage, health, and financial luck. Many female celebrities who experience emotional crises after marriage often find it linked to their cosmetically altered noses.

Cosmetic surgery does not guarantee success, and failed cases are abundant. Therefore, anyone considering cosmetic surgery should make a decision after careful consideration, rather than acting impulsively. The author does not recommend relying on cosmetic surgery to change one's destiny, but rather emphasizing inner cultivation. True beauty comes from inner radiance. Instead of fantasizing daily in front of the mirror about how to adjust your facial contours, it would be better to clarify your life's direction.
