Unfortunately, few people can say with complete honesty that there isn't a single thing they would change about their appearance, and perhaps the Boost Your Beauty app may put your curiosity to rest.
Pixineers Inc. designed this iPhone app with Allure Medical Spa, which allows smartphone owners to upload their own photos and dabble in the virtual alteration of their natural facial features. As with many, this application serves two purposes, for one, it acts as a form of free advertising for this cosmetic surgery clinic, offering information about the institute as well as educating users on the signs of aging. Secondly, the reason that the public might be drawn to the Boost Your Beauty app is so that they can experiment with their own radical transformations without the permanency of going under the knife for breast implants or a tummy tuck.
