‘Mewing’ Came Before Bone Smashing©samm.zia/TikTok
A trend called "mewing" appeared long before bone smashing ever existed.
The practice surfaced in 2011 and it involves resting the tongue on the roof of your mouth to change the shape of your jawline.
This technique actually originated from someone with more credibility than a random teenager on TikTok. It was invented by British orthodontist Mike Mew, who published videos of his technique on his YouTube channel. Mewing became a trend in the mid-2010's, with many teenagers and young adults posting clips of themselves trying the practice out themselves.

Specialists Have Spoken Out Against the Trend©dixovic/TikTok
Kyle Zagrodzky, founder & CEO of a company called OsteoStrong, has strongly advised against following these bogus beauty trends on TikTok.
OsteoStrong, claims to be a "science-backed, research-driven program" that uses specific exercises to help increase bone density. “In a desperate and depraved effort to gain physical beauty and acceptance by others, people are willfully breaking the bones in their own face, believing that the bones will heal back in a way that makes them more physically attractive," said Zagrodzky.
Doctors Have Also Discredited the Shocking Trend©syrianpsycho/TikTok
Dr. Etan Sugarman, an orthopedic surgeon at Lenox Health Greenwich Village, recently debunked claims that "looksmaxxing" and bone smashing would change the shape of someone's face.
He dismissed the TikTok trend as nothing more than viral deception, saying, “The idea that randomly breaking your bone will magically result in a more desirable cosmetic appearance, I think it is, at best, magical thinking.
More likely than not…this will result in pain without any significant improvement in cosmetic appearance."
Cosmetic Procedure Can Alter Physical Appearance©dillon.latham/TikTok
Despite TikToker’s claims, it is highly unlikely that taking a hammer to the face will result in a desirable aesthetic. Anyone who hits themselves in the face with a sledgehammer will only cause further damage to themselves.
While TikTokers claim that they are capable of performing cosmetic procedures on themselves at home, there is nothing safe about what they are promoting. Only trusted cosmetic surgeons have the knowledge and training to sharpen jawlines and alter physical attributes, not uninformed strangers on the internet.
Leave it to the Professionals©joingebretsen/TikTok
While it’s true that plastic surgeons must break bones sometimes to change the appearance of certain facial features such as the nose, it's important to note that they have years of education and training.
According to Zagrodzky, “A bone that was previously broken but healed in the wrong way may need to be reset, or bone will need to be cut to prepare it for a prosthetic hip or knee joint to be implanted, and yes, plastic surgeons will sometimes break a bone in an effort to improve someone’s aesthetic appearance.”
Don’t Believe Everything You See©gnak7/TikTok
While most, if not all, of the “looksmaxxing” and bone smashing videos are fake, that still hasn’t stopped teens from copying them.
Thousands of TikTokers have encouraged others to partake in these odd trends that will inevitably result in more physical problems than benefits. TikTok can be a dangerous place if you take everything you see at face value.
Unfortunately, many teens aren’t wise enough to understand the repercussions of following crazy trends.
They'd never be this dismissive of women getting plastic surgery jfl
The narrative for chicks would be completely different.
