How does someone who is 'not beautiful' become 'beautiful'?

four bourbons ... OK OK fine, if you're just talking about becoming more in line with conventional western beauty norms, there are all sorts of alien technology and necromancy they got nowadays that helps...but beauty is so subjective that there really isn't a single answer for that

Instagram. This is very sarcastic but sometimes true. Though it isn't what you asked for. "Being beautiful" is something that doesn't exist as such for itself. It is a state of an interaction between a subject and its beholder. So becoming beautiful might just need the right beholder, the right subject, the right combination of both. We all agree upon certain ingredients for beauty but we also widely differ even in the most basic things. So the question for "how" to do it is almost impossible to answer.

I don't know, I'd have to try not to get frustrated with a person who asked me that about themselves. I kind of marvel at people being able to care that much about how beautiful they think they aren't past a certain age. There's so much other shit that you go through, or at least in my experience there is. I feel like we're these bags of diseased meat that can think about stuff so it's sort of a wonder that we're not objectively less beautiful than we tend to think we are.
