Models and celebrities alike have their waists slimmed, their breasts augmented or their skin smoothed to achieve a particular look.īut the practice is now working its way into our most-candid moments.

The use of photo editing software to manipulate images in advertisements and on magazine covers is all but guaranteed. Photox allows users to submit candid pictures for edits that range from scar removal to full-body weight loss. “That’s one of the best things about Photox, it empowers you to do that and be able to put the best version of yourself forward.”

“It’s incredibly empowering to be able to have control over how you’re portrayed online,” Satterfield said. The edits can range from minor tweaks, such as teeth whitening or eye color correction, to near-surgical changes, including breast and butt enhancements, full-body weight loss and bald spot coverup. The brainchild of a former politico from Northern Virginia, Photox (pronounced like Botox) allows users to submit candid photos to a team of editors who will give it a touch up - or overhaul - depending on what changes the subject wants to see made. So Satterfield once again turned to her smartphone - and an app called Photox. There was just one issue: She wanted her face to appear a bit slimmer. Satterfield liked the photo so much she thought to make it her professional headshot on LinkedIn. When Erin Satterfield wanted to capture a moment from her recent tour of the Capitol building, she did so in the most modern of ways: She reached into her pocket, pulled out her smartphone and snapped a picture of herself.
