It's like most science fiction revolving around this particular topic. The ostentatious need to show off this sort of perverse wrecking of somebody's skin and face is meant to signal something. This is a modern version of being fat to show that you have wealth.

It's meant to show that you have the disposable income to become whatever version of beautiful Trump wants. In this case it's seeking out Eastern European features one faces that otherwise wouldn't house them.

And why everything looks like a goddamn clown mask. They've gone too far too fast and with too much modification. Welcome to repo the genetic opera or so many other stories.
