Abstract

The presentation and construction of body image is a unique "spectacle" on social media today. The author analyses it from the perspective of consumerism and concludes that the aesthetic consumption of the body is symbolic, standardized and group-oriented, which can also lead to worries about the aestheticization of everyday life and self-regulation. Therefore, the author believes that a concerted effort is needed, not only to strengthen platform regulation and medical intervention, but also to grasp the subjectivity of body technology in order not to be negatively influenced by consumerism.
