Skönhet har alltid varit viktigt. Men i dagens hypervisuella värld tar utseendefixeringen allt större plats i våra liv. Varför bryr vi oss så mycket om hur vi ser ut? Hur mycket bättre blir livet om man är snygg? Och vad är vi beredda att offra för att komma närmare skönhetsidealen?

I två avsnitt utforskar P3 Dystopia skönhetsvärlden, som visar sig bära på många mörka hemligheter under den glamorösa ytan.
