Asked: How can I change my looks? (it’s really important)?

I know this is stupid but I'm re-posting my question because I didn't really get a valid answer, here it is:

So I'm a gay teenager who is planning on running away from my family as soon as I finish high-school, and I want to change my looks so that no one who already knows me would recognize me. What should I change about my face so that no one would recognize me? (I'd post a picture but I don't want anyone to know about this), I thought of changing my eye color using lazik since my eye color is dark brown, what're your thoughts about that? And what about changing my hair color? Would that be enough? What color should I change to, knowing that my hair color is black? And should I dye my not-very-thick beard (that I'm planning to grow) and eyebrows with it? If you have any other ideas to change my looks PLEASE tell me, thanks in advance.

Additional Details
There is a clinic in California I believe that uses Lazik to change brown (and only brown) eyes to blue. Please don't ask me why I need to change my looks because it is really complicated.

The reason why I didn't mention contacts is that I want something permanent, thanks in advance.

I am not doing this to gain respect out of heterosexual people, I'm simply doing this because I don't want anyone who knows me right now to recognize me afterwards. I still want to look as gay as possible to other people, that would certainly make meeting other men much easier, and I enjoy looking "gay".

I'm not looking to have major changes but if major changes (like the Lazik) are the only solution I'm gonna have to do it, though if you have any easy solution please post it and if not tell me what do you think about the hair dying and if I should dye anything else and what color (my hair color is raven black), thanks.

There is lots of ways you can change your looks, it is up to you. Plastic Surgery would be the ultimate way, but i wouldn't do that as it is too risky.

Lighten your haircolour, work out at the gym, change your clothes, dye your eyebrows, etc lots of ways. Maybe you could even get advice from a hairdresser or beauty therapist, explain you want dramatic change, maybe they could offer suggestions.

The surgery for eye color using lasers is risky and still fairly new. Thus I would advise drilling that doctor with questions about safety, how many he/she has successfully performed prior to you, etc. It also only works with brown to blue (as current) because it involves killing the melanin (dark pigment) cells within the iris. So if you don't have brown eyes, no go.

You could get eye tattooing, but that's even riskier because it involves ink being injected into iris bound and could go very wrong if done by the wrong person (or even a skilled person. Tattooing the iris just isn't a good idea.)

I know you want permanent, but I would suggest getting colored contacts first (even just to feel it out to see if changing eye color really makes that big of a difference with all the other changes), plus it costs less and will work while you wait to save up for the surgery if you still want it in the end.
The link below is the best natural looking contacts I could find.

Hair color, of course shaving/cutting/growing it out, hair-dyes. Make it drastic though or it won't change your appearance. Growing takes a while and people adjust. You'd have to be gone quite a while for no one from now to notice you with longer hair unless you get a wig/implants/extensions.

If you have black hair now; go light brown or darker blonde. Caramel highlights on brown hair, or chocolate lowlights on light blonde hair adds pizazz. Or frost the tips.

Skin you can tan of course (use a bed tanner, not spray on. You could end up orange)

Lose/ gain weight or bulk up. The face changes with weight gain/loss though and helps with recognition issues. Weight gain (within reasonable amounts) makes you look chubbier/younger in the face, bulking up makes you look leaner/masculine

Boosters in shoes can help with height (make you taller) I believe they call them 'wedges' in stores?

Complete change in wardrobe style usually helps.

Hope this helps?
