Tom Jones Cosmetic Surgery Halted By Surgeons

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

jones_tom_web.jpg This just isn’t what you want to hear.  On a recent visit to a Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon Tom Jons was told by a surgeon to be “careful with his eyes” and to consider not doing anything else so as to look as natural as possible.

“He advised me against having anything else done,” reveals Jones, in an exclusive interview with the Daily Mirror.

“He told me: ‘Your eyes will be bloody popping.’ He said I should try to look as natural as I can.”  “I’ve had some nips and tucks,” he admits, with a laugh.

Paris Hilton Breast Augmentation

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

It’s been speculation for awhile now, but many sites are claiming the procedure to be confirmed, although I have not seen a source yet.  So, I can not confirm that Paris Hilton has in fact had breast implants, although all of the photos I’ve seen certainly lean that way.

Either that or she has one hell of a push up bra.

What do you think? Implants or wonder bra?

The twins Ashley & Mary-Kate Olsen recently had a consultation with Dr. Raj Kanodia who is also responsible for Jennifer Aniston’s and Ashlee Simpson’s nose jobs.

According to a source that spoke with In Touch Weekly, “Ashley has always thought her nose was a little too big, so she wanted to get it done.” “When she talked to her sister about it, she loved the idea.”

I think these girls have alot more to worry about than their noses.

The last thing they want is to end up looking like Michael Jackson..losing part of their nose.

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

A recently released transcript from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation discusses how scientists are regrowing skin and cartilage in the laboratory and using it to repair human bodies.   Reseachers in Melbourne will be opening a lab tomorrow the goals of regrowing fat in the body.  This is exciting news for victims of diseases like breast cancer.

Some excerpts from the transcript:

“BEN KNIGHT: But now, researchers at this Melbourne laboratory say they’re close to being able to give women like Yvonne another option, to literally grow themselves a new breast inside their own body.

Male Cosmetic Surgeries on the Decline

Monday, March 26th, 2007

According to the ASPS there were 1.1 million cosmetic procedures performed on men in the year 2006.  This is a 7% decline from the previous year 2005 and accounted for 9% of all cosmetic surgeries performed during 2006.

Of the procedures performed on men the top 5 surgeries were nose reshaping, eyelid surgery, liposuction, hair transplantation, and breast reduction.  Of these procedures there were drastic shifts between the year 2000 and 2006.  The number of liposuctions performed on men dropped by 32% and the number of facelifts performed dropped by 39%.  Male breast reductions performed during this time shifted in the opposite direction increasing by 22%.

Mommy Makeover Procedures Increasing Among Baby Boomers

Monday, March 26th, 2007

A cosmetic procedure called a “Mommy Makeover” includes breast augmentation, tummy tuck and breast lift.  These procedures rank first, fourth and fifth respectively among all cosmetic surgeries performed on women between the ages of 20 and 39 in 2006.

Cosmetic Surgery Vanity Tax Coming Soon?

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

Apparently State Rep. Phyllis Kahn is of the impression that those of us that are more fortunate than others should have to pay for it. According to Kare11.com:

“State Rep. Phyllis Kahn is pushing to extend Minnesota’s 6.5 percent sales tax to cosmetic surgery and appearance-enhancing procedures including chemical skin peels, laser hair removal, cosmetic injections and spider vein treatments.”

Okay, fine…But, why do you ask?

“‘Anybody who has the money for plastic surgery can afford to pay the tax, said Kahn, a Minneapolis Democrat.’ There aren’t a lot of homeless people and there aren’t a lot of people who don’t have enough money for food who are getting optional cosmetic surgery,” she said.”

Scarlett Johansson Says OK To Cosmetic Surgery

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

Recently Scarlett Johansson said “I don’t want to become an old hag! If you’re comfortable with yourself that’s sexy, but if you’re not then go for it.”

By no means is Scarlett even close to needing plastic surgery, but I wonder when and where she’ll get it.

She doesn’t seem like the type of celebrity who will get breast implants.  Her facial features are nearly perfect.

If I had to venture a guess I’d say that as Scarlett gets older, in 10-15 years, she might need some sort of aging treatment or contouring.

Cosmetic Surgeries Rising, Breast Augmentation Most Popular

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

According to CNN and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, “Nearly 11 million cosmetic plastic surgery operations were performed in the United States in 2006, up by 7 percent from 2005, the group said.

The most popular cosmetic choice was breast augmentation, with 329,000 reported in 2006. This is the first time “breast jobs” have passed nose reshaping surgery, performed on 307,000 people in 2006.

Liposuction followed in a close third place, with 302,000 procedures.”

Surprising?  Not at all.  It has become common for a woman to have breast implants or a lift procedure.  I only expect this number to increase over the next few years as the industry evolves, procedures are improved, and costs are reduced.

Sara Jessica Parker Nose Job

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

There was a discussion on Teamsugar.com whether Sara Jessica Parker had a nose job.  Viewing the photos below it seems pretty clear to me.  The difference in size and shape is quite large.   Her new nose is smaller and thinner than the previous nose.

On a separate note, look at how nice her teeth are in comparison to her younger photo.  She must have had a considerable amount of dental work to get the pearlies that white and straight.
