%99.99 sure she had surgery. A lot of her flesh are missing including her lower cheeks, and possibly some of her jawbone. But it could just be that as she grew up, her face became more developed, skinnier, for the good. But she does use an amazing amount of amazing makeup skills and it is amazing godly. Surgery or not, she is litttterately the most elite and amazing looking creature - when she is all touched up with makeup :) I love it when she looks so greasy :D

Nose Job is to reshape the nose. It is a very popular procedure that can make profound differences not only in the balance of facial features, but also in a person’s self-esteem.

Nose Job Before And After
Nose Job / Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip.

It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems.

A nose job or rhinoplasty is one of the most common but technically most difficult plastic surgery procedures.The plastic surgeon can shorten or prolong the nose, although more often it is a complex surgery that changes nose asymmetry.
Nose Job Before And After
If you are healthy, psychologically stable and realistic in your expectations, you may be a good candidate for a nose job. Nose Job can be performed to meet aesthetic goals or for remodeling purposes to correct birth defects, such as cleft deformities, or breathing problems.

Nose Job is considered the most ancient and most challenging plastic surgery. In well-trained hands it can dramatically improve your looks, add softness and harmony to your face, not mentioning that Nose Job can substantially improve nasal breathing.

There are some risks associated with Nose Job/Surgery that include infection, pooling blood, nasal airway constriction and complications with anesthesia. Other effects, while not common, are asymmetry, scarring, irregularities and nerve damage.

Brow Lift

  No comments
October 07, 2014

As we age, muscles in the brow and forehead area may becomes thinner and less elastic and the structures supporting it to the facial skeleton become weaker and less able to resist the pull of gravity. One of the earliest signs of aging occurs in the forehead and eyebrow area.
Facial ageing is a gradual process causing the appearance of heavy eyelids and looking tired, when in reality one may not be! Female patients find this most troubling, as there is dropping of the eyebrows and wrinkling of the skin (frown lines, crow's feet, horizontal forehead lines, etc).

Drooping of the eyebrows can also lead to excessive eyebrow skin accumulating in the upper eyelid.This is a result of the constant use of the muscles in the forehead for facial expression.

The term "brow lift" is used to surgical procedure that can dramatically improve a tired or sad look above the upper eyelid and eyebrow region. It is a series of procedures that are used to; improve the position and shape of the eye brows, reduce frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles. It is an important eyelid surgery that successfully treated the affected areas.

Brow lift surgery can be performed alone or along with a facelift and/or eyelid corrective surgery. The brow lift surgery also plays an important role in eyelid surgery, as the upper eyelids cannot successfully treat until the brow lift has been completed.

Several techniques are used including placing the incisions within the scalp; a patient was literally scalped as an incision was placed from ear to ear to elevate the forehead and brow.

Forehead wrinkling has been a commonly treated aesthetic ailment with the growing use of BOTOX® and other neuromuscular paralyzing agents.

A brow lift is commonly performed on patients in the 40 to 60 range, helping to minimize the visible signs of aging.

Types of Brow Lift:

There are several techniques to lift the brow. These can be non-surgically (such as thermage) or full surgical correction with the coronal brow lift.

1. Endoscopic Brow Lift

Brow lift can also be done with an endoscope using "smallest" enveloping surgery. During this procedure a 1 cm thick contact lens is placed over the eye to protect the eyeball. An incision is placed on the inside of the lower eyelid. Reason to place a thick contact lens is to avoid the risk of any misfortune to the eye. Surgery is then continued over the cheek bone.


The entire cheek mid-face area is then elevated, and reattached to the corner of the eye, onto the bone. As a result of this procedure, the cheek is lifted in a natural form, and the cheek fat filling makes you feel and look young.

This is an outpatient surgery or can be performed in a hospital also. This procedure takes almost 80 to 90 minutes. After the completion of this surgery ice packs placed over the lower eyelids and cheek of the patient. Bruising and swelling can be expected for up to one week.

2. Temporal Brow Lift

Temporal brow lift procedure is for those patients who find wrinkles at the corners of the eye (crow’s feet) as lifting the temporal brow will flatten the wrinkles as the skin and muscle are placed on stretch during the elevation.

In temporal brow lift procedure two incisions are made of approximately 10 millimeters in a horizontal way parallel to and 1 centimeter behind, the hairline in the temple. An incision is carried deep to temporal fascia, a thickened band that separates the muscle in the temple from the skin.

With the help of specially designed instruments the temporal forehead is then elevated. This procedure can be performed in an office or as in outpatient surgery. This surgery will take almost 40 to 45 minutes. Bruising and swelling can lasts only for 3 or 4 days.

3. Internal Brow Lift

This procedure is used to remove the unwanted excessive upper eyelid skin. In this process an incision is made in the upper eyelid. Careful elevation of the upper eyelid muscle allows accessing the tissue underneath the central and temporal eyebrow.

Then it is unnoticeably closed with absorbable surgical seam which dissolve in 3-5 days. This procedure can be performed in the office or as an ambulatory procedure in an outpatient surgical facility, often combined with an upper eyelid Blepharoplasty.

After 30 minutes of surgery ice packs will placed on eyebrows and should expect to have bruising and swelling for 4-6 days.


Brow Lift Procedure

Brow lift are divided into ‘open’ and ‘closed’ types. Each type has specific indications for its use and many variations on how they should be performed have been described. A less common indication is in the treatment of an excessively long appearing forehead due to a high hairline. The internal steps are essentially the same regardless of the type of operation selected, open or closed.

Closed, or endoscopic, brow lifting uses telescopes to access the forehead from small incisions in the scalp. It is best for those people who have a normal (or short) forehead length and for males with a family history of male pattern baldness. Minimal to no scalp tissue is removed.

In an open type or traditional, brow lifting uses a longer cut in the scalp or at the hairline and removes some scalp or forehead tissue. It is particularly good for patients with "high" foreheads.

Brow Lift Recovery

Most of the patients can go home on the same day of the surgery and for the next 4 to 72 hours you do as little work as possible. Here are some Do’s and Don’ts:

• Apply the cooling packs on a regular basis during this time.
• Keep your head elevated and not to lay flat.
• Avoid reading and watching TV during this period, as there is a degree of visual blurring.
• Do not perform the activity that raises your blood pressure or pulse at least for 72 hours.


Your stitches will be removed after 7 to 10 days. Most of the people apply a little make up to disguise any residual bruising which may be present.

Brow Lift Complications

• Bleeding usually occurs within the first 24-48 hours of the procedure and may require a return to the   operating room.
• Infection surgical incisions, even though created in ideal circumstances, can become infected.When appropriate, antibiotics will be prescribed to lower this risk.
• Hair loss there can be a degree of hair loss around the incisions. Although usually transient, it can be permanent.
• Numbness of the scalp this is more likely to occur with behind the incisions. This is more likely with the open procedure.
• Prolonged swelling.
• Asymmetry or unevenness

Brow Lift Cost

As a guideline brow lifts are priced from $11,000 but the cost can vary according to the patients and their problems like the types of the procedure used, the complexity of their case and medical history.

Dark Armpits Treatment and Causes

  No comments
June 06, 2014


Some of us are embarrassed by our dark armpits and avoid wearing sleeveless clothes or bathing suits. Darkening skin patches under your arms happens in both men and women, however it’s more common in women with darker skin. Many have tried various “dark armpits treatments” such as creams and gels, but haven’t seen the changes they’ve expected. Dark armpits are caused by hyperpigmentation in the underarm area and many times is caused by changes in hormonal levels and specially during pregnancy. Here is a list of things you should not be doing then a list of some remedies to help you get rid of them:

TOP CAUSES OF DARK ARMPITS:

1. Shaving – Stop using razors to shave your underarms as when you do it cuts the hair just below the surface of the skin which looks like stubble. Hair removal creams do the same which makes the underarms look darker. Try waxing as it removes the hair from the root itself. For waxing you can try BODY SUGARING, which is an ancient hair removal technique that works very good.

2. Too much deodorant – Some theories suggest that strong deodorants make your armpits look darker. Use natural methods to deodorize yourself.

3. Skin friction – Clothes that are tight and harsh on your skin may also cause darkening of your underarms.

4. Dead cells – One cause of dark armpits can be dead cells. Exfoliate gently or scrub with lactic acid to avoid them.

5. Bacteria – As many as 18 different types of bacteria live on different parts of our skin. The most common bacterium that lives in armpits is called Corynebacterium minutissimum. When we sweat, the underarm environment changes and becomes more friendly for the growth of bacteria, which may eventually cause the bad smell and darkening of this area. To avoid this, you should shower more often.

Natural ways to get rid of dark armpits:

1. Coconut Oil Coconut oil contains vitamin E which plays an important role in lightening dark underarms. Apply some coconut oil to your armpits before bathing and massage for 10-15 minutes, then wash off with mild soap and lukewarm water. Follow the process daily and you will gain fair underarms over time. Additionally coconut oil works as a natural deodorant.

2. Lemon Juice Rubbing your underarms with lemon juice is one of the most effective ways to lighten your underarms as lemon has natural bleaching properties. Apply some before your bathing then wash it off. Apply moisturizer to soften your skin and don’t use deodorant for a few days.

3. Baking Soda To treat dark underarms you can make a paste by using baking soda, add some water so that it becomes a paste and scrub your underarms with it. This will remove the dead cells responsible for dark underarms and open your pores. In an emergency you can wash your underarms with water and apply baking powder to reduce the dark appearance. Try this on regular basis and feel the difference.

4. Papaya Papayas contain enzymes that are great at cleaning skin. You can apply some shredded papaya to your underarms and let it dry, then wash off with water. Use papaya that is not too ripe.

5. Potato Potatoes also have bleaching properties and can be used to lighten dark armpits. Slice a potato and rub your underarms with them. Alternatively you can rub potato juice on your underarms and leave it for 15 minutes to dry, then wash off and you will see results in just a few days.

6. Gram flour and Yogurt You can mix gram flour, lemon juice, yogurt, and a pinch of turmeric powder to make a paste. Yogurt has properties that can help lighten your skin and is great for your face too!. Apply the paste to your underarms and leave for 20 minutes and wash with lukewarm water. Follow the process at least 3 times a week for best results.

7. Saffron This dark armpits treatment sounds a bit expensive, but saffron works well to lighten the underarms. Mix a pinch or two of saffron in milk or cream and apply the mixture to your underarms before going to sleep at night. Leave it overnight then wash off the next morning. This will lighten your armpits and kill harmful bacteria that cause bad odor.

Plastic Surgery is so Extreme in South Korea that People Need New IDs

  No comments
June 05, 2014


Just how good are plastic surgeons in South Korea?

Well for starters, South Korean media outlets Onboa and Munhwa have reported that many people now need plastic surgery certificates to prove they actually are who they say they are.

The practice has been growing in popularity for a few years now, but a recent boom in plastic surgery tourism from nearby countries like China and Japan means many of these foreigners now need hard proof of their surgeries to get past customs in their homeland.





One of the most common procedures is blepharoplasty, which gives the eye a more rounded, western look, and it’s made it making it harder for authorities to identify people based on their pre-op photos on their passports and other forms of ID.

With such unbelievable transformations, it’s hard to blame them.

Though people are more discrete about sharing their plastic surgery in America, it’s a totally normal topic of discussion in South Korea, not unlike you’d converse about someone’s outfit or hairstyle.

South Korea boasts the highest rates of plastic surgery of any country in the world, so it’s a much less taboo trend.





A recent survey found that one in five women between the ages of 19 and 49 there undergo some sort of cosmetic surgery, though it is growing increasingly common among men too.

Sadly, it looks like what’s driving this trend is East Asia’s pop culture, which tends to idolize western looks and music in particular.

But that’s no excuse. When you need a certificate to prove who you are, maybe it’s time to consider pumping the brakes on the plastic surgery.

While South Koreans may need to take a good hard look at the mirror when it comes to it’s growing obsession with plastic surgery, there are places where it can do some good beyond the superficial. Operation Smile is an international children’s medical charity that help’s provide safe surgical care for cleft palate treatment, helping heal children’s smiles forever.

How to Take Care of Dry Cracked Feet

  No comments
May 30, 2014

Sandal season is starting, and so many of us have dry cracked feet that we are often embarrassed by putting our feet on display. You might even have considered visiting a podiatrist. In any major store you will find dozens of products promising to heal your heels, but how do you know which ones work? Why do your feet do this?

Your feet do not produce natural oils, they rely on sweat glands to moisturize them and keep them soft. There are several things that can keep your body from doing this itself, this includes diabetes, thyroid trouble, any chronic illness that affects your skin, edema, and aging. It can also be caused by bacteria, vitamin deficiencies, overexposure to water, shoes that don’t fit properly, and lack of air circulation around the feet.


Dry Cracked Feet Before and After

There are some easy at home remedies for dry cracked feet to try, and some good common sense rules of thumb to use. If your moisturizer or foot lotion lists its first ingredient as water, it’s not going to solve the problem. Water dries you back out. There are things probably in your fridge and kitchen cupboards right now that can put your feet on the path to smoothness.

  1. 1 cup of white vinegar to 2 gallons warm water, soak for 30-45 minutes once a week, rinse, dry, apply moisturizer and socks.
  2. 1/2 cup baking soda to 1 gallon warm water, stir until dissolved, soak 30-45 minutes, rinse, dry, apply moisturizer and socks.
  3. 1-2 gallons warm water, few drops tea tree oil, soak, rinse, dry, moisturize, apply socks – this works great if it’s from bacteria or fungus.
  4. 1-2 gallons warm water, 2-3 Tablespoons lemon juice, soak, rinse, dry, etc.


Instead of lotion try some olive oil, coconut oil, or any kitchen oil, you can add a drop or 2 of an essential oil to make it smell good if you like, make sure it is an essential oil and not a fragrance oil, most fragrance oils have an additive that makes them unsafe for skin application. One great mix is one Tablespoon olive oil and a few drops lemon juice, mix it up and rub it on. Always use clean cotton socks after, cotton will allow air to circulate while your feet soak up the moisture.

Enjoy your soft and smooth feet, and your comfortable summer shoes!

Does your period effect your skin complexion?

  No comments
May 20, 2014

Monthly hormone surges stimulate sebaceous glands to secrete oil and can wreak havoc on your skin.
BASIC FACTS

Your cycle starts on the first day of your period and lasts anywhere from 21-40 days. Ovulation (when an egg is released, awaiting fertilization) occurs on or around day 14 of your cycle. In the first week after your period, estrogen increases, keeping skin clear (this hormone helps keep oil glands in check). But once ovulation occurs, your blemish potential increases, peaking in the days before your period. The result: oily skin and breakouts.

period effect skin
WHAT TO LOOK FOR

Clues that your complexion problems may be hormonal:

- You usually get breakouts the week before your period concentrated on the jaw line, chin and neck.

- Your skin is more sensitive during the fourth week of your cycle. Skip waxing and facials now.

- You have irregular periods and/or excess hair on the face or body in addition to acne. You may have a hormonal disorder and should consult your doctor. Polycystic ovary syndrome, a
treatable condition affecting 4-6 percent of American women, could be to blame.

WHICH PRODUCTS TO BE USED

You don’t have to buy lots of products which costs you more. Normal products can be used like Ponds/Nutrigena/etc. Never leave your makeup-on at night. Use a non-drying toner for freshly washed face.Drink more glasses of water, and have less sweet.

Acne Treatment Information: Accutane Side Effects and Patient Information

  No comments
May 20, 2014



Accutane is a medication used for the treatment of severe cases of acne, especially those linked to permanent and disfiguring scarring such as acne vulgaris, acne conglobata and acne fulminans.

This drug is related to vitamin A, which makes it classified as a retinoid. Most dermatologists and physicians prescribe Accutane for management of acne. Since there are high risks for developing side effects, it is often not used as the first course of treatment. Deep facial cleansers and topical creams are usually the first round of treatments patients will receive.

Physicians have also utilized the drug to treat Harlequin-type-ichthyosis, a rare condition that causes the skin to present plating as thick as armor after birth. Accutane has also been used sparsely to treat certain types of cancers including pancreatic and brain cancer. However, the drug may work throughout the body in killing cells not related to cancers.

The typical dose for a patient taking Accutane is in the form of a pill. The dosage is normally split into two times daily regimen and be taken with a meal. The round of medication lasts between 15 and 20 weeks and physicians recommend that Accutane not be given as a once-daily dose, as this may introduce too much into the body at once.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) mandates a Black Box warning on all isortetinoin products, including Accutane. This warning provides the potential hazards and side effects that could affect patients who take the drug.

Side Effects

Side effects of Accutane include: Acne flare ups, severe dry skin on body, hair thinning, headache, eczema, fatigue, brittle nails, menstrual problems, gastrointestinal problems, including diarrhea. Some severe side effects which can occur to patients who consistently take Accutane may include: severe depression, suicidal thoughts, birth defects, liver damage, intense nausea and allergic reactions.

Patients with a sensitivity or allergy to paraben should avoid this drug. Accutane should only be taken if prescribed by a doctor and should be taken only in the recommended dosage. Blood and liver tests may be requested while a patient is using Accutane to ensure the body is not responding negatively to the medication.

Patients with a family history of depression are discouraged from taking Accutane, as the risk for depression can be worsened. Certain conditions may warrant an adjustment in the suggested dosage of Accutane for some patients. Accutane should also not be used by women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, as birth defects are likely. Please be sure to speak or receive a checkup with a dermatologist prior to making a decision.

By providing FDA alerts, drug information and drug side effects about prescription and over the counter medications, we can ensure an environment where patients have the best knowledge on their medical treatment and health.

Dry Skin Remedies For Your Shower

  No comments
May 20, 2014

Don’t cry for a dry skin it’s not a problem you'll always have to deal with. There are lots of daily routine that will make a big difference to the health of your skin. Here are 5 dry skin remedies for this winter and see how quickly your skin makes a turn around.

1. Water, make sure you check the temperature of the water. If you love hot water bath then it’s not a problem but how long you take bath is a problem. Hot water will strip the moisture and oils out of your skin, leaving it parched, dry and scaly. So don’t take hot water bath more then 15. Use warm water instead of hot water so u can stay longer in your bathroom. Hot water is going to make your hair frizzy and dry so rinse your hair in cool water.

2. Bubbles bath, oh I remember my childhood most of us grow along with bubble bath so it’s a kind of habit. But, did you know that many of the bubbles you put in your bath will leave your skin stripped of the oils your skin needs? Instead of using a bubble bath, find a soothing oatmeal or milk powder that will enhance your bath experience, and leave the oils where they belong. Also you could try is a bath oil. . A cap full of oil will leave your skin even more hydrated than before you hopped in so you may be able to skip the moisturizer.

dry skin care

3. Skip the Shaving MistakesYou probably have heard the age-old advice to shave in the direction of your hair growth for safe shaving. And while that's a nice thought, realistically most people shave in the opposite direction of hair growth to get the closest results. If you want the safest shave, go with your hair growth. If you just can't follow that rule, make sure you follow these shaving tips: Use a moisturizing shaving gel or cream. The $1 bottle at the drug store is likely to leave your skin dry and more susceptible to nicks.Look for a product that offers moisturizing components such as aloe and essential oils.Skip the ones that have alcohol listed in their top few ingredients.You can always use hair conditioner in a pinch for a close, nick-free shave.

4. Pat Dry, Don't Rub DryWhen you get out of the shower and grab your towel, gently pat the water off of your skin instead of rubbing your skin dry. This will save your skin the misery of "towel abuse" most men (and some women) hibitually inflict on their skin. By patting dry (or gently rubbing), your skin will be able to retain more of the moisture you're going to seal in with our next step: body moisturizer.

5. Never Ever Skip the MoisturizerThe very most important step to remember is to moisturize every single time you get out of the shower or bath. It is never OK to skip, so find a favorite lotion, butter or oil and keep it in your bathroom. When you skin has been dried off, it's important to seal in the moisture from the shower, and the quicker you do this after your shower, the better your skin will look and feel. And if you moisturizer of choice is a body oil, it's actually best to apply it to damp skin. Make sure you are careful for drops that might spill, oil will make your tub or floor very slippery.

Skin vs Plastic Surgery

  No comments
May 20, 2014

Bad plastic surgery happens when someone feels pressure to look good and they have more money than brains. Which pretty much describes the majority of celebrities out there.

Some of the following don’t quite look like human beings anymore, which would be tragic (this is voluntary! they didn’t have to look like this) if it weren’t so stupid. Most of these people were genetically blessed to begin with, which makes you wonder why they would risk their good looks just to hold off from aging a tiny bit longer. And many of the younger celebs on this list have absolutely no excuse at all, as good diet, exercise, and a healthy lifestyle would have fixed most of any flaws they felt they had.

Here are the fifteen worst celebrity plastic surgery disasters we could dig up, some of which are pretty damn horrifying:


15: Tara Reid
Surgery botched: Boob Job and Stomach Lipo

Tara Reid’s stomach looks to be about forty years older than the rest of her.

14: Gary Busey

As the Awful Plastic Surgery site puts it, his teeth look like chiclets.

Lil Kim is headed down a path forged by Michael Jackson. Can’t wait to see what she looks like in twenty years.

12: Janet Jackson
Surgery botched: Breast Implants



Janet Jackson Breast Implants

Never good when you have a giant dent in your boob. Janet needs to head to an autobody shop pronto, get that dent pounded right out.

11: Jessica Simpson
Surgery botched: Lips
Photographic Evidence:Jessica Simpson lips plastic surgery

Luckily for Jessica not all bad plastic surgery is permanent. She talked about her lip enhancement, saying “I had that Restylane stuff … It looked fake to me. I didn’t like that. But… it went away in, like, four months. My lips are back to what they were. Thank God!”

10: Kenny Rogers
Surgery botched: Facelift
Photographic Evidence:plastic surgery gone bad of Kenny Rogers

Rogers is someone else who’s not thrilled about his surgery, telling People:

Last year I had so many lines coming in at the side of my eyes up here. So I went in and got my eyes done, and I’m not happy about it. (The surgeon) is going to go in and fix that for me. They’re too tight around the eyelids for me. It drives me crazy.


9: Tori Spelling
Surgery botched: Breast Implants
Photographic Evidence:

Tori Spelling Breast Implants
Not too often you see a “legit” (using that word a little loosely) actress get breast implants that look like giant beach balls, but Spelling was willing to buck the trend. The money probably could have been a little better spent elsewhere. I hear French doctors have made some real advancements with facial transplants.

8: Hilary Duff
Surgery botched: Veneers
Photographic Evidence:

7: Victoria Beckham

Fittingly, it looks as if she’s had a couple of soccer balls implanted into her chest.

6: Donatella Versace

Gotta agree with Perez Hilton on this one, that is pretty disgusting. Fox apparently shares a surgeon with Janet Jackson.

plastic surgery gone bad of Melanie Griffith
This definitely deserves a before shot, just in case you are forgetting how normal Melanie Griffith used to be:

Melanie Griffith Face lift
She’s only fifty years old, and she’s pretty much ruined her face. If I didn’t know it was her I would have honestly pegged the person in the first picture as a woman in her sixties.

3: Pete Burns
Surgery botched: Lips
Photographic Evidence:

3: Pete Burns Lips
If you’re wondering who Pete Burns is, don’t feel bad, he’s a fairly obscure singer (he’s the You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) guy), but his plastic surgery sins are definitely egregious enough to be included this highly on the list. Now granted part of what you’re seeing there is intentional (this is a guy who has accused Boy George of ripping off his image), but those lips are absolutely frightening. Burns agreed and actually filmed a special in the UK called Pete Burns’ Cosmetic Surgery Nightmares.

2: Jocelyn Wildenstein
Surgery botched: Everything she has attempted has apparently turned out terribly

This woman has spent $4 million on plastic surgery. I would want my money back.

Jocelyn is a wealthy socialite whose husband began cheating on her. To win him back she began undergoing plastic surgery to transform into a giant cat. Her husband likes big cats. Naturally.

Didn’t work however, and her husband said “She seems to think that you fix a face the same way you fix a house”.

1: Michael Jackson
Surgery botched: Skin lightening, nose jobs, face lifts, etc. etc. etc.
Photographic Evidence:

plastic surgery gone bad of Michael Jackson
Could it really have been anyone else? It’s incredible to forget how absolutely normal Michael Jackson looked back in the 70’s and 80’s (attractive even!) before turning into the sideshow freak that he is today. The guy is absolutely looney tunes so it’s kind of a shame that he was always able to find a doctor to do what he wanted. Everyone should have told him no after a certain point, which was probably in about 1985.
