By now we all know that cosmetic surgery is gaining in popularity, and we all know that some movie stars have gone through with it. And, we know that one of these is not mutually exclusive from the other. Now, get ready for some new ideas of how to use cosmetic surgery.
- Apparently there’s a waiting list in New York to help women stay on their feet all night in their stilettos. With laser work to take care of the wrinkles, and the injectable filler Sculptra to add padding, your feet will gain some of the respect they probably deserve.
- Sculptra is also being used on the knees to avoid sagging. Melanie Griffith and Nicole Kidman have been put on notice by the gossip magazines that their knees need work.
- What about sweaty palms? BOTOX® will take care of that, too. No longer will you have to wipe your hands on your pants before shaking hands with your future in-laws.
- Using something called “weekend lipo,” also known as “micro-lipo,” calves that merge into the ankles – called “cankles” – may soon be a thing of the past. This kind of liposuction reportedly leaves less bruising and gives a less bumpy effect than traditional liposuction.
- Brittney Spears is considering “boob Botox” to help take care of her cleavage, post-baby. This can probably fall under the Mommy Makeover section of procedures.
- Ear lobe work is gaining in popularity, too. Rejuvenating lobes with fillers like Restylane can undo all the sagging from years of wearing heavy, dangling earrings.
While we’re already aware that some people will take cosmetic surgery to extremes, and some of these examples definitely fit that mold, the point is that procedures once only used one way have found several new uses. Sculptra for feet, BOTOX® for armpits and palms, “weekend lipo,” the list goes on. These new uses might seem different, but they certainly give the average person some thoughts on what his or her options are when they want to change anything on their body.
Back to “Real” Life
Because some of these procedures seem outlandish, and only what stars might want, we only hear about it once in a while. Yet, there are those who legitimately want things like Sculptra, liposuction, or Botox, who don’t really care what the stars are doing. After extended illnesses have taken their toll, getting rid of those hollow eyes with Sculptra is an option. Breast augmentation and a tummy tuck after having a baby are others.
Regardless of what cosmetic surgery procedure you are interested in, the cosmetic surgeons are going to know your options and give you a recommendation. It’s best to talk to them before you decide you are in dire need of stiletto surgery. Please contact an experienced cosmetic surgeon if you have questions about any of these procedures.
