Christie Brinkley Breasts And Botox

Christie Brinkley before and after plastic surgery.

Let me begin by saying, Christie Brinkley is 56 years old and stunningly beautiful.

Christie Brinkley certainly has amazing genes to be looking this fabulous at 56, however a few red flags point to the help of plastic surgery.

For starters, i don't think there is any debate whatsoever regarding her breast implants.

But the real mystery is Christie's face and whether or not its seen the inside of a plastic surgeons office. The red flag i alluded to earlier is the expressions or lack thereof, coming from the forehead region of Ms. Brinkley.


This could be the result of a full blown brow lift or perhaps frequent botox injections. I guess this is kinda like a plastic surgery mystery of sorts.

Octomom's Lips - Another Reason to Avoid Permanent Lip Implants

This terrible photo is of the Octomom on her way to the taping of the View. As you can see, her upper lip looks very strange. In fact, it looks quite a bit like Lisa Rinna's upper lip. Did they do the same thing to their lips?

To me, this is a clear cut case of either silicone injections or permament implants to the lips. When they are injected on either side of the center part of the lip, they can create a look like this, otherwise known as a "whistle deformity." People with cleft lips can also develop a similar appearance.

I hope this is the last time we ever see this woman again, although she does attract attention... in a train wreck type of way.

Victoria Silvstedt Trout Pout Lips

Victoria Silvstedt is a Swedish model who is perhaps best known for being Playboy's Playmate of the Year in 1997.

Back in 1997 when Victoria hit the big time, her lips were lovely full and seemingly 100% natural, unfortunately as we age, many of us develop insecurities and seek out perfection by getting plastic surgery.

Victoria Silvstedt's trout pout lips are a perfect example of unnecessary plastic surgery, when you consider she already had exceptionally full lips.

Malin Akerman White Teeth

Biggest And Worst Celebrity Trout Pout Lips

When it come to abnormally large lips, you would be hard pressed to find another pair of trout pout lips bigger than Nikki Cox's huge inflated kissing bags.

I suppose Lisa Rinna could give Nikki a run for her money with the big lips she has, however i believe the sheer width of Nikki's lips would win by a landslide, if they were measured for a "large lips" competition...

Could the lips in this picture really be the biggest and worst celebrity lips in show business?

Awake Tummy Tuck? Scary...

Should you consider having your tummy tuck awake? According to an article by The Plastic Surgery Channel a physician in San Antonio, TX is advertising an awake tummy tuck. No general anesthesia is used, just a light sedation and local anesthetics. In fact, you can make conversation with the doctor while she's cutting open your abdomen! The article mentions that she's not a real plastic surgeon, but trained in Family and Emergency Medicine. Scary!

I perform an average of one tummy tuck a week, and I wouldn't wish an awake tummy tuck on my worst enemy. While local anesthetics can work for smaller procedures, to perform a complete tummy tuck under local anesthetics is crazy. General anesthesia is meant to save people from experiencing the excruciating pain of having your body cut open.

Sarah Ferguson Brow Plus Lips

Sarah Ferguson before and after plastic surgery.

Well if isn't the royal Duchess of York herself, Ms. Sarah Ferguson.

My word, Sarah is looking awfully youthful in recent pictures, i wonder if this has something to do with plastic surgery, for the former member of the British Royal Family.

If she did in fact go under the knife for plastic surgery, i would guess that her main operation was a brow lift, along with botox and possible lip injections.

Madonna Teeth

If my memory serves me right, Madonna was the person who made it sexy and appealing to have gap teeth, but has Madonna's teeth stood the test of time?Lets be honest here, Madonna doesn't have outstanding teeth, however considering the circumstances i would say they are very nice, despite her aging gap.I've definitely seen a lot worse, for celebrities in their 50's.

Catherine Bell Nose Job

Catherine Bell before and after nose job plastic surgery.

Catherine Bell is the lovely American actress who is probably best known for her role as Lt. Colonel Sarah MacKenzie on the television show entitled, JAG. And more recently as Denise Sherwood on Army Wives.

Back in the late 90's Catherine Bell was one of the sexiest women on television, period, however recently her appearance seems to have changed, for the worse.

Unfortunately it looks like Catherine has went under the plastic surgery knife for a good ol' fashion nose job, which resulted in a very slim pointy nose job.

I gotta admit, i was complete shocked when i first saw her new nose, seeing how she already had a very beautiful nose before the plastic surgery.

Jane Fonda Admits to Plastic Surgery

Ten years after saying she would not have plastic surgery, Jane Fonda has given in to the aging process and gone under a plastic surgeon's knife. In her blog she admits:

I just had some ‘work’ done on my chin and neck and had the bags taken away from under my eyes so I decided it would be good to get a new hair cut so people will think it’s my new hair.” He thought that was so funny he actually toasted me for doing what he said he’d never heard anyone do before: admit they’d had work done. I was planning on blogging about it anyway so who cares? I’m writing a book about aging so I couldn’t very well NOT talk about it.

It’s been 2 weeks. I was in front of the camera all day yesterday and was photographed at Eve Ensler’s luncheon 9 days after the procedure so, obviously, it went well. I swore in 2000 I’d never have anything done again but this year I got tired of not looking like how I feel and I wanted a more refined chin line like I used to have so I changed my mind. I’m still a little swollen but not much and what pleases me is that I won’t looked pulled or weird…or tired all the time. And my crows feet are still alive and well. I wish I’d been brave enough to not do anything but, instead, I chose to be a somewhat more glamorous grandma.

It sounds like she had a facelift and a lower blepharoplasty. From the looks of the photos on her blog I'd have to say her surgeon did a very nice job. She looks youthful, but not pulled or tight. The right wrinkles are gone, leaving ones that should remain. She deserves kudos for admitting she's had plastic surgery and, unlike some dishonest celebs, not attributing it to just sunblock, good diet, and moisturizers.

Angelina Jolie - Strange Wrinkles, Plastic Surgery, or Gills?

We normal people would like to think that Angelina Jolie has SOME type of flaw like the rest of us. Well, it appears that she does. No, she doesn't have big feet, cankles, or even the dreaded Man Hands. It appears, from this photo from Us Magazine, that Angelina has... weird lines on her neck! Are they from plastic surgery, abnormal anatomy, or remnants of our evolutionary amphibian ancestors?

This is a tough one. The only plastic surgery that I believe could create wrinkles like this is a mini-facelift, which I really doubt she's had. There are no muscle bands in that part of the neck that go in that direction. Therefore, I would have to argue that she probably has some type of abnormal anatomy there. Not as interesting as accusing her of a facelift, but the truth is the truth. At least she has some type of flaw, not matter how minor. One of my flaws is that I have a bit of a gummy smile.

Did any of you catch me on the CBS Early Show this morning?

Vivica Fox Plastic Face

Vivica Fox before and after plastic surgery.

Vivica Fox sure is looking mighty different these days, so lets take this opportunity and play everyone's favorite plastic surgery game, "What in the world, happen to her face?".

Contestant #1: Did she have an eye lift and cheek implants?

Contestant #2: I bet she had a chin implant and a brow lift!

Contestant #3: She clearly went the whole nine yards and got a full blown facelift!

Well, unfortunately there are no real winners on "What in the world, happen to her face?", just tears, glasses full of salty tears.

Now all we need is a "flux capacitor" so we can stop our beloved Vivica Fox from ever venturing into the world of plastic surgery.

Remember her dreadful breast implants? We can save those too!

Hayden Panettiere - Breast Implants?

I was recently asked by the National Enquirer to look at some photos of Heroes star Hayden Panettiere. Does she have new breast implants? I think so! Her breasts do appear to have gone from an A to a C. She has also changed her hair color, from blond to dark red. Is the hair color change an attempt to draw attention away from her breasts? Maybe!

I really like her. I've been a loyal fan of Heroes since it began airing (I was a comic geek in middle school). This season, however, stunk. I had no interest in any of the characters, yet somehow I kept watching it. Too bad Lost is in its last season. There's going to be a huge, gaping hole in June.

Jeremy Jackson Big Nose Job

Many of you probably wont even remember who Jeremy Jackson is, well to refresh your memory, he played the role of Hobie Buchannon (Hoff's son) on the popular television show Baywatch.

I think it goes without saying, but Jeremy Jackson has drastically changed his appearance with a major nose job, new hairstyle and dark guyliner.

Was this yet another botched nose job or simply good plastic surgery? You be the judge!

The Naomi Campbell of today appears to have a very different and much more defined bridge to her nose, unlike the young model who became famous in the mid 80's.

What do the readers think? Nose job or no job?

Regardless of how you know her, Vanessa Ferlito willy surely leave an impression on you, if she's sporting her huge unnaturally giant inflatable lips.

These young celebrity women really need to tone it down with all the excess plastic surgery. For goodness sakes, she already had wonderful lips to begin with.

Madonna - Chin Implant?

Madonna's recent appearance in Brazil has sparked rumors she may have had a recent chin augmentation. As you can see by the photo her chin does look a bit prominent, and maybe even swollen from recent surgery. Why would she have this procedure done? I never thought her chin was small in the first place!

Chin implants are placed via small incisions either inside the mouth (my preferred technique) or under the chin. When inserted through the mouth there is no visible scar afterwards. I often see people who come in asking for a rhinoplasty to reduce the size of their nose when the real problem is a tiny chin. A small chin can actually make the nose look bigger than it really is. Just a quick lesson on facial harmony...

Richard Grieco Nose Job

My oh my, what has happened to the once studly "21 Jump Street" star?

Richard Grieco has seemingly been out of the Hollywood spotlight for the better part of a decade and now that he has reemerged, his former good looks seemed to have changed, for the worse.

For starters, it looks like hes lost a good 25 pounds, which makes his face look kinda eerie and skeletal, and then we see this new slim pointy nose of his.

I don't know if he went under the knife for a nose job or not, but clearly something has happened to the face of Richard Grieco, and plastic surgery seems like the only logical explanation to me.

FDA Clears Laser to Treat Stretch Marks

The FDA has recently cleared a fractional laser for treating stretch marks. In clinical studies the Lux1540 produced an average of 51-75% reduction in stretch marks. This is the first fractional laser that I know of which has been cleared to treat stretch marks.

I find it extremely rare to see stretch marks after breast augmentation such as in Kate Beckinsale's photo here. In the past five years I think I've seen maybe three of my patients who've developed stretch marks after breast implants. Surprisingly, all three patients did not have large implants placed. All the implants were around 350cc. In these situations we've utilized a pulse-dye laser with pretty good results. It usually takes several treatments though. Unfortunately, there is no way to completely erase stretch marks without actually cutting them out (and trading them for a scar).

Or is this nothing more than the result of some good old fashion plastic surgery, like breast implants?

If those puppies are all natural, props to you Ms. MacDowell! Bravo!

I don't recall hearing any reports about her having plastic surgery, but i can't help but think that she must have underwent a few procedures in the last decade.

For one, her cheeks seem very large and unnatural, which leads me to believe she had cheek implants, and her eyes have also changed drastically with a possible eye lift.

And the no brainier would be her plump upper lip, most likely from collagen injections.

Jessica Alba Plastic Surgery Look A Like

Get ready for a plastic surgery story worthy of only the twilight zone. "Key the music!".

A 21-year-old Chinese woman named Xiaoqing, is planning to undergo a number of plastic surgery operations in an attempt to look like the beautiful actress, Jessica Alba.

Why would she do this?

Apparently, she is trying to win back the love of her ex boyfriend, who is totally obsessed with the actress.

Xiaoqing was quoted as saying "My friends kept consoling me but it did not work, so they suggested I do plastic surgery to look like her (Jessica Alba)."

Her planned operations include an eye lift, brow lift and nose job among other nips and tucks, I'm sure.

And to top it off, the Shanghai surgeons are going to preform these very expensive procedures free of charge, in exchange for world wide publicity.

Shelby Township, Michigan Laser Liposuction Disaster

This is a photo of a patient who underwent laser liposuction by an ER physician just down the street from me. This is from a sad but very interesting article by the Macomb Daily which exposes what happened to this poor woman at a Shelby Township, Michigan med spa. Check out the article here.

From the article:

The 46-year-old Clinton Township woman said the amalgamation of damaged skin tissue that stretches from her waist to the top of her ribcage resulted from a liposuction-gone-bad performed by Dr. C------ M-- at A---- Medical Spa in Shelby Township.

According to his Web site, M--, a D.O., is certified by the American Board of Phlebology (physicians specializing in venous disease), American Board of Osteopathic Emergency Medicine, American Society of Cosmetic Breast Surgery and American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine. In court documents, he says he is also certified in "tumescent liposuction" and "contour thread lift."

I am not a member of any of these groups.

The Macomb Daily also published an article on how independent surgery centers are not regulated by the state. Check it out here.

Beyonce Breast Implants

Beyonce before and after breast implants plastic surgery.

Once again Beyonce Knowles is the topic of conversation for the evening, and this time its not in regards to her possible nose job, instead tonight we ask the readers "Has Beyonce Knowles had breast implants?".

Several pictures have led me to believe that the beautiful Beyonce has had some added lift and perkiness to her breasts of late.

The question is what could be causing Beyonce's breast to look so big? Could she have put on few extra pounds or perhaps she has discovered a new state of the art push-up device, without wearing a bra?

Could this be a good old fashion breast implants? You make the call!

Does the Brava Breast Enhancement Device Work?

The Brava system is a nonsurgical breast enlargement device that claims to increase the size of your breasts 1/2 to 2 cups after 10 weeks of use. The wearer is supposed to use the device for a minimum of 10 hours a day and avoid missing even one day's worth of treatment. There has been some support for the effectiveness of this device in scientific studies. It works on the principle of tissue expansion, similar to what we use when reconstructing breast cancer patients, except instead of using an implant inside the breast it uses a vacuum applied to outside of the breasts.

The Rachael Ray Show (my favorite syndicated talk show :) ) has a segment tomorrow called Human Lab : Bigger Breasts. In the episode they will follow the experience of a viewer who tried the Brava system. Check it out if you get a chance! (No, I'm not on this episode) Click here for a link.

As an aside, I once had a patient come to see me after using the Brava and having disappointing results. She ended up giving me her Brava system after her breast implant surgery.

I always thought Hunter Tylo was blessed with good genes and a tremendous body and face, but apparently she thought otherwise, as we see the new and enhanced version of her in these before and after pictures.

Maybe I'm just old fashion, but i think she went a little overboard on the breast implants.


And the lip implants/injections were totally uncalled for, seeing how she already had absolutely sensational full lips.

Whatever floats your plastic Hollywood boat, i suppose.

Juvederm XC - Less Painful Injectable Filler?

Allergan has just received FDA approval for Juvederm XC, the newest hyaluronic acid injectable filler formulated with lidocaine for greater comfort. In their study they found that 93% of the patients treated with Juvederm XC had less pain than when treated with the non-lidocaine formulation of Juvederm.

That sounds good to me. I'm very fond of using hyaluronic acid fillers due to their versatility and longevity. The only knock on them has been that they are somewhat uncomfortable to have injected. I hope that the new Juvederm XC will make the experience of injectable fillers much more pleasant.
