A “Miss  Plastic Surgery” beauty pageant celebrating cosmetic surgery is being held on Qctober 9, 2009 in Budapest, Hungary.

Contestants can be now judged on cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery procedures such as breast augmentation, facelifts and liposuction.

Women competing in the “Miss Plastic Surgery” pageant,  must submit their medical records along with their vital statistics.

The contest is open to women between 18 and 30 years old who have undergone at least one cosmetic procedure that involved general or local anaesthesia.

The contest was started to boost the plastic surgery industry in Hungary, where cosmetic procedures still carry a stigma of artificiality. Pageant officials said the beauty of the contestants would demonstrate how the industry had advanced in recent years.

The judges are chosen from the best plastic surgeons in the country. There will be five judges choosing 24 finalists from a narrowed field of 50 women who have received cosmetic surgery. Internet users and media representatives get to choose one of the 24  heading to the finals as well.

The contest includes separate categories for:

• Contestants between 18 and 30
• Entrants over 30
• The Joan Rivers category

The winner receives a new apartment. The first runner up gets a new car and the second runner up wins a vacation in Kenya.

Daryl Hannah Before and After Photos March 2009, April 2009 and August 2009 in order

Actress Daryl Hannah, age 48, looks like she has lost weight and has had recent plastic surgery.

She may have undergone liposuction as well as had various cosmetic surgery procedures to the face.

The latest photo from August 2009 shows a thinner and more youthful face. The difference is dramatic from the earlier before pictures!  This is some of the best work I have seen.  She looks good!

It has been estimated that 30 percent of Miss Universe contestants have had some sort of cosmetic work or plastic surgery done prior to the competition.

I would say that breast augmentation may be the most obvious.  We can’t say for certain which contestants have had actual cosmetic work done, but the women are beautiful.

According to a Fox News article: “A source close to the Donald Trump-owned Miss Universe Organization [says] that not only is elective [plastic] surgery allowed, but it is quietly encouraged.”

Paula Abdul

Several plastic surgeons have speculated that Paula Abdul has had plastic surgery.

If  true, then she had absolutely flawless work done. So good job to the surgeons if it is true.

The following are comments that are strictly professional opinions.

Plastic surgeon Anthony Youn writes in his blog, “I see two major plastic surgery possibilities. First, her nose looks thinner and shorter, possibly due to a rhinoplasty. Second, her eyebrows appear to have that arched ‘Botox Brow’ look.”

Dr. Sherrell Aston in a feature article on MakeMeHeal.com stated, “I agree Paula Abdul appears to have had a rhinoplasty, upper and lower lid blepharoplasty, and breast augmentation. Her jaw line contour is very good for [her] age so it is possible she has had a short incision facelift…. She is pretty smooth between the eyebrows so I suspect a little Botox and she may have had subtle fillers.”

Their is still no word as to whether Paula Abdul will return to American Idol for season 9, but the season doesn’t air until January 2010. She has entertained multiple offers such as Dancing with the Stars and Australian Idol but has not accepted any new offers.

My bet is that there will be last minute negotiations and she will return to American Idol.

Marcus Davis Martial Arts Fighter

When I read this story about Martial Arts fighter, Marcus Davis, on Plastic Surgery News, I went OMG! Now there is a new plastic surgery procedure that can minimize bleeding during a violent fight.

It’s amazing what one will subject themselves to in the name of their career, sport, etc. in  regards to one’s body and health. I thought I heard it all, but apparently not.

Plastic Surgery News reports that Marcus Davis, a mixed martial arts fighter and previous contestant on The Ultimate Fighter 2, is using an innovative plastic surgery technique to minimize bleeding from injuries sustained in the ring.

According to Plastic Surgery news a new kind of elective plastic surgery is being used as a way of minimizing bleeding that occurs during violent professional fights. Instead of simply managing scar tissue, some fighters claim, surgery could replace it and renew stability in facial areas that have been badly lacerated. This could give many professional fighters not just a way to bleed less when they do get hit – but also more confidence when they enter the ring.

Watch innovative plastic surgery video.

Marcus-Davis-240209A new surgical technique, still in development, could be just the thing for professional fighters who want to reduce how much they bleed in the ring.

Boxer and mixed martial arts fighter Marcus Davis is just one of many contact-sport athletes who recently have undergone elective plastic surgery to make their skin – especially skin on the face and around the eyes – less prone to bleeding when they get cut during a fight.

In Davis’ case, this involved slightly reducing the size of the bones around his eye sockets and then replacing scar tissue in that same area with collagen that had come from the skin of cadavers. Davis said the results made all the difference in his future fights.

This method is still pending analysis from medical researchers, and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons has nothing to say about it until further testing is done.

According to Fox News, Heidi Montag opened up to Playboy, in an interview conducted by her husband Spencer Pratt, about wanting more plastic surgery. She has already had breast augmentation and a nose job, but says she wants to “get a few more upgrades.”

“I think I want to go bigger on my boobs for [Spencer],” Montag said.

“When I was shopping for my boobs, I wanted the best, so I sat down and flipped through a bunch of Playboys … I’m sure as I get older I’ll need some touch-ups”

At the premiere of “G.I. Joe” last week, Heidi and Spencer posed with the September issue of Playboy, which features her on the cover in a white bikini and some strategically placed dirt. While she said it was a dream of hers to be a sex symbol, Montag did not pose nude, perhaps due to her “strict” Christian faith.

Montag addressed her critics by saying, “If women aren’t jealous of you, talking about you and cutting you down, then you’re a nerd, and I would never want to be that,” Heidi said.

Plastic surgeons have developed a modified version of the forehead lift to deactivate nerve triggers in this region with excellent results. In a recent study, which added more validation to this surgical approach, 75 migraine patients were assigned to two groups: 49 received the actual migraine surgery and 26 received a “placebo” surgery. None of the patients were told which group they’d been assigned to.

Those chosen for the real plastic surgery had some significant improvements: 83 percent had at least a 50 percent reduction in migraines after a year. And 57 percent reported a full elimination of migraines. Read full story

According to Gary Klien from Marin Independent Journal – A Berkeley California woman was sentenced to state prison Tuesday for using identity theft to steal more than $24,000 in breast enhancement and liposuction from a cosmetic surgeon in Greenbrae.

Rosland Renee Edwards, 37, received a term of 32 months by Judge James Ritchie. Part of the sentence was for the Marin case, and part was for another case in Santa Clara County, attorneys said.

The investigation began in October after a theft complaint by the Kimberly Henry Plastic Surgery Center on Bon Air Road.

Authorities discovered that Edwards used a Florida woman”s American Express card to order $24,319 in body work from the medical office, including $12,999 for breast enhancement and $11,320 for liposuction.

Subsequent investigation also linked Edwards to a fraudulent transaction in San Jose, where $6,570 in merchandise was charged to an American Express card.

Economic hard times are causing more and more people to resort to do it yourself (DIY) plastic surgery or cosmetic procedures such as injectable fillers like silicone. The problem is that most patients are at risk with products that can be easily obtained on the Internet as is the story with Mary.

Good Morning America interviewed Mary, a woman who was able to buy silicone and syringes online. After receiving the products, she then injected her lips and face at home.

“Restylane…Botox…that’s hundreds of dollars every time you want to get it done…you know, how many people can afford that?”, she went on to say.

But instead of using medical-grade silicone, Mary used personal lubricant. This is when the nightmare began. The result was that her face became inflamed with infected silicone. Instead of saving money, Mary ended up paying massive doctor’s bills in order to try to have the damage undone.

Mary talks about her nightmare story. Watch video.

Plastic surgery or any medical cosmetic procedure should only be done by a qualified doctor.

Bruce Jenner

Bruce Jenner is speaking out about his plastic surgery.

“If you Google my name, the worst plastic surgeries of all time, or whatever it is… They’ve compared me to Michael Jackson,” Bruce once said on an episode of his reality show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.”

Both Bruce and Michael were called out for going too far. After undergoing a nose job and partial face-lift in 1984, Bruce’s post-plastic surgery face has been ridiculed and attacked in the media.

“‘Because you’re Bruce Jenner, Olympic champ [people said], ‘Oh my gosh, you shouldn’t be doing things like that.’ The media kind of went nuts on that stuff,” Bruce told Access Hollywood’s Maria Menounos.

When asked why he underwent surgery, Bruce said he “was just going through a bad time.”

“I don’t think you ever had a lot of self esteem,” his wife, Kris, added.

“I had just gone through my second divorce, lost a lot of money. I was in a little dinky house,” Bruce added. Read Full Story Here
