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

Monica Hansen

This week Maxim model, Monica Hansen, was awarded a $564,555 default judgment, according to TMZ.

The 6’1″ Norweigian model, who has been a cover girl for Maxim, Stuff and Esquire magazine, recently sued her breast implant plastic surgeon for using her image without her permission. Ms Hansen was named Maxim Woman of the Year in 2006.

According to the suit, Dr. Leonard M. Hochstein, used photos of his former patient to advertise on his website lhochsteinmd.com. The pictures have since been taken down but according to Ms Hansen, the damage is done. She said that didn’t give him permission and she has filed court documents in order o be  compensated for the breach.

The judgment is not a reflection of the plastic surgeon’s work.

Karen Mulder

July 1, 2009 Paris – Dutch Supermodel Karen Mulder was arrested in Paris on Wednesday after allegedly threatening to attack her plastic surgeon. Mulder is being held at a police station in the French capital following ‘vicious telephone calls’ directed at the female medic. The 39 year old supermodel was thought to have asked for a previous operation to be reversed.

‘She was screaming and shouting about the operation and became extremely threatening. ‘There were repeated calls to the female surgeon who was extremely scared. The suspect is being interviewed, said a detective.’

Mulder was arrested at around 10am and is being kept in a cell in the eight arrondissement, the epi-centre of Paris haute couture.

The stunning supermodel was dubbed ‘The Blonde with Class’ by Vogue magazine, before retiring she was earning up to £10,000-a-day at one point.

Watch video of Karen Mulder earlier in her modeling career. She is absolutely breathtaking.

She became famous for appearances in a Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue and for doing work for the Victoria’s Secret catalogue.

In 2001 she claimed she and other models had been used as sex slaves by senior politicians and policeman, even falsely claiming she had been raped by Prince Albert of Monaco.

She attended a psychiatric hospital suffering from chronic depression, blaming it on drug addiction during her modeling days.

A year later she attempted suicide by taking an overdose of sleeping pills and was only saved by friends. She was once a close associate of French first lady Carla Bruni.

In an interview earlier in her career, Mulder said: ‘From the beginning, I  hated being photographed.

‘For me, it was just an assumed role, and in the end, I didn’t know who I  really was as a person. Everybody was saying to me, “Hi, you’re fantastic.” ‘But  inside, I felt worse from day to day.’

Mulder has had a roller coaster love life. At age 20 she married French  photographer Rene Bosne which ended in divorce a few years later.
In 1993 she was engaged to property developer Jean-Yves Le Fur, but that  relationship ended as well.

Two years ago Mulder made a brief return to the runway alongside Campbell, and other supermodels including Linda Evangelista and Helena Christensen.

Before perfoming plastic surgery on any patient,  plastic surgeons not only have to look at the patient’s overall physical history, but mental history as well. If a potential patient has a history of depression, psychiatric care, suicidal attempt, look out.

According to a telephone survey compiled by The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), of 756 women between the ages of 18 and 64, many reveal cosmetic plastic surgery procedures now appear to be an important rung on the success ladder.

13 percent (more than 1 out of 10 of the 115-million working-age women) say they would consider having a cosmetic medical procedure specifically to make them more confident and more competitive in the job market.

3 percent (nearly 3.5-million working women) say they’ve already had a cosmetic procedure to increase their perceived value in the workplace.

73 percent (almost three out of four or, 84-million working women) believe, particularly in these challenging economic times, appearance and youthful looks play a part in getting hired, getting a promotion, or getting new clients.

80 percent (four out of five or 92-million working women) think having cosmetic medical procedures can boost a person’s confidence.

John Canady, MD, president of ASPS, says, “Consumers need to remember that while cosmetic procedures might help them in the job market, they’re still medical procedures.” Canady says women still need to proceed with caution. “Patient safety is ASPS’ number one concern. Women need to do their homework.

ASAPS, working with an independent research firm, compiled the 12-year national data for procedures performed 1997-2008. A paper-based questionnaire was mailed to 16,000 Board-Certified physicians (6,000 Dermatologists, 6,000 Otolaryngologists, and 4,000 Plastic Surgeons). A total of 894 completed and valid responses (461 Plastic Surgeons, 277 Dermatologists, and 156 Otolaryngologists) were received in time for tabulation.

Final figures have been projected to reflect nationwide statistics and are based exclusively on the Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons; Otolaryngologists; and Dermatologists. The findings have been aggregated and extrapolated to the known population of 23,600 physicians who are Board Certified in these specialties. Though the confidence intervals change by procedure, depending on the grouping’s sample size and the response variance, the overall survey portion of this research has a standard error of +/- 3.21% at a 95% level of confidence.
