Cosmetic Surgery Facts for Total Newbies

Cosmetic Surgery Facts for Total Newbies

Last year, 17.5 million Americans made the decision to get plastic surgery, according to ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons) data. Minimally-invasive plastic surgery procedures, which require less recovery downtime, have increased in popularity by a whopping 200 percent. Women who are cosmetic surgery newbies will benefit from learning some interesting facts about plastic surgery, such as which procedures are the most popular, how much these procedures typically cost and what the benefits and risks of cosmetic surgery are. This guide is packed with useful facts which will help ladies to get answers to all of the plastic surgery questions that they’ve been afraid to ask.

Which procedures are hot right now?

Breast augmentations, liposuction and nose jobs (rhinoplasties) are the most popular forms of invasive plastic surgery in the USA. Botox is the most popular minimally-invasive form of cosmetic surgery for Americans. According to Webmd.com, breast augmentations are performed using saline or silicone implants. To avoid the cartoonish look of oversized implants (let’s call it the “Stormy Daniels effect”), women should choose implant sizes which are in scale to their body types. Liposuction is the process of removing fatty deposits with a special tool called a cannula. Nose jobs alter the bridges and/or tips of noses to give them a more refined appearance. Botox is injected into expression lines to smooth them out, by paralyzing underlying muscles. When Botox is used in moderation, there’s no “Cat Lady” look!

How much do these procedures cost?

Hollywood actresses and fashion models have a lot of cash to drop on plastic surgery. Women who don’t get massive paychecks need to worry about money. Breast augmentations have an average price tag of $6,325 USD, based on data from Realself.com. Liposuction has an average cost of $6,025 and nose reshaping generally costs around $7,475. One session of Botox injections will set a woman back about $550. Women who want the Hollywood look are willing to invest in themselves by paying big bucks for procedures. Many experience surges in self-esteem when they change their body parts or smooth out wrinkled complexions, or both.

What are the benefits and risks?

According to Smartskincare.com, invasive plastic surgery provides long-lasting benefits, but may trigger complications, including scarring. Also, invasive plastic surgery may not be right for women with certain pre-existing health issues, such as diabetes. Minimally-invasive plastic surgery offers benefits that are typically temporary. Most ladies who get Botox for wrinkle reduction access results that last from three to six months. Botox may cause drooping eyelids and/or bruising at and around the injection site.

Is plastic surgery a smart choice?

Every woman is different. For some ladies, plastic surgery is empowering. It gives them the capacity to look the way that they want to look. Women who already like themselves, but want some changes to their appearance, are ideal candidates for plastic surgery. Ladies who read fashion mags and watch TV and movies already know that most of their favorite models and actresses have had a little (or a lot) of help to look the way that they do. Women who want the Hollywood look may find that plastic surgery is a smart choice.

5 Things You Can Do to Feel Better about Yourself

By Guest Blogger, Rebecca B.

5 Things You Can Do to Feel Better about Yourself

We can’t always feel our best or be at our best. But in order to live a happier and more stress-free life, there are certain things you can do to help the tough times flow by faster.

Exercise More

Did you know that exercise actually makes you happy? While doing your workout, your brain recognises the activity as stress, which is why it releases endorphins which are also known as the hormones of happiness. And the more you “torture” your body with exercise, the happier you are afterwards! You can even get hooked on your daily workout and it is probably the best addiction you can develop. There is a long list of benefits including a healthier heart, lower blood sugar levels, a slimmer figure, a sense of achievement, better mental health, to name but a few.

Most people find it hard to endure a certain type of exercise. We tend to give up for all sorts of reasons: it is too hard, we don’t have the time, it is more fun to do other things or we simply get bored of repeating the same drill over and over again. You can solve this problem by changing the type of workout you do. Combine different activities such as running, cycling, swimming and going to the gym. Or try out some fun new ways to keep fit such as power yoga, pilates, kickboxing or even dancing.

Enjoy a Long Walk by Yourself

If you want a quick fix for your body and soul, then go outside and take a stroll by yourself! Did you know you can spend a lot of calories just by walking? In one hour, you can burn about 200 calories, which is one snack. And just being outside alone and enjoying the fresh air will help you clear your mind and forget about anything that was previously bothering you. Beautiful scenery will help you even more, so go to a park, forest, river bank or simply stroll along quiet streets.

But what if it is too hot, too cold, too windy or too rainy outside? Then you can walk at home! All you need is a few square meters and a step counter. You can play the music you like or even watch a movie! And if you need extra motivation, find walk at home videos online.

Eat Healthy

Changing your eating habits can also help you feel better about yourself. If you want to lose weight, start counting calories. You can download an app to help you monitor what you eat and achieve your goals. You should also carefully choose the food you eat. Read the labels and avoid products which contain additives, artificial sweeteners, nitrites, nitrates, and other nasties.

You should also try to eat more organic food and cook your meals from scratch. Instead of buying a pasta sauce or mayonnaise, why not make them yourself. Fresh, healthy food tastes better anyway! Whenever you can, cook your meals, because it can be so rewarding. And if you don’t have time to do that, buy healthy, quality ingredients which can be tossed together and prepared quickly, or order food from trusty restaurants.

Have a Cosmetic Procedure

Not happy with your looks? Why not treat yourself with a cosmetic procedure! If you need a small boost, try one of the non-surgical treatments such as lip enhancement, face fillers, acne treatment or laser hair removal. Perhaps you have a tattoo you are no longer happy about? That can be fixed too!

Cosmetic surgery is nothing to be ashamed of if it can actually improve your overall wellbeing. A small intervention can boost your confidence and let you embrace new opportunities in life easier. In some cases, it can even improve your mental health!

Have a Pampering Session

 

And occasionally spoil yourself with a pampering session! Book a treatment at a beauty salon to fix your brows, get a wax or have your nails done. It will make you feel so much better about yourself! Or even go to a spa and enjoy a massage, an indulgent cosmetic treatment, a sauna or an energetic swim in the pool. It is a great idea for a girly outing with your bestie!

Alternatively, stay at home and dedicate an evening to yourself. Light up your favourite candles, make a bubble bath, put a rejuvenating mask on your face, do a scrub and use your most loved lotions and potions. Then tuck yourself in comfy pajamas and watch a series you are hooked on. It is one of the best ways to end the day and fill yourself with positive energy.

BEAUTY, TIPS IN ACTION

Find the Perfect Shade. Tips in Action:

By Tia Cristy

Tips in Action: Find The Perfect Shade.
Tired of buying lipstick, getting it home, and it doesn’t work?

The color is all wrong!

The perfect shade of lipstick is out there, it can just be unnerving to find. This tip is the easiest way to match your own personal shade. Whether the color is matte, shimmer, or shine this easy tip can help.

Holding the sample color or tube up to the back of your hand in between the thumb and pointer finger will give you the best area to see if it’s a tone match. If your skin tone doesn’t scream, “ewww!”, then you may have found a match. If your skin tone looks amazing, then you’ve definitely have found a good color that will work for you.

If it’s a sample or product tester, you can rub the color right onto your hand. However, there’s no need to break a seal on a product. That’s just wrong. Holding the color up to the hand should be sufficient. (Please, do not break a seal to test or buy an already broken seal when it comes to makeup.)

The ‘holdup to the back of the hand’ method works with other colors too. Whether it’s makeup, hair color, or clothing, matching your personal skin tone can make or break your look.

Top 3 Skin Tightening Tools for Home Use in 2018

Top 3 Skin Tightening Tools for Home Use in 2018

Skin aging may naturally occur as you get older. Some visible signs of aging include fine lines, wrinkles, dryness, turtleneck, and sagging of the skin.

These could affect your appearance and you may lose a youthful look. However, if you would like to improve your appearance and remedy these skin problems, you could use the following beauty tools that are found to rejuvenate and tighten your skin.  They could effectively prevent the visible signs of aging.

 

Top 3 Best Skin Tightening Tools

#1 – Signstek Portable High-Frequency Tightening Machine

The next beauty gadget on our list is the Signstek Portable High-Frequency Tightening Machine, which could firm the skin and reduce fine lines and wrinkles with its four treatment methods.

These methods involve high-frequency treatments that apply electrodes on the skin. These include the direct high frequency, indirect high frequency, hair care method, and the spark method.

The direct high frequency is suitable for those with greasy nature skin. Meanwhile, the indirect high frequency treats the dry and aged skin.

In addition, Signstek Portable High-Frequency Tightening Machine comes with four tubes namely the mushroom tube, tongue tube, bend tube, and comb tube. The mushroom tube could treat a broad area of your skin and tongue tube is for sensitive areas like dark circles under the eyes. Meanwhile, the bend tube is for spot areas. Besides these functions, this tool could also prevent hair loss and diminish dandruff by using the comb tube.

This skin tightening device could also expedite blood circulation and diminish acne and pimples. It also enhances the skin complexion.

The radio frequency energy is known to enhance collagen and elastin production in the skin. The collagen and elastin provide structure and contour on the face making it firm and elastic. The effects of radio frequency energy could inhibit your skin to look plump and sag.

Meanwhile, the natural jade in this massager promotes healing in the skin. The heat from jade penetrates to the skin of about 2 to 3 inches then enhances the blood circulation in the skin. Also, it accelerates the cell metabolism.

In addition, the Suyanmei (elecskincare.com) RF Jade Skin Rejuvenation has three functions that could be designated in three light colors. First, it has a red-light treatment that treats wrinkles and increases the production of the collagen and elastin in the skin.

Second, is the green light treatment that could treat dark spots or any skin discoloration. This treatment inhibits the generation of melanin, which causes dark spots in the skin. It also has a blue light treatment that treats acne and oily skin.

This tool could also penetrate deeply into the skin and cleanse and remove the dead skin cells. It also removes excess sebum that clogged pores and causes acne.

It is easy to use and very portable. It could not only be applied in the face but also in the neck and body too. It also comes with natural jade that when rolled to skin, it could promote circulation, lymphatic drainage and detox the skin.
