Read MoreThe global pharmaceutical company Allergen – the company which gave the world the hyaluronic acid dermal filler Juvederm and Botox, the world’s most popular anti-wrinkle injectable – have released a rather interesting survey report which is worth taking a look at in closer detail, as it confirms the suspicions we’ve been holding for quite some time.

The jury came out on this one a long time ago: breast lifts work.
Read MoreIn the UK there are two approaches to plastic surgery. One option is to go with the big cosmetic surgery clinic chains. You know the type: they’ll have an office in all the major cities in the UK, they bombard potential clients through social media and online advertising, and they’ll have ads in all the newspapers and magazines. The other option is to go with an independent, experienced and highly qualified cosmetic surgeon.
Read MoreWe know that the first experience anyone has with aesthetic surgery is an enormous step, and for good reasons: nobody likes to undergo a surgical procedure, and the idea of choosing to have one can be a strange one to certain people.

Read MoreIf you’re dissatisfied with the size of your breasts, or the shape, or both, you’re in luck: you live in an age where cosmetic procedures for the breast area are not only safe and effective, but also where having a ‘boob job’ carries no stigma at all. But which procedure is that one that’s right for you?
Read MoreA recent survey of 1,000 women revealed some very interesting statistics about how we view our bodies – and how we’d like other people to view them, if at all. The key findings include that only six percent of women will feel confident in a bikini this summer and nearly half of all women in the survey claimed that they would avoid wearing a bikini at all. And thhe body part women hate to show off? The stomach area according to 54% of women polled.
