Bruising and Swelling After Rhinoplasty

It’s pretty much common knowledge by now – rhinoplasty has nothing do to with a rhino and everything to do with your nose and making it look the way you want it to. Done by a plastic surgeon, this procedure is among the most commonly asked for and it is one wherein only the positive effects are highlighted.

Like any surgery, there’s going to be a level of injury immediately thereafter. Bruising after rhinoplasty is fairly [...] Continue Reading…

Male Laser Hair Removal

There might still be some people and cultures out there that see lots of body hair on men as attractive, but generally speaking, the “manly” chest-rug look doesn’t really fly so much anymore. It used to be that hair removal for men would consist almost exclusively of shaving the face and trimming the hair on the head.

Those days, the only members of the male species that voluntarily underwent procedures like laser hair removal for men, were athletes whose [...] Continue Reading…

Reducing & Removing Cellulite

My cellulite has been a plague on my miniskirt- and short-shorts-wearing habits since I gave birth to my third child and starting pigging out on every junk food in site.

While I haven’t exactly made it my life’s mission, finding effective ways of removing cellulite has become something of a preoccupation of mine. Even though there are a lot of products that claim to be completely effective at reducing cellulite, I haven’t really found anything that can cheaply and [...] Continue Reading…

Waterproof Mascara – Is It Really Better?

Mascara is makeup for the eyelashes. It can thicken, define, lengthen, or even change the color of a person’s eyelashes. It can really open up a person’s eyes, instantly making them look less tired and more glam.

One of the problems with a lot of kinds of mascara though, is that when it gets wet, it tends to come off and run. This means that if you’re wearing black mascara, watching a sad movie can get you couple of [...] Continue Reading…

Cosmeceuticals & You

I like keeping my skin healthy, so I try and keep my eye out for products that could slow down or prevent skin aging and help me deal with skin problems like acne flare-ups or chronic dryness.

Unsurprisingly, most of the products I end up finding usually fall under a relatively new category of skin products called “cosmeceuticals.”
This is a pretty obvious thing to mention, but I really just have to put it out there, in case anyone misses [...] Continue Reading…

Chlorine Damaged Hair Treatment

As humans, our hair is generally made from the same kind of stuff as our nails. You might think that, given this, the term “tough as nails” could apply to your hair, but actually, hair can be pretty fragile. Too much wind, too much sun, too much washing, and too much styling, not enough washing, and not enough brushing are just examples of ways that hair can get damaged. Chlorine damaged hair is one of the worst kinds of [...] Continue Reading…

Artificial Eyebrows When You Have No Eyebrows

People with no eyebrows can often feel like their faces don’t look complete, and even though there are a lot of different reasons for people not to have eyebrows, luckily there are also a lot of different options to take if you should happen to lose your eyebrows. You could fill in your eyebrows using makeup or tattoos, or you could opt to get artificial eyebrows.

How Do People Lose Their eyebrows?

The cause for a person losing their eyebrows [...] Continue Reading…

Acupuncture Face Lift

So you’ve had a few birthdays behind you, and your years are starting to show. Your face’s battle with gravity has begun to turn, and your skin just isn’t what it used to be anymore.

This isn’t an unfamiliar story. Everybody ages, and everybody’s skin will eventually grow saggier and less elastic as time goes by. Unless there’s some odd, ageless genetic freak out there that doesn’t have –or won’t ever encounter- this particular fact of life, everyone goes [...] Continue Reading…

Permanent Laser Hair Removal

Okay, you guys are totally going to think I’m weird when I admit this… When I think “laser,” the first thing that enters my mind is “laser gun.” Which would then usually lead up to “laser gunfight,” which would then eventually become “epic interstellar battle set in the Thirtieth Century.”

I know that most people’s thought-trains don’t travel in those –I’ll admit- somewhat off-the-beaten-track directions, but you’ll have to admit, a thirtieth century interstellar laser war sounds pretty cool. [...] Continue Reading…

Finding A Good Rhinoplasty Doctor

All of us are born looking a certain way. Some of us are genetically blessed with the facial symmetry of Botticelli cherubs, some of us are not so lucky. Of course, just because a person doesn’t quite have a perfect face doesn’t necessarily mean that they can’t be happy with their looks.

I’m certainly no vision of beauty myself, but I like my face just fine. In fact, I love my face. It’s mine, and I wouldn’t change a [...] Continue Reading…
