Brits becoming more interested in cosmetic surgery than Americans

Brits becoming more interested in cosmetic surgery than Americans - Plastic surgery use to be solely for the rich and famous in Hollywood. Now, however, it’s clearly available to everyone – and the people who are most interested in going under the knife are actually British. https://www.belvedereclinic.co.uk/blog/2018/11/23/brits-becoming-more-interested-in-cosmetic-surgery-than-americans/

Celebrities who have been open about their plastic surgery

WE ALWAYS FIND IT REFRESHING WHEN CELEBRITIES ARE OPEN ABOUT THEIR CHOICE TO HAVE PLASTIC SURGERY. SO, WE THOUGHT WE WOULD TAKE A LOOK AT SOME CELEBS THAT HAVE BEEN OPEN ABOUT THE TREATMENTS THEY HAVE HAD:

Britney Spears

The princess of pop has no problem admitting she has lip injections, and don’t they look great?

Tyra Banks

The America’s Next Top Model host admitted to having a nose job. She said she does not feel comfortable when females who are naturally beautiful judge people who get surgery or take steps to enhance their appearance.

Kelly Rowland

The Destiny’s Child star wanted to get breast implants from the age of 18. However, she was advised by Beyonce’s mum and her own mum to really consider it first. She did exactly that, and 10 years later she went ahead with the procedure.

Kris Jenner

There’s nothing like a wedding for a bit of pampering, right? Kris Jenner certainly thinks so. The famous mum had a facelift before her daughter Kim’s second wedding.

Gwyneth Paltrow

Having already had facial fillers, Gwyneth Paltrow shared her views on plastic surgery with Harper’s Bazaar, stating that she would be willing to try anything.

Chrissy Teigen

Known as being open and honest, especially on social media, it probably comes as no surprise that Chrissy Teigen has spoken about her plastic surgery. The supermodel admitted to having armpit liposuction done.

Lisa Kudrow

Better known as Phoebe from Friends, Lisa had rhinoplasty when she was 16 years old. She said the procedure was life-changing, describing it as a “good, good, good change.”

Kourtney Kardashian

Finally, the oldest Kardashian sister has had breast implants. In 2010, she said it’s not a secret and she couldn’t care less. We love her attitude!

So there you have it: some celebs that have had plastic surgery and been open about it. Were you surprised to see any of the celebs on this list? If you are interested in any type of plastic or cosmetic surgery, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the Belvedere Clinic.

Is Iggy Azalea about to open up about more plastic surgery?

IT WAS JUST THREE YEARS AGO WHEN IGGY AZALEA FIRST SPOKE ABOUT HAVING PLASTIC SURGERY – AT THE SAME TIME INSISTING THAT SHE WASN’T INTO ‘SECRET-KEEPING’.

During a revealing interview with Vogue in 2015, she spoke freely about the breast augmentation she’d had earlier in the year. She told the publication:

“I did change something: Four months ago, I got bigger boobs! I’d thought about it my entire life.” Adding that she was happy to let the world know after initially keeping it on the down-low, she continued: “But then, I decided I wasn’t into secret-keeping.”

So, does this mean Iggy’s next big confession is right around the corner? According to leading plastic surgeons in the US, the rapper is likely to have had another series of operations to alter and improve her appearance. This comes after she shared a selfie with her millions of fans on Instagram. Upon seeing the image, Dr. Daniel Barrett told HollywoodLife: “Iggy Azalea has been open about her breast augmentation procedure, however, it appears there is a lot more to her plastic surgery procedures.”

The medical professional – in awe of Iggy’s stunning new appearance – then added: “Recent photos show fuller lips, heightened brows and a sculpted face. Her jawline appears slimmer and her nose smaller.” He then went on to speculate that the starlet had undergone a series of lifts and fillers.

Of course, Iggy might just be waiting for the right platform to reveal what she’s had done. After all, this was certainly the case when she opened up about having a nose job – and in the process sent a powerful message to young girls – during an interview with Seventeen magazine in 2015. She told the publication: “I’m not denying it. Denying it is lame. I don’t think you should be ashamed if you made a change to yourself, which is why I’ve spoken about the changes I’ve made, like with my breasts.”

Has Iggy inspired you?

While you wait anxiously for Iggy to talk about the procedures that she’s had done, it could be a great opportunity for you to look into plastic surgery for yourself. If there’s a cosmetic treatment you’re interested in, be sure to get in touch with Belvedere.

One in four adults considering plastic surgery in the next 12 months

THERE LOOKS SET TO BE A SUDDEN RUSH FOR PLASTIC SURGERY PROCEDURES IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS.

This is following a survey in which RealSelf determined that more than a quarter of adults are now considering a form of cosmetic treatment in the next year. According to the findings, 24% of those quizzed in a survey admitted that they were contemplating a surgical procedure in the near future. Meanwhile, 34% were open to the idea of a non-surgical procedure.

When RealSelf broke down their findings into demographics, the team discovered that it’s the younger generation who are most willing to go under the knife. In fact, adults below the age of 45 were found to be more than twice as likely to undergo some form of treatment over the course of the next 365 days.

Dr. Lara Devgan, Chief Medical Officer at RealSelf, said that the findings are part of a larger trend in which those below the age of 45 are happier to explore any measures which will reverse the signs of ageing. She explained: “For millennials in particular, cosmetic treatments have become part of a larger self-care routine. Just as they are more aware of skin health and the importance of sunscreen, they too are open to exploring treatments that reverse signs of ageing or optimise facial features.”

She added: “In many ways, younger adults are shifting the way society views cosmetic procedures – they are more open to the idea that beauty is individualised and customisable, and that cosmetic interventions represent their personal choices about their own bodies for their own confidence.”

So what are the most preferred surgical procedures amongst those quizzed in the survey? The ever-populartummy tuck topped the list with 32% of people listing it as their desired operation. Liposuction came in a close second, with 26% of people admitting it was on their mind. The top five was rounded off with eyelid surgery, neck lifts and boob jobs.

Where do you fall?

It’s more than possible that you’re one of the many people who are quickly coming around to the idea of plastic surgery. If this is the case, then don’t wait to find out all the information you need by getting in touch with Belvedere today.

Cardi B outlines plans for liposuction

THERE ARE SOME CELEBRITIES WHO LIKE TO KEEP HUSH ABOUT THEIR PLANS FOR PLASTIC SURGERY – AND THEN THERE IS CARDI B.

The famously outspoken rapper has just reminded her fans that she’s a big fan of going under the knife in a new video shared on Instagram. In the clip, Cardi – real name Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar – outlines that she’s now set her sights on undergoing liposuction. The 25-year-old revealed that she’s interested in the procedure because she’s used to having ‘a real tight stomach’.

In the video, Cardi said: “I still got, like, a lot of love handles right here. They’re not much, but it’s, like, you know, I’m used to having, like, a real tight stomach.” She then added: “But it’s like I might just get a little lipo.”

According to the singer, liposuction is the answer that she’s been looking for because it means she can get her stomach ‘back how it used to be’ while still juggling her busy lifestyle. Cardi continued: “I feel like I can work out and my stomach will be back how it used to be. But I really don’t have time to work out. I never been the type to work out. I never stepped a foot in the gym.”

This isn’t the first instance where Cardi has spoken freely in favour of cosmetic surgery. In fact, the singer – who’s had lip fillers to her achieve her stunning pout – previously revealed that she’d had a boob job to enhance her assets. This operation, Cardi once admitted, came after years of disliking her breasts. Speaking candidly about her new 34DD chest, Cardi once told VladTV that she was ‘never comfortable with [her] boobs’ before the operation. She’s since hinted that she’ll have the cosmetic procedure again in future.

Will you follow Cardi’s lead?

Cardi B’s openness could very well inspire other people to take advantage of the plastic surgery procedures on offer to them. If you’re amongst these people, you should know that you can get all the information you need – whether it’s on liposuction or another treatment – by getting in touch with Belvedere.

The Belvedere Clinic explore 5 things you need to know before having a boob job

BREAST ENLARGEMENT IS NOW THE MOST COMMON COSMETIC SURGERY PROCEDURE CARRIED OUT IN THE UK.

Women can easily get their desired shape and size of breasts, something that was not always achievable decades ago. If you are considering having breast enlargement surgery, then you need to be aware of the facts and realities of having this procedure.

BELOW WE EXPLORE 5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE HAVING A BOOB JOB.

1. They will feel like normal breasts

Many women worry about what their breasts will feel like after surgery. The good news is that although they will feel slightly heavier, due to the implant, they will feel like natural breasts.

2. Test the new implant

You can now try your new implant before you go ahead with surgery. Many clinics now offer breast augmentation computer software that shows you exactly what your new breasts will look like. You’ll also be able to hold and feel the implant, with many clinics providing special bras.

3. Set realistic goals

You may have always dreamed of having a double E cup, but is this the right choice for you? You need to set realistic goals and discuss all options with your cosmetic surgeon. Your chosen breast size needs to work with your body shape, weight and with any health issues.

4. Do your homework, not every cosmetic surgeon is the same

We can’t stress this point enough. Always do your homework when searching for a cosmetic surgeon to perform breast enlargement surgery. Do your research, check out their qualifications and ask for examples of previous work. A respected and trusted clinic will always show your their work and credentials.

5. Breast enlargement and breastfeeding

This is a real concern for women who wish to breastfeed their baby. This very much depends upon where the incision is made, but this can be discussed with your surgeon. Incisions made under the arm and ‘crease’ incisions usually make breastfeeding possible. Incisions near the nipple are more problematic.

People urged to consult with plastic surgeons rather than watch videos online

There are many people who just know that they want to have cosmetic surgery. Then, of course, there are those who are still contemplating the idea of going under the knife. Whichever category a person falls into,

A LEADING PLASTIC SURGEON IS NOW ADVISING YOU TO STEER CLEAR OF ONLINE VIDEOS AND INSTEAD GET ALL THE FACTS YOU NEED FROM THE PROFESSIONALS.

Dr. Boris Paskhover, who works for Rutgers New Jersey Medical School in Newark, believes too many of his patients are being influenced by the misleading videos available on sites like YouTube. He’s now urging anyone who’s watched these clips to consult an actual surgeon rather than make their mind up solely on what they’ve seen online. He told Reuters Health: “I tell my patients that 50% of what’s online – YouTube or otherwise – is wrong, and 49% is correct but completely irrelevant to your particular situation.”

Dr. Paskhover wanted to be clear that he isn’t deterring patients from reading up on the procedure they’re interested in, but more so wanted to ensure that all patients eventually found out the full facts by getting in touch with a qualified plastic surgeon. He added: “By all means, educate yourself, but what’s on your monitor shouldn’t take on the power of authority. When it comes down to it, have a great relationship with your doctor and let your doctor guide your care.”

The advice comes in light of the growing number of videos showing cosmetic surgery on YouTube. While these videos are easy to find, they might give a person the wrong idea about an operation – whether for better or worse – when they’re in the process of making up their mind about whether it’s for them. It seems that millions are falling into this trap, with the top 10 YouTube results for ‘nose job’ currently totalling more than 56m views.

Get the facts

If you’re weighing up whether to have plastic surgery, you can find out all the information you need by Booking a consultation with the Belvedere Clinic. You’ll then be able to make a more enlightened decision before choosing to undergo your dream procedure.
