Thighlighting: a new trend in celebrity cosmetic surgery.

IT’S OFTEN CELEBRITIES WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR STARTING NEW COSMETIC SURGERY TRENDS – AND THE LATEST BIG TREND IS NO DIFFERENT.

THANKS TO STARS LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT, BELLA HADID, KENDALL JENNER AND JENNIFER LOPEZ, WE’RE NOW SEEING A RISE IN THE POPULARITY OF “THIGHLIGHTING”.

Thighlighting is essentially a complete makeover for the leg: a series of procedures that could include liposuction using micro power assisted or vaser techniques, a thigh lift, calf implants, inner thigh contouring or outer thigh contouring – or a combination of any of these, depending on the results the individual is looking for. Various plastic surgeons from the US to the UK have reported an increase in women looking for these types of procedure, with women becoming increasingly concerned about the appearance of their thighs, and looking for a surgical solution.

The whole procedure generally takes no more than a few hours, with those who choose to undergo thighlighting generally able to go home on the same day as the surgery takes place.

The results of the thighlighting surgery bring both physical and psychological benefits. It can help to make the thighs look longer than they are, and streamline a woman’s overall appearance, as well as improving the proportions of the body and giving a brand new look to the contours of the leg. Psychologically, the procedure can also boost a woman’s confidence, ensuring that she both looks and feels comfortable in public.

Thighlighting became so popular as a result of the body-hugging dresses that celebrities such as Kendall Jenner and Taylor Swift are often seen wearing at public events, with high splits exposing a long expanse of thigh. Recent fashion trends have also contributed to the popularity of the procedure, with more and more current catwalk fashions including either dresses that expose the thighs, or figure-hugging outfits, both of which require a great deal of confidence to wear.

The cost of thighlighting can vary, and it all depends on the extent of the work that each individual would like to be done. As a combination of multiple different procedures, it’s a cosmetic surgery that can be tailored exactly to individual needs. It’s just the latest in a number of cosmetic surgery trends that are driven by celebrities… who knows what the next will be?

Meghan Markle's nose tops cosmetic surgery lists

Every plastic surgeon in London knows that requests to look like celebrities are commonplace, and, up till now, it’s been lip fillers and buttock enhancements that have been some of the most popular, thanks to the Kardashians.

In November 2017, though, Prince Harry announced his engagement to girlfriend Meghan Markle, and we’re finding that, as a result, the Kardashians are being knocked off the top spot in favour of the new soon-to-be royal.

It’s not the first time that a royal wedding has led to a shift in trends, though: after William and Kate’s wedding, the number of requests for a butt lifts surged, thanks to footage of Pippa Middleton on the day.

AND NOW IT’S MEGHAN MARKLE’S TURN, WITH HER NOSE PROVING A HIT WITH WOMEN UP AND DOWN THE COUNTRY.

The Suits actress’ nose is the inspiration behind a huge number of current rhinoplasty requests, thanks to its straight profile and defined tip, which can only be seen when looking at her sideways on. It may not be a nose that’s as ‘perfect’ as other celebrities who have inspired rhinoplasty trends in the past (the likes of Jessica Alba, Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson all have noses that have been requested by huge numbers of rhinoplasty patients), but it’s a nose that has character, and one that could well signal a shift in cosmetic surgery trends.

For many, cosmetic surgery isn’t about going under the knife to look perfect, it’s simply about creating a look with which the patient is happy. Meghan Markle’s nose veers more towards the girl next door look than, for example, the perfection of the Kardashians’ features, which have been popular for so long.

Of course, it’s not just Markle’s nose that’s proving popular: the sharpness of her jawline and the profile of her cheekbones are also being more widely requested from plastic surgeons. While the royal family are loved by some and loathed by others, one thing is definitely clear: when it comes to the way they look, they’re setting trends in the worlds of fashion, hair, beauty and cosmetic surgery alike.

Is plastic surgery responsible for people quitting smoking?

It’s now estimated that around 15% of people smoke in the UK. This figure, of course, has fallen rapidly over the years thanks to measures such as the smoking ban and the increased taxation on cigarettes. But could it be that there’s another reason why more and more people are choosing to quit?

A NEW STUDY HAS FOUND THAT COSMETIC SURGERY IS ONE OF THE DRIVING FORCES BEHIND PEOPLE GIVING UP CIGARETTES.

The research – carried out by the University of British Columbia in Vancouver – found that 40% of patients who had undergone cosmetic surgery no longer smoked on a daily basis following the procedure. Meanwhile, 70% of those surveyed admitted to cutting down on smoking following pre and post-surgery consultations with their doctor.

It’s not unusual for patients to be asked to refrain from smoking both before and after undergoing cosmetic surgery. This is because the use of cigarettes can slow down a person’s immune system and restrict the flow of blood in their blood vessels – both of which can lead to delayed or compromised recovery following an operation. In particular, continuing smoking can be extremely detrimental for those who have tummy tucks, facelifts or breast lifts (amongst other procedures).

Dr Aaron Van Slyke – a lead author in the study – was personally unsurprised by the results of the research. Instead, he felt the survey just further outlined how much people are interested in improving their lifestyle when they decide to go under the knife.

Reflecting on the results, he commented: “This is consistent with previous research showing patients who seek to obtain cosmetic surgery are more motivated to sustain positive lifestyle changes.” He added: “The dialogue between plastic surgeon and patient during the cosmetic surgery consultation serves as a unique moment to provide targeted smoking cessation counselling that may persist well beyond the surgical interaction.”

PLASTIC SURGERY CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE

WHILE IT’S PROMISING THAT RESEARCH SHOWS PLASTIC SURGERY CAN HELP PATIENTS QUIT SMOKING, THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER BENEFITS ASSOCIATED WITH GOING UNDER THE KNIFE AND IMPROVING YOUR APPEARANCE – SUCH AS INCREASED SELF-CONFIDENCE. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON CHOOSING A COSMETIC PROCEDURE THAT’S RIGHT FOR YOU, GET IN TOUCH WITH THE BELVEDERE CLINIC.

Rebekah Vardy reveals boob job plans during I'm A Celeb

REBEKAH VARDY WAS WATCHED BY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON A NIGHTLY BASIS AFTER HER APPEARANCE ON THIS YEAR’S I’M A CELEBRITY… GET ME OUT OF HERE.

Between Bushtucker Trials and scantily-clad showers, the WAG has been telling her fellow campmates how she plans to go under the knife when the show is over and done with. In particular, she’s set her sights on a second boob job. During a recent episode on ITV, Rebekah told her fellow campmates: “I am going to get them redone in January next year. Amazing.”

The public revelation shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to those who know a bit about Rebekah. After all, the 35-year-old has previously admitted to having a breast enhancement as well as Botox. When quizzed about having cosmetic surgery during an interview with Mail Online in 2016, the footballer’s wife said: “I’ve had a boob job, too. I can’t bear it when women lie about this stuff. I go in the sun and I’ve hardly got any wrinkles. It’s not nature, it’s Botox.”

Rebekah won’t be the first person to have cosmetic surgery after leaving the Jungle. Last year’s winner Scarlett Moffatt has previously had lip fillers and Botox. Scarlett has also refused to rule out a breast reduction should she decide one is necessary in the future. Earlier this year, she told Heat magazine: “They’re a G-cup now, and I’d love them to be a D-cup. I definitely think I’ll do it in the next couple of years, but I would like to try to lose a bit of weight first, to see if they go down naturally.”

Meanwhile, 2015’s victor Vicky Pattison also had a boob job just like Rebekah. Speaking about the decision before joining the show, Geordie Shore star Vicky told Now! magazine: “I thought about the boobs for 10 months.” She added: “It was the only option for me to be body confident, and I’m pleased I did it.”

Are you inspired?

Although Rebekah won’t be this year’s Queen of the Jungle after her elimination from the show, it seems a foregone conclusion that she’ll be treating herself to a boob job. If you’re inspired to follow in her footsteps – or if you fancy any other procedure – get in touch with the Belvedere Clinic for information.

Why do people get plastic surgery? The answer has been revealed

PLASTIC SURGERY APPEALS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE FOR A WHOLE VARIETY OF REASONS.

THIS CAN BE ANYTHING – FROM WANTING TO IMPROVE THEIR CAREER PROSPECTS TO SIMPLY WANTING TO TRY SOMETHING NEW. HOWEVER, A NEW SURVEY HAS PINPOINTED THE MAIN REASON WHY PATIENTS DECIDE TO UNDERGO A COSMETIC PROCEDURE.

The answer? One word: confidence. According to research carried out by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery – who offer everything from liposuction to hair transplants – patients are most interested in boosting their self-esteem when they go under the knife.

While the majority of those quizzed revealed that they first considered a form of cosmetic treatment to ‘feel more confident’, others also confessed that they were urged to improve their appearance to ‘feel more attractive’ and to ‘look as young as I feel or better for my age’. Mirroring similar surveys carried out around the globe, the research also confirmed that more people than ever before are open to the idea of cosmetic surgery in 2017. In fact, seven out of 10 people are now interested in a procedure – twice as many as in 2013.

The results, while eye-opening, might not come as that much of a surprise to those people who closely follow pop culture. After all, numerous celebrities have previously admitted to going under the knife with the intention of experiencing a new level of confidence. Just take Kaley Cuoco as an example. The Big Bang Theory star has gone under the knife on multiple occasions – having had everything from a boob job to lines removed from her neck.

Just last year the actress stood up for herself and declared the work had done wonders for her self-esteem. In a candid interview, she proudly told Women’s Health: “I don’t think you should do it for a man or anyone else, but if it makes you feel confident, that’s amazing.”

It’s time to boost your confidence!

You can expect to feel much better about yourself after undergoing plastic surgery. This newfound confidence will hopefully improve both your personal and professional life. For more information on a procedure that will boost your self-esteem, get in touch with the Belvedere and explore your options.

Botox fan Elaine Paige won’t rule out more cosmetic surgery - At the age of 68.

THERE AREN’T MANY PEOPLE AS REVERED IN THEIR INDUSTRY AS ELAINE PAIGE.

THE SINGER HAS SEEMINGLY DONE IT ALL IN HER CAREER – FROM TOPPING THE CHARTS TO PERFORMING ON BROADWAY AND THE WEST END. WHILE ELAINE’S VOICE IS MUSIC TO PEOPLE’S EARS, IT MUST BE SAID THAT HER FACE IS STILL RATHER EASY ON PEOPLE’S EYES, EVEN AT THE AGE OF 68. THIS, SHE WILL PROUDLY ADMIT, IS PARTLY DUE TO THE RESULTS OF BOTOX.

Elaine has said she relies on the wrinkle-removing procedure in the past, and she has recently confirmed once again that it’s been the solution to eliminating the lines around her eyes and has shaved the years off her appearance. In a new interview with the Daily Post, she said: “Have I had any work done? Well, that’s a very personal question! But, no, I get a few lines around my eyes so the closest thing to work I get is Botox once in a while.”

While Elaine’s not previously gone under the knife, she certainly won’t rule out the possibility. In fact, she’s explained that she can foresee a time when plastic surgery will be the solution to maintaining her youth. She added: “There will come a time when I’ll notice enough to decide whether I’m going to need to get something more drastic done. But I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.”

The West End star has previously made similar comments, even going so far as to pinpoint a necklift as a procedure that she’s been eyeing up. Earlier this year, she told the Mirror: “I’m tempted as it’s all falling down. I’m a bit of a scaredy-cat, so I’m not sure if I’ll go through with it, but if I suddenly look 10 years younger, you’ll know I have.”

You have options, too

It would seem that Elaine is moving closer and closer to undergoing a cosmetic procedure. Meanwhile, there’s no need to put off your choice of procedure if you’ve already made up your mind about which one is for you. For more information about cosmetic surgery, get in touch with the Belvedere today.

Can cosmetic surgery improve your job prospects? Brits think so!

THERE ARE MANY AMAZING BENEFITS LINKED TO UNDERGOING PLASTIC SURGERY.

For instance, there’s the likelihood that a procedure – such as liposuction or a nose job – can boost a person’s self-esteem and help them achieve new levels of confidence. However, it would seem that a lot of people now believe that the advantages stretch much further than someone’s personal life.

BEAUTY BIAS IN THE WORKPLACE

According to a survey conducted by the Cosmetic Surgery Solicitors, 20% of people who consider going under the knife believe that it will improve their job prospects. The research found that a massive 72% think that there is ‘beauty bias’ in the workplace, while 28% of those surveyed feel that their good looks play a factor in them being treated more positively at work.

The 2017 report echoes similar findings from the past decade. In 2011 – just a few short years after the global financial crisis – Sky television aired a show called My Face My Body. This broadcast determined that 57% of men had begun to turn to procedures such as lip fillers and Botox in order to gain an advantage over others in the job market. At the time, presenter Stephen Handisides interviewed Dr Bob Khanna, who said: “Men are even happy talking about it. In this difficult economic climate people will look to get that extra edge on colleagues and a cosmetic treatment can give you that.”

COSMETIC SURGERY IS BECOMING MORE WIDELY ACCEPTED

This trend towards people desiring to look young and beautiful for work isn’t actually anything new. While it’s clearly becoming more widely accepted in the general public, actors and actresses have actually been having work done for years in order to gain roles and maintain their standing in Hollywood. In fact, in 2015, soap star Claire King admitted that she had a facelift to stay in favour with casting directors. After the operation, she told Closer magazine: “I’ve been working pretty much non-stop ever since.”

WILL COSMETIC SURGERY HELP YOU?

People undergo cosmetic work for numerous reasons – and you don’t need to explain your reasons to anyone else should you not want to. Once you’ve got an idea of what procedure you want, you can get all the information you need by getting in touch with the Belvedere Clinic.

Sharon Osbourne's attitude towards cosmetic surgery is infectious

SHARON OSBOURNE HAS NEVER BEEN ONE TO KEEP HUSH WHEN IT COMES TO HER HISTORY OF PLASTIC SURGERY.

Now, the X Factor judge – who’s undergone numerous cosmetic procedures during her career – has insisted that every one of the operations was done to benefit herself and herself only. When quizzed about whether she was urged to alter her appearance to attract male attention, she told Event magazine: “I do this for myself. I spent years looking like an Oompa Loompa. I am not doing it to get a man.”

In the past, Sharon has confessed to undergoing a facelift, a breast reduction and a tummy tuck – amongst many other procedures. In fact, she once jokingly told The Sun: “There’s not much I haven’t had tweaked, stretched, peeled, lasered, veneered, enhanced or removed altogether.”

It would seem that Sharon’s attitude towards cosmetic surgery is infectious. After all, husband Ozzy Osbourne has also been under the knife because he was unhappy with his face. In 2005, he told Reveal: “It boosted my confidence no end. I’ve had a face job and a new nose.”

The rocker later promoted cosmetic surgery during an interview with Glamour magazine. He explained: “My philosophy is that if, when you look in the mirror, all you can see is the double chin or the big nose, and it makes your life easier to have them cut off, do it.”

Now, Grace Davies – one of Sharon’s acts on X Factor – looks to have taken inspiration from her mentor. Nearing closer and closer to a record deal, the talent show star is already weighing up the positives of pumping up her pout and mending some damage caused by anaemia. Last month, Grace told OK! magazine:“I would get lip fillers and I would definitely get a hair transplant. I had anemia and was really stressed at college and lost my eyebrows, eyelashes and some of my hair, which hasn’t grown back in places.”

Have Sharon’s words hit home?

If like Sharon you’re ready to make a change, then there’s no better person to do it for than yourself. For information on finding a procedure that’s perfect for you, get in touch with Belvedere Clinic .

Kim Kardashian's cosmetic surgeries

KNOWN AS ONE OF THE WORLD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN AND A HUGELY SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS WOMAN – KIM KARDASHIAN

has been open throughout her career in the spotlight about her plastic surgeries and the cosmetic procedures she’s undergone to enhance her look. With a life lived constantly in the spotlight, it’s no surprise she’s spent so much time and money investing in her physical appearance, with stunning results.

BELOW WE’VE LOOKED AT HER COSMETIC SURGERIES FROM THE LAST DECADE.

THAT BUM

Kim Kardashian’s bum is the stuff of legend, inspiring people the world over to take to the gym, squatting huge weights, or opting for cosmetic procedures to achieve an incredible curve to their buttocks. In Keeping up with the Kardashians, Kim went as far as having an x ray to prove she’d never had a butt implants, but with other cosmetic procedures, including fat transfer deposits or just a simple thigh and buttock lift, available, the chances are she enhanced her natural figure using other cosmetic enhancements. The shape and size of her buttocks have grown considerably throughout her career and been a constant source of fascination from the media, suggesting it’s been well worth her investment.

RHINOPLASTY

Whilst Kim puts her new nose shape down to expert contouring, it’s hughly likely she’s undergone a rhinoplasty. Looking at it with an expert opinion, it appears she’s had the bridge of her nose straightened out and slimmed down – a procedure known as a septo rhinoplasty. She’s also had an alar base reduction, which defines the tip of her nose. Whilst she works with some of the best make up artists in the world, the overall structure appears to have changed more dramatically than anything that could be achieved from make up, giving Kim a more symmetrical appearance to her face.

LIPOSUCTION

Kim’s dramatic weight gain and then loss with daughter North suggests she’s undergone liposuction to slim down and increase the tiny appearance of her waist. Usually, patients spend up to six weeks after the procedure avoiding physical exertion and wearing a compression garment, which would’ve been perfect timing for Kim whilst resting post birth.

Celebrities strive for the perfect pout

Being a celebrity involves a lot of scrutiny under the media’s eye. Celebrities often see themselves plastered over the television, newspapers and Internet on a daily basis. For some celebrities, being constantly in the media prompts them to take the opportunity to enhance their looks.

LIP FILLERS ARE GROWING DRAMATICALLY POPULAR IN THE UK; AFTER ALL, WHO DOESN’T CRAVE THAT PERFECT POUT?

Twenty-four-year-old Megan McKenna recently had lip fillers done live on Snapchat and frequently shows off her plump pout to her Instagram followers. She has made herself a household name starring in many reality TV shows and prides herself on her immaculate appearance.

Another celebrity who has enhanced their lips to boost their self-esteem is Lateysha Grace. The MTV personality is extremely open about her surgery. She states, “I’m constantly looking at myself in the mirror and thinking, oh I want this bigger.” Lateysha is now able to flaunt her body and be confident in her own skin, regularly posting fearless body-positive photos online.

Charlotte Crosby is no stranger to getting lip fillers, and frequently jokes, “I was getting mine done way before Kylie Jenner!” Charlotte’s frequent selfies show her voluminous lips, and you can just see how confident she is in herself after being plumped up. Before, she states that she “had the thinnest top lip” but that she now “feels so much more confident.”

Another stunning starlet who praises lip fillers is Katie Price. She tells fans that she “loves them!”. Sharing the video of herself receiving injections into her pout on Loose Women, it’s clear to see that Katie hasn’t shied away from her love of surgery and regularly receives praise from fans on her attitude to enhancing herself physically.

If you’re having thoughts about getting your lips plumped up, take the opportunity to research how lip fillers will enhance your confidence and self-esteem, and get in touch with the team at the Belvedere. Lip fillers have the possibility to change your life for the better – some individuals are self-conscious about their image and require an enhanced appearance or just natural fullness in their lips. Take the plunge and get yourself a perfect pout!

So, what cosmetic surgery has Jane Fonda had done?

HOLLYWOOD LEGEND JANE FONDA ISN’T ONE TO SHY AWAY FROM THE 

SUBJECT OF PLastic SURGERY.

However, the whole world is once again wondering exactly what the actress has had done following her recent appearance on NBC’s Today. During an interview alongside Robert Redford, Jane was quizzed by host Megyn Kelly about her history of plastic surgery.

Megyn asked: “You’ve been an example to everyone in how to age beautifully, and with strength. You’ve admitted you’ve had work done, which I think is to your credit.”

To which Jane responded: “We really want to talk about that right now?”

It seemed like Jane was sending the message that she was embarrassed about her history of going under the knife. In reality, the 79-year-old doesn’t tend to shy away from discussing the work she’s had done.

Talking about the awkward interview, Jane later told Entertainment Tonight: “I have had cosmetic surgery and I’ve talked about it. But it just seemed like the wrong time and place to raise that question.”

Back in 2011, Jane revealed that she was urged to undergo work after she began to dread looking in the mirror. She told Good Housekeeping: “I didn’t think that I would want to have anything done but it actually got to the point where I would startle myself when I saw my reflection in the mirror.” She added: “I felt so great after a good night’s sleep, and suddenly I’d look at a reflection of myself and didn’t look like I felt.”

In 2015, the actress would add that all the work had ‘bought her a decade’ during an interview with The Guardian.

Jane is believed to have undergone a variety of plastic surgery during her storied movie career. In particular, many surgeons – including Miami-based Dr. Michael Salzhauer – have said it’s likely that she’s undergone multiplefacelifts. Jane is also thought to have had a neck lift, a brow lift, a nose job and Botox.

FOLLOW JANE’S LEAD

WHETHER YOU CHOOSE TO KEEP HUSH OR SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS, EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO FOLLOW JANE’S LEAD AND TRY PLASTIC SURGERY SHOULD THEY FANCY. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON WHICH PROCEDURE MIGHT BE FOR YOU, GET IN TOUCH WITH THE BELVEDERE CLINIC.

Reality TV and the rise of plastic surgery

Katie Price well known for plastic surgery

Getting a nose job in society these days is becoming as normal as eating a cooked dinner. Stars everywhere are striving for perfection and undergoing procedures to enhance their looks. Reality TV stars in particular, such as Charlotte Crosby, Vicky Pattinson and Ferne McCann, have all undergone rhinoplasty, breast enlargements,liposuction and body reshaping.

STARS WHO PREVIOUSLY HAVEN’T BEEN HAPPY WITH THEIR FEATURES HAVE OPTED FOR A CHANGE AND IN EACH CASE THEY HAVE PROMOTED THEIR FANTASTIC RESULTS.

BUT WHY HAVE THEY GONE TO SUCH LENGTHS TO ALTER THEIR APPEARANCE?

LOOKING AND FEELING GREAT

When talking about her surgeries, Charlotte Crosby said ‘you only live once’ and she prides herself on her plump lips and chiselled nose. Alternatively, while Ferne McCann now oozes confidence being snapped by the paparazzi, this wasn’t always the case. In an interview prior to her rhinoplasty, she broke down and said: “I was teased in school about my nose and I thought it was taking over my face.”

Sallie Axl has also dramatically transformed her appearance, showing her 117k Instagram followers her journey. She was quoted saying: “I know beauty comes from within but I know this is going to make me feel great!” Sallie has been open about her cosmetic procedures, live streaming her nose job and breast uplift from a hotel room.

CHASING THE PERFECT POUT

Lip fillers have also become extremely popular in the media, and the chase to get a perfect plump pout has competition from many stars. Megan McKenna, Katie Price, Holly Hagan and Lauren Goodger have all shown their improved pouts on social media and regularly stream their procedures on Snapchat.

While some reality TV stars opt for a more softer, less dramatic outcome, others prefer to go bigger and rounder. There’s no denying these procedures have changed these reality TV stars lives, and they don’t shy away from promoting and advertising their new cosmetically enhanced looks and style.

GREATER SELF-ESTEEM AND CONFIDENCE

Cosmetic surgery has allowed these stars to gain greater self-esteem and confidence about their bodies. Not only do they feel like they have improved their physical looks, but they promote a positive self-image and inform individuals that if you want surgery you should just go for it!

Facts about arm lift surgery

IF YOU HAVE EXCESSIVE SKIN ON THE UNDERNEATH OF YOUR ARMS IT CAN LEAVE YOU FEELING UNCOMFORTABLE, SELF-CONSCIOUS AND AFFECT YOUR CONFIDENCE WHEN WEARING CERTAIN ITEMS.

Many people find that even with a healthy lifestyle this loose skin can show as skin loses its elasticity through ageing. Loose underarm skin can also be caused by weight loss, leaving skin looking baggy and stretched.

The good news is there’s a simple, straightforward procedure which can be undertaken to help remove an excess of loose skin – it’s a process called brachioplasty.

Below we’ve highlighted some key facts about undergoing arm lift surgery.

WHAT CAN THE PROCEDURE HELP WITH?

Brachioplasty surgery helps to get rid of excess skin underneath the arm which sags, often between the elbow and the armpit. It’s used to treat both men and women who suffer from loose skin under the arms.

HOW DOES THE PROCEDURE WORK?

During the procedure, you’ll be under anaesthetic and the surgeon will work to remove fat from the inner back area of your arm. This could also include some elliptical skin from the very top of the arm near the armpit if there is a lot of loose skin there too.

RECOVERY

The usual recovery time for the procedure is a few days of rest before you can resume lightweight activity. The procedure itself lasts for 2-3 hours, depending on the amount of skin to be removed, and you will be given a compression bandage after your operation to minimise swelling to the area. It generally takes between 3 and 4 weeks before you’re able to resume all activity including strenuous lifting to give your arms a full chance to recover and heal.

There can be scarring left after the procedure, but it is kept to a minimum by a trained surgeon performing the operation. If you’re interested in speaking to one of our expert staff about undergoing an operation to lift the skin around your arm area, then contact us today on 020 8311 4464.

Geordie Shore stars' cosmetic transformations

WHILST MANY CELEBS ARE PRIVATE ABOUT THE COSMETIC ENHANCEMENTS THEY’VE MADE TO THEIR LOOKS, THE STARS OF MTV HIT SERIES GEORDIE SHORE ARE OPEN ABOUT THE CHANGES THEY’VE MADE.

BELOW WE TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE COSMETIC PROCEDURES THE SHOW’S STARS HAVE UNDERGONE, TO UPDATE THEIR LOOKS.

MARNIE SIMPSON

Marnie, one of the shows newer stars, has undergone several cosmetic procedures to enhance her already stunning natural looks. She’s had two breast enlargement surgeries and multiple lip filler injections to give her pout a plumper look.

CHLOE FERRY

Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry has undergone multiple updates to her look, including Botox to smooth out the lines on her forehead, lip filler injections to give a fuller pout and dermal cheek fillers to balance out the shape of her face. She’s also undergone veneer treatment to her teeth, making multiple changes to her face whilst showing off her exercise and diet plan to help her shed weight on her social media channels.

CHARLOTTE CROSBY

One of the original members of the Geordie Shore crew, Charlotte has also become famous outside of the show for her weight loss and exercise DVDs. She’s more recently undergone cosmetic procedures to smooth out the shape of her nose using rhinoplasty surgery, and has botox on her forehead and lip fillers, like the rest of her female cast mates.

HOLLY HAGAN

Holly’s also undergone a number of facial cosmetic procedures including veneers for her teeth, lip fillers and botox to give a more youthful appearance to her skin. Perhaps most famously she’s known for undergoing two boob jobs. After the first one went wrong, she says she now feels far more confident with her new boobs as the shape and size are perfect for her body.

Five celebs who’ve shared their plastic surgery stories

Although social media is often accused of creating an unrealistic image of what life is really like, there’s also an argument to be made that it has led to increasing transparency, especially amongst celebrities, who share even the minutiae of their days with their thousands of online followers.

Perhaps this is partially responsible for the increasing wave of men and women in the public eye who have been happy to open up about the cosmetic procedures they’ve undergone.

IF YOU’RE CURIOUS, HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE CELEBS WHO’VE RECENTLY SHARED THEIR SURGERY STORIES…

#1: KYLIE JENNER

Following months of speculation on the topic, Kylie Jenner made her big reveal on an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, when she confessed to the cameras that: “I have temporary lip fillers. It’s just an insecurity of mine and it’s what I wanted to do.”

#2: ASHLEY TISDALE

High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale is another celebrity who’s been open about admitting to having surgery. Undergoing arhinoplasty procedure in 2007, she claimed a deviated septum that affected her breathing had been primarily responsible for her decision.

#3: KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN

Kylie Jenner is not the only member of the Kardashian/Jenner clan to have signed up for plastic surgery. Older sister Kourtney has also been open about undergoing cosmetic procedures to improve her appearance, after having a breast enlargement aged 21.

#4: IGGY AZALEA

Iggy Azalea has admitted to having not just one procedure performed, but two: a rhinoplasty and a breast enlargement. Speaking of the latter, she said: “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.”

#5: BRITNEY SPEARS

Famous for her enduring career in pop, Britney Spears is another big name who’s been open about having a hand from the professionals. Stating in an interview that she has trialled both lip fillers and other procedures, she singer said: “A doctor I see [reputedly Beverley Hills surgeon Dr Raji Kanodia] does fun stuff to me sometimes – I’ve had lip injections before.”

It’s clear that plastic surgery is spoken about much more among celebs. If you’re contemplating going under the knife, can find the procedure that’s right for you by getting in touch with the Belvedere Clinic or more information.
