After nursing three kids, this mother found herself disappointed with her post-baby breasts, so she did what many moms consider: She went under the knife to perk up her other girls with saline implants. A scientist by profession, she didn't make the decision lightly, but instead says she spent hours researching the procedure, speaking with her surgeon, reading literat

Breaking news: News anchors get plastic surgery and Botox. Actually, considering the frozen faces you usually see on the nightly news, that's not so surprising-especially now that HDTV is here, ready to zoom in on every tiny wrinkle. (We also suspect they wear booty shorts and knee-high socks behind those desks.) So which news personalities are more "Good Night and Ni
Volumizing mascara, lash plumpers, falsies, even extensions...augmenting eyelashes is a big business. And while Maybelline Great Lash may be the quintessential miracle beauty product, nobody does glamorous lashes better than Shu Uemura. The best Japanese import to emerge since sushi, Shu Ueumura's array of luxe gold eyelash curlers (the pride of my makeup ba
We've all had those moments of self-loathing when we step on the scale the morning after a Big Mac Attack. But imagine how you would feel if you weren't just a little heavy-you were one of the fattest people on the planet. The heavyweights below have known that feeling, having gained notoriety for their larger-than-life bodies. Read on-and put the brownie down. <
Aubrey de Grey is not your typical scientist. With a long beard and ponytail, and dressed faded jeans and a t-shirt, he ended his talk at the Technology, Entertainment, and Design conference with the challenge: "If you think that I'm wrong, you'd better damn well go and find out why you think I'm wrong." Oh yeah-and he believes it's possible for human beings to live t
Want to jazz up your next dinner party...and a new tuna casserole recipe just isn't enough? According to Small Town Politics, the Japanese might be able to offer some party hints that'll blow Martha Stewart out of the water. Apparently the new trend in the Land of the Rising Sun is to construct a lifelike, nude woman constructed completely out of food...like a blow-up
Which one of these celebrities would you like to see go 'under-the-knife' before their next close-up picture or movie?!! Rachel Zoe Melanie Griffith Keith Richards Patti Smith Courtney Love Brigitte Bardot Camilla Parker Bowles David Gest Barbara Streisand Michael Jackson The link goes to the vot
According to statistics published in the 2006 World Factbook, life expectancy in the United States is 77 years. Don't send out save-the-date cards just yet. Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS) is a medical engineering project striving to remedy and reverse human aging. The SENS strategy is not to interfere with metabolism, like traditional gerontolo
Technorati Profile John Joseph Conway is living proof that men can become just as vain as women when it comes to getting plastic surgery. The Chicago firefighter took his admiration of Bruce Willis to new heights when he traveled last month to New Delhi, India to get his jaw line reconstructed to look li
We hear that with every generation, people are living longer. But just how much longer? Well, last year, Los Angeles resident, Mark Johnson died at the age of 112. He was thought to be the oldest living Californian and oldest surviving veteran of World War I. What's more, doctors who performed the autopsy said that his body was like that of a 50 year-old, and here's t
Does having breast implants make a woman a suicide risk? According to a study published in the August issue of Annals of Plastic Surgery, the answer is yes. ABC News and USA Today are reporting that the study, conducted by researchers in Maryland, Tennessee, and Sweden over an eight-year period, found that "women who have breast implants are three times as likely to d
Yes, certainly, finding the right doctor is an absolute must. Pricing is only a small part of the equation because getting a doctor who is skilled in this technical field is critical.
You've seen the commercials of Tiger Woods praising the surgeons that corrected his poor eyesight with laser eye surgery. "Now I see the ball 20/20," he beams in the ad. While millions like the golf guru have had the surgery, many with poor eyesight still don't know what it is or how it works. Having had the surgery, I can give you the basic nuts and bolts.
This kind of goes with the last article, below. If a spouse gives you a plastic surgery gift certificate how would you react? There's a voting on-line that I thought was interesting (follow link)...Would you... 1) Say "Thank You!" then secretly go to your room and cry 2) Say "Thank You!" (and mean it) then race to the phone to schedule a consulta
I doubt people are just surprising their loved ones with gift certificates like that There really is a case of it actually...happened to me!! I'm not sure if this does happen a lot like you said but I sure know from personal experience that I was a bit hurt but, hey, I got over it and I gotta say it did
How would you react if, on Christmas morning, your husband handed you a gift certificate in the amount of $10,000.00, redeemable only by the plastic surgeon of his choice, along with a note that read, "Honey, I'd really love to fondle your breasts again without having to bend down. Love, your husband of twenty-two years, Charles." "The American Society of Pla
Yeah, Chris is certainly on the high list- thanks for the add!
Some of the biggest boobs in Hollywood don't necessarily belong to women. Sadly, some male stars have let themselves go and sprouted the dreaded man boobs (where's a "Bro" when you need one?). On the bright side, we can still count on a few more disciplined fellas to show off the sculpted pecs that we all drool over. In this round-up of the best and worst male chests
Larger breasts without surgery- that's an interesting one!!
Now I think we're on to something here! Seriously, genetically speaking the nose really is one of the more distinct features...
Now this is interesting. We put up another poll on our site (link) where we wanted to know where people hold their ethics...Suppose your fiance had a nose job before you and him/ her met....are they obligated to tell you before you become wed? The current standing on the site is 54% to 46% so I thought I'd throw it out to the JU community, y'all always have the answer
See, I've got to agree w/stubby finger- everyone always looks to 'beat cancer' so to speak and other diseases- what's so different?
Thought you of all people may be interested in this video, on my site, about living forever- is it possible?
It seems though that we're close to finding a biological match for immortality...in the video one expert even states that he believes this is the generation that we'll figure it out- just thought it was interesting the thought process because no one really thinks this stuff is possible.
If you believe death is something man has no control over, I strongly suggest watching this eye-opening short film on You Tube, The Immortalists. It may just change your mind. This eight-minute video explains how the coalescing of knowledge, computer technology, stem cell research, and genomic engineering is fast turning man's quest for immortality into a reality.
