Madonna, Dr D and the OC Register

OC Register

I did a fair number of quickie interviews in Nov/Dec mostly on celebrity plastic surgery. Here's a quote that I missed until a kind patient pointed me in the right direction. Thanks to that patient and to Colin Stewart and the OC Register of course.

I am not sure if this stuff was ever really marketed, but if so it didn't work. I guess I can wait to put my breast implants away, huh?

Cindy Crawford, Loose Skin and a Tummy Tuck?

Pic Source

Cindy Crawford looks pretty good for her age but loose skin is a hard thing to fix. This is a common reason women in really good shape may consider tummy tuck surgery.

What ever happened to the EV1?

EV1 at Wikipedia

I am not a big believer in conspiracy theories, but whatever happened to the EV1? What a great idea this thing would be outfitted with current day electric batteries (probably Lithium Ion.) Why would GE destroy them?

It looked OK. It had the lowest drag coefficient in history. It would help us get away from fossil fuels.

Anybody know anything on this that doesn't sound like a science fiction plot?

Ashley Tisdale's Nosejob

AOL News

Ashley Tisdale had a a nosejob and is doing the common "I had a deviated septum" dodge.

The problem with her argument is that the repair of a deviated septum leaves no external signs. Externally you can see in her new nose that her nasal bones (really her maxillary bones) have been broken and reset giving her a more defined appearance.

She might be better off just admitting this and moving on, but then I am not her publicist.

Hooters Bikini Contest with a few Skeletons

The Bastardly

These "Hooters girls" (many sans much in the way of hooters) at this contest may show why so many think Jennifer Love Hewitt is fat. These ladies look like many of them need to be "force fed" to me. I am joking (well kinda,) but perhaps the common man seems to believe that deathly thin women are hot.

The page 6 girl here looks hot. There is hope. I wonder who won?

Vitiligo - In a News Anchor

Lee Thomas' skin is betraying him.

Vitiligo is a disease that affects the pigment in skin. Colored skin turns white in patches. This is one of those diseases that gets little press although it can be disfiguring.

Britney Spears Planning Some Plastic Surgery

Source

Britney Spears may be planning some plastic surgery. Hopefully she will get her diet and exercise program in line before surgery and maintain this afterwards. Otherwise she is in for a disappointment.

BTW - A mini tummy tuck looks a bit too small to fix her tummy at least from that which I have seen.

Skin Cancer Wound Repair - Not so Pretty Plastic Surgery

The removal of large skin cancers produces large holes. Part of plastic surgery can be the repair to reduce the deformity left behind. Sometimes plastic surgery is not so pretty.


Best Regards,

John Di Saia MD


P.S. All this is in a way courtesy of my cosmetic patients. Health insurance pays poorly for this kind of work, so cosmetic surgery helps subsidize it. If it weren't for my cosmetic practice, I would be able to do none of these cases.

Argentina for surgical tourism?

Surgical tourism is not bad for small procedures, but if there is a problem it can be a long flight back to get care. Most domestic plastic surgeons fear liability in caring for out of country cosmetic patients. Often the patient cannot sue the foreign doctor, and actually sues the domestic doctor for helping out. No good dead goes unpunished I guess.

Some of Dr Jan Adams' former patients were featured on the Dr Phil show along with Dr Adams' uncle and former business partner, a board certified plastic surgeon. Dr Adams pulled another "No show" although why he would agree to appear on the show is beyond me.

Mary Carey's Breast Implant Cancer Fund Raiser- Kinda

Ebay Listing

Porn Star and ex-California gubernatorial candidate is selling her old breast implants on Ebay and has been promoting the event as a charity auction. She apparently had them removed in a redo operation.

OK, there's nothing wrong so far. I guess.

I read the listing just for the hell of it and she is donating only 20% of the cash to charity. Now that wasn't mentioned in any of the clips I have seen of the event.

Butt Implants Gone Wrong?

My Break Video

Elisa of Elisita's Blog emailed to tell me of this one. Butt implants are not an operation that many plastic surgeons offer. The potential for problems is larger than many surgeons (myself included) are willing to accept. I do butt lifts, tummy tucks, liposuction and body lifts in that area, but I am not a fan of butt implants.

Is Jennifer Love Hewitt Fat?

Source

Jennifer Love Hewitt is not fat. She has a big booty only relative to a very thin waist. The swimming suit in which her rear was imaged was not the best choice either, but that is not a crime. She is obviously sensitive on the topic of her booty. It is one of her few faults.

Dennis Quaid Sues Baxter Healthcare

TMZ


Dennis Quaid has apparently decided to sue Baxter over the Heparin mishap that affected his newborns. This is a waste of the legal system's time. Those vials (seen at TMZ) are substantially different relative to others in medicine. Human error is human error. This is tragic, but true Mr Quaid.

Mistakes just sometimes happen with out a multi-million dollar company being at fault. I guess he wants a spin at the legal lottery. Doesn't he have enough money?

TMZ with pics


TMZ has posted recent Joan Van Ark (of "Knot's Landing") pictures that of course don't look so great. I am sure her plastic surgeon will be held accountable although we don't know:

(1) whether or not she smokes
(2) the photographer plus or minus Photoshop
(3) her source for permanent make-up
