There are a variety of surgical procedures to ‘pretty up’ yourself. If you’re not happy with the way your eyebrows are shaping up, you get cosmetic surgery done to pull your brows up or give them the shape you want. If your belly button is protruding and you want to tuck it in, umbilicoplasty will come to your rescue. If your toes are too long or too short, toe surgery ill help you slip your feet into a pair of glass slippers.
Renee Weathers, a song writer and mother of two, wanted to get umbilicoplasty. Renee felt that after she had children, her belly button did not look the way it used to before she had her kids. No amount of exercise could get the extra blob of skin off from her belly button. Bur after a belly button surgery, she is back to her original shape and can think of spending the summers in a bikini.
Women, who are unhappy with their feet, can also resort to surgery. Olive Fern, a landscape artist, had spent a lifetime in sneakers and closed shoes. “I’ve got this collection of interesting sneakers because I don’t feel comfortable wearing open-toed sandals,” says Olive. She is waiting eagerly for her scheduled toe surgery to change all that. A toe surgery will give Olive the feet that she has been dreaming off. Feet that can slip with glee into strappy sandals.
One of the hottest, newest trends in cosmetic surgery is fixing thinning eyebrows. This procedure is for those who are unhappy with the thinness, or the lack of eyebrow, or because a scar interrupts the normal curve of the eyebrow.
Carolina Baxton, a greeting card designer, had thick eyebrows as a child. But she developed a thyroid condition later in life and lost a lot of hair on her eyebrows, which made her eyebrows much thinner. She went in for surgery to make her brows look fuller. In the surgery, hair was taken from a donor area at the back of her scalp, divided into individual hair follicles and then placed in her eyebrow area.
Today, almost a year after surgery, Carolina feels much better about the way she looks.
