Is Kate Winslet right?
August 24th, 2011
Earlier this month, three leading British actresses spoke out against cosmetic surgery. Kate Winslet, Emma Thompson and Rachel Weisz all declared that they will never get plastic surgery.
In many ways, this was a strong vote against the Hollywood youth-driven culture which places immense pressure on actresses in particular to retain their youthful good looks rather than age gracefully.
However many commentators have also remarked that it is easy to rush to the moral high ground when you already enjoy such iconic good looks.
The decision on whether to undergo a cosmetic surgery procedure should always be a personal one, and taken only after full consultation.
Although the primary motivations are visual improvements, for many women and men, cosmetic surgery can also bring increased self-confidence and raised self-esteem.

The Pippa Effect and Cosmetic Surgery
August 12th, 2011
At the royal wedding earlier this year, Pippa Middleton’s profile gained her instant fame and a worldwide following. In particular her spectacular figure-hugging bridesmaid’s dress drew attention to her bottom, and with it over 200,000 fans on Facebook!
Since then, plastic surgeons around the world have been inundated with requests from clients wishing to reshape their derrieres to emulate Pippa’s.
In the US, this augmentation of the behind is now termed a ‘Pippa butt lift’. Previously patients’ descriptions of the perfect rear tended to refer to Beyonce , Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian.
And apparently Pippa’s nose is also gaining a strong following as the ideal, challenging those of actress Nicole Kidman and singer Ashlee Simpson.
For most cosmetic surgeons, this trend underlines what they already knew – people will ask for what they see and like. And both Middleton sisters have certainly enjoyed a lot of TV and online exposure in the past year.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Pippa has certainly caught many eyes!
