Cosmetic Surgery, Botox May Help With Migraine Pain, Plastic Surgery,

A preliminary study suggests a link between the use of injections such as Botox  and a reduced frequency of some types of migraine.

Among all participants who responded to treatment, migraine frequency was reduced from an average of 6.8 days per month to an average of 0.7 days per month.

Botox-like injections produce muscle paralysis, but this does not explain how they might prevent migraines, the authors of the study say.  Research indicates that they may affect the way pain signals travel through the nervous system, block pain receptors or reduce inflammation.

What unknown medical benefits could be provided by other cosmetic procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, gastric band etc?

Katie Price, known by many as Jordan, is a known aficionado of cosmetic surgery.  In a recent book she talked about her five boob jobs, nose job and use of injections such as fillers and botox.

Now she is reported to be encouraging her new husband and cage fighting star Alex Reid to undergo a variety of procedures including work on his nose and ears as well as Botox.  Alex’ ears have been repeatedly bitten and nose broken 20 times in cage fights.

It has been reported that Katie “wants her husband to look his best” for their wedding and that plastic surgery could be beneficial for him in a potential career as a movie star.

Cosmetic Surgery, Plastic Surgery for Pelosi? Liposuction.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is the highest-ranking female in American political history, and it may be that she has had a facelift.

Despite not having an overly tweaked appearance, some have suggested that 69-year old Speaker Nancy Pelosi does look so good for her age that it may be down to surgery, or at least injections.  Rumours surround purely her facial appearance and no claims have been made about the rest of her body, such as liposuction, tummy tuck, or gastric band.

There has been no confirmation of this by Pelosi or her people.

Cosmetic Surgery, Botox for Duff, Plastic Surgery,

Cosmetic Surgery, Botox for Duff, Plastic Surgery,

Despite her young age, 22-year old Hilary Duff appears to have had Botox injections in her forehead. Botox is becoming increasingly popular, partly due to the ease and price of these procedures compared too full blown cosmetic surgery such as liposuction, tummy tuck and gastric band.  Rumours about Hilary are sparked by reports that Hilary’s forehead and the space between her brows do not wrinkle, and also has a shiny look that is associated with Botox use.

In addition to Botox, some are also speculating that Hilary is getting lip fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm, as her lips appear to be fuller than previously, although she does not have the trout pout of some of her peers. In the past she has been rumored to have had rhinoplasty and breast enlargement procedures.

Plastic Surgery, More Botox for Arlene, Cosmetic Surgery

The former Strictly Come Dancing presenter Arlene Phillips said in a recent interview that she is considering having more Botox, stating “If something works, go and do it is what I think.”

The 66-year-old star was the centre of an ageism controversy last year, when she was replaced as host of Strictly Come Dancing by the series’ former winner, 30-year-old Alesha Dixon.

This episode has obviously had an effect on Arlene, as she now seems to consider cosmetic surgery in order to hold on to her TV roles, saying “Every time I’m about to do a TV thing, I think: ‘You know, I could just have…’” she told Good Housekeeping.

It is unkown exactly what procedures she has had.  Botox is very likely and possibly liposuction or a face lift.  Any other surgery such as a tummy tuck is unknown.  She has previously commented on find it very easy to put on weight so a gastric band might also be tempting.
