Our First Spring Beauty

Our patient of the month for March is Teneia! After coming to the decision to have a breast augmentation, Teneia did her research and came to Dr. Walden for it. She wanted a natural look and she looks and feels great! She is so happy with her results, she spoke with LXNY about why she wanted to have the procedure done (video below). Teneia talks about the right reason to have plastic surgery done: she did it for herself. She is a confident and beautiful young woman and we are so happy to have been part of her experience. See what she had to say about it...enjoy!

Why Rose Why?

I'm sure those of you that saw Rose McGowan on Law and Order SVU on Wednesday night were as disappointed as I was to see what she has done to herself. Her face just looks awful and fake. Her lips are over-injected, her cheeks are over-injected, and it looks like she has had her nose worked on again. Her whole face seemed puffy and abnormal. She could have done some correction without over-doing it, which she clearly did. By looking at early pictures of her (the Charmed era), you can see she had a little work done on her nose but it fit her face beautifully and I think she looked great. Now she has just gone too far and it is disappointing.

The sad thing is that I thought she was a pretty girl before all this and I liked her. She took on tough-girl roles and that's why women liked her and why men were attracted to her. I was willing to overlook the whole Marilyn Manson relationship and the chain-link dress but not this. When you take a pretty face and do this to it, it is just a shame. For those of you that forgot how pretty she used to be, I have added an older photo of her.

You can see Dr. Walden's comments on this on Popeater.com at http://www.popeater.com/2011/03/24/rose-mcgowan--plastic-surgery/

More men getting plastic surgery

Although we may write about women most of the time on this blog, we cannot forget that the number of men getting plastic surgery today is rising. Many high profile men opt to go under the knife but even 'average men' want to improve their appearance and are certainly willing to go through surgery. An ASPS Member Surgeon, Dr. Stephen Baker told one news source, "They want to look good. So when they have the financial means to do it, they are ready to do it now." (IndianExpress) Some of the more popular cosmetic procedures that men are having done seem to be rhinoplasty, facelifts and hair transplants, in addition to getting peels and using fillers.
Of course, I do feel the need to mention that women still get more plastic surgery than men. According to IndianExpress, "Women received 91 per cent of all cosmetic procedures, totaling 11.5 million." Breast Augmentation has been noted as being the top cosmetic procedure for women. Last year about 300,000 women underwent breast augmentation, making this a 40% increase of women going under the knife for this procedure in the last 10 years. I'd also like to add that this procedure remains to be the most popular procedure among Dr. Walden's patients.

Cheekalicious

There has been a lot of buzz about Fergie's appearance when the Black Eyed Peas performed on American Idol this past thursday. She looked so different that everyone had to take a double take to see if it was really her. Fergie's not new to plastic surgery (she has had work done on her nose and she admits to using Botox) so people are wondering about what she had done. Her cheeks appear much fuller than usual and the bridge of her nose seems to be narrower (that could be make up and lighting though). If I had to guess I would say that she had fillers put in her cheeks. High and full cheeks gives a youthful appearance and I think she looks great.

I like all of the work she has had done. Her nose (see below) used to be much wider before she had surgery and now it looks beautiful. Botox has given her a clean and smooth forehead that makes her look young and rested too. For a 36 year old woman who grew up in California and spent so much time in the sun and was once addicted to crystal meth and now performs on world-wide tours...I think she couldn't possibly look better!
