Excuse me, butt . . . Brazilian Butt Lift surgery no cosmetic wallflower
It may not be the first surgical procedure that springs to mind when we think of cosmetic surgery, but the Brazilian Butt Lift continues its steady progression up the popularity ranks. In fact, according to a recent survey by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, demand for this procedure has risen globally by 77.6% since 2015 – making it the fastest growing cosmetic surgical procedure in the world.
Prioritising Skin Cancer Awareness . . . Getting up-close-and-personal with your skin
Skin cancer is not just a seasonal striker, and it doesn't just play favourites. Protecting ourselves and loved ones means developing a closer relationship with our skin – not just slip, slop and slapping on the sunscreen come summer. When it comes to skin cancer, it’s not just fair skinned people or tanning booth users that are more at risk. A family history, hair type, certain types of moles, can all greaten your risk, with skin cancer striking anytime and any age.
CoolSculpting – Sculpt away fat, but do it safely
CoolSculpting is an ever-popular non-invasive body sculpting treatment – freezing stubborn fat pockets from the outside in – but like all cosmetic procedures, it does come with risks. New Zealand currently doesn’t regulate non-surgical cosmetic treatments, which means many Kiwis risk placing themselves in the hands of untrained, unqualified administrators when opting for appearance medicine treatments – like dermal fillers, Botox and CoolSculpting.
Peel back the layers . . . reveal rejuvenated skin
A fresh face year-round is something we all crave. And, the cooler months – before we edge into summer – gifts an ideal time to peel back the layers.
Tummy truths . . . Abdominoplasty through the ages
The tummy tuck – or abdominoplasty – is centuries old, but its purpose and surgical techniques have continued to advance across the years. Nowadays, a tummy tuck ‘tucks’ when skin is released from the lower part of the abdomen up to the belly – allowing the surgeon to tighten the muscles and flatten the midsection for greater restoration. Skin is then re-draped,trimmed and belly button delivered before all is complete!
