Boy, when I think about it, this really is the age where anything you could possibly want to do to yourself, beauty and self improvement wise, is pretty much possible. Heck, some of it may be illegal in some parts of the country (I kid, sort of), but it is nonetheless available for the taking if you want it. You want to be taller? There’s a surgery that is offered for that!
You want to lose the fat off only certain parts of the body without dieting? Get liposuction. You want to get rid of cellulite? Provided you have a couple hundred bucks to spare on an ongoing upkeep basis, you can be virtually cellulite free with the array of advanced cellulite reduction treatments on the market today (or you can do them in your own home, which is what I like to do).
Do you want your eyes to be wider and more alert looking? There are eyelid jobs, nose jobs, lip plumping enhancements, cheekbone implants, chin implants, forehead smoother, face lifts, mini facelifts, treatments that help you look younger nonsurgically but that are still somewhat high tech. You get it, the list goes on and on for what you can do to yourself or have done to you for the cost of a couple grand or more, or less, depending on where you get it done.
It’s sometimes scary to think we can alter our appearance to the point where we are almost unrecognizable, but it’s also nice to know we can get tasteful, naturall looking professional work done to ourselves if we want it.
Along those lines is a relatively newer procedure that not many people know about, aside from maybe high paid models and celebrities, where you can actually get eyebrow hair transplanted into your eybrow area to make sparse or previously overplucked eyebrows look as full as the heart desires again.
This was popular when the fad was to overpluck the eybrows to a pencil thin consistency in the mid nineties – believe me, I was a victim of overplucking and unfortunately I still have to pencil in my “eyebrows” in a lot of areas where they are almost noexistent. I’ll keep pencilling though, I don’t foresee any eyebrow transplants in my future. I’ve got bigger fish to fry
