What is happening to Jenna Jameson?

Posted by admin in celebrity plastic surgery, celebrity plastic surgery club, too much hurts on February 26, 2007

Dlisted has a story asking what is happening to Jenna Jameson. Jenna used to be a pretty smoking hot model. In this image from Dlisted she looks too thin with lips looking like a bit too much filler has been applied (my opinion of course.)

Too much cosmetic surgery can be a bad thing and is probably part of the problem here. It is a shame as Jenna has looked so much better.

A few years ago I wrote a piece for my web site that went through a few of my observations as to why porn stars do so poorly with plastic surgery. Surf it if you like.

Minnesota moves to Tax Cosmetic Surgery

State Rep. Phyllis Kahn is pushing to extend Minnesota’s 6.5 percent sales tax to include cosmetic surgery and appearance-enhancing procedures including chemical skin peels, laser hair removal, cosmetic injections and spider vein treatments.

Anybody who has the money for plastic surgery can afford to pay the tax, said Kahn, a Minneapolis Democrat.

Do I hear a campaign slogan coming:

“Democrats will even tax your Botox.”

I knew I wasn’t ever going to be a Democrat. LOL.

Kelly Osbourne on her Mother’s Plastic Surgery

Kelly Osbourne thinks her mother Sharon has taken her plastic surgery too far. Last week, she insisted she was so impressed with her mother’s boob job she couldn’t wait to go under the knife herself:

“My mum’s had just about everything you can have done, so I know the right and wrong way to do it.”

Funny.

Anna Nicole Smith’s Methadone prescription

Posted by admin in Medicine in the News on February 15, 2007

TMZ

Although I tire of the Anna Nicole Smith story, a legitimate medical issue has come up: the Methadone scripts. TMZ reports that a Dr. Sandeep Kapoor wrote her several scripts under different names. I review cases for the California Medical Board. They are plastic surgery cases, so this is a bit different.

Nevertheless, I believe that controlled substance scripts need to be written to the legal name of the patient. This may be a problem for the good doctor. Explaining why he wrote such a medication for a pregnant woman may take a review by medical experts in the fields of Internal Medicine, OB/GYN and/or Substance Abuse Medicine.

Angelina Jolie’s Nose Job

Angelina Jolie has had a nice rhinoplasty. The tip is refined and the work is not obvious without looking at pre-op images. CityRag blogs on this today. When this was done is a mystery.

Anna Nicole Smith and her Refrigerator?

Well folks, TMZ.com is reporting that Anna Nicole Smith had had recent cosmetic surgery. The supposition is that the surgery or late effects may have contributed to her death. Performing a cosmetic procedure on a woman taking many medications increases the risk quite a bit. Hopefully her surgery wasn’t a contributing factor to her death. I still think drug use is very likely a factor.

TMZ.com also has a bit on her refrigerator in the Bahamas (How the devil do they get these pics?) It has little red top vials that look quite a bit like the Vitamin B12 that I order for the office. These are commonly used after gastric bypass surgery. I wonder if she may have had that operation in the prior years. The Methadone is a big bottle and really is no surprise.

Teri Hatcher Hasn’t Had Botox?

Pic and Story Source

Teri Hatcher has denied the internet rumors proclaiming she has received Botox injections and plastic surgery

Really. So her forehead just doesn’t move then? It looks like too much Botox; so much I believe that she may have helped lower her eyebrows. She might benefit from a forehead lift, but she doesn’t like plastic surgery.

She might be better off saying nothing. Is anybody buying this?
