Why Celebrities Deny Plastic Surgery
Posted by admin in Dr D's Truth on March 5, 2013
Many people deny having had plastic surgery. Celebrities are only different in that there are multitudes of photographs publicly available to debunk their statements. Smart celebrities (in my opinion) simply admit to considering it and leave people wondering. Maintaining public interest is always in a celebrity’s best interest.
Probably the most important issue for entertainers is that their image is their livelihood. They need the availability of good plastic surgery in many cases to stay marketable. Of course, that which is “good” is very much a matter of opinion.

Who Did Your Favorite Celebrities’ Plastic Surgery?
Posted by admin in Dr D reactions on May 25, 2011
Doctors find it a bit more than amusing when they see online searches such as:
Who did Audrina’s Breast Implants?
Who did Pamela Anderson’s Plastic Surgery?
and the like.
The reason is simple: this information is protected by health care privacy laws. If the doctor were to let it get out (without the patient’s permission) he could be prosecuted or sued. Penalties in California for this kind of thing went up in the last few years.
A few months ago I received a letter from HHS (Health and Human Services) about a post I made here. It was regarding information I found on the Internet about a person who had never been my patient. That person contacted HHS saying that I had compromised his privacy. Little did he know that when he went to court, the resultant documents would render his private information public. That was where I found it. HHS closed the case and Dr D was cleared.
The bottom line is that a doctor is expected to hold his patient’s health information private unless the patient gives him permission to make it public.
My point is: Celebrities really don’t do that very often do they?

In the porn star lookalike section, we add Jennifer Stone who looks quite a bit like Jennifer Aniston. I don’t know if she has had any plastic surgery.

Porn Stars Who Look Like Celebrities
Posted by admin in Other Celebrity News on November 6, 2009
*Jesse Jane and Jamie Pressley – They do look kinda alike except in the breast department. They have similar facial features.
*Teagan Presley and Britney Spears – Another pretty close match.
Some of the others aren’t so close.

The Skinny On The Star’s Cellulite
Posted by admin in Beauty in the News on June 12, 2007
The Skinny posted on the Star magazine’s “Cellulite Secrets” article including some Scans with pics from the Star.
Let’s “Flesh Out” the piece a bit:
(1) Britney Spears – We have discussed her case before. Her recent exposures (pun intended) have shown us all the “looseness” of her skin following weight loss. She has some fat left, but her major problem is skin excess/laxity. “Lipodissolve” even if it did work (which I am not sure it does) should have little effect on her remaining problem. She has improved a great deal from months past however it is difficult to figure what portion of her activities (diet, exercise, etc) may be responsible.
(2) Jessica Simpson – It is impossible to compare the included “Before” and “After” images as her position in each is substantially different from the other (one has her leg extended and the other has it in a neutral position). I am not sure there is a problem here.
(3) Beyonce’ Knowles – same as (2)
(4) Uma Thurman – same as (2) and (3)
(5) Tara Reid – similar to Britney Spears except she had liposuction (twice) with weight variation before and after. Her skin is lax over some of the areas in which fat has been removed. Liposuction works best upon those in a stable weight range who have fat to remove. Don’t lose or gain a bunch of weight (more than say 7 to 10 pounds) after liposuction if you want the results to continue to look their best. And if you are really thin, lipo may make things worse.
(6) Pam Anderson – She keeps herself in shape and has never really gained a lot of weight in her lower body. Her legs look pretty good especially for her age.
The Bottom Line: The removal of fat can reduce the appearance of cellulite to an extent, but to have a greater impact the skin problem must be addressed. This is body lift territory folks….tummy tuck, thigh lift, etc. Of course avoiding the extent of weight gain in the first place can help prevent it. Genetics play a role here as well as does overall physical condition.
The appearance of cellulite is due to skin laxity as well as fatty deposits. Despite the fact that the removal of fat is the proscribed remedy in the Star article, this rarely works by itself to tighten anything.
