October, 21, 2009, Scarring is often a major downside to many common cosmetic surgery procedures. Although most scars will disappear over 12 to 18 months, about a third or so of scars tend to be permanent on one’s body, as many patients of cosmetic surgery are being left with unsightly marks and/or a hard raised ridge of tissue, which is a common reminder of one’s cosmetic plastic surgery procedure.
The impact of these scars can be quite distressing for people, especially if they are on everyday visible parts of one’s body such as the face, neck, legs, or arms. Some recent surveys have shown that many people, who have undergone a cosmetic surgery or a routine surgery, were unhappy with the scarring left behind post surgery. More

BUDAPEST, Hungary — It was a night for unnatural beauties.
October 9, 2009, Contestants showed off breast implants, nose jobs and face lifts as Miss Plastic Hungary 2009 strove to promote the benefits of plastic surgery in a country where artificial enhancements are viewed mostly with a wary eye.

Chronic patients — those who are laid low 15 or more days a month — often cycle through drug after drug in search of relief. They also contend with side effects like mental sluggishness and stomach upset. Treatment involves guesswork because doctors have not pinpointed what causes migraines, nor do they know which drugs will best help which patients.
“It can be a merry-go-round going from medication to medication in pursuit of control,” said Dr. Roger K. Cady, the vice president of the board for the National Headache Foundation, a nonprofit organization devoted to patient education. More

August 17, 2009, Last year, Frank Chang spent about $1,500 on non-surgical cosmetic procedures. This year, the 35-year-old Chinese American may go a step farther.
“I may be getting a lift for my eyes,” said Chang. “The reason I am not doing it yet is because I am a bit afraid of the pain.”
Chang said if he were happy with the results, he would continue to do more surgical procedures “in a healthy way.”
Chang is one of an increasing number of Asian-American men defying a cultural stigma to engage in cosmetic surgery in order to improve their appearances.
