Restylane Info

Archive for October 2nd, 2008

For people traveling out of New York this winter, whose faces may need lifting along with their spirits, Norwegian Cruise Line has a new service available to their passengers: facial aesthetic treatments with Botox, Restylane and Perlane are being offered in its on-board spas.

The treatments already are offered on the Norwegian Spirit, Gem and Dawn, all of which have cruises departing from Manhattan this fall and winter, but recently, as demand grew, so did the availability of the service.

The Botox treatments involve botulism injections to soften facial wrinkles. Restylane and Perlane are dermal fillers that can reduce lines and provide fullness to the skin.

Guests schedule a 30-minute consultation with the physician on-board who creates an individualized plan. Restylane and Perlane treatments start at $700. Botox treatments start at $300 a session.

Back in 2004, Megan Fox had a girl-next-door image with light-brown hair and cute features. But now, four years later, the 22-year-old resembles Angelina Jolie more than her former self, with jet-black hair, pouty lips, a refined nose and bigger boobs, reports In Touch Weekly.

Many have already noticed the resemblance and have started calling Megan Fox “Angelina Jolie 2.0.” is she as hot as Angelina was at that age?

Megan Fox’s stunning appearance may not be entirely her own, with cosmetic surgery experts claiming the actress appears to have had breast enhancement surgery, a nose job and lip-plumping injections. According to the In Touch report (it should be noted that they have not treated Megan Fox), Dr. Kevin Tehrani, medical director of Aristocrat Plastic Surgery, speculates, “Her upper and lower lips appear fuller. It looks like she had Restylane or Juvéderm injections.”

New York facial plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas Romo believes she underwent rhinoplasty, too: “The bridge of her nose is thinner and the tip is more refined.”

As for her new curves, Dr. Theodore Diktaban, a plastic surgeon at Sadick Dermatology, thinks she had her breasts augmented.

“The well-defined contour of an implant is apparent,” he says. “She was probably an A cup and became a large B.”

Megan has admitted to suffering from low esteem in the past, which may explain her confidence-boosting surgery.

The Transformers beauty confessed, “I don’t feel very attractive or feminine, I feel like a boy.”

But now that she’s become a bona fide bombshell, Megan’s finding that her new look comes with a challenge — to be appreciated more for her work than her appearance. “I’m not going to apologize for my looks,” she says, “but there’s much more to me than that.”
