Did Tyra Banks Have Weight Loss Surgery?

Posted on November 2nd, 2009 in Black Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Carrie Zender

Supermodel Tyra Banks notoriously told tabloids to kiss her fat a** when less than flattering pictures of her in a bathing suit appeared. Now the talk show host has stopped embracing her big, beautiful body and lost enough weight to slim down, although not to her former runway weight. Given Tyra’s history with the knife, Make Me Heal can’t help but wonder if weight loss surgery has been involved in Tyra’s dramatic transformation.

Tyra Banks, Plastic Surgery

At age 35, Tyra recently dropped from an estimated size 14-16 to a slimmer size 8. While supermodels are notorious for regularly gaining and losing weight in the name of fashion, Tyra has declared herself retired from modeling, so she may not be as adept at weight loss as she once was.

Plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Ellenbogen says, “Tyra Banks is a lot thinner. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt that she did it by diet. Could be either way though…lipo or diet. Models notoriously gain and lose weight concominant with their relationships and work schedules. They’re actually masters at it and above all, Tyra is a model.”

Although Tyra has refuted rumors of a breast augmentation once and for all, she has been the subject of other plastic surgery rumors, including a likely nose job early in her career (See Make Me Heal’s story on Tyra Banks’ plastic surgery).

However, given Tyra’s recent passion for honesty and encouraging women to live a healthy lifestyle, Tyra could have lost the weight on her own.

Plastic surgeon Dr Sherrell J Aston says, “It is entirely conceivable that Tyra lost weight without any surgical procedures. One can do this with proper diet and exercise. Tyra looks great.”

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr David Shafer says, “Tyra looks great in her latest photo shoot. However, there is not much skin showing. Often with significant weight loss, the skin loses its elasticity and its youthful appearance. I suspect that is why she is covered so much in these photos.”

Tyra’s shenanigans are always in the news, stirring up controversy and Make Heal looks forward to her next crazy stunt.

Bai Ling Stays Sexy without Plastic Surgery

Posted on October 26th, 2009 in Asian Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Erica Hurtz

Bai Ling is best known for her questionable fashion taste that leaves little to the imagination. But the Asian actress seems to be staying sexy all on her own, with little or no help from plastic surgery.

At 43, Chinese-born Bai Ling is at an age when many Hollywood actresses are beginning to show wear and tear on the big screen and start having facelifts and fillers to prevent looking old. But not Bai, she is staying away from the knife, but still looking better than ever.

Bai Ling, Plastic Surgery

Dr. Paul S. Nassif, Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Spalding Drive Cosmetic Surgery says, “Bai Ling does not have any obvious indications of plastic surgery. It is possible she had some Botox, but nothing further. She looks great for 43, and seems comfortable in her shoes.”

The extremely confident mainly Indie actress doesn’t have any plans for plastic surgery, saying, “Myself, I will never have plastic surgery. When you do that, you start to lose yourself.”

Plastic surgeon Dr Sherrell J Aston says, “After reviewing Ms. Ling’s photographs it appears that she has been blessed with not only attention-grabbing style, but also great genes. I do not think she has had any surgery to date.”

Plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Ellenbogen says, “Bai Ling looks all right from the factory, anyway there is nothing obvious.”

Look out for Bai Ling’s next role as a stripper in A Beautiful Life.

Jon Gosselin Wants More Plastic Surgery

Reality star Jon Gosselin must now be one of the most talked about people ever. New rumors have surfaced indicating that Jon may be looking to get more plastic surgery to start looking camera ready for the ladies.

Jon Gosselin, Plastic Surgery

At 32, Jon has already had hair transplants to help thicken the appearance of his thinning hair as well as had teeth whitening procedures. (Read Make Me Heal’s story on Jon Gosselin’s plastic surgery). According to gossip columns, the almost single father of eight is considering going under the knife again, to get more hair plugs as well as some Botox injections and some liposuction as well.

Plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Ellenbogen, “Jon Gosselin gets paparazzied more than anybody. He is tired of looking balding and chunky. It’s funny how most of the buzz about him is negative with a totally unflattering picture of himself. ‘Crap,’ he must say, ‘I look like crap. I need to look better…not to get new woman but for my own self image…okay you paparazzi after the surgery try and make me look pathetic now.’”

While some may argue that a man with eight children and an ex-wife on the way has more things to worry about than his appearance, Jon Gosselin is not your average divorce situation. Jon is frequently photographed and he can’t be thrilled that while Kate looks great in a bikini, he packs more than a little paunch. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Kate Gosselin’s plastic surgery).

Dr. Paul S. Nassif, Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Spalding Drive Cosmetic Surgery says, “Jon Gosselin does not appear to show any drastic signs of aging.  It would probably be of his best interest to hold off for a while, as he may get more out of any procedures a bit later in life.”

As Jon has been seen with various women since leaving Kate, and weren’t his supposed girlfriend Hailey Glassman, a source has said, ““He is sick of the fat jokes, and he knows he needs to look better to get the girls he wants. Jon’s hoping lipo will take off 20 to 30 pounds and make him look more desirable.”

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. Jennifer Walden says, “I think the best option for John Gosselin would be a healthy diet and exercise regimen.  Liposuction can be a great tool for stubborn areas that might not go away with diet and exercise, but for areas where a significant amount of fat needs to be removed, good old fashioned aerobic exercise with a healthy diet is the best option.”

Make Me Heal looks forward to following the divorce saga as it continues to twist and turns and wonders if Jon’s girlfriend’s father will have a part in his new plastic surgery.

Is Traci Bingham a Plastic Surgery Baywatch Babe?

Posted on September 9th, 2009 in Black Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Lisa Stanfield

Fans of the hit 90s television show Baywatch will already know who the stunning Traci Bingham is. But who would she be without the help of plastic surgery?

At 41, Traci clearly took cures from another star of Baywatch, Pamela Anderson, and headed to the plastic surgeon before hitting the beach. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Pamela Anderson’s plastic surgery). But Make Me Heal thinks that Traci ordered more than just an oversized breast augmentation to help boost her career.

Traci Bingham, Plastic Surgery

While there is no doubt that Traci is a beautiful woman who has aged remarkably well, it is just as certain that a good plastic surgeon has aided her appearance as much as good genes. Make Me Heal suspects that Traci has had at least one breast augmentation as well as at least one rhinoplasty to help her nasal tip appear slimmer and more pointed rather than round and bulbous. More recently it seems that Traci has also added a lip augmentation to her beauty regime.

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “Traci Bingham does not seem shy about her implants.  In many pictures, they appear asymmetric with possible development of contracture on her left.  Additionally, when comparing the before and after pictures, she does appear to have refinement of her nasal tip, narrowing of her nose and alar base resection.  Finally, she has gone a bit overboard with the lip injections - I just hope it is not a permanent filler.”

According to Paul S. Nassif, a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon and Rhinoplasty Specialist in Beverly Hills, California, “Traci is a naturally beautiful woman but it is evident she had some work done. Her lips have more than likely been treated with filler, and noticeably more plump than they were before. Traci’s nose appears much smaller in her more recent photos. The tip is a great deal softer and significantly less bulbous than it was which is an improvement. And the bridge looks like it was narrowed quite a bit, creating a nose that may not look as natural as it could having been a bit more conservative. She still looks amazing. But in her case, less may be more.”

As Traci is in the midst of middle age, it seems likely that she has also been using Botox Cosmetic injections to help skin remain youthfully wrinkle-free.

Plastic surgeon Dr. John Di Saia says, “She’s likely had at least a rhinoplasty (likely more than once), breast implants, eyes, and lips. She is likely a Botulinum toxin user as well.”

Plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J Aston says, “It appears that Ms. Bingham has had a Rhinoplasty, lip injections and Botox. While it is impossible to tell what size implants Ms. Bingham has; it is probably in the 550 to 600 cc range. In my aesthetic judgment they are too large for her body.”

Fans of Traci can look forward to spotting her in the upcoming thriller film, Black Widow.

Is Kanye West’s Girlfriend Amber Rose a Plastic Surgery Queen?

Posted on September 8th, 2009 in Black Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Lisa Stern

Amber Rose is best known for relationship with hip-hop artist Kanye West. When the couple took a recent trip to Florida, Make Me Heal, and the rest of the Web, got a glimpse at whether or not the model has had any plastic surgery.

Amber Rose, Plastic Surgery

At 26, Amber Rose has found in a niche in her unique appearance, namely her penchant for bright, skintight clothes and her short buzz cut hairstyle that she routinely bleaches blonde. Because she is so obviously into her appearance and clearly isn’t shy, as a recent outing in a bright orange thong bikini showed, Make Me Heal wondered if the former exotic dancer and sometime model had used plastic surgery to further her appearance and career.

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “It is hard to tell if Amber Rose has had plastic surgery without older photos.  Since is just recently in the limelight, I doubt we will see any older photos.  However, I don’t see any incisions or telltale signs of surgical procedures.”

Nearly nude and up close photos didn’t reveal anything that seemed to resemble plastic surgery. Amber clearly takes care of her body and does not appear to have breast implants or a nose job, which are common in the modeling field.

According to Paul S. Nassif, a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon and Rhinoplasty Specialist in Beverly Hills, California, “At a glance, Amber does not appear to have had any work done. Her curves look natural as do her facial features. She is young and beautiful, and has nothing that is in need of being enhanced.”

Many will remember Kanye has previously had a tragic experience with plastic surgery, losing his mother to a routine liposuction procedure. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Donda West’s plastic surgery). Perhaps he has then deliberately sought out one of the seemingly few young women in entertainment industry who has not gone under the knife.

Make Me Heal wishes both Amber and Kanye the best in their relationship and careers.

Jennifer Lopez Considers Plastic Surgery

Posted on August 31st, 2009 in Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Carrie Zender

Since she went from Fly Girl to Diva, Jennifer Lopez has sparked rumors of plastic surgery. Now she has finally spoken out on the subject.

Jennifer Lopez, Plastic Surgery

For years, Make Me Heal has reported on 40 year old Jennifer Lopez’s various plastic surgery rumors, including a nose job, cheek implants, and a lip reduction, breast augmentation, Botox or Restylane injections as well as SmartLipo and laser treatments like Fraxel, Pixel, or Active Fx. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Jennifer Lopez’s plastic surgery).

Plastic surgeon Dr Sherrell J Aston says, “Jennifer Lopez is part of a Hollywood a baby boom that we have seen over recent years. However unlike some of the other stars she has said it wasn’t easy for her to loose the pounds. In my opinion it is likely that she has undergone liposuction to help with the stubborn trouble areas. After reviewing her photographs I do no think Mrs. Lopez is unfamiliar to plastic surgery. I estimate she has had several procedures like Rhinoplasty, Blepharoplasty, and her Cheek Bones appear to be more contoured than in her earlier pictures. Each procedure has been done very tastefully and she does not appear overdone by any means. She is a very attractive talented woman and I wish her the best in her new role as a mother.”

More recently, Make Me Heal pondered whether or not Jennifer turned to plastic surgery after having her twins, Max and Emma. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Jennifer Lopez’s Mommy Makeover).

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr Jennifer Walden says, “She looks radiant on the cover of the September issue of InStyle magazine. She had twins, Max and Emma and reportedly gained 50 lbs during her pregnancy. She does look slimmer, so diet and exercise are definitely in her regimen. Sometimes after multiple births mothers are often left with excess skin and fat around the lower abdomen. An abdominoplasty (tummy-tuck) is a good solution to remove this excess skin that is hard to get by exercise and diet alone.”

Jennifer recently admitted to having trouble losing all the baby weight.

She said, “I thought the weight was going to drop off easily because I’d been in shape my whole life. But it wasn’t easy. It was an uphill struggle. I had gained about 50lbs while pregnant. The first 30lb dropped off like that and I was so pleased. Then I had to lose the last 15 or 20lbs that just didn’t want to go. I had to diet and work out a lot.”

She went on to reveal that while she considered having plastic surgery, she ultimately decided against it, although it may still be in her future plans, “I have to say I feel awesome! I feel the same way I felt when I was in my 20s.

“I don’t see myself having any plastic surgery, but I’m not at that point yet, so I don’t know. I don’t know how I’ll feel when I’m older. But I’m more of a natural person and I believe in beauty not being an outside, physical thing. Luckily, I’m used to seeing myself everywhere now that I no longer obsess about the way I look.”

New York plastic surgeon Dr David Shafer says, “At forty years old, Jennifer Lopez, can make dramatic changes in her body just through diet and exercise. So, it is hard to tell if she has had any plastic surgery help.”

While Make Me Heal thinks it unlikely Jennifer is as natural as she claims, she certainly looks as stunning as ever.

Did Singer Leona Lewis Get a Breast Augmentation?

Posted on August 3rd, 2009 in Black Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Erica Hurtz

British singer Leona Lewis made it big in the US with her pop single “Bleeding Love.” But many have also wondered if plastic surgery has helped enhance her career. Make Me Heal investigates the evidence with the help of our plastic surgery experts.

Leona Lewis, Plastic Surgery

24-year old Leona Lewis first came to the attention of the public when she won on the third season of the British talent show The X Factor. Since then, Leona’s popularity has crossed the pond and made her a hit in the US as well.

Crossing the pond has also brought Leona’s cleavage into better view, leading many bloggers to speculate that the pop singer has had a breast augmentation since rising to fame.

While her breasts are noticeably larger, it is also possible that their growth is due to weight gain.

Plastic surgeon Dr. John Di Saia says, “Maybe. It looks like she may have gained a little weight, but she seems much more busty than that we would usually see with small weight gains.”

Plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J Aston says, “After reviewing the photographs of singer Leona Lewis I suspect that her current breast size is more due to a weight gain rather than implants.”

The Grammy nominee’s breasts could also be held up by a more supportive bra that better shows off her ample cleavage from previously.

New York plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “Based on the “then and now” photographs, Leona Lewis does appear to have had breast augmentation. She has a fuller upper pole and more cleavage. However, this could also be the effect of a supportive bra and change in posture between the pictures as well. If she had surgery, it is a job well done.”

Whatever Leona has done to enhance her appearance, it has clearly helped to enhance her career as well and Make Me Heal wishes her luck on her new album.

Is Plastic Surgery Part of The Saved By the Bell Reunion?

If you were a fan of Saved by the Bell back in the day, it seems you were not alone. Late Night’s new host Jimmy Fallon apparently is the show’s number 1 fan and has even put together a petition for a reunion. As the possibility of a reunion show begins to look more promising, Make Me Heal takes a look at the stars of the show and their possible plastic surgery.

Mark-Paul Gosselaar was the center of the show, and his role as Zack Morris made him a part of television history. Now 35, Mark-Paul looks eerily the same as he did when the show was at the height of popularity, leading many to believe he’s had plastic surgery, or dabbled in Botox at the very least. On the other hand, Mark-Paul could be all natural.

Mark-Paul Gosselaar-plastic surgery

Plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J. Aston says, “ I do not think that Mr. Gosselaar has had any plastic surgery procedures. He has been fortunate enough to maintain his natural good looks over the years and still looks very youthful. I believe he has maintained a good weight, diet and lifestyle to achieve this. In the future he might want to consider Botox for his forehead and crows feet.”

Mark-Paul made a recent appearance on the Jimmy Fallon show in full Zack Morris character, despite having a successful television career since Saved by the Bell ended. With his bleached blonde hair and tanned-looking skin, it seems that Mark-Paul has had Botox injections, giving him a smoothed forehead and arched eyebrows.

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr Jennifer Walden says, “Mark-Paul Gosselaar has some normal signs of male facial aging such as a receding hairline and lower set brows. The possibility exists that he has had Botox to help make his forehead smooth. He also has on makeup in some of the photos which makes him look a little unnatural.”

New York plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “Mark-Paul does not look like he has done any invasive plastic surgery.  I suspect he has Botox on board since it forehead it much longer, brows are lower and the skin just as smooth as it was 15 years ago.

Zack’s long-time love interest on the show, Kelly Kapowski, played by the sexy Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, looks like she may have also gone under the knife.

tiffani-amber-thiessen-plastic-surgery

At 35, Tiffani has only improved with time, and has enhanced her natural beauty with a possible breast augmentation and smoothed away the wrinkles of time with some Botox or a mini-browlift.

Dr. Walden says, “Tiffani Amber Thiessen looks like she has had breast augmentation and now has arched eyebrows and wide eyes, possibly from a mini browlift or Botox.”

Dr. Shafer says, “Tiffani likely has Botox treatments and possible cheek fillers.  However, it is hard to tell if anything else has been done. “

Plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J. Aston says, “In my opinion Tiffani Amber Thiessen indeed had plastic surgery. Based on her photos is appears that she has undergone Breast Augmentation and Rhinoplasty. She could also be using filler such as Restylane and or Juvederm.”

Another member of the attractive cast is 36-year old Mario López. Mario is often rumored to have gone under the knife, but the muscle bound hunk who currently hosts entertainment shows and has been on Dancing with the Stars may owe his good looks to healthy living more than good plastic surgery.

Mario Lopez, Plastic Surgery

Dr. David Shafer says, “Mario does not look like he has had any invasive plastic surgery.  He obviously keeps in shape and it has done his body well.”

Dr. Walden says, “Mario Lopez is on DWTS. Many say he may have gone under the knife, however from comparing the before and after pictures, Mario seems to just be aging gracefully. He also may have lost some weight.”

Dr. Aston also noted Mario’s excellent physique, saying, “I think that Mario Lopez looks very good and is a fine example of what consistent good exercise and diet can lead to. His face has matured and when he lost some of his baby fat it reveled a nice high cheekbone. Mr. Lopez is a handsome man and I believe he is aging very well.”

Others members of the cast, including Showgirl Elizabeth Berkley may have also undergone plastic surgery.

Elizabeth Berkley, Plastic Surgery

After Saved by the Bell, 37-year old Elizabeth Berkley broke free of her role as feminist Jessie Spano by appearing in Showgirls, a role for which she may have undergone a breast augmentation. Elizabeth’s face has also taken on a very smooth appearance in recent years, indicating the user of dermal fillers and Botox and she has also been rumored to have had a nose job to help her break free of her Showgirls past.

Dr.  Shafer says, “After viewing the pictures, I suspect that Elizabeth has had some nose work, but it is hard to tell for sure.  In some views, her neck appears thinner as well, which may indicate some liposuction was performed. “

Dr. Aston says, “Elizabeth Berkley is beautiful woman and is aging very well. It is possible that she is using Botox and micro-dermabrasion to keep her face looking so good. It is also possible the she underwent Breast Augmentation Surgery based on her before and after photographs.”

Lark Voorhies, who played Lisa Turtle is now 36 and has never been quite as in the spotlight as during her Saved by the Bell days. Make Me Heal thinks the actress is aging nicely and without the benefit of plastic surgery.

Lark Voorhies, Plastic Surgery

Dr. Shafer says, “From the photos I have seen, it appears that Lark may have had alar base resection of her nose and has a touch of Botox.  However, I would need to see more photos to tell for sure.”

According to Paul S. Nassif, a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon and Rhinoplasty Specialist in Beverly Hills, Calif., “It looks as though Lark may have had an ethnic rhinoplasty. If she did, it looks very natural.”

As for Dustin Diamond, who played the nerdy Screech on the series, he has likely not had plastic surgery, although he may have wanted to in order to prepare for his self-released sex tape. Dustin has also struggled with his weight as he is no longer the scrawny Screech, a fact he illustrated on a season of Celebrity Fit Club.

Dustin Diamond, Plastic Surgery

Dr. Shafer says, “Dustin does not look like he has had any invasive plastic surgery either.  He also looks like he has Botox on board since his brows are low and spread laterally and his forehead is smooth.  If he wants suggestions, he may benefit from a cosmetic rhinoplasty.”

Dr. Nassif says, “Most of the Saved by the Bell cast have not had any surgery or Botox.”

While Saved by the Bell wasn’t the best show ever, Make Me Heal looks forward to seeing the whole gang back together for a reunion for nostalgic reasons.

Is Stacey Dash Clueless About Plastic Surgery?

Posted on July 29th, 2009 in Black Plastic Surgery, Celebrity Plastic Surgery, Ethnic Plastic Surgery by Carrie Zender

After noticing that Stacey Dash still looks as good as she did in her star-making role back in the mid ‘90s, Make Me Heal wondered if Stacey Dash is doing like the other cool kids in La La Land and dabbling in plastic surgery.

Best known for her role as Dionne in 1995’s film Clueless, Stacey Dash looks just as stunning at the age of 43 as she did playing a high school student at a fashion-obsessed Beverly Hills high school. Like one of the of the characters in the film, it seems that Stacey may have a rhinoplasty in her plastic surgery past, leaving her with a small button nose with an unusually shaped tip.

Stacey Dash, Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgeon Dr. John Di Saia says, “At some point she had her nose done. It was either done poorly or was a hard one. It is hard to tell.”

Stacey looks like she works hard to maintain her stunning body. Her firm abs and toned arm don’t appear to be result of liposuction treatments, but rather dedication and hard work.

Stacey’s face also looks to be untouched by invasive anti-aging procedures, although she likely gets Botox injections to help with wrinkles around her eyes and in the forehead region.

Dr. Paul S. Nassif, Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Spalding Drive Cosmetic Surgery said, “Stacey is absolutely beautiful. I think she is extremely natural and hasn’t had any major plastic surgery. She may have had some Botox or lip fillers, but I think that may be it. Cheers to Stacey.”

Plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J. Aston said, “I think that Ms. Dash looks very good. It is incredible how she has hardly aged since her first movie. It is possible that she may have had some plastic surgery procedures over the years although they are very natural. Her good looks appear to be a combination of genes, diet and exercise and perhaps surgery.”

Oftentimes, the only real symptoms of aging on a woman who takes good care of herself are in the hands. Hands are overused and so signs of age, even if the rest of the body remains in good or great condition, like Stacey. Luckily, fat grafting can help with this area.

Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “Stacey Dash looks great for 43. However, the hands are the sign of aging and she may want to consider fat grafting to her hands to help camouflage her age. She does not look like she had any invasive plastic surgery on her face, but likely has Botox Cosmetic on board.”

While Stacey has done many projects through the years, she still looks Dionne to Make Me Heal, the best-dressed sidekick ever.

Plastic Surgery At The Movies: Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Beyonce, Tom Hanks

With summer blockbusters just around the corner, Make Me Heal takes a look at some of the plastic surgery currently playing in theaters, before the studios bring out the big releases.

Matthew McConaughey, Hair Transplants

New father Matthew McConaughey is known for his killer abs and receding hairline. In his new movie, Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, both are readily on display.

 

Matthew McConaughey has long struggled with hair loss (See Make Me Heal’s story on Matthew McConaughey’s Hair Transplant), but recently, it has been looking better than ever.

 

Hair restoration expert Dr. Alan Bauman reveals, “Matthew’s hair has been on the rebound for a while now. Publicly, to my knowledge, he’s denied surgical intervention and equates the regrowth to a magical topical potion. However, physicians will agree, nothing grows hair on bald skin except hair transplantation. Even Propecia, which works 90% of the time, is designed for the long haul… keeping the hair you have, NOT re-growth of the hairline. Contrary to popular opinion, today’s hair transplant procedures can be performed comfortably, reliably and efficiently. Not to mention, undetectably. This means that the transplanted hairlines of today, if performed with an “artistic eye,” can mimic the feathery, wavy randomized look of a natural hairline—(i.e. NOT ‘pluggy’). And because the transplanted hair is living and growing (also permanent, by the way), he can shampoo, wash, cut, swim, etc., all without the hassle and maintenance of a hairpiece—which would be an artificial solution to the hair loss problem. Advanced minimally-invasive techniques, like the FUE (Follicular-Unit Extraction) performed with devices like the NeoGraft, also allow for procedures that require no scalpel, no stitches and leave no linear scar give hair transplant patients more options for hair-styling. FUE procedures allow the surgeon to extract hair follicles or groups of follicles individually, without a linear harvest.”

Matthew McConaughey, Hair Transplants

New York plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “It sure looks like Matthew has more hair now than he did in the past. It is a nice result.”

It also looks like Matthew McConaughey may have dabbled in Botox and facial fillers, as his face looks wrinkle-free considering all the time he spends frolicking in the sun.

Matthew’s leading lady in the romantic comedy is actress Jennifer Garner, as famous for her large lips as her breakthrough role on the TV series Alias. (See Make Me Heal’s story on Jennifer Garner’s lip augmentation). Although many believe Jennifer’s lips to be naturally large, some evidence supports the theory that she has used fillers of some kind to augment them.

Beyonce Knowles, Cosmetic Surgery

On the other side of romance, is the thriller, Obsessed, starring obsessed plastic surgery fan, Beyonce Knowles (See Make Me Heal’s story on Beyonce Knowles’ plastic surgery). Since breaking out as the lead singer of Destiny’s Child, Beyonce has reportedly undergone several cosmetic surgery procedures, including a nose job, breast augmentation and liposuction.

Angels & Demons premieres this week, starring Tom Hanks and his notoriously fluctuating hairline (See Make Me Heal’s story on Tom Hanks’ hair transplants).

Dr. David Shafer notes, “Tom has an unusual hair line, if he has had hair transplants, then he might want some more to achieve a natural look.”

 

In the follow-up film to the Da Vinci Code, Tom Hanks once again runs around the world as Robert Langdon, bad hair and all.

 

Dr. Bauman explains, “When it comes to Tom’s ever-changing ‘do’—it appears he’s been through a potpourri of some bizarre styles and even hairpieces over the years. The main aesthetic problem, however, seems to be that there’s a significant loss of the “temporal point” which has not been addressed. This area is critical to the ‘frame’ of the face and the lack of restoration of that area is usually a dead-giveaway that something is awry.

 

“The good news is that this area does not require a large amount or density of grafts, so it is a big ‘bang for the buck’ when it comes to using the precious donor supply of hair. Most patients do not realize the aesthetic importance of this area, mainly because they are viewing themselves from straight on most of the time.

“In 1993, you can see he had A LOT more of his temporal point left than today. You can even see the miniaturized hair at the hairline, which was fading at that time.

 

“When the miniaturization at the hairline is noticeable, that’s the time to take action with non-invasive treatments like Propecia, Minoxidil or Laser Therapy. These are treatments that can help slow and stop the progression of hair loss, so smaller or fewer sessions of transplantation are needed over time.

 

“In the past, when describing Tom’s hair, you mentioned strip grafts and mini-grafts. These techniques are outdated by about 10 years.

 

“Most hair transplants today (except for extremely rare cases) are performed using FUT (follicular-unit transplant) techniques—grafts that contain one, two or three hairs, only. Any transplanted grafts larger than that run the risk of looking pluggy. Also, whether the technique used is FUT (follicular-unit transplant) using a strip-harvest or FUE (follicular unit extraction–individually harvesting hair from the back of the scalp) the ‘grafts’ you get are essentially the same: one, two or three hair follicles each.”

Jennifer Aniston, Plastic Surgery

 

Another actress known for her hair, albeit in a positive way, is actress Jennifer Aniston. Starring in the comedy, Management, Jen is best known for bringing the world, “The Rachel” haircut. Jennifer has also spent her share of time in the plastic surgeon’s office (See Make Me Heal’s story on Jennifer Aniston’s plastic surgery), undergoing rhinoplasty procedures to supposedly correct a deviated septum, as well as cellulite treatments.
