A new cosmetic procedure has been introduced in Japan. The procedure involves sewing pure gold threads under the skin in the face. While it may sound crazy, the procedure appears to take years off the face. When the gold is inserted into the epidermis, the body naturally creates large quantities of collagen around the gold. This doesn't just improve the state of wrinkles and sagging, but makes wrinkles smaller and whitens the skin so that it doesn't appear so dull. And the effects work for 10 to 15 years. This procedure was originally developed in ancient Egypt. Cleopatra was said to have used the procedure as her secret to young-looking, smooth skin. While the procedure isn't yet available in the United States, about 400 Japanese women have undergone the procedure, many with positive results. The procedure, however, is very expensive. Until the procedure is available in the US, cosmetic surgeons like Dr. Gendler of New Images Cosmetic Surgery Center in New Orleans offer tested facial rejuvenation procedures.

Recently, in the LA Times, an interesting article was published involving cosmetic surgery and ...twins! According to the article, many twins undergo cosmetic surgery together. Twins who look alike may need the same procedures, yet there is another reason to undergo cosmetic surgery with a twin. Many identical twins identify themselves with looking just like their twin; after all, looking alike is a big part of their bond. Unfortunately, as twins age, they can begin to look very different from each other. It is estimated that only one-third of aging is due to genetics. There is a rising trend of twins undergoing cosmetic surgery to correct the other two-thirds of ageing. Many twins want to continue looking identical so they get cosmetic surgery to make sure they look alike.

Cosmetic surgery has the ability to enhance features on almost anyone. If you are a twin, however, consider cosmetic surgery to increase the bond with your twin. Plastic Surgery Centers like Specialists in Plastic Surgery, P.C. in Chattanooga, Tennessee might offer the perfect thing to rekindle your relationship with your twin. Your looks will be more aesthetically pleasing too! If you would like to contact a surgeon near you, click here.
