Hello, fabulous Beauty Chat readers! Along with being an editor/contributor to this wonderful site, I am also an editor and writer for iEnhance.com (another website in our network). Many of those who are considering cosmetic plastic surgery often look to personal accounts when researching their procedures, which is why we would love to hear from you. We are constantly looking for inspiring stories from real people just like you who have had an enhancement procedure – cosmetic plastic surgery, skin care treatment, or cosmetic dentistry procedure. Here are a couple of examples of some recent stories: Jana’s Story and Elease’s Story.

If you would like to share your experience with a procedure you underwent, please feel free to contact me!

Most women dream about their wedding day from a very early age… They  plan out every detail of the event, from the dress to the food to the honeymoon location. Not surprisingly,  brides-to-be  head to their local gym before their big day in an  These all sound pretty standard, right? Well, here’s a new trend – plastic surgery to be  for  the “perfect bride.”

On Monday, August 16^th, well-known Hollywood plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan died in a car accident. It has been rumored that the famous doctor was tweeting while driving when his automobile turned off the highway. Dr. Ryan was most recently in the spotlight when Heidi Montag emerged with a new face and body – the celebrity plastic surgeon performed 10 procedures in one day. More »

In case you haven’t heard, “The Hills” star Heidi Montag underwent 10 cosmetic surgery procedures in one day back in November 2009.

This would be the second round of face and body enhancing surgeries she’s had in the last few years; she previously had a nose surgery performed and breast implants surgery.

In today’s world, it’s not something new to see a celebrity, or reality star, have a few nips here and tucks there. But when does it become an addiction and no longer a little tune-up?

Joan Rivers, Cher, Jocelyn Wildenstein, and Mickey Rourke are just some of the Hollywood stars who are known for their ever-changing looks. Now, the female half of “Speidi” seems to be the newest member of the plastic surgery addicts club. More »

If you enjoy sharing the knowledge, or learning about “seriously safe and satisfying nail polish,” self-help tips, and how the right shade of lipstick can truly turn your day around; plastic surgery forums are another place where you can blab about beauty.

Sure, the PlasticSurgery.com community may revolve more around plastic surgeries, such as breast implant surgery and nose jobs, as well as youth-defying procedures like Botox injections and the mini facelift, but doesn’t mean that these topics are stand-alone. One of the reasons why Beauty Chat was created, as you pretty much already know, is to bridge the gap between all that makes us “Look Good, Feel Good, and Speak on It!”

A plastic surgery forum is just another one of our stops, where you can relax and kick up your feet. And you’ll notice that some of us Beauty Chatters like to chit-chat from topic to topic in the forums as well…See ya there!

It is commonly assumed that men want to date or marry the “perfect woman” one day. But what exactly does “perfect” mean? When talking about appearance, many think tall, thin, blond, blue eyes, pouty lips, perky breasts, and a toned tush. But then you step into the real world and learn that it’s actually really hard to find this “perfect woman” without her undergoing some kind of plastic surgery.

In addition to being my 25th birthday, today marks the anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death. On August 5, 1962, Monroe was found dead in her Brentwood, California, home. There are many speculations as to the cause of her departure, and I am a firm believer in the conspiracy theories (especially the one involving Bobby Kennedy), but I won’t get into that!

In today’s world, children are becoming more and more informed of “grown-up” things at a much earlier age. For example, my 6-year-old niece asked me if I had a cell phone because she wanted to add my number to her contact list. I don’t think I even had a cell phone until I was in college!

So you can imagine my surprise when I saw an article on a new children’s book about plastic surgery. My Beautiful Mommy (Big Tent Books) by Dr. Michael Salzhauer, a Florida plastic surgeon, is an illustrated book aimed at children ages 4 to 7. I remember reading “The Cat in the Hat” and “The Goldstein Bears” when I was six – not books on what my mom was going to change on her body. More »

On this week’s installment of The Hills on MTV, the rift between Lauren Conrad and Spencer Pratt has evolved into a veritable hate-fest. The latest victim to be swallowed up in the drama is poor Brody Jenner, who was pronounced an “Enemy” by Spencer, his childhood buddy. What travesty did Brody commit to earn this shame? He is “rolling around with” (Spencer’s words) the Heart of Evil, otherwise known as Lauren Conrad!

(At Teen Vogue, Lauren and Whitney agreeing that Spencer’s attitude toward Brody is juvenile = totally “high school”)

Later, Brody found consolation when he met Lauren, Audrina Patridge and a guy friend named Frankie (who seems to have appeared out of nowhere on The Hills Season 3), at Hollywood’s historic Roosevelt Hotel. Sipping on drinks from the Tropicana Poolside Bar, the gang collectively agreed that Spencer’s friendship rules belong on the school playground. As a Reality TV newbie, Frankie neglected to censor himself, making mention of Lauren’s recent “friendly sleepover” at Brody’s condo. Clearly annoyed that he did this during a taping of MTV’s The Hills, Lauren started to put Frankie in his place. But then she gave up and smiled it off. 

(Heidi declares her innocence once again, placing the blame on Brody for Lauren’s troubles.)

With these developments fresh in her mind as well, Heidi Montag headed over to Doughboy’s Bakery to catch up with Jen Bunney. We noticed something different about Jen immediately, as did Heidi (who went under her own transformation this year as well). Not only does Jen look different, she also appears more confident. Find an excellent rhinoplasty surgeon, did ya Jen? As expected, Jen spent her time with Heidi lamenting over the strife they have both experienced with Lauren. Heidi, with dramatic emphasis, proclaimed, “Brody Jenner is her new friend? It was Brody Jenner who started those rumors!”

So now, with yet another person accused of spreading lies throughout The Hills, I am really starting to wonder: Will we ever learn the truth?
