I had lunch at home today, so I caught The Oprah show, interestingly enough today's show is all about the extend people would go to look younger and more beautiful.
I learned 2 very interesting procedure which is all the rage now.
1. Threading Lift
Non evasive procedure that lifts your face. How you ask? They numb your face, then starts "drawing" where the the thread will go to tighten the skin. Needle with special thread is then inserted through the layer of skin and then knotted near the hairline. Voila ~ instant face lift. Recovery period 2 days. Lasts about 3 years, and you can always go back to tighten the thread.
2. Fat replacement
Fat from other parts of your body is taken out and put back on places where you need them. Mainly, they take the fat from the hips and place them on the face. Also a non surgical procedure. Using the viles of fat taken from your own hips or buttocks, it is then injected in various spots on the face. This will plump up, smoothen the skin and give it a healthier look. A new you with the help of your unwanted fat..Taa-daaa!
Recovery period 2 days. Note: the injected fat needs to be sculpted around your face, if not, you'll just have fat-filled face.
Looking at both procedures, I just don't get why it's called non evasive...It's very invasive! and looks damn painful...I guess beauty is all about withstanding the pain that comes with it...just like wearing those 4-inch heels.
