Celebrity-inspired Cosmetic Surgery
Popular celebrities can influence their fans to seek out cosmetic surgery to look like them, according to some cosmetic surgeons.
Here are some of the current popular requests for cosmetic surgery to look like a celebrity:
Facial Procedures
Some cosmetic surgeons report that Lady Gaga’s face is popular for those who are looking for a more angular face through procedures such as facial implants.
Who has the perfect pout? For many patients, Angelina Jolie’s lips are the ideal and are sought after through lip enhancements; options for fuller lips include lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid fillers, fat transfer or lip implants.
Body Contouring
Those looking to slim down their thighs through liposuction or a thigh lift often look to Jennifer Lopez’s legs as an inspiration.
For those seeking a tummy tuck for a flatter belly, Jennifer Aniston’s abs are the look that patients want.
Currently Kim Kardashian’s rear sets the gold standard for those looking for a better backside through buttock augmentation procedures, such as implants or a fat grafting technique called the Brazilian Butt Lift.
Cosmetic Surgery for Men
Men are also inspired by the celebrities they admire. For instance, the Jersey Shore crew may be mentioned by men seeking male breast reduction (gynecomastia), and Brad Pitt’s nose is often requested for men who are undergoing rhinoplasty.
Natural-looking Results
Experts say it is important to remember that that not all features are achievable or natural-looking on everyone, and that it is more important to focus on getting realistic, proportional results, rather than a carbon copy of a celebrity’s body part.
So while you may love a certain star’s lips, nose or legs, your cosmetic surgeon will help determine whether it is a realistic result for you.
