How Much Silicone Is Good Enough For You?:

I came across this rather sad story about a Philippine actress today which left me feeling very bad for the poor soul.

The actress Lau An Ling, has had about US$200,000 worth in cosmetic treatments till date (since 1999), reflecting the cosmetic surgery antics of many of her Western counter-parts (Jocelyn Wildenstein, Joan Rivers, etc.).

This lady has had silicone implants inserted into her face, nose, hands and buttocks and even in her vagina. Whew, what an awful lot of dissatisfaction she must have felt towards her body!

So where did this woman go wrong?

The vaginoplasty this woman had was the start of her troubles. She says, “I was desperate to make myself more beautiful, to assure myself that I am an attractive woman.” There are few bad things that you can enter with into a plastic surgery procedure with and an unrealistic attitude towards it certainly counts as the weakest.

Lau An Ling oscillated between many doctors, cosmetologists and plastic surgeons because she was “very trusting and some of these doctors are big names in the Philippines.” No matter how attractive a cosmetic surgeon may be and no matter how big a celebrity client-list he may have, it is a smart move to check up on his certification and his board affiliation.

Make a wise plastic surgery California decision. There’s more to lose than your identity if your surgery goes wrong.

Contact the Plastic Surgery Institute of California for further details.
