    Cosmetic Foot Surgery Story

    Cosmetic Foot Surgery

    Women's obsession with shoes are an enigma. And a foot is hardly an after thought--especially when it comes to high fashion.

    And that's why women who aren't happy their pedal appearance, are doing anything to put their best foot forward. A big trend these days is cosmetic foot surgery (Read more about Cosmetic Foot Surgery)

    Power Plate Story

    Power Plate

    Typically the exercise mantra is to get up and, well, move!

    But can an exercise machine that appears to have no moving parts help you build muscle strength? Endurance? Even bone mass?

    Appears is the operative term.

    Because it might look like there’s nothing going on here. Now, whether or not it does something is another issue, but no question, the power plate gives a whole new meaning to shake your booty.

    The power plate is a vibrating platform. (Read more about Power Plate)

    Obesity and Weight Loss Surgery Story

    Obesity and Weight Loss Surgery

    Severe obesity is a chronic condition that is difficult to treat through diet and exercise alone. Bariatric surgery is one of the best options for people who are severely obese and cannot lose weight by traditional means or who suffer from serious obesity-related health problems. The surgery promotes weight loss by restricting food intake and, in some operations, interrupting the digestive process. As in other treatments for obesity, the best results are achieved with healthy eating behaviors and regular physical activity. (Read more about Obesity and Weight Loss Surgery)

    Post Pregnancy Tune Up Story

    Post Pregnancy Tune Up

    As a new mom, Kristin Mackey has learned the drill…diaper changing marathons, countless feedings and burpings…but, what she still can’t grasp is the metamorphosis of her body, post pregnancy. “I had some broken capillaries in my face, you get like this little pouch that won’t go away, and some cellulite in some unmentionable places,” says Kristin.

    Kristin, mom of 4 month old, Carson, is thoroughly enjoying the little miracle she brought into the world, but as a first time mom she’s also trying to adjust to the person she now sees in the mirror. “I am really looking forward to get into a bathing suit and get into my old clothes, that is really the biggest thing,” says Kristin.

    Health Wrap: Studies on Botox, Migraines and Drinking Story

    Health Wrap: Studies on Botox, Migraines and Drinking

    Researchers have discovered a novel way to increase the potency of Botox, which would translate into less frequent injections and perhaps even enhancing its cosmetic benefits, and it might mean lower prices for the popular wrinkle-remover.

    In a medical setting, small doses of the Botox toxin causes localized, temporary paralysis that erases wrinkles and unwanted muscle spasms.

    The researchers developed a synthetic molecule that can ‘super-activate’ the neurotoxin, thereby increasing the toxin’s paralyzing effect by as much as 14 times that of the untreated toxin. (Read more about Health Wrap: Studies on Botox, Migraines and Drinking)

    Radiesse Treatment Story

    Radiesse Treatment

    57 year old Fran Ciulla decided to fight Father Time and gravity without getting plastic surgery. “The lines were really deep, my lips were shrinking,” says Fran.

    Looking for a quick rejuvenating fix, while staying far away from the operating room, Fran chose a Radiesse treatment.

    “Radiesse is a product, injectable product and its composition… very small microspheres of calcium hydroxide that are put into a water gel suspension,” explains facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Thomas Romo of Lenox Hill Hospital. (Read more about Radiesse Treatment)

    Buttock Agumentation

    They’re some of the most envied backsides in Hollywood. J.LO, Beyonce…no doubt their curvaceous derrieres have set a trend ablaze.
    “I always wear fitted jeans,” says Marcella Bequillard.
    “Beef up the bottom area, beef up your butt a little, make it perky,” says Jill LaVorgna.

    Many women are now turning to buttock augmentation in an effort to compete with some of the best bottoms in Tinsel Town. “A butt lift is mostly a buttock enlargement or a buttock augmentation, but indirectly it causes some lifting of the buttocks, and basically it re-contours or reshapes the buttock,” says Dr. George Lefkovits of Lenox Hill Hospital.

    New Cellulite Laser Story

    New Cellulite Laser

    Thirty-one year old Kristi Rook says she has tried every lotion, potion and fad diet in the book, but, she just can’t get rid of her cellulite.
    “I run, I bike-ride, I kick box, I volleyball, all summer, you name it and I’ve tried it, it is so frustrating that I do all this exercise and I can’t get rid of cellulite.”

    Kristi says she packed on twenty pounds in college and as a result, is still fighting cellulite. But, she recently tried the new FDA approved laser called TriActive. It is a therapeutic massage treatment for cellulite, which smoothes and tightens the face and body. (Read more about New Cellulite Laser)

    Pull Procedure Story

    Pull Procedure

    Mary Lucina never had a weight problem until she became pregnant. Once she delivered her son, she continued to pack on the pounds and eventually developed high blood pressure and diabetes. Her weight topped at 247 pounds. Desperate to get her weight under control, Mary had gastric bypass surgery two years ago.

    “I went from being overweight and then I lost 80 pounds but I still had a lot of excess skin so I went for the tummy tuck which was then followed by the “PULL” procedure,” says Mary Lucina. (Read more about Pull Procedure)

    Obesity Costs Story

    Obesity Costs

    There’s no question that the cost of obesity in America is not just a healthcare concern, but an economic concern as well. But exactly how severe is the cost of obesity, and can tackling the financial aspects of obesity help reverse the obesity trends?

    This week the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University gathered government officials, academic and food industry experts to discuss the latest thinking and policies regarding food and the problem of obesity.

    The proliferation of cheap fattening foods and the marketing of unhealthy foods to kids are just two of the financial factors feeding obesity. But if we manipulate the money, experts say we can reverse the fattening trends. (Read more about Obesity Costs)
