Prefectionists

Recently i have been watching those Taiwanese beauty shows toking about cosmetic surgeries. It seems that its pretty common in areas like Taiwan, Korea n Japan. Girls are getting more and more particular about their outer appearances.

For me, i would really like to go a lasik surgery to adjust my eye sights to prefect cos I'm sick of wearing contact lens, its costly and troublesome. The price of such survey used to cost about s$5000 but now it costs about S$1300 per eye. Getting cheap! Shall start saving up for this surgery.

IF...i got the money....i would like to do my eyes, my face, my body too..hee...

Double-eyelids surgery:
Suture blepharoplasty* $3,300-$3,600, healing takes three to five days. Looks natural in a week. Cannot remove fat or give eye lift. Few complications.

Open technique* $3,900- $5,100, healing takes six to nine days. Looks natural after six to 12 weeks. Can remove fat. Can give eye lift. Greater chance of complications.

“innie” foldA more oriental look, eyelid crease arches down to join the eyelash margin.

Slimmer Face n Slimmer calves:

BOTOX Injections About * $80 per injection but charged as "Areas": glabellar frown lines (* $480-$750), forehead lines (* $480-$1000), crow's feet (* $480-$750), chin (* $560- $750), face slimming jaw muscle injections (* $1,800-$2,000).

Liposuction

WHICH BITS Most effective on thighs and butt. But can also be used on tummy, calves, necks and arms.

UPSIDE It gives good and lasting results with a visible lift to the butt mound.

DOWNSIDE You have to take a week off as swelling and bruising is noticeable. Those who've extracted a lot more fat eg 5-6 liters may need hospitalisation and a blood transfusion.

All these are the prices that we have to take to be the "prefect" person. Is the effect of the multi-media that makes one think tt being slim, fair is being prefect? or is it juz us?
