How can you make your lips bigger without any type of surgery or makeup?

a good way for a temporary plump would be to use a old toothbrush with rustled brushes and exfoliate your lips. cover them with vaseline first and wait for the vaseline to sit before exfoliating. be careful not to do this too hard as your lips are delicate. make sure your lips are NOT CHAPPED and apply moisture thru chapstick or vaseline (not lipstick/gloss!!!)to your lips immediately after exfoliating. lipstick and gloss will dry out your lips even more so you'd have big lips but chapped ones as well. this trick will not only make your lips bigger, but it will give a more reddish and more natural color to your lips as well. (temporary tho of course)

The other alternative is to use a lip plumper. There are several on the market, some of which are better than others. A good one that appears to have a lot of good reviews is http://lusciouslips.org. You will find once it is applied that your lips start tingling, however this is supposed to happen and means the product is working on plumping your lips. With most lip plumpers the results should be immediate or at the most 5 to 10 minutes.

Does the zerona laser really work?

What does the scar from a tummy tuck look like?

The scar remaining from a tummy tuck can vary depending on whether the patient received a "standard" also known as "full" tummy tuck or a "mini" tummy tuck. A full tummy tuck is required after massive weight loss which leaves the patient with a lot of excess skin. This also can occur after having children through pregnancy. A mini tummy tuck is more appropriate for those individuals who have a small pooch about their pubic region and under the belly button.

With a full tummy tuck, imagine the shape of an eyeball while in socket (pointed oval). That is the pattern of the removed skin in this procedure. Typically that will occur above the pubic region and up to the belly button.

With a mini tummy tuck, simply take the above shape and split it in half. This is because less skin is needed for removal.

Both of these procedures result with the Surgeon connecting the once further apart portions of skin into a line or a crescent. While many experience some ability to hide their scar after a mini tummy tuck (within the bikini line), most full tucks leave a scar which is higher near the belly button.

Examples of both can be seen in most plastic surgeons before and after photo galleries.

How do you perform a labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that typically reduces the amount of tissue that the patient has surrounding her vaginal cavity. The reason there is too much skin varies from woman to woman, however child birth and age are the defining factors. While having elastic skin is critical for child birth, it also struggles to reclaim its tightness afterwards. In these situations the patient is left with excess skin that can actually be quite problematic. Tight clothing, sexual intercourse, rising a bike and more activities are painful. So, a Plastic Surgeon will put the patient under anesthesia and then surgically remove the unwanted skin. This procedure is relatively simple with regards to surgery as the Surgeon simply cuts a sliver of skin off the labia. Recovery and results are typically quite satisfying.

Why shouldn't teenagers get cosmetic surgery?

Teenagers, as anyone else, can benefit from reconstructive plastic surgery in case of mutilation or deformities. However, if it is for beauty reasons only, they should wait until their bodies are fully developed.

This has a simple reason: until the body is fully developed (at about 23 years old), the body features continue to change. You do not stop any part of the body from changing with plastic surgery and therefore you will not get a final result from it. Many plastic surgeries done on teenagers need to be retouched or fully done again at a later age.
