Botox use becoming as common as hair dye for blasé Gen Y

August 25, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Melbourne, Aug 24 (ANI): For young women, using Botox has become as acceptable as dying hair, say cosmetic surgeons.

While older women are more concerned with fixing lines and wrinkles, women in their 20s are flocking to change the shape of their eyebrows and lips, the experts said.

Dr Gabrielle Caswell, head of the Cosmetic Physicians Society, says young women are turning to Botox to follow fleeting fashion trends.

“A lot of the girls are using it as a fashion trend,” News.com.au quoted Caswell saying.

“They do like the plump lips … and it’s very trendy to have flanged outer eyebrows,” Caswell added.

Caswell said that some young women also had frown-lines flattened, but the overwhelming majority just want a new style.

Bondi cosmetic surgeon Michael Zacharia said reshaped eyebrows were particularly popular with young women.

“I see quite a number of younger patients coming through. More often, I see the younger ones coming in and ask for their eyebrows to be lifted,” Zacharia said. (ANI)

Melbourne, June 22 (ANI): ‘Amelie’ star Audrey Tautou is all set to enthral movie buffs with her portrayal of one of the most adored and iconic Frenchwoman- Coco Chanel-in a new biopic titled ‘Coco Avant Chanel’./pp
Chanel was a style pioneer who became an indirect crusader for feminism, leading the way for women about 80 years ago in what was then very much a man’s world./pp
Although it posed a daunting task, Tautou agreed to take on the role and trusted her imagination and lost herself in the character.hus, the result has come in the form of a fantastic French fairytale, which follows the early life of the girl who went on to become the precursor to the modern woman./pp
It was difficult because there was an obligation to run an interpretation that people might already know about Coco Chanel and we have to honour that image and personality, the Daily Telegraph quoted Tautou as saying./pp
She added: There are so many myths about her. That was the most difficult thing with this character. About this period of her life there was so little known – there are no witnesses to that time./pp
She further said: She was so secretive about who she was and I had to start depending on my own opinion creating something from the materials that I had. I had to use my imagination a lot. I had to trust that./pp
Directed by Anne Fontaine, ‘Coco Avant Chanel’ is a beautifully shot film telling the story of the illegitimate, abandoned Gabrielle Coco Chanel, who was taught to sew by nuns in an orphanage before singing for tips to drunken sailors in a run-down bar./pp
And finally she became the biggest names in the fashion industry./pp
Despite being asked by many directors and film houses to play the fashionista, Tautou agreed to Fontaine and Warner Bros only because she found something she liked. /pp
I found that Anne Fontaine had a good feeling and sensitivity for the personality of Coco Chanel, she said./pp
The actress is currently starring as the new face of the biggest-selling perfume of all time-Chanel No. 5./pp
‘Coco Avant Chanel’ opens on Thursday. (ANI)/p

Aussies give Botox, boob job market $45M boost

May 7, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Melbourne, May 7 (ANI): Cosmetic surgery jobs had started to dwindle with the onset of recession, but Australian people’s appetite for Botox and boob job are said to have helped boost the market up to 45 million dollars.

The Cosmetic Physicians Society of Australasia said the nation’s harsh sun continued to drive demand for cosmetic procedures, but belt-tightening by consumers was also expected on the horizon.

Spending on procedures like Botox and laser hair removal increased 15 per cent over the 12 months to March 31, to total 345 million dollars.

“The global financial crisis has not diminished Australians’ appetite for cosmetic treatments and Australians’ demand outstrips that of other countries,” the Daily Telegraph quoted CPSA public relations officer Dr. Gabrielle Caswell as saying.

“(But) looking to the next 12 months, it is possible that the growth in demand for cosmetic treatments may drop to below 10 per cent … we are optimistic that demand will remain strong,” Caswell said.

Australian women have been going in for anti-wrinkle treatments, “filler” procedures for lips and the face and laser treatments for scarring or hair removal.

While men have increasingly turned to non-invasive cosmetic treatments, which included anti-wrinkle treatments, acne scarring procedures and laser for permanent hair reduction.

“Our members have also reported a trend for patients to look for holistic treatments,” Caswell said.

“They’re asking for an overall consultation and assessment rather than simply asking for their lips to be plumped, and they’re doing a fair bit of preliminary research on the new technology and treatments on offer,” she said.

The figures were released as the CPSA’s annual conference that got underway in Sydney on May 6. (ANI)
