Not All Plastic Surgery Guarantees A Youthful Look!
In the movie business, cameras are everywhere. Close up images of stars' faces are broadcast on the big screen, the television, and the internet. Needless to say, those who are in the public eye are always mindful of the changes that age imposes. In Hollywood, where plastic surgeons abound, there are unlimited options for facial rejuvenation. The list of menu items is mind boggling, or one might say face boggling: injections of fillers, implantations of plastic cheek "bones", threads looped under the chin and under the skin, liposuction, and, ultimately, amputation of unwanted skin through traditional face "lifts".
Peer pressure is a huge factor here. For example, many teenagers are now getting breast lifts, nose jobs, cheek implants, and are competing with their mothers' age groups for cosmetic procedures. In some cases these procedures can be justified as one-time fixes. But often there is a temptation to become "addicted" to constant tinkering, and the results are not always satisfactory.
Actress and TV star Lisa Rinna is a good example. This beautiful 45 year old star of "Melrose Place" and "Dancing with the Stars" has always kept her body as toned as it was twenty years ago. But she did not like what she saw in her face. She became a fan of juvederm injections (www.juvederm.com), until one day she saw a picture of herself and decided to change course. Her words to the press were direct, as she noted she "looked like a freak", and needed to stop her regular regular visits to the plastic surgeons for a while.
Here is a photo taken recently, when she broke her story to the press last month.
Note the look of her cheeks, distinctly different from the look of toned muscles. Naturally she does tone her body mucles (very well, obviously!) by exercising. But the plastic surgery menu does not include exercise for the 22 muscles of the face.
Toned muscles always look more natural than injected ones. That's why people go to the gym to lift weights, not just shoot injections into their biceps! And nothing provides a better substrate for the skin than great tone on the underlying muscles.
In today's economy, people are looking for ways to save money by following the "DIY" or "do it yourself" model. Instead of going to a spa or medical setting to have your facial muscles toned (temporarily) using a $12,000 machine, why not capture the same results with your own machine. For less than the cost of one spa treatment, your own FaceMaster will become your favorite beauty secret, just like it is for hundreds of thousands of satisfied users.
It is clear that many people will want many services on their faces. But none of the surgeon's list will tone their facial muscles, in fact they usually need more toning after procedures. If you have had plastic surgery the FaceMaster is an ideal way to re-tone your facial muscles, and to maintain your youthful appearance, the natural way.
