| Paris mulls surgery for eyelid
PARIS Hilton is considering plastic surgery to correct her drooping left eyelid, it has been claimed. The hotel heiress allegedly paid a recent visit to a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon's office with her sister Nicky to make enquiries. A source told the New York Post newspaper: "She wanted to fix her drooping left eyelid." Paris, 25, (currently working up to ten hours a day filming new movie The Hottie and the Nottie) has apparently been aggravating the problem by wearing tinted contact lenses. The Simple Life star has naturally brown eyes but has always worn blue tinted contact lenses to keep up her Barbie-style image. The source said: "Her eyes have been drying out lately. She is ignoring doctors' orders not to wear her tinted contacts." Paris' representative Elliot Mintz said: "To the best of my knowledge, Paris has never had any kind of cosmetic surgery and has not mentioned any medical procedures having to do with her eyes."

City women hit back over bad legs jibe
Norwich girls don't have the legs to match their fine city and let themselves down in the bedroom, according to a poll. The nationwide study by One Poll found our ladies have the worst legs in the country and the best pins in the country are to be seen on the streets of Brighton.But city-based model and former Miss Norwich Kerri Parker has rubbished the poll and says women here can stand tall with the best.“I think women in Norwich have got the best legs ever," said the 23-year-old. “People like Jordan are from Brighton and she's got nice legs, but she's had liposuction so that doesn't count.“All my Norwich friends have got really nice legs and if you go out in Norwich on a Friday and Saturday night everyone is wearing hotpants so they must have nice legs."Ms Parker, who features in a 2007 Byker Babes calendar, has also judged the Miss Norwich contest and travels around the country as a judge so is well placed to compare.She said: “It's definitely a load of rubbish.
Cutting reality-teens and cosmetic surgery
Local doctors talk about the misconceptions about self-image that lead teens to seek cosmetic procedures and surgery, and the dangers of going under the knife too young.
By Melonie Magruder / Special to The Malibu TimesMore than 326,000 procedures, including rhinoplasty (reconstruction of the nose), otoplasty (pinning back of the ears), liposuction, breast augmentation, cheek and chin implants, male breast reduction and something called "buccal fat extraction" for perceived chubby cheeks, were performed in 2005- not on adults, but on American children aged 18 and younger, according to the American Society for Plastic Surgery."Cosmetic surgery and 'makeovers' for teens are something now featured on the Disney Channel," said Dr. Annie Thiel, a family therapist who has practiced in Malibu for more than 30 years.
Plastic surgery smack down
Sure, Janet Jackson's plastic-surgery-enhanced nose looks good -- if you compare it to siblings Michael and LaToya. By most standards, though, the nose looks overdone and, well, plastic. But if Miss Jackson's nasty nose is an example of the "bad," to whom do we look for the "good"? Ashlee Simpson. Her fans debate whether or not she should have tinkered with the "I Am Me" original version, but most onlookers would agree that the surgery itself was a success. Rumored to have undergone a new, less-invasive form of surgery that requires less time to heal, the difference is dramatic yet natural. .

Dr. Kenneth Sanders tells Ron, "Close your eyes. Let me just look at a couple of things."
Ron says, "I looked in the mirror and I thought I don't particularly like what I see."
That's what started Ron on this journey.
"The things I think that bothers me the most just looking at myself is laugh lines and the eyes probably would be the other thing," he says.
