Aniston: They're real, and they're spectacular
Jennifer Aniston's not losing any sleep over rumors that she recently had plastic surgery. In a new interview with People magazine, the former Friends star said recent reports that she went under the knife to have her nose reshaped and cleavage enhanced were greatly exaggerated. After Aniston was seen leaving the office of a prominent L.A. cosmetic surgeon earlier this month, her rep confirmed she "had a procedure done to correct a deviated septum that was incorrectly done over 12 years ago." The tabloids quickly seized on the opportunity to suggest that Aniston had actually had a full-blown nose job and perhaps thrown in a boob job while she was at it, much to the actor's apparent amusement. "It's funny. I had [a deviated septum] fixed-best thing I ever did. I slept like a baby for the first time in years," Aniston told People.
A primer on breast implants
Tired of not filling out swimsuits and T-shirts to her satisfaction, 32-year-old Kristin Brackemyre decided it was time to get some serious breasts. But before that could happen, she knew she had to do some serious homework. She and her lawyer boyfriend researched breast-augmentation surgery as if they were preparing a case for trial. After three years of contemplation and scrutiny, Brackemyre got saline breast implants in August from Dr. Joseph Grzeskiewicz at La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre in California. Today, she wears a C-cup bra and describes her surgery and her new figure as 'amazing'. "I feel so much better about putting on clothes, wearing bras and just the fact that I now need a bra," she says. "They (her new breasts) just make me feel better about myself." Plastic surgeons wish all breast augmentation patients would be such diligent consumers.
