As any normal girl would do….I turn on the TV, or flip through a magazine, and see some of the worlds most sought after celebrity faces and bodies and wonder…is that really what they look like? All perfect and perky? With no bumps on their noses and no wrinkles around their baby blue eyes?
We all wonder….what would it be like if we were a little slimmer…or a little bustier… or had a booty like J.Lo?
We decided that it’s time to get down to business. What is really going on behind the velvet ropes and local anesthesia? What is happening in the world of celebrity plastic surgery?
For these answers…we went to the BEST OF THE BEST!
Dr. Alan Bienstock ( shown here, with The Luxury Spot’s own Stephanie, at the September 5th NY Fashion Week Launch of Ottavia et Emma) is a world-renowned Plastic Surgeon to the stars. Based here in NYC…with another office in Princeton, NJ, Dr. Bienstock has been giving the faces and bodies of celebs something to smile about. (sans smile lines..of course!)
Here is our first question for Dr. Bienstock:
We have heard about plenty of celebs getting nose jobs. Some have said it was due to a ‘deviated septum’. What is this condition, and is it possible that they are just using this as a cover up?
There are celebrities who in all reality have a deviated septum, which can cause nasal obstruction, snoring, and make it difficult to breathe. A deviated septum can have an impact in the tonal quality of voices during speech and singing and can make it impossible for some individuals to breathe adequately.
However, The correction of a nasal hump or widened, bulbous nasal tip is purely a cosmetic procedure known as a Rhinoplasty . This can be incorporated with repair of a deviated septum but the cosmetic portion must be distinguished from the reconstructive. Some individuals in the media will claim that they have had a deviated septum repair when in reality they had a formal cosmetic rhinoplasty or nose job.
