What's Hot Weddings and Cosmetic Surgery
A New Nose, Then the 'I Do'
By MARCELLE S. FISCHLER
Published: January 30, 2005
In the world of weddings, one of the latest trends is for various participants in the bridal party –most notably, the bride and the mother of the bride– to undergo some cosmetic enhancements before the Big Day. While the average U.S. ceremony costs about $22,000, according to top wedding planners, participants say the pictures of the nuptials last for generations and are often handed down for decades, if not centuries. So shouldn’t everybody look as good as possible?
In this section about plastic and cosmetic surgery, we bring you the stories and pictures of brides and others who underwent a cosmetic or surgical rejuvenation in preparation for a wedding. You’ll find, among others, an article about the wedding-cosmetic surgery trend in general, a touching article about a bride-to-be who lost massive weight but was left with yards of loose, hanging skin and no way to fit into a fashionable wedding dress. Yet another article tells about a woman who had to quickly find a surgeon to repair a rare disfigurement from a previous surgery that was badly botched.
CAUTION: Many before-and-after pictures of cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures are taken while the patient is nude or only partially clothed and can be disturbing to some. If you are in any way offended by nudity, please don’t click through to the pictures.
For more information about all aspects of cosmetic and plastic surgery, please visit CosmeticSurgery.com a website that specializes in all areas of rejuvenation surgery.
