Keep Young and Beautiful with Cosmetic Surgery



‘Keep young and beautiful if you want to be loved’ – the words of the old song sung recently by Annie Lennox pervade a lot of women’s lives. Thoughts of reducing the aging process or rectifying facial features are now easily achieved by Botox treatments. Botox treatment is now one of the most popular choices for women that want to reduce wrinkles, as the process is non-intrusive, unlike other forms of cosmetic surgery. For women that are motivated to try Botox this year for the first time they can be certain of remarkable, fast results as the procedures are now quite simple.

For patients who wish to create a more symmetrical or sculpted appearance, facial implants offer a wide variety of ways in which to alter the structure of various facial features. Using facial implants, a physician can adjust the relationship between the major elements of the face: the chin, cheeks, brow, and jaw, creating a more pleasing look.

Face lifts are designed to reduce the slackness in the tissues of the face; a face lift tightens or excises muscle, fat and skin, producing a more youthful, rested appearance. Generally speaking, face lift procedures only address the two-thirds of the face, although a surgery can combine both face lift and eyelid surgery or browlift.

Breast augmentation is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures today. Breast implants are used during augmentation to increase the size and shape of the breast. When considering a breast augmentation to enhance you image, there are a variety of factors to evaluate.

Facial cosmetic surgery is done to make a person look younger. It involves removing excess skin to tighten the face to get rid of wrinkles, sags and bags from around the eyes, on the forehead, on the jaw, around the mouth, and on the neck and chin. Common problems are experienced after a surgery. They include skin discoloration, lose in nerve sensory where surgery was done, tissue injury, and irregular developing features.

Mind Games / Brain Games Benefits



Playing brain games or mind games are good for your mind. You have to let your mind work a little. Don't let your mind get more rest than it should.

A team of researchers led by Joe Verghese at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine asked over 400 participants to rate the extent to which they engaged in such cognitively demanding activities as reading, writing, crossword puzzles, playing games, playing music, and engaging in group discussions. The participants were also asked about the physical activities they pursued in their leisure time. Over the next 21 years, as ratings were made of their cognitive functioning, the cognitively engaged were least likely to develop a form of memory disorder known as vascular cognitive impairment, a broad form of memory loss associated with changes in the circulatory system.

Child Born with Second Penis in the Middle of His Back

Fetus in Fetu (FIF) is a rare and very mysterious medical condition that is said to have occurred (or at least is recorded to have occurred) less than ninety times throughout medical history. For the little boy born in Tianjin’s Children Hospital in China, the second penis in the middle of his tiny back is a medical first and even weirder than some other instances of this highly unusual phenomenon.


The baby presented no problems when it came into the world with the help of midwives on May 27, 2008, at the Hejian Maternity Center, which is part of Tianjin Children’s Hospital.

What seemed like a routine birth, however, soon turned into a story from Ripley’s Believe it or Not, as midwives and medical staff could not have been more surprised to see a little boy endowed with a second penis in the middle of his back.

Born to farmer dad, Li Jun, 30, and his wife, who live in Central China’s Henan Province, the extra penis was safely removed.

There are complicated theories about this condition that relate to the abnormal formation of twins in utero (parasitic twin theory), but this manifestation is just too weird for any of the medical books.

For now, doctors are content to say that after three hours of surgery, the extra penis is gone and the little boy is doing fine.
