One time treatment for cellulite offers hope for millions of women.

It is a dream come true for many women who suffer with unsightly lumps and bumps known as cellulite.

Diet and exercise seem to do little to impact the fatty tissue just below the surface of the skin.

Dr. Bruce Katz, director of the Juva Skin and Laser Center in New York City, introduced the Cellulaze, the first one-time laser treatment approved for cellulite by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Cellulite occurs when collagen bands under the skin pull down, causing hills of fat to push up – resulting in that infamous dimpled appearance.
“For the first time, we really actually have a laser that treats all three components of cellulite,” Katz said.

Katz threads a laser under the skin to break the collagen bands, smoothing the appearance of cellulite in just one session.

“The real ground-breaking difference here, is that the laser beam is split in two different directions,” he said. “It is the first time we have ever been able to do that.”

Tom Cruise is the poster boy for plastic surgery done well.

Male vanity aside, Cruise is a great example of age/gender appropriate procedures which produce masculine good looks.

And you don’t need to be a movie star to “freshen up”.

Men are flocking to surgeons to look as good as they feel and recapture their youthful glow in growing numbers.

After all of your hard work dieting and exercising you can end up producing something called runner’s face.

And I bet you didn’t even know it was a problem .

Dr. Brian S. Glatt, a board-certified plastic surgeon in New Jersey, calls that skinny, Skeletor-esque look some dedicated runners may unwittingly develop, runner’s face.

And he believes that it needs to be fixed.

Runner’s face generally occurs in both men and women ages 40+ who exercise to improve their body, and in doing so end up with a skeletal and bony face. When exercising, an athlete burns off fat beneath the layers of his/her skin. The marked loss of fatty tissue results in a loss of volume which leads to a prominent appearance of the bones, accelerated development of skin laxity and deepening of wrinkles. Though you may look like a 20-year-old from the neck down—your face will easily give away your age.

Men are going under the knife for plastic surgery procedures in larger numbers these days.

As baby boomers age there is a desire for to look as young as they feel.
