Body Enhancements: A New Age of Body Re-Construction


The image of beauty has changed from era to era. In the late 1990's it was desired to be stick thin, long and lean. But, the 2000's brought about a new appreciation for a more curvaceous, voluptuous woman. A small waist, topped off with wide hips and a big booty is what is now looked at as having the ideal shape. Having the "Video Vixen" look, like Toronto video girl, Melyssa Ford is one that is highly favored and the image of sexiness. Within, the entertainment industry there has been more and more speculation on body enhancements. Hip Hop artist, Nikki Minaj is the most recent example of skepticism, due to her large assets. Nikki has been accused of having butt injections done as well as wearing butt pads. Nikki, of course denies any allegation of having surgeries. But, what celebrity admits to that. Even those who have had the most extreme procedures done, like Michael Jackson, have denied it. Also rapper Ice T's wife, Coco has also been accused of having surgeries, which she also denies. Kim Kardashian, who is famous for her curves, denies the accusations of surgeries as well. Apparently, her first husband has made statements on record that she has done surgeries that he paid for. These woman rely on their self image as a marketing tool, whether they are doing eye candy modeling or performing, a sexual image sells in the entertainment industry. Women in society now have a need to exhibit the same image, and now there are a lot of procedures and products available that promote different methods which help enhance your body in the form of pills, surgical procedures, injections, creams and implants. In Brazil, there has been numerous cases of badly done surgeries, which end up scarring customers for life because they offer surgical procedures for less, but the price of going cheap has hurt a lot of people. There are many butt enhancing pills, now available like BBB formula and Femimore. These pills, claim to enhance your curves as a spot treatment allowing you to gain weight in specific areas of the body. How effective are these pills? who knows but, the cost is ranging between $100 - $220 per bottle and results are not expected until at least 12 months on the program. That definitely is costly. There is also silicone injections, which is not a particularly safe method and can also be costly. Women should embrace the body they have been created with. There is nothing wrong with self improving yourself if that will make you happy but, feeling less beautiful because you don't look like the girl on a magazine is not the way to go. There are many ways that you can naturally build muscle and contour your shape by changing your diet and doing the right exercises.
