It seems as though just about anyone can have his/her own reality show on television these days, or at least be a part of one. The new VH1 show “You’re Cut Off!” features nine very pampered and fortunate “spoilistas” who find out that they have been cut off from their family fortune. One of the participants, Erica Rose, may be familiar to those who watch ABC’s “The Bachelor” since she is a former contestant. She is also the daughter of a prominent Houston, Texas plastic surgeon, Dr. Franklin Rose.

Aside from the luxuries of her family’s wealth, Rose also has her father’s practice and medical spa at her disposal. Along with nose surgery, she regularly undergoes Botox ® injections to maintain her youthful appearance, although she is only in her mid 20s. The idea behind the new reality series is much like a “princess rehab” to help them realize that they must change their ways or be cut off for good. By undergoing plastic surgery procedures at such a young age, they can become addicted and reach a point when they no longer look younger, but disfigured. The media’s pressure to look perfect leads young women, like Houston’s Erica Rose, to undergo breast augmentation, liposuction, and/or tummy tuck surgery. However, most of these procedures may be better suited for women who are slightly older and no longer considering having children.

If you are interested in plastic surgery, it is best to consult with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon. In Houston, David R. Luethcke, M.D., F.A.C.S. performs various face, breasts, and body enhancing procedures. Prospective patients can learn more regarding their procedure on his website.

For many women, having large, voluminous breasts is the epitome of the feminine physique; however, those who have overly large breasts are often in constant pain due to the excess weight. Oftentimes, women who are active in sports and fitness routines find that their breasts hinder their ability to fully partake in an activity. To remedy this bothersome feature, women choose to undergo a plastic surgery procedure – breast reduction surgery.

Recently, it was reported that Romanian tennis player Simona Halep underwent a breast reduction due to severe back pain and interference in her performance. Like Halep, other athletic females who have large breasts may find relief with this procedure. In Houston, breast reduction surgery is frequently performed by Christopher K. Livingston, M.D., F.A.C.S., P.A., a board certified plastic surgeon. He has the experience and training to achieve natural-looking results for women who suffer from this condition. By removing excess fat, tissue, and skin, Dr. Livingston can help to provide women with the ability to become more engaged in physical activities, as well as attain a more balanced body shape through breast reduction surgery.

Those in The Woodlands area who seek a breast reduction specialist to help reduce neck, shoulder, and back pain may wish to contact Dr. Livingston. After the procedure, many patients have found that they are able to become more active in their favorite sports and/or fitness routines. Breast reduction surgery ultimately helps to lessen the pain, discomfort, and/or dissatisfaction that is previously associated with overly large breasts.

Sugar Land breast reduction surgeon Dr. Livingston may be reached at his Houston practice. Prospective patients are encouraged to contact him to learn more regarding the procedure.
