Jake Gyllenhaal rumoured to have nose job

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

Hollywood star Jake Gyllenhaal may be looking to boost his credentials as a leading man with a little help from cosmetic surgery. The Prince of Persia star is rumoured to have had a rhinoplasty to make his nose more defined.

Make Me Heal reports that the 29-year-old star may have had a nose job to narrow the tip of his nose, reducing its wide and round appearance. Having already been voted one of the world’s 50 Most Beautiful People in 2006 by People magazine, Jake is evidently making the most of his looks.

Miami-based cosmetic surgeon Dr Michael Salzhauer agreed, stating: “Jake Gyllenhaal is flaunting an improved looking nose. The tip of his nose has been defined and narrowed. Looks fantastic and really gives his face a sculpted look.”

Plastic surgery is nothing new in the Gyllenhaal family, with Jake’s older sister Maggie also being rumoured to have had a nose job as well as a possible breast lift, eye lift, liposuction on her chin and even a mini neck lift.

The 32-year-old actress may also have had non surgical treatments to hold back the signs of ageing, such as chemical peels and Botox.

Jake’s career continues to go from strength to strength, following up his appearance in Disney’s animated feature Prince of Persia: Sands of Time this summer with upcoming lead roles in the romantic comedy Nailed, opposite Jessica Biel, and drama film Love and Other Drugs, alongside Anne Hathaway.

Liposuction claimed to be world’s most popular cosmetic treatment

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

A new study has suggested that liposuction is now the world’s most sought-after cosmetic surgery procedure, accounting for 18.8 per cent of all treatments carried out worldwide.

The fat removal procedure was previously identified as the world’s third most popular treatment, after breast augmentation and nose reshaping. However, a recent survey of cosmetic surgery treatments in 25 countries, carried out by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) revealed that breast augmentation and nose jobs now account for 17 and 9.4 per cent of surgeries, respectively.

The Irish Times reports that blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, has also risen in popularity to become the third most popular treatment at 13.5 per cent, overtaking rhinoplasty for the first time.

Non surgical treatments were also found to be on the rise, having now overtaken cosmetic surgery to account for 8.7 million treatments worldwide, compared to 8.5 million for more invasive treatments.

The top three non-surgical procedures were found to be toxin injections, which accounted for nearly a third of all non-surgical treatments, and collagen injections, at 20.1 per cent. Laser hair removal is now the world’s third most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment, accounting for 13.1 per cent of treatments.

ISAPS, which regulates cosmetic surgery treatments across the globe, also estimated that there are around 31,000 certified plastic surgeons working today. By choosing a certified cosmetic surgeon, patients can rest assured that their treatments are being carried out by safe and experienced hands.
