Actress Dana Delaney has said that following problems with Botox injections, she has been put off cosmetic surgery for life.
The Body of Proof star told Prevention that she chose to have Botox injections seven years ago after they were recommended by her dermatologist. However when the Botox was injected, the needle hit a nerve causing a large hematoma (localized swelling filled with blood).
A new machine that promises to freeze away the flab has been developed by scientists. Reportedly cheaper than liposuction and with patients able to go home almost immediately, the new procedure is sure to spark plenty of interest in cosmetic surgery enthusiasts.
The new machine is known as the ‘CoolSculpting Device’. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have already approved it’s use and one machine is already operating in a London clinic.
Tanning enthusiasts are being warned away from tanning injection Melanotan. The drug, which costs around £250 for a course, is illegal in the UK.
Recent reports have shown that the tanning injection’s popularity is on the increase, partly because some people are looking to keep their all-year tan without the cancer risks associated with tanning beds. However Melanotan can leave users looking as though they have been “Tango’d”, a reference to the popular bright orange fizzy drink.

According to our latest research, just over a third of cosmetic surgery patients are fully happy with their results.
SimplyCosmeticSurgery.com asked a number of cosmetic surgery patients how they felt about the results of their surgery. Just 37% of respondents said they were happy with their results, with 37% saying they were dissatisfied and 26% stating they had mixed emotions.
Cosmetic surgery is no longer a taboo subject. In the early days, many patients did not want to admit to having had any form of cosmetic work, however with more and more celebrities explaining to newspapers and magazines about their surgery, ordinary women are now happier to discuss their own experiences under the knife in the open.
Hollywood star Julia Roberts has vowed never to get Botox as she wants her children to be able to be able to easily read her emotions.
“I want my kids to know when I’m p***ed, when I’m happy and when I’m confounded,” she said in an interview with Elle magazine. “Your face tells a story and it shouldn’t be a story about your drive to the doctor’s office.”
