As you might remember, my husband and I have a PVR so we tape a lot of television shows and watch them when we have time. Well, last night we got around to watching the previous evenings episode of CSI New York. Did you see it? It was a great episode about a hit woman using Second Life to pick off her targets.

One of the things that caught my eye in that episode was that one of the characters, who ended up being the first victim on the show, had had cosmetic surgery to enhance her looks. I don’t even know if the procedure that she supposedly had done is even a real cosmetic surgery procedure or not, but apparently it was a special type of surgical thread used give her a minor face lift. If this is a real treatment it looks like it would be minimally invasive and as a result much easier and faster to have done!

At this point I can say that I’ve never had any cosmetic surgery done, but as the saying goes “never say never”. I mean, there are so many different cosmetic surgery procedures and treatments available these days that I’m sure more and more people have decided to have a little work done to either correct a flaw, enhance their looks or minimize the effects of aging.

Certainly if you are going to get any form of cosmetic surgery done you should be sure that you have your work done by a certified cosmetic surgeon. I mean it’s your body we’re talking about here – you want to have someone that specializes in the type of treatment you are having done and who has performed the procedure successfully time and time again. Right?

Take for example the medical staff at the SurgiCare clinic. This company has clinics throughout the UK and all of their doctors are GMC certified. SurgiCare employs some of the most respected surgeons in the UK. Looking at their site it sounds as if they put their patients first. They provide their patients with a thorough consultation that is meant to not only find out what the patient wants to have done and what their expectations are, but also to inform the patient of their choices and the total costs of the treatment.

The Surgicare Clinic website has quite a bit of information about all of the procedures and treatments that they specialize in. Looking through their site it looks like they do everything from Smart Lipo treatments to chemical skin peels, derma fillers, treatments for excessive sweating, facial contouring, acne treatments, laser hair removal, Lip enhancement, microdermabrasion, muscle relaxation treatments, semi permanent make up, teeth whitening, wrinkle treatment, weight loss surgery and an interesting sounding procedure called Non surgical 3D face lift.

If you’ve considered having a cosmetic surgery procedure done and you live in the UK do visit the SurgiCare website to see what they can do for you and to read up on the various treatments.

In the meantime I’m going to try to find out if the cosmetic surgery that I saw on CSI NY is really real. I’m intrigued!
