Many people either cringe or squeal when they hear the term, ‘The Hills,” or the name Heidi Montag. As some may know from watching the news earlier this year, she has come out of her cocoon revealing a tweaked, mannequin looking, new self.
According to abcnews.com, Heidi had 10 procedures performed in 10 hours including breast enlargements, chin reduction, nose job, ears pinned back, lipo, brow lift, etc. At 23 years old most would think these actions are quite extreme especially for a beautiful girl who looked just fine with the skin she was given. Now critics have been accusing Montag of addiction but she begs to differ, “I think I just look like a different, improved version of myself,” she said.
Her doctor felt as if the procedures were perfectly safe but a fellow doctor challenges this. There are people saying that the reason she did do all 10 surgeries in one sitting was to minimize the times to go under anesthesia, this can be unsafe for the patient.
“You’re pushing the envelope there definitely, from a medical point of view, where you’re going to set up complications,” said Dr. Thomas Romo, a plastic surgeon at Lenox Hill Hospital. “And that’s irresponsible from a medical point of view. … My ethics would say that you don’t put your patient at that risk.”
Are young people getting plastic surgery too soon or too often? What kind of role models are we giving our youth?
Thinking about getting lipo or a breast implants? Please consult your physician first and please note: we do not support the abuse of plastic surgery.
What are your opinions of Heidi’s surgeries?
