TheDoctorsTV on Botox, Toe Amputation, and Brazilian Blowout with Formaldehyde Issues
The physicians on TheDoctorsTV fielded a lot of health issues again today that places the focus on procedures for fashion and image which risk the life and limb of men and women who are willing to go to extreme measures for appearing beautiful.
TheDoctorsTV and Beauty Health Risks
It should be shocking to anyone that a woman would be willing to amputate a toe in order to fit in a stylish narrow shoe! I watched the demonstration of how the procedure would be done on the foot to remove the little toe to make the foot more narrow for the sake of fashion. This is bordering on insanity! Imagine the shock of the lover that finds only four toes and a disfigured foot in the nakedness of the moment. It’s crazy to want to look one way in high heels and then show the insanity of your image when you bed the one you are trying to impress with your footwear…
I think that the chemicals in the hairspray and make-up have destroyed the brain function of women who undergo toe amputations! Would you want to be involved with someone who was so obsessed with narrow shoes and surgical procedures? Hardly…unless you are one of them, too!
Then Dr. Drew talked about the health risks associated with getting Botox that is not ‘good’ Botox! Is there that much difference between a neurotoxin and a batch of a neurotoxin that is not as potent as the original? Both kill cells and cause substantial health problems. But when young girls that have not even reached the age of puberty are looking for wrinkles and asking for Botox injections, we have reached the point of insanity and incredulity.
Do you remember those prized pictures of the Native American Indians whose faces wore the wrinkles of a long and difficult life. They were signs of living long and surviving the worst. They were a badge of courage and determination. The wrinkled faces were treasured with the authenticity of knowing the living legends of real people. Those were the days! The days before shallow women and men feared a line in one’s face as a flaw, instead of a natural process of aging. It’s one thing to take good care of your skin and quite another to inject Botox at the first sign of a wrinkle when you are so very, very young…
Then those people go out in the sun to be seen and expose their delicate skin to the harsh sun’s rays which age their skin even more. It’s recycled ignorance and an example of the types of people to avoid. They are shallow and lost in the disguise of beauty, rather than exhibiting a natural and vibrant energy with a genuine zest for living!
The Brazilian Blowout health issue regarding the disclosure about formaldehyde was an important reminder that the chemicals that are used to change a person’s hair can damage other parts of the body. I was glad to hear from the cosmetician who refuses to use these kinds of products on clients.
The same trend for straight hair will soon be replaced by a penchant for curly hair… Just wait and the fashion world will change its mind yet again in the cycles of fickleness and fanaticism. Then those stupid idiots will long for the days when they had their health and their curly hair before suffering the painful side effects of chemical toxicity.
The money spent on this type of product would be put to better use to get psychotherapy to learn to love your body and your hair the way it is. You were ‘Born This Way’ and there’s nothing that you need to do to be beautiful except to love who you are and how you appear.
I was impressed with the reconstructive surgery performed for the woman who could not close her eyelids and had other problems from a botched delivery at birth from forceps. I can’t stand doctors who use forceps with total disregard for the newborn’s body. The disrespect that this woman’s doctor showed affected her entire life. At least she has a chance of finding some relief from the deformity now with the only surgery that I can really justify.
The guy with the skull tatoos might think he is getting work and notoriety now, but how long will his fame last? He is already yesterday’s news and Lady Gaga will most likely never use him again in another video or song. Been there, done that… So he is going to have to live with his tats for the rest of his life and until he is older and wiser, he won’t even realize what a foolish choice he has made to make his body toxic with ink and chemicals. It’s art, but at what cost? I find it better to enjoy the art on some canvas other than the human skin!
Look…it’s wild and crazy that some people go to extremes to get noticed, get attention, and get approval or disgust. Those people are not in their right minds and need counseling to develop a healthy self-image and concept where they can accept themselves for the inner beauty that is more than skin deep which is everlasting and meaningful.
Kids in pageants, guys in music videos, and people in the chairs at their doctor’s or cosmetologist’s office need a mental health screening before the licensed professionals do any procedures to avoid these extreme fashion foibles.
