The New 2010 Beauty Procedure : Stem Cell Facelift And Suzanne Somers To Get One In February

Beauty experts are saying that stem-cell facelifts will be the new beauty procedure in 2010. And actress/author Suzanne Somers has been telling folks worldwide, that she will become the poster child for the cutting edge surgery. She has already hinted to talk show titan Larry King, that she wants to promote the beauty project on his show.

And the National Enquirer says that the 63-year-old blonde beauty will undergo a stem-cell facelift and breast lift this February.

So we thought we would take a closer look at this new plastic surgery technique. First, this kind of facelift harnesses the power from your own stem-cells. Science had discovered back in 2002, that liposuctioned fat contains stem-cells.

For example, the fat in your back, is one location where surgeons can harvest the stem cells through liposuction. When this fat is injected into the face, experts can give back volume to the contours, plump up cheeks, make pores less visible, and give the patient a return to youthfulness. And when injected into the breasts, the look is softer and more natural. The stem-cell breast lift encourages natural fat growth, so the plumped-up areas do not feel like an implant.

Some well-respected Hollywood plastic surgeons have already been performing these stem-cell procedures, like Dr. Richard Ellenbogen. But there are some limitations, he says:
"Stem cells cannot accomplish everything in many cases, so it should be noted that the skin must also be tightened if it is too loose, or neck muscles may need to be tightened for the heavier neckline."
Suzanne Somers has taken a lot of heat for her enthusiastic lifestyle philosophy and books. She takes tons of vitamins and uses bio-identical hormones, doesn't care for chemotherapy to fight cancers, and so on. And she's said to be working on a new book about anti-aging. She plans to document her February stem-cell facelift with before and after photos.

Is Suzanne a youth-obsessed dodo? Maybe to some, but we have to admit, the woman at 63, still looks incredible. Sure, there are rumors of several plastic surgery procedures she has had already to stop the aging clock. We don't think she needs any more work. The top photo shows Suzanne at an event this past January. And the photo below, depicts the beauty on the red carpet last September.

Dr. Tony Youn, a Detroit-area plastic surgeon, told the Enquirer, that Suzanne is right on the money about her knowledge of stem-cell facelifts.

"Stem-cell facelifts work by liposuctioning fat from the patient, and separating the stem cells from the fat cells," he says.

"Because stem cells replicate, when they are injected into the cheeks and frown lines, they rejuvenate the older facial tissue. This is often done in combination with a traditional facelift, but it can also be injected without performing surgery."

We look forward to 'fat' February facelift day for Suzanne Somers!
