Edmonton, Alberta -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2014 -- Celebrity cosmetic surgery, when it goes wrong, is high profile and spread across the media for all the world to see. But why does this happen, especially as celebrities would appear to have every resource they need to ensure a great result from their cosmetic surgery procedures. And for the general public thinking about a different look as winter moves into spring – what lessons can they learn to avoid the same problems and avoid being the subject of a cosmetic surgery ‘horror story’ themselves?

To consider the often complex issues surrounding celebrity cosmetic surgery, the host of Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka welcomes board certified plastic surgeon Dr Donald Kress from Frederick, Maryland. Celebrity cosmetic surgery is a special interest area for Dr Kress, who is also the author of a recent book on plastic surgery, “Trust Me I’m A Plastic Surgeon.”

In this in-depth interview, Dr Lycka & Dr Kress begin by considering why celebrities seem to have such problems with their plastic & cosmetic surgery, the role of the media in reporting it and the dangers of being treated as ‘special’. The two doctors then move on to a discussion of the top 3 cosmetic surgery procedures likely to be chosen as spring approaches, and the pitfalls and dangers awaiting the unprepared consumer if they do not make wise choices. Dr Kress shares many interesting anecdotes which illustrate precisely why people must be on their guard when selecting plastic & cosmetic surgery procedures and who they entrust to perform them.
