Donatella Versace isn’t known for having the most natural style, but we definitely didn’t expect
the designer to call herself out about it.
The 57-year-old spoke during Sunday’s Vogue Festival, revealing that it takes a lot of work to get her well-crafted look. Aside from the fact that she can’t remember the last time she wore flats, Donatella admits that it takes more than mother nature to maintain her appearance.
“I’m not like this genetically,” she said. “I use tones of cream and take care of my hair and skin.”

Philosopher
Alexander Edmond
A
‘Necessary Vanity’
While living in Rio de Janeiro in 1999,
I saw something that caught my attention: a television broadcast of a Carnival
parade that paid homage to a plastic surgeon, Dr. Ivo Pitanguy. The doctor led
the procession surrounded by samba dancers in feathers and bikinis. Over
a thundering drum section and anarchic screech of a cuica, the singer praised Pitanguy for “awakening the
self-esteem in each ego” with a “scalpel guided by heaven.”
It was the height of Rio’s sticky summer and the city
had almost slowed to a standstill, as had progress on my anthropology doctorate
research on Afro-Brazilian syncretism. After seeing the parade, I began to
notice that Rio’s plastic surgery clinics were almost as numerous as beauty
parlors (and there are a lot of those). Newsstands sold magazines with
titles like Plástica& Beauty, next to Marie Claire. I assumed that the
popularity of cosmetic surgery in a developing nation was one more example of
Brazil’s gaping inequalities. But Pitanguy had long maintained that
plastic surgery was not only for the rich: “The poor have the right to be
beautiful, too,” he has said.
The beauty of the human body has raised distinct
ethical issues for different epochs. The literary scholar Elaine Scarry pointed out that
in the classical world a glimpse of a beautiful person could imperil an
observer. In his “Phaedrus” Plato describes a man who after beholding a
beautiful youth begins to spin, shudder, shiver and sweat. With the
rise of mass consumption, ethical discussions have focused on images of female
beauty. Beauty ideals are blamed for eating disorders and body
alienation. But Pitanguy’s remark raises yet another issue: Is beauty a
right, which, like education or health care, should be realized with the help of
public institutions and expertise?
Recommendations/Summary/Conclusion
Recommendations:
1. You should carefully consider the effects you are seeking and research the
procedures available prior to a consultation
2. If possible, you should seek advice from your General Practitioner (GP) to
ensure that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure in question.
Your GP will have knowledge of reputable specialist practitioners in your
area and can give you impartial advice about choosing a practitioner.
Furthermore, your GP can help you to interpret any claims that are made
in advertisements.
3. If you have a medical condition, allergy or are taking medications your GP
will have important information which should be passed to the surgeon.
4. Consultations should be with the plastic surgeon who will do your
procedure and not with a representative from the clinic. Be comfortable
with your choice of surgeon.
5. Ensure that you fully understand the expected outcome from the
procedure, which will come from a thorough consultation with your
surgeon. Ensure also that you understand potential complications from
your procedure.
6. Establish the costs of your procedure and what is included/excluded from
these costs. Ensure that you understand what the price of your procedure
covers, particularly in terms of aftercare and any revision surgery which
may be necessary.
7. You should not choose a service on the basis of price alone. Avoid being
tempted by the offer of discounted prices/incentives. An advance deposit
to secure a surgery date is discouraged.
8. You should not feel pressured into making a decision to agree to surgery.
A cooling‐off period of approximately 7 ‐ 14 days between the
consultation and surgery is advisable. You should have a second
consultation with your surgeon before making a final decision.
9. Prior to any procedure, you should identify what follow‐up care and
medical support you will need after surgery has been completed and
where this care will be provided. Make sure that there are good
arrangements for your aftercare both while you are in hospital and
following your discharge. Ensure that you know who to contact if you
should have any questions or problems.
10. Ensure that you fully understand any agreements or consent forms that
you are asked to sign and ensure that all your questions have been
answered to your satisfaction before signing
Summary:
What we have learned while we did
this thesis/blog is that doing plastic surgery is sometimes good but has a lot
of risks, like plastic surgeries can sometimes fail and can make your face a
lot worse and it will cost a lot just to
fix your face when the surgery fails and by fixing it, it will not be the face
that you had when you were born
For our Conclusion:
Cosmetic surgeries must not be done to any one,but only for people who suffers deformation or have a problem resulting from an incident. Cosmetic surgery is something not necessary for people to have, because God had given us a face and a body that can function and can do its work properly. So you should look to those poor kids and poor people that have deformation and compare yourself to them,so you can see how lucky to what you have and also you should thank God everyday single day for what he gave to you and thank him for not putting you in that person;s place
