Plastic surgery bits and pieces: roundup

Wow - just when I was starting to get worried that celebrities had given up on plastic surgery...

Experts: Lindsay Lohan Got Filler in Her Lips Before Jail. Not exactly a peer-reviewed journal, but fascinating nonetheless. Was it Restylane? Or Juvederm? The world holds its breath...

Teenage singer Charice gets Botox for 'Glee' debut. I admit, I really have no idea who this young Filipina is (am I showing my age?), but I hear that Glee is quite a popular show. I understand one wants to make a good impression, but why did this beautiful 18 year old think she needed Botox???

Vampire facelifts: Cosmetic surgery's crazy new trend. Ditto for the whole Twilight phenomenon. But the plastic surgeon's responses in this Salon interview are pretty entertaining.

Don't rule out plastic surgeons yet
. That's right. No dinosaurs here.

And finally, I leave you with this heartwarming story that has nothing to do with plastic surgery (but yes, there is still some surgery involved).
