Move over blond bombshell, Allure finds a changing face of beauty over the past 20 years

Posted on by

We found a great article on ABC News about the evolution of the American definition of beauty.

From the article:

  • There isn’t the blond bombshell mold that everyone has to fit in to be considered attractive.
  • You can be old or young, dark skinned or light, slim or voluptuous.
  • Models ARE younger, thinner and prettier than the every woman because they’re models.
  • What’s interesting is the underlying social commentary that while the value people place on being beautiful has increased … there is a wider range.
  • People are more interested in improving on their own assets instead of mimicking what models do.
  • There’s also an emphasis on a “natural look,” even if that takes time to achieve.
  • The biggest trend in the industry is anti-aging skin care. Now it’s synonymous with health.
  • Use of sunscreens with higher SPFs — so much so that people use it as part of their daily routine.

Dr. Rina Shinn of Adonis Aesthetics is a strong advocate for cosmetic surgery that enhances a woman’s natural beauty. There is a beauty in “still being you” when you are healed.

Here are 7 main reasons patients opt for cosmetic surgery.

  1. Improve confidence, psychological well-being and quality of life, both mentally and physically.
  2. Feel better about yourself. Have the outside match the way you feel on the inside.
  3. Physical changes: Loose skin, breast reduction
  4. Pregnancy: It can damage the breasts, skin and the abdominal wall. Women want to have the body back that they had before they had children.
  5. Aging. Facial cosmetic surgery can help address wrinkles, sun damage and loose skin.
  6. Change elements you dislike.
  7. Improve a tired look: Improve an angry, frowning look.

Dr. Shinn was recently interviewed for an article in the Chieftain.

It explains her reasons for choosing to practice aesthetic surgery:
“It offers a chance to help people in a different way. I am fascinated by all of this new technology. There are new procedures and technologies every day. In this field, I send my patients away with a smile. I’m used to seeing them in pain after surgery. This is a very nice change.”

The article explains how Dr. Shinn is also the first physician in Colorado to provide Body Jet: by far the most gentle type of liposuction that will transform your body and leave you with an amazing new shape.
