We are frequently contacted by media networks such as Discovery & Discovery Health, and Canada's SkinDeep TV series.  We are contributing authors for Skin Deep Magazine, and have also been mentioned in magazines such as Details, Self & Elle.   Others include Time International Magazine, Australia's That's Life! Magazine as well as independent journalists and authors for information, interviews and volunteers.  For more involvement, please see below.

We promote a positive and healthy outlook on cosmetic plastic surgery and seek to educate others on their options and how to go about it correctly.  Our primary goals are to eradicate the stigma often associated with cosmetic plastic surgery and to portray a realistic view of aesthetic betterment through surgical means.

Here is a partial collection of infomercials, studio tapings, video inserts, pilots, news stories, etc, related to media coverage that we have been involved with relating to cosmetic surgery.  Many of our visitors' appearances are not featured in this section.  Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in speaking to patients, gaining materials or contacting subjects for interviews.  We strive to eliminate the negativity towards elective cosmetic surgery that many people in society have.  We believe that anyone has the right to improve their self confidence through surgical means without scrutiny from the masses.
