A few days ago, an American mom-of-two revealed how she spent $10,000 to get Pippa Middleton’s butt.
Jill Fizgerald (pictured above) said: “When I saw how men all over the community reacted with desire for Pippa’s shapes, I established to take serious measures.”
She began studying techniques online and discovered physician Dr. Constantino Mendieta who provided the “Pippa Buttocks Lift” for $10,000.
And the 43-year-old was thrilled with the results, saying: “Everything just fitted much better, in a charming way, like Pippa’s bridesmaid’s outfit did on her.”
We spoke exclusively to Dr. Constantino Mendieta about this rear-end trend, and he tells us that actually, the interest in Pippa has been pipped by the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian.
LOS ANGELES – Jessica Simpson’s weight has been the subject of intense media scrutiny for years, from too tiny for her Daisy Dukes to the infamous “mom jeans” cookout. But is it fair that the pop star is now being widely condemned for gaining "too many" pregnancy pounds?
Must every female star look like Victoria Beckham or Miranda Kerr with a bun in the oven?
Bootylicious behinds like Pippa Middleton and Kim Kardashian have overtaken the breast fixation of the USA.
In the eloquent argument by HBO's Kenny Powers of "Eastbound & Down," the rebounding baseballer waxes on the physical female attributes, "It’s no mystery that ass has always been tits’ greatest enemy. It’s almost like a Muslim-Jewish thing, but with tits and ass."
So much so that Board Certified Plastic SurgeonDr. Constantino Mendieta, a Miami-based physician raised in Los Angeles, has never been busier with his perfeced gluteal sculpting techniques that use a person's own fat, removed from unwanted areas and refined and injected to create a perfect sweetheart bum.
UK paper dailymail.co.uk reports one Miami, Florida resident went to see the city's famous Butt surgeon, Dr. Constantino Mendieta.
After watching the Royal Wedding on TV, Jenny Fizgerald wanted the Pippa Middleton butt. 'When I saw Pippa in that dress, I knew I wanted what she had'.
Dr. Mendieta is renowned for his exceptional body sculpting skills based on his industry text, The Art of Gluteal Sculpting. Read our interview with Dr. Mendieta here. Dr. Mendieta recently worked with Jenny, who elected his popular $13,000 (not $10,000 as reported by the Mail) 'Pippa butt lift' Jenny was sold on the testimonials to Dr. Mendieta's procedure of using one's own fat redistributed where it needs to go. Usually abdominal fat is used for grafting to the buttocks.
The unique procedure creates dramatic and proportionally beautiful results.
Dr. Mendieta is also in production filming a reality series with 44 Blue (Pit Bulls & Parolees) based on the busy office and his family life.
A single mum-of-two splashed out £6,000 for a bum like Pippa Middleton’s – and her boosted behind helped her bag her own Prince Charming. Unlucky-in-love Jenny Fizgerald, 43, worried her rear was too flat and feared men would never look at her again six years after her divorce.
Jenny, from Miami, Florida, said: “When I saw how men around the world responded with adoration for Pippa's curves, I decided to take drastic action."
“I didn't want a huge bum - I wanted one that was pert and elegant like Pippa's. When I saw her in that dress on TV, I knew I wanted what she had. I'd always hated my shape, especially after having two kids, and it left me feeling terrible about myself. I looked in the mirror and hated what I saw. It was hard to meet men because I didn't think I looked nice. I was scared about what would happen if they ever saw me without my clothes on.”
After researching cosmetic procedures on the internet, she discovered Dr Constantino Mendieta MD who offered the “Pippa Butt Lift” for £6,000, and began saving.
Cellulite is a problem that affects 85% of women (and a respectable percentage of men too) over the age of 20.
But until now, cellulite was treated mainly with topical creams, exerciseand intensive rolling massage techniques. Even advanced Lipo procedures were largely ineffective because of the fibrous nature of cellulite fat cells.
Not just cellulite, but fat deposits on chins, arms, thighs and tummies that are resistant to exercise are bedeviling to many people who are within normal weight ranges.
But there are fantastic affordable breakthroughs in deep penetrating lasers, sound waves and new Lipo techniques that stimulate fat cells to spill their contents out and either melt away (via a suctioning cannula) or be excreted through the body's natural elimination process.There is even a breakthrough skin firming and perfecting body makeup that creates a perfect canvas of skin topically to further boost confidence.
Hmmm…I wonder what could have interested me in this topic… perhaps my four pregnancies? Especially the pregnancy with twins that meant my belly carried around 14lbs of babies? Hmmmm… nonetheless, Dr. Bloch –recognized as one of the foremost practitioners of modern Plastic Surgical techniques and who appeared on Oprah — gives the scoop after Breezy Mama was, ahem, for some reason wondering if there is a solution outside of surgery or even sit-ups alone on how to get rid of excess skin after pregnancy has stretched out your belly and left it with some, er, let’s be honest, a whole lotta skin.
Can sit ups alone reduce excess skin after pregnancy?
No. There are no muscles in the skin so sit-ups have no effect in tightening the skin other thanincreasing muscle mass and tone and thereby adding underlying bulk which may give the illusion of skin tightening.
I’ve read that reducing carbs from foods other than veggies can reduce excess skin — any thoughts on that?
