"Ladies!, you probably know this moment, too: You ask the
polite shoe salesman to bring you that snakeskin lace-up stiletto or navy
ballet flat in a 9 or 7 or whatever, and he brings a shoe that's two sizes too
small, purring a coy, "It's the only size left, do you want to just
trrrrrry it?" It's a valiant effort, but inevitably you gawk, like what,
am I supposed to just cut off my toes to fit into that?
Well, maybe. For years now, plastic surgery to alter women's
feet to look better and fit better in shoes has been on the rise. (Doctors can
even make your shoes feel better, thanks to strategic Botox injections on the
balls of your feet.) Now, as The New York Times reports today, these operations
are apparently more popular than ever, so if you thought women's vanity was
limited to our faces, chests, and love handles, well, you're wrong. Plastic
surgery is now a lucrative head, shoulders, knees and toes game—emphasis on the
toes.
To prove their point, the Times highlights one Beverly Hills
doctor, Dr. Ali Sadrie, who says these elective, cosmetic foot surgeries are so
popular that he coined cute little names for them all, so patients can
conveniently order them like they're choosing the Mai Tai at Dry Bar (except
scarier). These procedure names range from the Perfect 10 (toe shortening) to
the Model T (toe lengthening) to the Cinderella, where Dr. Sadrie simply alters
your foot to the shape of a shoe you want to wear, but can't. Because, you
know, why buy another pair of shoes if your foot doesn't fit them? That would
be crazy".

I cant imagine, dis world is turning to something else.
ReplyDeleteA tremendous lump of online shoe customers experience the ill effects of the modest shoe condition. This ongoing condition shows at whatever point you see a couple of shoes on proposal at an extraordinarily limited cost. Since it is modest, many will purchase and this isn't the most ideal approach to buy.Gold Stilettos
