hey,


i have heard there is a skin lightening surgery they perform in asia, has anyone else heard about this? Its suppose to get you light, like when you where a baby light. Appearently you would have the surgery and then take medication like pills or injections for maintenance, it cost like 9300 usd . Its done in the phillipines anyone have more info on this surgery. please post.

Imagine a life without pills, creams etc and permanent light skin.

I have not heard about this surgery but curious to know what would they do to your body during this surgery. If you have to take pills or get shots to maintain the look then how can you imagine having such complexion without pills or cream. There has got to be a catch. It also sounds dangerous, not to mention expensive.

Is this the kind of treatment you were talking about?
Truly white—not just lighter—skin - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos (http://showbizandstyle.inquirer.net/lifestyle/lifestyle/view/20081031-169373/Truly-whitenot-just-lighterskin)
But Mexico is great for you, its just around the corner compared the philippines.

I knew deep down there was something like that out there, but couldn't put my finger on it. I've seen stars go lighter over the years even months and wonder what they use. I'm sure it's the same procedure that the porn starts use to bleach their privates. If I hear anything I will post it.

however this procedure will give you an pinkish undertone and not the golden one I am opting for. Rufa Mae Quinto, a philippine celebrity, is said to have undergone this treatment. But i like her before color more than the color she has afterwards. And she can get away with the pinkish undertone because shes very light, but not me.

Nice...but I don't think that pink undertone will wok for everybody. You have to be extremely light before hand
