Michael Salzhauer, the Miami cosmetic surgeon who caused a stir with his supposed “Jewcan Sam” video to foster nose jobs, is behind with another viral video — a take on the renouned “Old Spice guy.”
This time, the owners of Bal Harbour Plastic Surgery Associates pushes re-chiseled everything. The YouTube ad goofs on a renouned Old Spice debate featuring a clean and pleasing dude on the beach. In Salzhauer’s version, the beefcake tells womanlike viewers their male can smell like him, though looking like him competence take some work.
Although guilty of stupid satire and lifting the aftershave’s signature whistle, Salzhauer competence equivocate debate this time. His prior mark featured a Jewish male removing his nose bound to attract a beautiful blonde. Although Salzhauer is Jewish, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons launched an ethics investigation. Salzhauer, aka Dr. Schnoz, has also offering giveaway nose jobs to Orthodox women looking to marry. The male isn’t bashful about publicity, so competence we advise he persevere a mark to chin augmentations? Mentoplasty was up 71 percent final year, according to a study.
Some interesting plastic surgery news has come out of the United Kingdom recently, as Douglas McGeorge, President of the British Association of Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, revealed that he has performed cosmetic surgery, including implants on teens under the age of 16 in order to help them stave off bullying problems.
McGeorge admitted that he had given a nose job to a 14-year old girl, after her parents approached him saying their daughter had been mercilessly bullied at three different schools because of her unique schnoz. the surgeon told the London Evening Standard that the girl was starting a new school . . . and wanted to fit in. I bumped into her later on and she was very confident. still, Mc George tried to stress that plastic surgery is clearly not a solution routinely offered for bullying.
A study conducted in the UK found that at least 40 percent of girls under the age of 16 have been bullied because of their appearance, and similarly roughly 30 percent of that same demographic would welcome plastic surgery in order to change their appearance.
You think about children whose ears stick out. Children are very cruel and there’s a lot of stigma attached to appearance, McGeorge said. the BAAPS President also acknowledged that he has done breast implants on girls of 12. it is necessary when one breast is developing and the other is not. he added, this reconstructive procedure allows them to have a normal adolescence. They can undress in the changing room.
While critics accuse McGeorge and any surgeon performing cosmetic procedures on young girls of catering to bullies, not helping self-image, and worse, of letting young immature girls modify their bodies to simply mimic their Hollywood idols.
It is not done for vanity; none of those things are done for vanity. I don’t think there would be a surgeon in the land who would do these kinds of procedures for vanity, he said.
Breast augmentation surgery is a major surgery that is typically not performed on females until they are at least 18 years old. most surgeons feel that gives girls’ bodies a chance to develop to their own full potential. the breast enlargement surgery involves an incision made under the breasts or around the nipple or through the armpit. the breast implants are inserted into the breast cavity either above or below the pectoral muscles. the breast implants can be inserted in their final size or they can go in as deflated shells and then be pumped up with saline fluid to reach the desired size.
The recovery period involves minimal arm movement for a few days, plenty of rest, and painkillers. There can be a lot of swelling, bruising, and discomfort for a few weeks or so after the breast augmentation surgery.
Many adult women do express increased self-confidence after having the breast enlargement surgery performed, but many surgeons would like to believe that at least women over the age of 18 do not have the maturity to understand the impact of their decision. whether these young pre-teens and teens have that mental capacity is still a question up for debate. one thing is certain, however, the number of plastic surgeries performed on teens is increasing each year. the lasting consequences of these rising number of teen procedures are yet to be seen.
A Miami doctor who was scolded by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for producing a video mocking Jewish noses has canceled a second contest revolving around a video, which was based on a similar theme, Religion News Service reported.
Dr. Michael Salzhauer, who is also Jewish – and known around Miami as “Dr. Schnoz” – created a music video called “Jewcan Sam: a Nose Job Love Song,” in which a yarmulke-wearing young man needs a nose job in order to get a girlfriend.
The video shows the man before and after his nose job, which was performed by Salzhauer.Salzhauer, an Orthodox Jew, said the video was produced as a “tongue-in-cheek parody,” according to the news service, playing up an old stereotype.
Salzhauer asked viewers to send in similar videos, and the winner would receive a trip to Miami.
In a March 13 statement, the society called the video “inappropriate,” and subsequently started an ethics probe into the matter, according to the news service.
“I do understand the ASPS’s point of view, though my intention was not to hurt anyone’s feelings, but to have a little fun,” Salzhauer said.
Salzhauer said he won’t take the video down from YouTube. so far, it has trafficked more than 130,000 hits – and Salzhauer is offering ‘plastic surgery scholarships’ to single Orthodox Jews who are in the market for rhinoplasty — and a spouse.
A plastic surgeon’s “Jewcan Sam (Nose Job Love Song)” music video may be a YouTube hit, but the tune has struck a sour note with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
The group is investigating whether Miami plastic surgeon and ASPS member Michael Salzhauer – who commissioned the song to promote his Bal Harbour plastic surgery practice – violated the ASPS code of ethics. ASPS has deemed the clip, which features a young, large-nosed and yarmulke-wearing man seeking rhinoplasty in order to win over an attractive female classmate, as “offensive and inappropriate.”
ASPS President Malcolm Roth told ABC News that a physician member can be put on probation, have benefits put on hold, lose membership and face board decertification if found guilty of breaching the group’s code of ethics.
The song, performed by a self-described “Jewish pop-punk band with a comic twist” called The Groggers, is intended to be “tongue-in-cheek,” says Dr. Salzhauer, who’s also known as “Dr. Schnoz” and “The Nose Job King of Miami.”
“It’s self-deprecating humor,” he says, adding that he, all 4 members of the band and the video’s director are Orthodox Jews. Dr. Salzhauer says he paid the Queens, N.Y.-based band $2,000 to write the song and flew them to Miami to film the video. As part of the deal, Dr. Salzhauer also gave Groggers singer L.E. Doug Staiman – who doubled as Doug, the video’s lovestruck protagonist – a free nose job. The first half of the video was shot before the surgery, and the second half was filmed 6 days after the procedure, says Dr. Salzhauer.
“It’s meant in jest, and it’s largely been received in jest,” he says, noting that he sent an e-mail with the video to his patients, and of the 1,000 who viewed it, not a single one sent a negative response. The YouTube video has been viewed nearly 100,000 times. “But I apologize if I offended anyone,” says Dr. Salzhauer. “That certainly wasn’t the intention.”
An ASPS spokesperson declined to comment on specifics of its inquiry into Dr. Salzhauer, but did say that the organization “takes this matter very seriously, and has initiated an investigation under its Code of Ethics, which clearly requires ASPS members to uphold the dignity and honor of the medical profession.”
