Digitaly Beautifully.

We have all heard the saying "a picture can say a thousand words" and with image enhancing technology software like Adobe Photoshop CS3, this has never been more true.

Take a look a good look at most picture's in magazine's and all you will see is celebrities looking flawless, yet the picture's you are really seeing are usually doctored or airbrushed.

Airbrushing has long been used to alter photographs in the pre digital era. In technical hands it can be used to help hide faults within the image, now with programs like Adobe photshop or the many other photo editing software.

Digital Technology can liposuck you, hide every fault from bumps to lumps, wrinkles to crinkles, complexion, hair, cellulite and teeth which are all digitally enhanced and every imperfection is fixed to acheive a flawless look..

Celebrities without make up!

How many time's have we seen articles titled "Celebrities caught without makeup"? The fact is, they are also caught without "digital cosmetics" which is  what we are used to seeing! Unless you know these people in real life and have seen them without

The pros. With Digital Cosmetic Surgery many models know that they don't have to look perfect and spend thousands of dollars on plastic surgery with collagen injections and face-lifts to make themselves appear more beautiful for photo shoots when software can do this for you and i wonder what percentage the of the 12 million surgical procedures that were carried out among men and women in 2007 were inspired from digitally enhanced image they had seen!

The cons: Whenever you now see an amazing, bizarre or unbelievable picture, what's the first thing that comes to mind?... Photoshop?. We are now living in a day and age where the ability to tell a real photo from a hoax one which is a shame and will always make me think twice with every image i now see! The most Beautiful feature in the world is from within and no-one can take that away from you.

Digital Cosmetic Surgery in action!

Compu,

Thanks for sharing once again. I find it extremely sad that life has gotten to this point. Why can't we all look and listen to the heart of another and find that beauty within?

Have A Dynamic Day!

Fantastic work, compu-smart. The video is incredible! When I worked for The Hour newspaper I had fun one day giving a balding man a full head of hair after our photographer showed me how it could be done. And I remember how one of the magazines doctored up O.J. Simpson's photo on their cover.

That's way too freaky and sad, imagine all the young girls that look at these photos and wish they we're like that. If they knew, I wonder, would they appreciate thier bodies much more?

Exellent point! The tragedgy is when people get inspired to get plastic surgery just so that they can try to look like those imaginary people! I liked the video a case of a digital shape shifter.

This is really true. It is happening nowadays but a think this is helpful in some ways. There is a reason to say thank you to this technologies and we don't have to scared of this. But then there should be a limit on doing such techs.

Half a century ago the father of British plastic surgery Sir Harold Gillies said: "The advances in plastic surgery in the past 10 years are primarily those of photography."
