Celeb Plastic Surgeon Dr. Alan Bienstock

As any normal girl would do....I turn on the TV, or flip through a magazine, and see some of the worlds most sought after celebrity faces and bodies and wonder...is that really what they look like? All perfect and perky? With no bumps on their noses and no wrinkles around their baby blue eyes?

We all wonder....what would it be like if we were a little slimmer...or a little bustier... or had a booty like J.Lo?


We decided that it's time to get down to business. What is really going on behind the velvet ropes and local anesthesia? What is happening in the world of celebrity plastic surgery?
For these answers...we went to the BEST OF THE BEST!

Dr. Alan Bienstock ( shown here, with The Luxury Spot's own Stephanie, at the September 5th NY Fashion Week Launch of Ottavia et Emma) is a world-renowned Plastic Surgeon to the stars. Based here in NYC...with another office in Princeton, NJ, Dr. Bienstock has been giving the faces and bodies of celebs something to smile about. (sans smile lines..of course!)

Here is our first question for Dr. Bienstock:


We have heard about plenty of celebs getting nose jobs. Some have said it was due to a 'deviated septum'. What is this condition, and is it possible that they are just using this as a cover up?
There are celebrities who in all reality have a deviated septum, which can cause nasal obstruction, snoring, and make it difficult to breathe. A deviated septum can have an impact in the tonal quality of voices during speech and singing and can make it impossible for some individuals to breathe adequately.

However, The correction of a nasal hump or widened, bulbous nasal tip is purely a cosmetic procedure known as a Rhinoplasty . This can be incorporated with repair of a deviated septum but the cosmetic portion must be distinguished from the reconstructive. Some individuals in the media will claim that they have had a deviated septum repair when in reality they had a formal cosmetic rhinoplasty or nose job.

Do you have any questions for Dr. Bienstock?

Fashion: Ottavia et Emma Launch Party-- NEW YORK FASHION WEEK!!


Fashion Week....what would a girl do without it? Although many in Manhattan choose not to drive, due to the abundance of cabs and car services available, we all have the chance to envision our hair blowing in the wind in the NEWEST Mercedes-Benz models. They are displayed throughout the tents in Bryant Park at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

As if the high energy fashion shows and luxe goodie-bags weren't reason enough to jaunt through a 'park' in 4-inch heels.... the fabulous after parties are the best way to end any night.

Opening night, September 5, was the Ottavia et Emma Launch party @ the Bryant Park Hotel Cellar Bar-- Exclusive Fun at its FINEST.

Here are some Pictures :)

Tons of amazing guests stopped by...including award winning actress Joan Allen! What a sweetheart- She absolutely loves the Ottavia et Emma (O&E) line...

Here is a stunning picture of model, Amonda, wearing the breathtaking Chiffon & Satin Dress from O&E:

We had a fun-filled night filled with dancing, fashion, celeb sightings, and thoroughly delish drinks- sponsored throughout the night by fabulous Chambord ( who doesn't love black raspberry liqueur?! YUMM!!!)


To top it all off....the SWAG BAG! What was inside, you ask?
  • 100% Organic Cotton Black Tote gift bags from O&E which are to die for. My new tote for trips to Whole Foods!
  • Ridiculously soft 100% Organic Cotton Long Sleeved Tees from O&E

  • The cutest mini Chambord bottles - new fav drink!
