If you get cheek implants at an early age (like in your 20s), how does that affect aging (like in you 40s)?

I got a tattoo a while ago from a non-professional (I deeply regret it now). A girl 3 weeks before me also had a tattoo from the same guy. She was HIV positive. I know the guy used a brand new needle, how ever, I don't know if he sterilized the rest of the machine. Everyone says he did so I'm really not worried. Also, the CDC website clearly states that no one has ever gotten HIV from a tattoo (and many sites claim it's impossible unless someone with HIV is tattooed and then that exact same needle is used within minutes on another person).

I was in there 3 weeks later (and he had given many more tattoos in this time so a lot of ink would've been through there). What are the odds I got HIV? I mean, no one to date has ever gotten HIV from a tattoo. I'm getting tested regardless. Should I be worrying? I mean, the CDC is clearly saying I shouldn't...and they're like...the highest authority on this. Would you be worrying?

I have a chinese symbol, on my left wrist that has a heart connected to the bottom, but its only the outline and i want to get it filled in red because it makes the tattoo pop. I got a tattoo on my right ankle last year and it got really infected and I was on three antibiotics to treat it. However, it has red in it and Ive read online that alot of people have allergic reactions to the red ink used specifically. How can i tell if i had an allergic reaction to my ankle tattoo or if it was just infected? I dont want something to happen to my wrist tattoo by getting the red put into and possibly messing it up. Thanks!!

Currently i am a teenager and i have the worst skin on earth. I would really like a list of products to deal with this or ideas or diet or... ANYTHING!!

My skin seems to be continuously dry even though i apply clinque stuff that is meant to get rid of dead skin, and i apply mosturizer to my face 2 times a day. I also wash my face 2 times a day with 2 different types of products-- Neutrogena face wash and origins wash. I DO wear face makeup everyday to school but not on weekends or after school. I AM a regularly dehydrated person, but maintain a pretty normal diet other than that.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! someone help me!

Has anyone tried the skin care line from Dr. Perricone? Do the products work? How about other brand such as oil of olay? What has been the best skin care product that you have ever used?

I'm usually pretty rational about things- I think about how my decisions will affect me in the future when making them. However, when it comes to tattoos and piercings, I just love them. For the most part I keep my body art hidden. I have 2 small tattoos, and I'm wanting to get a big one on my back. The 2 I have now are four and five years old. I'm wondering how you (women especially) feel about your artwork 10 or 20 years later?

when you ask a question on the net all you get back is some crap telling you that you will die if you tattoo yourself unless you get an apprenticeship and pay to get tattoo artist to teach you bearing in mind that you don't even know if he or she did if they tell you the right way to do things then whats the problem i can safely say that people like me will do it anyway so a little info isn't going to hurt and may even help save a life

I mean the piercings. I have a job interview at a nice restaurant (The Breakers in West Palm Beach) and I have snakebites (where you have your bottom lip pierced on both sides), I have them guaged to a 14 so even if I take the rings out the holes are still kinda noticeable. I really want this job, so how can I cover them up?

I have breast implants which are 34 DD. The problem is.....I can't find a bra that gives me the right cleavage. It seems that my breasts are too heavy and don't squeeze together like they should. I've tried different bras and can't find the right one. I even went to Victoria's Secret and tried on several bras. No luck so far!! HELP!!

I used to be an hourglass. In the past friends told me "You're so curvy!" I had a small flat stomach and curves. Now my waist got bigger (It's about 28 inches now) and my hips didn't get bigger. Now people say I'm no longer an hourglass. I'm not curvy anymore. What made me lose my hourglass figure? My stomach and waist got bigger- but my hips, arms, and legs didn't.

for skin, hair, nails, etc.

I have a few- spray a mix of one part apple cider vinegar, one part water. Leave on for five minutes and rinse well. This is a good clarifying treatment because it removes all the built-up hair product. Do it once a week.

Make a paste of baking soda and water, and lightly exfoliate your face with that. You could also use that paste to whiten your teeth a bit.
