Modern marvel: Free iSurgeon app lets you imagine results of cosmetic operation

Choosing to have plastic surgery is a huge commitment, and until now patients could only imagine what the results might look like.

But a revolutionary new iPhone application is about to change that.

Called iSurgeon, it’s easy to use - simply take a photograph of the body part you wish to change then glide your fingers over the screen to increase or decrease its dimensions.

The app is the brainchild of plastic surgeon Dr Michael Salzhauer - who invented it in an attempt to cut down on the time he spent in consultations.

Now, potential patients can take a picture, alter it as desired with iSurgeon, then email it to Dr Salzhauer at his Miami clinic - and he can advise whether the changes are feasible and how much they’d cost.

‘A lot of people wonder what they would look like if they could change themselves’ says Dr Salzhauer.

‘This will help them find out if they are actually interested and, if so, they can seek out a certified plastic surgeon to follow it up.’

The app has already been a huge hit in the U.S. - Dr Salzhauer has received more than 100,000 images from potential patients - and it’s now set to sweep Britain.

And the best bit? Far from being over-inflated, it’s completely free to download.
