These fake before and after being posted by plastic surgeons are out of control
Doctor is going viral for his special “Picasso Technique,”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is photoshop. He is not a licensed doctor in Iran and has paid influencers to spread photoshopped images and comment on these types of posts to scam interested parties out of money. Beware.

Toxic thoughts and stress do NOT cause cancer, despite what functional, integrative and naturopathic doctors might say.
There’s a whole chapter explaining this in more detail in my next book - ‘The Cancer Roadmap’. I uncover how the myth started and show you that it’s not true.
Being happy and smiling more CANNOT cure you, despite what Mexican clinics might tell you to do
I’ll do a video debunking this properly in the New Year.

Finally - what cancer myths have you heard?

Our very own @ruthiesun is an absolute dynamo and her fearless campaigning on osteoporosis will save lives - richly deserved recognition from The Queen. Proud that the MoS Health played a part. It's what we are here for.
A proud moment for me and my Mum. I’m pleased I can help raise awareness of osteoporosis. We need early diagnosis through Fracture Liaison Services everywhere in the UK. @RoyalOsteoSoc @CraigJonesROS @GSTTnhs @wesstreeting

No one denies the positive impact Dr Newson has had - but some of her prescribing practices are very unconventional, whistleblowers from her clinic have serious concerns and there are worrying patient stories emerging. Panorama has done well to highlight these.
Scaremongering from @BBCPanorama … appalling. There are plenty of charlatans ripping off menopausal women & it’s not Newson. I respect @drlouisenewson and I am so very personally thankful I got the right advice and support from the Newson Clinic. I referred my GP practice to the clinic so they could get educated and train in menopause care as what is available now in the NHS is shocking and women are being shortchanged & suffering.
Overall, @drlouisenewson has moved mountains in bringing menopause education to British women. #NewsonClinic #HRT #panorama #BBC #WomensHealth
This argument again - also used by Dr Newson herself. My question is, how many does there have to be before it’s a problem? How bad do things have to get?

TV commissioners need to start giving their heads a wobble…yet another story about a conflicted TV doctor, scientist or celeb promoting an unevidenced and potentially harmful intervention

Glad to see this. We outlined the exact same concerns last year, despite intense pressure from Dr Newson not to publish, passed a wealth of information to the @gmcuk and then… nothing. Will they now step up? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp8e…

Update: @MHRAgovuk responded to our report.
A spokesperson said it is conducting a safety review in response to Yellow Card reports of suspected adverse drug reactions involving mental health disorders in association with Kaftrio.
Almost half of young children taking cystic fibrosis drug Kaftrio in a study developed profound behaviour changes, including ADHD and low mood that disappeared when the medication was stopped. We've had similar anecdotal reports. @abihalstead @pash22 dailymail.co.uk/health/artic…

Interesting. I wonder why the influential medics who were critical are so quiet now. Keen to hear their scientific arguments. Given their vociferousness surely they have information to share and weren’t just participating in a pile on. @AlastairMcA30 @doctor_oxford

Dr. Bataille also knows what she is talking about as she wrote definitive meta-analysis of UV exposure and melanoma. Our UV protection public health message has gotten pretty extreme and beyond the data.

@timspector and his derm wife Dr Veronique Bataille spoke to us on the SPF furore. People like @doctor_oxford and @amateuradam went off about it but seem to be set on my to transmit not receive. I’d love to hear some considered opinions having read this. dailymail.co.uk/health/artic…
