'Five Minute' Nose Job???
Hard to believe - a new way to reshape and recontour the nose,  performed in the office in just minutes...without surgery? With the new "injectable rhinoplasty", we use natural, biologically compatible "fillers"  to realign, change contours and modify the shape of the nose; more like artistic "sculpting" than a medical procedure! Without a scalpel, incision, or sutures, the nasal shape can be improved with a simple 5 - 10 minute office procedure. For patients who have had previous surgical nasal reshaping, the "fillers" can be used to correct persisting bumps or dents - without the need for additional surgery. There is no recovery except for some minor swelling or bruising lasting a day or two. The downside? Although fillers will often last some 6 - 12 months, eventually they are absorbed. But that could also be an advantage if the results are not exactly what were hoped for, something not possible if a surgery had been done. This technique can also be a way to "test the waters" and get an idea what things might look like without having an actual surgical rhinoplasty done.

Breast Implant Pioneer
In 1962, 30 year old Timmie Jean Lindsey, mother of six, became the first patient in the United States to have a silicone gel implant breast augmentation! She is now a great grandmother living in Highland,Texas with over a dozen grandchildren. She is doing well and... still has her original implants (that's 48 years ago)!
Brazil Says Cosmetic Surgery Is Now Tax Deductible!

Now we all have yet another reason we should head to Brazil. Retroactive to 2004, the Brazilian government has recently approved Cosmetic Surgery as a legitimate tax deduction! Americans in several states, most notably, our beloved New Jersey (since 2004), have been forced to actually pay an extra "Cosmetic Procedure Tax" levied on all cosmetic surgery and office procedures. The Brazilian legislature said that the expanding Brazilian economy and recent income growth for its citizens were factors in their decision.
