Too often, people think of cosmetic surgery as something only for individuals who are obsessed with beauty or extremely vain. The reality is that cosmetic procedures in many cases are just helping people get back something they lost. A perfect example is abdominioplasty, also known in the popular media as a “tummy tuck.” If a [...]

Breast Augmenation – Down But Not Out
Posted in Uncategorized on December 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I think any economist with half a brain (or I could avoid being redundant and just say any economist – apologies to Paul Krugman) could tell you that the number of breast augmenation surgeries will very likely be lower in 2008 than it was in 2007. We won’t know until about April when the American [...]
Kate’s Implant Rant

Straight from the “why don’t we take more advice from anorexic former cocaine addicts?” file, Kate Moss recently trashed breast implants and the women who choose them. But instead of this “news” receiving an international shoulder shrug, apparently a number of people do care about what this former Calvin Klein model has to say when [...]
Beautiful Smiles – Always in Style?

Am I the only one noticing a lot more stories recently about how to achieve a bright, white smile? Obviously, the majority of coverage in the popular mags continues to be on skin care, makeup, and fashion, but I wonder if the fact that having more smile whitening and smile straightening options than ever before [...]
Med Spas Going Under

There have been several news reports in recent weeks about medical spa chains struggling in the “challenging” economic times the U.S. is facing these days. Turns out that at least some Americans are choosing to forego their minimally-invasive treatments, believing (rightly, in my mind) that beauty is a luxury.
But I want to focus on how [...]
The Future of Plastic Surgery – Stem Cells?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged birmingham plastic surgeons on July 16, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I was reading through one of my girlfriend’s old fashion mags (was it Glamour? Marie Claire? Cosmo? – that’s anyone’s guess) and I came across a little blurb talking about how very natural results could be achieved thanks to innovations in stem cell technology.
I’ll be the first to say that I am all in favor [...]

Who Came Up with “Nose Job”?

I’m a medical copywriter who does a lot of work in elective aesthetic medicine (aka, cosmetic surgery). Recently I’ve written several pages for clients about rhinoplasty. I was in the middle of writing a page for “nose jobs in Sacramento” when I realized that I had no idea who came up with this strange phrase [...]

If you’ve been looking around at your body contouring options, many of the newer treatment options at first may sound pretty exciting. Wouldn’t it be great if you could get all the benefits of liposuction in Indianapolis with a minimally-invasive or non-invasive procedure that offers an extremely quick recovery?
Unfortunately, a treatment like that is still [...]
Post Weight Loss Plastic Surgery: Where’s the Beef?
Posted in plastic surgery on March 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Here’s something I don’t get. Most people who pay attention to medical news will probably agree that bariatric surgery, or weight loss surgery, is crazy popular these days. Why? Well, as we all know, Americans are chunkier than ever. In fact, the CDC says fully one-third of us are obese. Don’t believe it? I didn’t [...]
