Dr. Hamori Speaks on Latest Cosmetic Trends

As you may know, Dr. Hamori is committed to staying up-to-date with the latest technologies and surgical procedures and cosmetic treatments, and is active not only attending professional conferences but also speaking and presenting to her peers on the latest cosmetic treatments and trends. For instance, at the ASAPS Annual Convention in Las Vegas last month, Dr. Hamori spoke on the "Hot Topics" panel and was interviewed on the Plastic Surgery Channel regarding the trend in Labiaplasty, also now being called Cosmetic GYN.

Enter Dysport: Here Come the Botox Competitors
Next month, Dr. Hamori will speak about Dysport, from Medicis (an up and coming Botox competitor) and its family of injectables (Restylane/Perlane) with other physicians during the American Association of Dermatologists meeting in Boston. Dr. Hamori expects to have the new product in the office to inject very soon.

Here is a link to yesterday's news release on Dysport (formerly known as Reloxin) becoming available in the U.S.: Medicis Begins Shipping Dysport(TM) for Glabellar Lines.

And here is the WebMD report on Dysport's FDA approval.
Stay tuned for more news on Dysport.

Cosmetic Injectables Come Out of the Closet!

I thought I'd pass along this interesting news just released by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). According to a survey conducted by the society's research foundation, most consumers of cosmetic injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and hyaluronic acid dermal fillers do not hide their use of the treatments. Nearly 9 out of 10 respondents (87 percent) openly discuss their injectable treatments with others, and 7 out of 10 (70 percent) received support from the people they told.

Who are these people? According to the survey, they tend to be:
• married
• working mothers between 41-55 years of age
• with household incomes of under $100,000.
The survey also found that these women are health-conscious
• 95 percent exercise
• 78 percent practice healthy eating habits.
