Affording to Look Good
During a
Recession
                             by Kimberly Finder, M.D.

While some say that paying $4 for a gallon of gas or $4 for a cup of
Starbuck's coffee is expensive, there are many who are willing to
spend more for another liquid. In the last quarter, Botox sales jumped
13% to $315.5 million. With Botox sales on the rise, one would wonder
if we are really in an economic recession or has looking good become
a necessity?

A survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery
found that despite the economic concerns the use of fillers and Botox
are on the rise. Twenty-eight percent of the survey physicians said that
their current use of fillers increased up to 30 percent, compared to six
months ago and more than 40 percent of survey respondents stated
that the number of Botox procedures also increased compared to six
months ago.

Dr. Kimberly Finder, Director of The Face Place, agrees with the
survey's findings as she has seen a similar rise within her own practice.

"Despite what is going on in the economy, people are looking for ways
to keep a youthful appearance, not just for personal reasons but for
their careers. Who wants to go to work or to an interview and look
tired? Botox and fillers have the ability to take years off of your look
without having to get an expensive face lift."
