Happy New Year!

The weather is cold in Washington this week but people's spirits seem to be up in hope of a better year. We are all happy that the "Botax", an attack on working women, has been dropped from the upcoming health care bill. Taxes hurt commerce and we don't need that right now. There is a lot of talk about inflation (everything getting more valuable EXCEPT money) right now. We are seeing just the opposite in cosmetic surgery. Because there are fewer people ready to have a procedure currently, we have seen the cost of surgery, DECREASE, except for what hospitals are charging to use their operating rooms. The schedules are more open and the prices are down. If there is something that you have been thinking about doing, NOW is the time. You now have a financial incentive. As the economy begins to recover prices will stabilize and return to their pre recession levels.
I hope you had a warm, wonderful, family oriented holiday.

All the best,

Dr. Jabs
