There were many thousands of plastic surgeons and suppliers in Seattle last week. I go to the annual meeting at least every other year. i always expect nothing new, since I've been doing it for so long it's hard to believe anything could be better, but guess what?  every year I am surprised by the ingenuity of my fellow surgeons. This year a British surgeon figured out how to cross link hyaluronic acid (Juvederm/Restylane) to make it thick enough to be injected under breasts and take the place of breast implants surgery. The cost is about the same, it still requires a "surgical setting" for sterility and the size is limited to a one cup size enlargement, but I predict it will be perfected to include much larger sizes and many other body parts (like hips & buttocks). The variations in "powered liposuction" devices is emmense; There are laser, ultra-sound, radio=frequency, water jet and reciprocating devices all competing for the gullible surgeon's dollar.
