the
year in review - january 2010 |
|
Looking back on 2009, the year in
plastic surgery was filled with lots of
activity by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration),
some politics, and of course,
concern about the economy.
As it turned out, we found that patients
were still willing to travel great distances
to be treated by the expert (Dr Hoenig,
of course). Some of the countries patients
came to us from last year were Malaysia, Ireland,
England, Hong Kong, Mexico, Australia,
Sweden, Germany, Romania, Greece, Dubai,
and Israel.
Below you'll find the Top 9 of '09 ---
tidbits we shared throughout the year as
it happened. If you know someone who might
enjoy receiving our newsletters, feel free
to spread the word.

| THE
TOP 9 HIGHLIGHTS OF 2009 |
|
the
year in review
- Dr.
Hoenig was named by his peers as one
of the Best Plastic Surgeons
and
Best Ophthalmologists in Beverly
Hills in a report published in the Los
Angeles Times.
- BOTOX
Cosmetic celebrated their
7 year anniversary since FDA approval
for cosmetic use and this month marks 20
years since FDA approval for treatment
of strabismus (cross-eyed condition)
and eyelid muscle spasm. Dr Hoenig
has been injecting Botox since 1990
and Danya since 2000.
- In
May, the FDA approved Dysport
for use in the U.S. Like BOTOX, Dysport
contains Botulinum Toxin A and works
similarly to temporarily weaken or paralyze
muscles to treat wrinkles caused by
muscle contraction.
- In
July, the FDA approved a method of mixing
Radiesse with lidocaine
to minimize the discomfort of Radiesse
injections. Our patients really like
this improvement.
- Sculptra
Aesthetic garnered FDA
approval in August. Used for years to
treat facial fat loss in patients with
HIV, it is an excellent option for those
wanting to add more fullness to their
faces.
- Adding
to the list of FDA approvals in 2009, Latisse
was launched by Allergan. Latisse miraculously
produces noticeably longer, thicker,
darker eyelashes in 6-8 weeks.
Look for Latisse to be heavily marketed
in 2010.
- In
October, the Donda West law
was signed by California Governor Schwarzenegger
prohibiting
elective cosmetic surgery on a patient
unless, prior to surgery, the patient
has received a physical examination
and clearance for surgery.
- Evolence,
a collagen based filler, made its quiet
disappearance in December, succumbing
to the popularity of hyaluronic acid
fillers such as Restylane
and Juvederm. Evolence still remains
a good option for patients in which
Restylane or Juvederm is noticeable
under the eye as blue hue.
- The
Senate proposed a 5% tax
on all cosmetic surgery to help pay
for the new health care reform. Thanks
to lobbying by Plastic Surgery organizations
and the makers of Botox, Juvederm, and
Restylane, as well as a grassroots campaign
by many of you, the tax was removed
from the bill and a 10% tax on indoor
tanning was approved instead.

LETTER of the month |
|
real
patients say it best
"Dr Hoenig completely restored my eyes!
I had "doll's eyes" from previous poor
upper blepharoplasty; in addition, my
eyelids were hanging down like sad drapes.
I looked awful, to say the least.
Dr. Hoenig performed a Mueller resection
of my eyelids and injected Restylane and
Juvederm in my upper hollows. Since then,
he has reinjected some more filler AT
NO CHARGE.
Unbelievable service, kindness and
expert attention from his staff. He also
did my friend's facelift - she looks unbelievable.
He is so good that I wouldn't trust
my face to any other doctor. And his fees
are not excessive like some other less
talented docs in Beverly Hills. I LOVE
DR HOENIG!"
