Plastic Surgery, the Who and What of It
Ever wonder who's getting plastic surgery? For the most part, it's women. Statistics compiled by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery show that of the 11.5 million cosmetic surgical and non-surgical procedures done in 2005, over 90% were preformed on women. In fact, surgical procedures for women showed a modest annual increase of 2%, while they were down 8% for men.
People ages 35-50 years are the most likely to have a cosmetic procedure done, accounting for nearly half of procedures, compared with just 4% of people 65 and older.

More than 14 percent of those with prostate cancer reported having what’s called vertex baldness by age 30 compared to just over 5 percent of those who did not have cancer.

LASER HAIR TREATMENT
It sounds like a gimmick that’s too good to be true- a comb with a low level laser in it that you hold to your head for ten minutes a day, and voila, you have more hair.
