Dr. Jacob Haiavy was recently quoted in an LA Times piece about the business of cosmetic 
surgery making “a comeback” in this uncertain economy. When discussing patient incentives he said the following:
We used to give discounts on multiple procedures anyway, but we took it to the next level at the beginning of the year. It’s tough because 90% of what we do is elective. People have been more scrutinizing and resistant to spending money.
But as the article suggests, a strong surge in business may be nearing as cosmetic practices start offering special prices, and baby boomers consider the possibility of looking better to enhance their prospects.
