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
    1. 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.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.
    4. 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. 
    5. 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.  
    6. 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.
    7. 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.
    8. 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.
    9. 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.

LOVE LETTER of the month
jonathan hoenig mdreal 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!"
