Friday Figure Fix: No miracles here

In what seems like an endless series of "caveat emptor" posts over here at My Plastics Life, now a new tidbit of information on what's really going on out there, this time from the FDA.

We've talked so many times before about how there is nothing magical about how to fix your figure, and something seems too good to be true, it probably is. In the world of medicine - and more specifically, plastic surgery - quick fixes can lead to disappointing, and sometimes even dangerous, results.

In this case, the latest culprit is "Lipodissolve". Who needs surgery when you can get fast results with injections that simply melt the fat away? Life, unfortunately, is not that easy , and it seems that a lot of patients were harmed for believing these practitioners' touts.
