Amsterdam and Plastic Surgery
Posted by: | Comments
Here is a silly picture of me in wooden shoes from my recent trip to Amsterdam. I have to say, it’s a beautiful country full of tulips this time of year and the weather was perfect (everyone told us so every day).
Because I’m always on the look-out for everything “aesthetic” no matter where I am, I looked and looked but came up blank in this country.
I saw one bad boob job on a tourist – that’s it! No face lifts, no overdone face fillers, no big lips, nothing! Even people in the Red Light District were natural. I scanned every publication I came across, but never saw the words “Botox” or “plastic surgery” anywhere.
Maybe it’s the “Coffee Houses” with the sweet smell of funny cigarettes that keep these people from aesthetic rejuvenation, but, whatever it is, they certainly could use it. I’ve never seen so many people smoke so many cigarettes in my life.
I love smoke-free California…

Effectiveness Of Print Ads from Your Local Plastic Surgery Society
Posted by: | CommentsFrom the ads I typically see from the medical societies, my overall opinion is that they are not effective. These types of “branding” ads tell the reader why you’re the right choice. Hence, the problem. It’s all about you and not the patient!
The patient only cares to learn about solutions to their problems and what’s new in aesthetic enhancement. For now, they just want to know more about what they can do about something that bothers them. Later they’ll want to know more about you – after you have educated them on the possibilities.
So, while I realize the intent is to forewarn the patients to stick to the board-certified specialists, you’ll get a much better response by answering the patient’s question, “What’s in it for me?” before diving in to why you are the best choice.

Print Ads From Your Local Plastic Surgery Society Are Not Necessarily Effective
Posted by: | CommentsThe ads I typically see from the medical societies are not effective for a few reasons. These types of “branding” ads tell the reader why you’re the right choice. Hence, the problem. It’s all about you and not the patient!
