They already have switched to volume. There's a "plastic surgery institute" down the street from me. It's in one of those old houses converted to commercial, and so it's pretty much in a residential area.

The two largest sections in the Yellow Pages are "Lawyers" and "Plastic Surgeons." I'm not sure if the two are connected, but there you have it.

A search on Google Maps for "plastic surgery" in Toronto turns up 1,424 results.

Hollywood has been known to lead trends, but I'm not sure they can stop people from wanting to look like celebrities, whether they're natural or not.

I think there will now always be a market for nipping and tucking. Neurotoxic injections alone should keep the market going strongly.
