At least that’s the promise, and that’s why lasers have become the hottest medical accoutrement since the stethoscope. Plastic Surgeons who once spent their time doing nose jobs on teenagers are now turning their offices into decoratorchic "medical spas," where they perform laser "facial rejuvenations" and hair removal as well as cosmetic surgery. Dimitrije Panfilov, head of Bonn’s chic Nofretete private clinic, has been using these high-tech "miracle weapons" to beautify his mostly female patients for the past six years. "We’re always three years behind the U.S.," he says, "so the megaboom over there will soon very likely spill over to us."
("Ako ništa drugo, ono je obećanje, i zato je laser postao najupotrebljavaniji lekarski alat posle stetoskopa. Plastični hirurzi koji su vreme provodili popravljajući noseve tinejdžerima, sada pretvaraju svoju ordinaciju u atelje, gde se podmlađuju lica, uklanjaju dlake i izvode druge estetske operacije. Dimitrije Panfilov, šef bonske šik privatne klinike Nofretete koristi ove haj-tek čudotvorna oruđa da ulepša svoju većinom žensku klijentelu proteklih šest godina. "Mi tri godine kaskamo za Amerikancima," kaže on, "tako da će megabum odande uskoro preskočiti i na nas.") |
