The current Health Care Bill lead authored by Sen. Henry Reed ( D,Nev) that is before the Senate for approval has added a 5% tax on “elective cosmetic surgical procedures” which includes Botox and fillers. A $350 Botox treatment will be $367.50, that $10,000 facelift will be $10,500. Hopefully plastic surgery spokeswoman Ms. Joan Rivers will be able to convince the lawmakers to defeat the bill based on the same arguements that our country’s founding father’s used in Boston, “Taxation without representation!”. Sen. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA) will have saved a fortune in taxes by having her work done prior to passing the bill, but will be a major contributor to the tax in the future. For those of you who are contemplating elective cosmetic procedures, now is the time to book to save at least 5%. Be well.
