The Reps always say "We work with Plastic Surgeons"

So what plastic surgeons? Have they ever named one? Why not work with Dermatologists....why would Plastic Surgeons use oil free primer? Or mascara?

What a bunch of hogwash

Probably to differentiate themselves from all the dermatologist lines already out there. Also, from what I heard years ago, you had to be more careful about what you put on your skin following procedures you typically would get at a Plastic Surgeon's office. Not just plastic surgery itself, but before all these spas became so popular, the only place to get the other anti-aging procedures was at a Plastic Surgeon's office. Where I live, that is still pretty much the case. We did have a few med-spa type places show up, but I'm not hearing about them anymore, and I think those had a plastic surgeon on staff. We have very limited options here. There's a skin tightening procedure I'd really like to look into, but it's not available. here.

I think it's in their contract they have to say that phrase within the first 60 seconds and then at least 5 times thereafter during their spiel. Late last night or in the wee hours I woke up and started channel surfing. On QVC there was the very tall rep with the long dark hair parted in the middle sort of wavy pieces hanging down in front (can't remember her name) and within 5 seconds I heard her say it. Did a little channel surfing and back to the Q and lo and behold was just in time to hear her say it again.

They should interview these plastic surgeons that they work with.... have a cameo or something... I really DOUBT that there are ANY AT ALL.
