Dumb press release of the day

story idea: Looking younger to save your career; plastic surgeon is the hero for middle-aged bankers...

Hi Jay,

I want to see if you would be interested in a story on how foreigners are saving the aesthetics industry in the US. While everything in the US appears to be on sale for foreigners, hitting up the plastic surgery office is on the “shopping lists” for millions of tourists.

One aesthetics specialist that we work with, Dr. Antonio Armani is a world-renowned hair transplant surgeon with offices in Dubai, Paris, Milan and Tokyo – but the branch that has the biggest business boom is his Los Angeles office. Let me know if you would like an interview with Dr. Armani on how his Beverly Hills business has been looking a lot more like the UN recently.
