EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. – While the tanning industry is facing new restrictions, “Tan-a-holics” will soon be paying a new tax. 
It’s part of a provision in the health care reform law. Starting July 1, there will be a 10 percent tax on all indoor tanning sessions.  The new tax only applies to UV services.  The popular spray tans are not included.  Dr. Ralph Bashioum, a cosmetic surgeon with Bashioum Cosmetic Surgery Center talks about the health risks.

Lisa’s Blog: Debut of my new nose

March 17th, 2010

Day 14 after my Rhinoplasty surgery.

I am so happy with my new nose!   Much of the swelling has gone down now, so the results are more visible.   I was so nervous about the  splint removal.  Like I mentioned to Dr. Bashioum at my appointment, I was more nervous about that than the actual surgery.  These feelings surprised me, maybe because I was worried that I might not look like myself and not like my nose.   But- I was wrong, I love it!
