Nearly 4 Billion Botox Injections Performed in 2005: How Safe is this Popular Procedure?
(PRWEB) November 16, 2006 -- The fastest growing cosmetic procedure in the country, Botox injections have increased in popularity over 300% since 2000. According to statistics compiled by the American Society of Plastic surgeons, 3,839,387 Botox procedures were performed in 2005. But how safe is this popular procedure?
For the millions of Americans who think Botox is a safe procedure and an easy way to look ten years younger, Dr. Eric Kaplan has a simple piece of advice: think again. Just before Thanksgiving 2004, Dr. Kaplan and his wife Bonnie received what they thought were innocuous Botox injections. Instead, the Kaplans were poisoned with a counterfeit substance - raw Botulinum Toxin, an extremely dangerous and extremely poisonous toxin. Within days, both had developed severe botulism and were fighting for their lives in a South Florida hospital.
Dr. Kaplan is sharing their story in a forthcoming book, Dying to Be Young: From Botox to Botulism. Dying to Be Young (Nightengale Press, ISBN: 1-933449-40-3) is scheduled for release in February 2007.
Part survivor story, part powerful warning, Dying to be Young is a harrowing chronicle of the Kaplans' ordeal - complete paralysis, total life support, six weeks in a Florida hospital, a lengthy stay in a rehabilitation center in Georgia, and beyond.
Dying to Be Young is far more than a tell-all about the dangers associated with Botox; Dying to be Young is a gripping chronicle of triumph over tragedy, inspiration, spirit and love. Resplendent with moving truths and insights, Dying to be Young is the journal of a man fighting for life, a story of awakening, and a remarkable testament to the triumph of the human spirit.
Dr. Kaplan's hope for the book is two-fold: first, he hopes to raise the level of consciousness about the dangers associated with Botox and second, he hopes to share the lessons he learned during the ordeal.
According to Dr. Kaplan, "My goal in sharing our story is to underscore that the power of mind, spirit and soul is far stronger than any muscle in our body. It is my heartfelt desire that this book inspires readers to see beyond the mundane and be thankful for the little things in life - the ability to blink to breathe, to move, to laugh, to cry, to love and be loved. We struggle with trying to accept aging as a natural process, but need to remember that every wrinkle, age spot and deep line was earned by living life well and with vigor."
Dr. Eric Kaplan is regarded as one of the nation's preeminent though leaders in practice management integration. A sought-after speaker and author of the bestselling Dr. Kaplan's Lifestyles of the Fit and Famous, Dr. Kaplan served as one of the personnel doctors to the Trump family, and serves as Advisor to the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports.
Dying to be Young will be available in better bookstores and online retailers in 2007. Nightengale Press is an independent publisher headquartered in Wisconsin. Members of the news media wishing to request an advance review copy of Dying to Be Young or schedule an interview with Dr. Eric Kaplan are kindly asked to contact Maryglenn McCombs by phone - (615) 297-9875
