Plastic Surgery Toy Box
The plastic surgery industry has found an enterprising way to promote its wares: bestowing branded, squeezable tchotchkes on doctors and patients.
There’s the oddly lifelike soft plastic breast from ebreastaug.com, a website that provides patients with information on breast augmentation.
Dermik, which makes a range of products designed to zap acne and smooth wrinkles, offers up a stress ball in the form of a classical head with marble-smooth skin.
Quill Medical makes miniature porcupines, the animal that inspired a former zoology student to invent the company’s barbed suture, ContourThread.
But our favorite is the doughy, pocket-size doctor doll (available in both male and female versions) from Breast Implants USA, an online source for board-certified surgeons. Now you can put the squeeze on your doctor, too. [via: Allure]
