| 'Ah my beauty past compare'
'Look good-feel good' is the mantra that more and more people are following for a successful existence. Body reshaping, tummy tuck, anti-aging treatment, nose shaping, facial rejuvenation, lip enlargement, ear correction, laser hair removal, fat removals - you name it, they change it. And the best part is that you don't have to be an industrialist or a Page 3 socialite to be able to afford the latest trend in town. Hiren Bhatt, a cosmetic surgeon in Vadodara, says: "A host of clinics with the latest technology have been set up here in the last couple of years. Even people from Mumbai come here for major surgeries, apart from locals and NRIs." And the visits by our very own Non Resident Gujaratis (NRGs) to their homeland just to get a laser surgery done has only added to the delight of cosmetologists.
