Sorry I have not written on my blog for a while but I just got back from Asian Cosmetic Surgey conferences and I was speaker. My talk was “tips and tricks in breast augmentation” all about my Hawaii 20 years experience. I also was in Bangkok tending to another business in real estate I have there.

There was also the trip to Amsterdam and the Swiss Alps on motorcycle a few months ago as well but sorry no time to write about that just yet. Maybe next post I will do that. Korea was a direct flight to Seol. My good buddy was suppose to meet us at the airport–no. So I waited for 30 minutes and caught the bus to Seol. My student Dr. Yeum had arranged a very nice Hotel for us. The bus ride took us right there. It was around a nice area with a restaurant district so there were things to do around the hotel for Rose while I went to the conference. Dr Yeum thinks ahead. My lecture presented to the cosmetic surgeons from Korea, China , Hong Kong and Japan was recieved well and as usual the Chinese cosmetic surgeons all have to get their picture taken with the White Guy. Seems as I have stated before its a bit of status symbol for them. These are eager beavers when it comes to wanting to learn cosmetic surgery which is fairly recent event when it comes to China. The three I met are shown below but there were maybe 100 or so from China. 
Well aside from the lecturs I gave in Korea and attended we had a lot of evenings out with my colleagues of fine food and drink. Korea has some great food and you can bet I imbibed as usual.

Aside from the meals and great exchange of information there was the typical discussions of new techiques which when ever I go to these meetings I learn more. I think we learned more at this meeting than I did at the Vegas Cosmetic Surgery meeting I went to last August. As a lot of these lectures are geared to my Asian patients. The Joint conference in Vegas last summer was good but only 30% of my patient population here in Hawaii is caucasian After the conference we took off to Bangkok where I tended to my real estate business and web company. We are developing 6 new web sites , one in Hair Transplant and the others are related to Thailand but more on that later. So this visit to Bangkok was more of work visit rather than vacation. Well I hope to write more later in the next post , in the mean time here are some more photos.
