"While rapid technological changes in dermal fillers, lasers, and other light sources are creating a frenzy of competition," notes Steven Heffner, acquisitions editor for Kalorama Information, "manufacturers are riding the wave of the real market drivers: the providers hungry for a cash business in their managed care practices and the aging public’s demand for less invasive, more effective treatments."
