Dr. Sherrell Aston Addresses the Popularity of Dermal Fillers and Possible Long Term Side Effects

NEW YORK, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- What to do in a sagging economy? Not necessarily the quick fix that you think, says Dr. Sherrell Aston, one of the country's leading plastic surgeons.

The manufacturers of popular soft tissue filler, Artefill, have recently filed bankruptcy as well.
