Texas Surgeon Claims No Down Time With "Out to Dinner" Breast Implants

Is the plastic surgery industry taking pointers from McDonald's? According to The Daily Mail, a Texan plastic surgeon has developed a breast enlargement procedure that takes just 30 minutes to perform, with patients back at home and on their feet by dinnertime.
Dr. John Tebbetts was set to discuss his "out to dinner" technique before the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons this week. Tebbetts claims that his procedure requires only ibuprofen, not heavy anesthetics typically used in major surgeries. The doctor also takes exact measurements of the breast prior to surgery for the implants as a way to speed up the surgery; the procedure is said to cause no visible bruising and require no special bra afterwards.
John and Terrye TebbettsTebbetts says that 80-85% of his patients go out after their surgery.
"After the surgery we tell the women to go home and have a little nap, then get up after two hours, wash their hair, which helps them stretch their muscles, then go to dinner," Tebbetts said.
If this all pans out, a woman could leave the plastic surgeon's office with larger breasts in less time than it would take her to get new highlights...and she could show them off at the club that very night. Welcome to the world of drive-through surgery.

I can't believe that we'd

Furthermore, if this doctor's claim about his methods having no down time is true, then we're in for a real revolution. The standards of human aesthetics is about to change - to a point where having small breasts would be a taboo.
I also cannot quite believe
