The scalpel is facing the chop. Sweeping advances in cosmetic medicine mean surgery is being phased out, supplanted by revolutionary new treatments requiring a simple injection.

A big rise in injectable treatments is being reported in cosmetic clinics around the country. And with a clutch of new procedures on the way, invasive plastic surgery could soon be a rarity.
