For US$1 million, the woman who doesn’t have quite everything will get an “all-encompassing, full-body rejuvenation”, including breast augmentation, full body liposuction, tummy tuck, rhinoplasty, mole removal, and much, much more. Contact Dr Stephen Greenberg, at 7th Floor, 461 Park Avenue South, New York, for further details.
