Plastic Surgeons and dermatologists are letting out a huge sigh of relief since the tax on elective cosmetic surgery, also known as the “bo-tax,” has been dismissed. The new tax that is proposed in the health care bill will be on indoor tanning services.
NYTimes.com reported that the 10% tax on “fake” tanning services will go into effect in July 2010 which means any indoor tanning services provider must add that additional tax onto their services. By 2020 this new tax will have raised close to $3 billion, this money will go to help millions of Americans obtain health insurance.
