LA Times. �It used to be a high point of Goldy Anthony�s life.
Every six weeks or so, as a kind of personal morale booster,
she and a group of girlfriends would make appointments to 
see a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon for little touch-ups. 
He was �an artist� with Botox and Juvederm, she said.�

�Afterward, in a carefree mood, the ladies would dine at a 
popular restaurant on the Sunset Strip.� �No more. The sub-
prime loan crisis, the housing slump and the general decline
of the economy have claimed another covey of victims. Anthony 
is in the real estate business, and under current conditions
the cosmetic treatments � at $1,800 or more a pop � can no 
longer be squeezed into her budget. It�s the same with others
in the group.�

��I would rather have Botox than go out to dinner, but it�s 
just gotten so bad,� said Anthony, 41, who is looking for a
job since her career in the mortgage business went sour. 
She has not had the facial treatments in months.�
