Vanity Cosmetic Surgery claims to be the first medical center in the world to accept Bitcoin

logoBitcoin, the cryptocurrency that has taken the world by storm, only grows stronger as people use it in more and more industries. According to a press release, Vanity Cosmetic Surgery is the latest to jump on board, claiming it is the only medical center in the world to accept Bitcoin as an official payment method.

Here’s the part worth quoting: “What does this mean to patients? They can now use their loaded Bitcoin account to pay for a breast augmentation or a nose job, or maybe a laser hair removal treatment. This will definitely transform the way people will choose their doctors in the near future.”

If you’ve got Bitcoins to spend on plastic surgery, all you have to do is head to Miami.
