PLAINVIEW, NY--(Marketwire - 05/03/11) - Blast Applications, Inc. (Pinksheets:BLAP - News), a developer of Mobile and Web Apps, announces today its latest app approved by Apple.

Cosmetic Surgery Matching Game
http://itunes.apple.com/md/app/cosmetic-surgery-matching/id432894095?mt=8
Users see how fast they can match before and after images of actual cosmetic surgery.

After each successful match, they move to the next one.

Once all pictures are matched, they can see how long it took them, or try again for a faster time.

The App, in a noninvasive way, generates fun and promotes the business of Dr. Scott Blyer of CAMEO Surgery Center.

Dr. Blyer is known for his innovative techniques in cosmetic surgery. Amongst his many achievements, is the internal facelift where he repositions the supporting ligaments of the face through incisions made inside the mouth, creating a scar-free more youthful appearance with long lasting results.

Blast Applications is looking to enter into an agreement with Dr. Blyer for some new App ideas that could generate considerable revenue if approved in the medical field.

The parties are considering a revenue share proposal from the income generated.

"In the last two months we have been working with many doctors and new ideas for the developments of innovative Apps that could be beneficial to consumers. We will be continuing our path of discovery in this multibillion dollar industry," stated Dino Luzzi, CEO of Blast Applications.

BuildMyBod app for iPhone & iPad shows patients what to expect after cosmetic surgery

How much is it gonna cost me? It’s the first question most patients have when it comes to plastic surgery. Now, you can find out in a matter of minutes, thanks to a new iPhone app called Build My Bod.

The app was invented by Baton Rouge Plastic Surgeon Dr. Jonathan Kaplan, who recognized the need for a tool to better educate patients before coming in to the surgeon’s office for a consult.? He said it’s a win-win for both the patient and doctor, since it can prevent patients wasting their time by coming in for a consult for a procedure that may be way out of their budget.?

Dr. Kamran Khoobehi, the first New Orleans plastic surgeon to subscribe to the app service, says it’s a great way to empower patients by giving them more information before coming in to see their surgeon.

So how do you get this new free app? Just click the link from on the left and download it for free!?

Dr. Kaplan says a web-based version and a version for android phones is coming soon, and the app is available for doctors world-wide.

Once you’ve downloaded the app, just pick your gender, and start pricing the various procedures. The app includes all fees associated with a surgery, from O.R. time, to anesthesia, MD fees, implant fees, post-surgical garment fees, etc., that you often won’t find listed on a surgeon’s own website.? The app will also make adjustments when multiple surgical procedures are selected at a time, since there’s often a discount involved. (For example, if you are doing your nose and lipo at the same time, the O.R. and anesthesia fees, and sometimes doctors’ fees, will be less since you are not requiring two separate trips to a hospital or surgical center, 2 separate anesthesia sessions, etc…)

Dr. Kaplan says the app does not guarantee prices: fees could be a little more or less, depending on the individual patient’s case. It’s important to remember that the patient is not the doctor, so a procedure you may want or think you need may not be a procedure the doctor thinks you are a good candidate for.

Dr. Elizabeth Kinsley, a Covington plastic surgeon, invented the iAugment app last year, which is a fun way for patients to see what they’ll look like with a little more on top.? Just upload a picture (Dr. Kinsely says a bikini works best), and pick your implant size to see what you would look like after breast augmentation.? The iAugment app can also be downloaded from the app store (just click the link to the left).

Thanks for watching, and as always, feel free to email me at catherine@wgno.com with any comments or questions! :)
