 Lifestyle Lift, a major cosmetic surgery chain with 40 centers nationwide, shut down business and announced that they may be filing for bankruptcy on Monday, the Wall Street Journal reports (.paywall alert). 

According to the Journal, Lifestyle Lift previously got into trouble for their advertising practices, including a settlement inn 2013 with Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi that meant that had to stop calling their services a “revolutionary procedure."

In 2011, Health News Florida reported about the launch of the state investigation into the cosmetic surgery company. 

Originally founded in December 2006 as an independent grassroots publication dedicated to coverage of health issues in Florida, Health News Florida was acquired by WUSF Public Media in September 2012.
