What’s the economic benefit of hair transplants? Or any other cosmetic surgery for that matter.

Teeth are far more than cosmetic. The benefits of a good set of teeth for nutritional health, let alone the costs of poor tooth health on your general health would make this an economic benefit.

Exactly. Cosmetic surgery is where the real money is at.
