AAD President Shaves Head for SkinPAC

And now for the video footage!


 

To make good on a promise, American Academy of Dermatology President, Dr. Daniel Siegel, had his head publicly shaved at the Summer Academy Meeting in Boston to celebrate contributions made to SkinPAC, the AAD's political action committee.

He pledged that if SkinPAC was able to build on the successes of previous years, and hit the $1 million mark for the 2012 election cycle, he would go bald.

Members contributing the maximum donation amount of $5,000, got to take turns shaving Dr. Siegel's locks.
