Top-Five Growing Trends in Plastic Surgery

At the beginning of the year, a study on plastic surgery in the US concluded that the practice has grown by no less than 9% in the two short years since 2010. Of course, the most common and popular procedures were exactly the same as always top the list, namely breast augmentation, tummy tucks and so on and so forth. However, as society evolves and the procedures themselves become more diverse and indeed more widely available than ever before, there are a few once-rare procedures gaining serious ground and heading ever-closer to the top spots:

Male Breast Augmentation – Plastic surgery for male patients has exploded over recent years and tens of thousands more than ever before are opting for breast augmentation. Whether in the form of pectoral implants, reshaping are breast reduction in the case of underlying health issues, male breast procedures have become increasingly commonplace. Body Contouring – Body contouring without the use of surgery has been around for over a decade now but has of late grown in popularity like never before. There are dozens of different approaches when it comes to actually carrying out the process, though all are capable of offering incredible results without the usual stretched skin and after effects that follow tummy-tucks and gastric bypass surgery.

Asian Eyelid Surgery – This has recently taken the bronze-medal position as the third most common procedure in the US today, eyelid surgery basically involves the modification of the eyelid to create a bigger, more defined overall look to the eyes. The practice continues to attract enormous criticism however as many see the surgery as nothing other than a means by which Asians are able to create a more western/Caucasian look. Butt Lifts – Butt lifting surgery to give a larger, fuller appearance has been around for quite some time, thought the implants used have long been considered dangerous. However, today’s leading butt lift providers use the body’s existing fat reserves, taken out with liposuction and redeployed to the desired area Vagina Modification – Last but not least, vagina modification has also taken off in an enormous way of late. From reductions to enlargements to reshaping and everything in-between, basically anything a truckload of Cosmestore cosmetics cannot achieve can be found on the ‘menu' from most plastic surgeons today..Lord only knows what the new top-five will be in another decade or so…
