Anti-Aging Cosmetic Procedures For Any Age
Posted on January 29, 2013 | by Boston Plastic SurgeryAccording to a new info-graphic released by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), as we age our expectations for how we look change. This change in expectations is reflected in the procedures chosen by various age groups.
Getting The Appearance You Want Through Cosmetic Procedures
For women between the ages of 19 and 34, procedures like breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and laser hair removal are at the top of the list of things to have done.
This is because cosmetic procedures can correct the facial and bodily imperfections. A breast augmentation can help improve a woman’s figure, breast volume, and can help to correct any asymmetry in a woman’s bust.
This age group of women represent just under 20 percent of surgical and non-surgical procedures, but the focus of their procedures are definitely more toward smooth skin and a proportionate appearance.
Maintaining A Youthful Appearance With Cosmetic Procedures
The 35 to 50 year old group of women represent about 43 percent of surgical and non-surgical procedures as of 2011. They are the largest group for plastic surgery and are mainly focused on maintaining their youthful appearance.
This group of women represent nearly half of all Botox, Dysport and Xeomin injections. They also use skin resurfacing therapies, such as chemical peels or laser treatments, to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other skin blemishes.
A surgical procedure that is gaining popularity, especially in this age group, is known as the Mommy Makeover. A Mommy Makeover consists of breast surgery, like a breast augmentation or a breast lift, and either a tummy tuck or liposuction, or both. This procedure aims to get a woman back to her pre-children body.
Cosmetic Procedures to Turn Back Time
In the older age groups, 51-64 and 65+, maintaining a youthful and energetic appearance takes precedence. Using surgical procedures like eyelid surgery, brow lifts, face lifts, and neck lifts, the women in these age groups want to rid themselves of the sagging skin and wrinkles that come with aging.
