Plethora of Factors Driving the Demand for Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery procedures have gained wide acceptance

in recent years. Last year, the American Society of

Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) reported that more than 15.1

million plastic surgery procedures were performed in

2013, an increase of 3% over 2012. Apart from the desire

to improve appearance and self confidence, there are

many factors driving the demand for plastic surgery.

One trend that is getting a lot of attention these days is

of people spending thousands of dollars on cosmetic

procedures to look like a popular celebrity. One of the

most recent cases is that of a Houston woman who

underwent cosmetic surgery procedures to look like her

favorite star, Jennifer Lawrence. According to the abc13

report said, 30 year old Kitty Jay underwent seven plastic

surgery procedures to make her dream come true. She

spent up to $25,000 on a Brazilian butt lift, rhinoplasty,

breast augmentation, liposuction of the hips and thighs

and fat grafts to cheekbones. She did have a resemblance

to her idol and her aim was to look even more like her.

Other than the celebrity obsession, another development

that is driving the desire to have cosmetic procedures is

the selfie mania. People are undergoing procedures to

make themselves look catchy in the snaps they post of

themselves on social platforms.

More and more moms are having mommy makeover

procedures to rejuvenate their post-pregnancy

appearance. Among the procedures, minimally-invasive

liposuction owes its popularity to its ability to remove

stubborn pockets of fat and contour even delicate areas

of the body. In fact, bridal liposuction procedures are

helping women and men look awesome on their big day.

Having plastic surgery is a highly individualistic state of

affairs. Everyone wants to look beautiful and there’s

nothing wrong with that. However, you should know that

you should have realistic expectations, and that staying

healthy with proper diet and exercise is critical to

maintaining the results.
