For many people, plastic surgery is a somewhat difficult topic. It seems, to some, that this sort of surgery is a bit contrived, or vain; yet, at the same time, the surgeries are becoming more and more common, and more and more subtle in their effects. Really, the best way to think about plastic surgery is that it is essentially an element of fashion. Just like people will dye their hair or change their clothes in order to affect image, many will consider undergoing plastic surgery in order to change their appearances. And, just like in fashion and style, plastic surgery seems to run in trends, with certain surgeries and methods more popular at some times than at others. For a bit more information on some current trends in plastic surgery, take a look at a website like About Plastic Surgery. In the meantime, here are a few words on some current trends.
To begin with, as specifically noted on the website listed above, it is becoming increasingly “trendy” or common for women to do extensive imaging research before undergoing breast augmentations. This seems a bit simple, but it is actually relatively new. In the past, women essentially had to “pick a size” for their breasts, and trust their doctors to do well. Now, however, plastic surgeons have extensive libraries full of before-and-after photos, as well as image prediction computer programs that can accurately depict the change that will occur in a woman’s figure. Thanks to these sorts of tools, women are able to much more accurately understand how they will look following breast augmentation.
Another popular trend in plastic surgery concerns less invasive methods for facial changes. Generally, facelifts are considered somewhat all-encompassing procedures that can affect great change in the face, such as removing the bags under people’s eyes, or reducing wrinkles. However, methods such as botox and collagen injections have proven to achieve essentially the same effects in most cases, leading many patients to avoid facelifts if possible. After all, as long as the method you choose works well, why not choose the less expensive and less invasive way?
Of course, these are just a few of the many trends going around in plastic surgery. There is plenty of information online regarding more trends, and trends for specific types of plastic surgery. So, if you are curious about what most people are doing lately, or even if you simply want more information on a procedure you are considering, trends may be a good place to start. Often, trends in surgery can indicate which methods are most successful.
