Driven largely by the poor economy and personal financial worries associated with the recession, non-surgical treatments like Botox edged out breast augmentation, lipo suction and tummy tucks to become the most popular physician-administered cosmetic procedure last year. Women and men who were forced to keep a tight reign on their budgets chose to delay more extensive plastic surgery procedures last year and instead opted for Botox injections to maintain their youthful appearance.
Patients that opt for Botox treatments enjoy both low cost and fast recovery. The popular injections decrease the muscle movement that causes wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful look. Most procedures take only 30 minutes and allow the patient to return to work confident in her appearance the next day. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), demand for Botox injections have risen from 65,157 in 1997 to more than 2.4 million in 2008, an increase of 239%. The popularity of Botox cosmetic surgery has grown, particularly as a way to help aging Americans appear more youthful and energetic in order to compete against younger employees in the workplace. But Botox also appeals to today’s more active senior population, many of whom are dating and are more conscious of their personal appearance than previous generations.
Women and men seeking Botox treatments should make certain to schedule their treatment with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. Although Botox has the cachet of being harmless, inexpertly applied Botox treatments can cause permanent facial nerve damage or result in unattractive over-plumping of lips or facial areas. A skilled board-certified cosmetic surgeon has the education, knowledge and practical experience to successfully administer Botox treatments and enhance your personal appearance.
Last season, plastic surgeons Sean and Christian struggled to keep their fictional exclusive south Florida cosmetic surgery practice above water. The economy had FX's popular drama Nip/Tuck doing more Botox injections and fewer face lifts. While financial stress made for good drama, it may have made viewers assume that plastic surgery belongs only to the rich and famous. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
