Boomers Turning to Cleveland Cosmetic Surgery
As many Baby Boomers are proving, there’s no age limit on the desire to look attractive. A growing number of men and women who are beginning to show signs of aging are turning to Cleveland cosmetic surgery to turn back the clock.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, people between the ages of 35 and 50 underwent more than 4 million cosmetic surgery procedures in 2010, 44% of the total 9 million procedures performed in the U.S. last year.
The leading edge of the Boomer generation, people 51 to 64 accounted for 28% of the cosmetic surgeries performed. The growing number of Cleveland cosmetic surgery patients in their mid to-late 40s and early 50s reflects society’s changing attitudes toward aging.
- With life expectancy increasing, more people are staying in the work force longer. Using cosmetic surgery to maintain a more youthful appearance puts mature workers on a more equal footing with younger rivals.
- Boomers are remaining vibrantly active longer than previous generations. Their lust for life is changing society’s expectations about aging. Boomers are unwilling to let the effects of aging – droopy eyelids, sagging jowls and turkey necks – make them look older than they feel. They refuse to look old and tired when cosmetic surgery can adjust their outward appearance to mirror their inner zest for life.
- Boomers believe you’re never too old to try something new. They’re the first generation that doesn’t believe you have to live with the embarrassing development of wrinkles and unattractive sagging skin. They are not embarrassed to admit when nature needs a little help from a skilled Cleveland cosmetic surgeon. And if they’ve fought the battle of the bulge and won, they don’t think they’re too old to reward themselves with a cosmetic surgery makeover that will make them proud of their new body.
