Skin Deep! Top 5 Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Procedures

Have you ever considered plastic surgery? If you have, you are not alone. Once considered to be a vanity exercise for the rich and famous, in the 21st century, cosmetic plastic surgery has gone mainstream, with people from all walks of life, both women and increasingly men, opting for a little nip or tuck. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there were more than 1.7 million cosmetic plastic surgery procedures performed in the U.S. in 2015. Here are the Top 5 prodecures:

1. Breast Augmentation
2. Liposuction
3. Nose Reshaping
4. Eyelid Surgery
5. Tummy Tuck

It might surprise you to discover that the ubiquitous ‘face lift’ didn’t make the Top 5 in 2015 after having been on the list every year since the turn of the century. Procedures that didn’t make the Top 5, but are rapidly gaining in popularity include Upper Arm Lifts, Lower Body Lifts, Buttocks Lifts, and Breast Lifts.
