Non-surgical procedures have dramatically outpaced more traditional cosmetic surgery in the past ten years. Even with plastic surgery advances, the more subtle and less costly changes offered by non-surgical products have wide appeal.

Has the downturn in the economy impacted the demand for cosmetic surgery in the US? According to Atlanta plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Feldman of Advanced Aesthetics, PC, the short answer is no. There has been steady demand for plastic surgery procedures. The industry has changed dramatically in the past ten years, however.

Non-surgical products, such as BOTOXR (FDA approved in 2002) and DysportR (FDA approved in 2009), have radically altered the plastic surgery landscape in the last decade. Non-surgical procedures are now more in demand than more traditional surgical procedures. Going by the sheer number of procedures performed, cosmetic surgeons now perform non-surgical procedures 90% of the time. By contrast, non-surgical procedures accounted for only 26% of the procedures performed in 2000.

Statistics supplied by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) confirm that the top 5 surgeries in the Southeast region are breast augmentation, liposuction, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, and facelift. Nationwide, tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) replaced facelifts in the top procedure list. The top five non-surgical procedures in the Southeast region are BOTOXR/DysportR, wrinkle fillers, chemical peels, laser hair removal, and microdermabrasion.

The Atlanta, Georgia, area reflects these national trends. Women compose a large majority of Atlanta plastic surgery patients, and breast augmentation is still far and away the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure requested. Non-surgical procedures, including wrinkle fillers like JuvedermR, have outpaced more extensive surgical procedures. While non-surgical procedures are less expensive and require far less healing time, the results from non-surgical procedures are more subtle, superficial, and temporary.

Drs Feldman, Gronka, and Raniere offer two options for cosmetic enhancement. They perform all surgical options at Advanced Aesthetics, PC in a modern surgicenter that combines a friendly home-like environment with a state-of-the-art medical facility. It is state-licensed and fully accredited. Advanced Aesthetics offers a full range of cosmetic surgical procedures of the face, breast, and body.

Truffles Medispa offers less intense non-surgical procedures such as Botox, Fillers, and Laser procedures for those patients looking to avoid surgery. Truffles is a deluxe Medispa offering these procedures and medical grade skin care, all under a Plastic Surgeon's expertise.

Breaking Down the Numbers: Trends in Plastic Surgery Show the Growth of Non-Surgical Procedures

How Young Is Too Young For Cosmetic Procedures?

UPDATED: 7:49 am EDT May 18, 2011ORLANDO, Fla. -- It used to be the best gift you could give a graduate was cold, hard cash. Not so anymore. Now a brand new nose or "Botoxed" smile are on the wish list of many teenage girls. But how young is too young to go under the knife or needle? Oh, the things women do to be beautiful. But on a recent spring day, the "woman" in the chair at Fresh MedSpa in Orlando was a 14-year-old girl. Lexy Hattori is in eighth grade, but she's one of the growing number of teens looking to have a little something done. ?I realized my armpits were getting very irritated a lot,? said Lexys. As a dancer, Lexys trains more than 20 hours a week, and that means she has to shave much more often than other teen girls her age, and it?s becoming painful, she said. So, her mom gave her the gift of laser hair removal. ?It was actually my idea,? said Sarah Hattori. Laser hair removal tops the list with teens, with more than 66,000 procedures done in 2010. Next on the list are nose jobs and skin resurfacing. But perhaps the most disturbing trend, said Amy Brock, owner of the Fresh MedSpa, are Botox injections, which are up 13 percent from last year for teens. Teenage girls have always been into beauty, but it?s gone from lip gloss to lip injections. And many teens and their moms say it's all fueled by the celebrity images they see every day. Just last fall, socialite and reality TV star Kim Kardashian received Botox injections. Brock said she's seen a 15 to 20 percent increase in teens coming to her for Botox or Juvaderm, and she has no problem saying no. ?It just would be unnecessary or almost silly,? said Brock. ?Girls who want to have an Angelina Jolie mouth or they want to have the cheekbones of a Kardashian. And I'll explain to them, 'Listen, you're not going to look like who you are,'? Brock continued. But that's not easy to hear when you're a young girl who's not happy with whom she is. Lindsy Garlock, 28, remembers that feeling all too well. She asked for and got new breasts when she graduated from high school. ?I think they understood. My mom definitely sympathized,? said Garlock. And now, a decade later, Garlock said she?s happy with her choice but wants to remind young girls that beauty is not skin deep. ?That's something you have to find inside yourself. If you're not happy with the person you are, no amount of plastic surgery is gonna change that for you,? said Garlock. That's a point young Lexy Hattori, who is now asking to have her teeth whitened, seems to be learning. ?I don't really think teens should get that much done,? she said. Brock also warns that beginning injections of Botox or Juvaderm too early can lead to a buildup of scar tissue. It can also become a very costly procedure as teens will have to have it retouched often.

Cosmetic Procedures On The Rise Around Memphis

GERMANTOWN, TN - The worries and wrinkles caused by the bad economy are being erased as cosmetic surgery is on the rise in the Mid-South.

All day, every day the number of credit cards swiped at Germantown Aesthetics increases. Doctor Gregory Laurence says, "We have absolutely never been busier, we have patients that are leaving to go other places to do procedures because we can't get them on our schedule." Dr. Laurence says he even has a list of 25 people waiting for vein procedures.

"It's a good mix between returning patients, but mostly it's new patients by referral." Dr. Laurence says, "I think the word is getting out that cosmetic surgery really delivers, it's the real deal."

Dr. Laurence says his advertising budget was cut when the economy crashed. Now business is booming just through referrals. He says new techniques with less recovery time and longer lasting results make the procedures more appealing. "Cosmetic surgery isn't your mother's cosmetic surgery," Dr. Laurence says, "With new anesthesia, patients can have zero bruising, have very fast weekend recovery, sometimes lunchtime recovery."

Plus, Dr. Laurence says, while people are still losing work, patients are willing to pay a little more if a simple fix can help save their job. "Patients come to us with a common story, my job is in jeopardy and everything is important, the way I look, present myself, my image. They say, 'What's available?'" A question that keeps patients coming in and a sign that people are willing to spend.

Cosmetic procedures with recoveries of more than a week are not increasing, many patients say they can't afford to take time off work.

According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery cosmetic surgery is up nearly 10 percent across the nation. The most frequently performed surgical procedure is breast augmentation, the most popular non-surgical is botox.

Woman's 52 Cosmetic Procedures

Cindy Jackson is beautiful, but she wasn't born with her show-stopping looks. She bought them.

Jackson, a Londoner who hails from the American Midwest, has had $100,000 in cosmetic procedures, including 14 full-scale operations as well as cuts, pulls, peels and jabs.

She's had Botox, five face-lifts and liposuction, and her eyes have been done – twice.

In total, Jackson has had 52 cosmetic procedures, a world record for the most procedures ever undergone by one person.

"I didn't set out to break, to set a world record, it was never my ambition, it's just that I had so much done," she said.

Asked why she had, she gave a simple reply: "For me, it was just to look better."

"For me, the best result is one that looks natural," Jackson added. "I wouldn't ever want anyone to stop and stare at me and say 'that woman's had a lot of surgery.' I would never want to look like I'd had anything done."

Jackson, 55, grew up in small town Ohio, with a short-tempered father and low self-esteem.

She recalled a comment someone made to her when she was young: "One guy said when I was 14, 'You know Cindy, when you smile, from the side your nose and chin almost meet.'"

"It was like being in the wrong body and wrong face and I felt that very much and wanted to change it," she said.

When her father died, he left her some money, and she used it to start her transformation.

She says she's been careful to take it slow, but also said she just wants to look beautiful and young.

"I feel like a young spirit and I don't want to look in the mirror and see and old face. I feel this is me," she said. "This is the way I should look."

Coping with the changes Psychological aspects of plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures

By Dr. LOU LaPORTA

Hernando Today Correspondent

Published: April 7, 2011

Updated: 04/07/2011 11:42 am

Cosmetic procedures, including minimally invasive procedures, cosmetic surgical procedures, and reconstructive surgical procedures, have become increasingly popular among men, women and even children in the United States.

This is despite the economic recession and a significant increase in unemployment during the same time period.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there was an across the board increase in 2010 from 2009 of all categories of cosmetic procedures. Such procedures include everything from liposuction to tummy tucks, breast augmentation to facelifts, neck surgery to nose jobs, chemical peels to dermabrasion, and laser treatments to Botox and collagen injections.

There were a total of 13.1 million cosmetic procedures performed in the U.S. in 2010; up 13 percent from 2009. This includes 1.6 million cosmetic surgical procedures; up 2 percent, 11.6 million cosmetic minimally-invasive procedures; up 5 percent, and 5.3 million reconstructive procedures; up 2 percent.

They report that $10.1 billion was spent on such cosmetic procedures; up 1.2 percent. Business from repeat patients increased 13 percent, with a 5 percent increase in office-based procedures.

One would assume that patients who undergo such procedures are therefore quite happy. This is true for many of them, with many feeling better about themselves and their lives.

However, people who may be predisposed to depression, anxiety, personality disorders and other psychological issues are more likely to experience an emotional letdown after a plastic surgery procedure.

Often, emotional changes come as a result of dissatisfaction with the procedure or the impact on their life and relationships. Many plastic surgeons have begun to encourage preoperative and postoperative counseling for their patients, something that has already been required and become the norm in bariatric surgery candidates.

Research published in the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery has identified several predictors of poor outcomes, especially for those who hold unrealistic expectations or have a history of depression and anxiety.

The researchers found that patients who are dissatisfied with surgery may request repeat procedures or experience depression and adjustment problems, social isolation, family problems, self-destructive behaviors and anger toward the surgeon and his or her staff.

In particular, the extent to which cosmetic surgery affects patients' relationships, self-esteem and quality of life in the long-term offers many research opportunities for psychologists, says psychologist Diana Zuckerman, PhD, president of the National Research Center for Women and Families, a think tank that focuses on health and safety issues for women, children and families.

Some studies have even gone as far as linking dissatisfaction with cosmetic surgery procedures to suicide.

For example, in one study, the National Cancer Institute found in 2001 that women with breast implants were four times more likely to commit suicide than other plastic surgery patients of the same age as the women who underwent breast implants, says Zuckerman.

Various studies have indicated that the type of procedure and the area of the body involved are correlated with significant differences in the degree of satisfaction with the procedure and propensity in the patient to have emotional difficulties.

Some studies result in dramatic statistics, with as many as half of those seeking "nose jobs" or rhinoplasty suffer from clinical depression, and nearly a third has attempted suicide.

Dr. Henri Gaboriau, of the Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, at Tulane University in New Orleans suggests that such studies are intended to help doctors decide in which cases plastic surgery is appropriate.

Focusing attention more on the fact that this is an issue deserving of doctors' attention rather than using statistics in a way that may stigmatize, suffice it to say that a very significant percentage of patients who are seen by dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons suffer from anxiety, substance abuse, addictive personalities, personality disorders and even suicidal tendencies.

Research findings demonstrate a high level of conflict between surgeons and patients suffering personality disorders after surgery, and that these patients were more likely to seek legal redress.

A special area of concern are patients who suffer from a mental illness which is directly related to their appearance. They find themselves seeking cosmetic procedures rather than psychotherapy and psychiatric treatment. These patients include those individuals with anorexia, bulimia and especially body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). Individuals who suffer from BDD are characterized as having a preoccupation with an aspect of one's appearance, and attempt to repeatedly change or examine the offending body part to the point that the obsession interferes with other aspects of their life.

They may have an imagined defect in appearance or markedly excessive concern with a minor physical flaw. These include a diversity of imagined flaws of the head, (including too much or too little hair), ears, skin, shape of the face, or other facial features.

Various body parts may be focused upon, including genitals, breasts, buttocks, extremities, shoulders, and overall body size.

Such preoccupation persists even after significant and repeated reassurance. BDD sufferers, especially those who remain undiagnosed, fail to recognize their problem originates in their brain. Instead, they mistakenly believe that if they could only fix their "deformed" physical appearance, their life will be transformed. So they seek out plastic surgery, assuming that the surgeon will immediately see how severe their defects are, and will correct them.

It is not surprising, then, that patients with body dysmorphic disorder are found commonly among persons seeking cosmetic surgery. Several studies show that 7 to 12 percent of plastic surgery patients have some form of BDD, and that the majority of them do not experience improvement in their BDD symptoms as a result, often asking for multiple procedures on the same or other body features.

They may end up even more obsessed with any imperfections left after the surgery, and obsess about any scars or the slightest asymmetry of the result. Others shift their focus to another perceived defect that was not addressed by the surgery.

In either case, the BDD patient often doesn't take long to seek out the next surgery. These patients are likely to become what the world at large perceives as "plastic surgery addicts."

Many doctors who study BDD believe that plastic surgeons come into contact much more often with BDD patients than do psychologists or psychiatrists. It is a surgeon's ethical responsibility to take into account the mental and emotional state of his patient before agreeing to operate, and most plastic surgeons are very aware of the nature and symptoms of BDD.

Therefore, many people who suffer from BDD are finally diagnosed as a result of being referred by their plastic surgeon to a psychologist or psychiatrist. It is important for all plastic surgeons to examine the nature of their patients' dissatisfaction with their appearance, such as whether they may have an excessive concern with a body feature that appears normal to nearly anyone else.

Plastic surgeons and other doctors who come into contact with patients unhappy with their appearance need to be aware of which patients may not adjust well psychologically or psychosocially after surgery, and understand their patients' internal motivations for surgery or other cosmetic procedure.

Cosmetic Procedures for Men Trending Up

 Average guys ignited the current growth trend in cosmetic procedures for men.

People generally associate women with plastic surgery procedures with a few men sprinkled in here and there. But according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) recent report on plastic surgery statistics, the number of men opting for cosmetic surgeries and other procedures increased considerably. The economic downturn caused a dip in the number of cosmetic procedures overall in years past, but the growth of male patients opting for the services has sparked a rebound for the industry.

Fastest Growth for Males in Surgical Procedures

In past instances of growth in cosmetic procedures for men, the surge had consisted largely of minimally invasive services, such as Botox for wrinkle reduction or fillers, like Juvederm and others. The current growth trend, kindled by men, involves a larger percentage of surgical procedures. The report shows a 14 percent increase in facelift surgeries and an 11 percent increase in otoplasty (outer ear) procedures. Other cosmetic surgeries men choose to undergo include liposuction, blepharoplasty (eyelid), breast reduction, and dermabrasion. Minimally invasive procedures in men increased as well. Botox and filler use rose by 9 and 10 percent respectively and laser hair removal by 4 percent.

A Cosmetic Procedure for Every Man

Men opted for 1.1 million image-enhancing procedures in 2010. The typical male patient is the average man, nearing retirement, who hopes the procedures will make him look as youthful as he feels. The aging relatively affluent baby boomer population comprises a large percentage of those undergoing the knife and other less invasive cosmetic options. Plastic surgeons report treating all types of men ’ from bankers and stockbrokers to mechanics and construction site foremen.

Top Surgical Choices for Men and Women

Men choose facelifts over any other cosmetic surgery and women overwhelmingly choose breast augmentations over other available surgical procedures. Breast augmentation, by the way, remains the top cosmetic procedure in the United States and continues to rise. Other favorites for both men and women include tummy tucks and rhinoplasty (nose reshaping). Women tend to begin undergoing cosmetic procedures at significantly younger ages than men, but men may eventually follow suit if they continue along this current trend.

Cosmetic procedures in Australia worth $1bn

COSMETIC procedures in Australia, including breast augmentation and liposuction, are now worth about $1 billion a year, a conference of surgeons has been told.

The annual Cosmetex conference, run by the Australasian College of Cosmetic Surgery (ACCS), opened in Hobart today featuring about 700 Australian and international doctors.

ACCS president Russell Knudsen said the global downturn had not adversely affected the Australian industry.

"Demand for cosmetic medical procedures has continued to rise with college member practices reporting increases of 10-20 per cent over the last 12 months," Dr Knudsen said.

"When you consider the number of cosmetic procedures performed, and the number of take-home anti-ageing products consumed, it is reasonable to estimate that Australians now spend as much as $1 billion annually on appearance medicine."

Dr Knudsen said there were around 16,000 breast augmentations performed in the last year and 15,000 liposuction procedures.

The Cosmetex conference runs until Saturday.
