The recent ASPS’ Plastic Surgery Statistics Report (published September 2023)* shows us the most popular plastic surgery among all age groups.
Want to experience a body transformation like never before? No other solution can give you the body you’ve always wanted than a body contouring plastic surgery. These procedures sculpt and redefine their physique by addressing stubborn fat deposits and enhancing your natural curves.
Here are the procedures that made it to the top:
Top 4: Breast Lift
Breast lifts have secured a spot in the top body contouring plastic surgeries for the second year in a row.
A breast lift doesn’t alter the size of the breasts but focuses on enhancing symmetry and achieving a more harmonious look. This technique involves repositioning the breasts to address concerns such as sagging, diminished volume, and nipples pointing downward. Many times, it’s part of combination procedures, such as mommy makeovers.
Plus-sized patients also benefit from breast lift or mastopexy as it enhances the shape, contour, and symmetry of the breasts, boosting their overall confidence. It’s also a part of mommy makeovers, allowing for an overall transformation that meets their body goals.
Top 3: Tummy Tuck
Tummy tucks are always in season, and for good reason. This procedure focuses on tightening and reshaping the abdominal area to enhance your waistline definition and achieve a visibly slimmer appearance.
The transformative effects of a tummy tuck include addressing loose or sagging skin, eliminating surplus fat deposits, and tightening abdominal muscles.
Many high BMI patients get a tummy tuck combined with liposuction to target the abdomen, waist, and flanks, creating an impressive hourglass shape. Plus, the latest abdominoplasty techniques ensure the safety and reliability of the procedure with fewer adverse effects.
Top 2: Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation continues to be a widely sought-after plastic surgery. Renowned for its popularity, breast augmentation has consistently ranked among the most favored cosmetic procedures since 2006.
This surgery involves enhancing the size and shape of the breasts through the use of implants, effectively addressing concerns related to small, uneven, or disproportionately sized breasts.
You’d think that plus-sized patients will no longer need to increase their breast volume through breast augmentation, but combining it with a breast lift for best results can restore sagging breasts brought about by aging, pregnancy, and dramatic weight loss.
Top 1: Liposuction
Liposuction has once again clinched the top spot for the most in-demand plastic surgery.
This procedure shapes the body by zapping away excess fat from targeted areas like the belly, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms, back, or neck, resulting in improved contours for a more balanced look. It’s the go-to procedure for tackling stubborn fat that just won’t budge, even with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
It’s also popular among individuals with high BMI, though it’s important to to consult with a qualified professional before getting this procedure. A personalized assessment and open communication with a skilled practitioner are crucial to achieving optimal results while ensuring the highest safety standards.
