Having work done is no longer a ‘TABOO’ subject…
July 8th, 2010 admin…Has Cosmetic Surgery become mainstream?
Society appears to be less judgmental about aesthetic procedures and in particular, Cosmetic Surgery. Botox has become a household name and thanks to Baby Boomers, Cosmetic Surgery is on the rise. According to 2 recent surveys by the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (AACS), Facelift and Blepharoplasty (eyes) surgeries have become the new most popular requested cosmetic surgeries:
Facelift surgeries rose 44% from 2008 to 2009
Blepharoplasty surgeries rose 42 % from 2008 to 2009
Also, 71% of respondents think society is less judgmental about Cosmetic Surgery than it was 5 years ago and 62 percent said society’s attitude toward Cosmetic Surgery made them feel more comfortable about getting a procedure. Having work done is not “TABOO’ anymore and refreshing your facial appearance can be done in less that 2 hours.
