Popular Plastic Surgery Procedures For All Stages Of Life

Plastic surgery can be a great way to improve your appearance and help you feel more confident about yourself. Hundreds of thousands of people undergo one or more plastic surgeries every year for cosmetic reasons. Here are popular plastic surgery procedures that can benefit you in every stage of your life.

Young Adults

Women who have gone through puberty and are between the ages of 20 and 29 most commonly visit a plastic surgeon to have breast implants, or breast augmentation. At this stage in life, breasts are nearly or already fully formed, which means that the shape and size of the breasts are already at a fixed size. Considering some young women feel very self-conscious about their appearances, some want to gain a curvier figure to boost their self-confidence.

0 To 40 Years Old

Many people notice that their metabolism rates start to decrease after reaching the age of 30, which is why fat reduction is a common surgical treatment during this time period. Certain body parts can hold on to fat in a stubborn way, which can make it more difficult to lose weight. Liposuction and other surgical techniques can be used to reshape the body and remove pockets of excess fat.

40 To 55 Years Old

Throughout a person’s 40s, signs of aging can really start to set in. People often notice wrinkles around their eyes and in other parts of their face. The forehead and eyelids begin to droop, and other signs of aging become more visible. Plastic surgery and other cosmetic treatments can be used to reduce the signs of wrinkles, and improve the overall appearance of the skin.

Women between the ages of 40 and 55 may also express interest at having a mommy makeover, which is a procedure that combines liposuction, tummy tuck, breast lift, and/or breast augmentation, and helps women regain their pre-pregnancy bodies after having children.

55 And Older

As signs of aging become more prominent, it is common for people 55 and older to have surgical procedures such as a full facelift. A facelift is a series of procedures that address the loose, droopy skin around the eyes, cheeks, forehead and/or neck. Often, the goal with a facelift is to lift the brow, tighten the jaw line and cheeks, and reshape the neck.

Sometimes, women also consider having a breast lift at this age to help them overcome sagging breasts. A breast lift may or may not be combined with breast augmentation, depending on your body type.

Choosing The Best Treatment For You

Just because certain treatments are more popular during a specific stage in life, doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t have the procedure at another time. The amazing thing about plastic surgery is that it can be done at any age, allowing you to achieve a boost in self-confidence and improved satisfaction with your body.
