The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), has stated that the five fastest-growing cosmetic surgeries are procedures done to remove the excess skin. Approximately 68,000 “body contouring” procedures were performed last year, up 22% since last year. This amounts to over $700 million dollars in surgeon fees. This trend may be somewhat alarming in that people are finding a quick fix to shed unwanted pounds instead of changing their habits. There are other facial enhancements like revision rhinoplasty nose job repair that are in the top 10 as well.
This is particularly true in places like LA or Las Vegas where looks are everything and are part of persons livelihood. In the land of endless entertainment image is everything.
