Women are by far the industry leader for having some form of cosmetic surgery done. The number one procedure more and more woman are having these days is Botox. It is the hottest trend on the market.
The number two procedure The American Society of Plastic Surgeons says is performed over 296,000 times is breast augmentation. That number has increased by 2% since 2009. This is not to be misunderstood that 296,000 women decided to have breast implants, this number also includes women who are having breast reductions, breast lifts, or a number of other procedures.
Breast augmentation is a procedure where the age range varies greatly due to the differing procedures. Of course typically it is the younger women who get breast implants where someone a little older would like a lift or reconstructive surgery due to cancer. The figures are quite staggering when you see the ages of people having plastic surgery done.
The age group 20-29 year olds had 747,000 cosmetic procedures, whereas people in the age bracket of 30-39 year olds had 2.4 million total cosmetic procedures, and the surprising group making up 48% of women have these procedures done are the 40-54 year olds.
