Some forms of cosmetic surgery have most certainly become more popular than others over the years, with procedures that aim to enhance or improve facial features being the most popular of all. Below are a few popular plastic surgery options for patients who would like to retain their youthfulness that are trending at present.
Eyelid Surgery
Also known as blepharoplasty, eyelid surgery remains one of the most popular plastic surgery options available. This procedure helps restore eyelids that have started drooping and it can reduce the appearance of puffy skin under the eyes that makes you look tired – even when you aren’t. Incisions are made to help remove the excess skin and fat deposits and these are usually made in the natural creases of the eyelids to reduce the appearance of scarring afterwards. In most cases, the procedure takes no longer than an hour or so to perform and the recovery time is relatively quick as well.
Botox
Owing to the fact that its effects are not permanent, Botox is an extremely popular facial aesthetic procedure as well. It is able to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, frown lines and crow’s feet within a few days of being administered, and its effects can last for between six and eight months. Botox can be used to reduce the appearance of neck bands and lip lines as well. This is an ideal treatment option if you would like to look younger, but you are not yet ready to commit to having any permanent surgery performed.
Microdermabrasion
This aesthetic procedure has gained immense popularity because of the fact that you are able to return to your normal daily routine within a day or two at the most after having it done. Microdermabrasion works by removing the top layer of facial skin in an effort to reduce the appearance of fine lines, sun spots and even acne scarring. In order to achieve the most benefit from this procedure, you may need to have a few sessions performed. An added advantage is that this procedure is relatively painless, but you will need to stay out of the sun afterwards.
Face Lift Procedures
Another form of popular plastic surgery involves face lift procedures. These can go a long way in helping to remove wrinkles, fine lines and crow’s feet from your face on a more permanent basis than other forms of treatment. Having a face lift will help redefine your jaw line, remove laugh lines and eliminate forehead creases quickly and effectively. One of the main advantages of having a face lift performed is that the end results can last for as long as 10 to 15 years.
When having any plastic surgery performed, it is crucial to ensure that you are making use of a surgeon who is experienced in performing the procedures that you would like to have done.
