Top 5 Plastic Surgery Trends for 2022
Plastic surgeons nationwide have seen a significant growth in plastic surgery patients post-pandemic. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), 76% of plastic surgeons have reported an increase in cosmetic surgery demands within their practice. The motives for plastic surgery vary from patient to patient. Some patients simply want to look more refreshed since they’re beginning to transition to working in-office. On the other hand, some patients reported noticing post-pandemic body changes due to inactivity and aging due to stress. Whatever your reason may be, Dr. Crofts and his staff are here to accommodate your cosmetic surgery needs.
THE TOP COSMETIC PROCEDURES PATIENTS ARE SEEKING IN 2022:
Liposuction
Liposuction is the number 1 most popular procedure mentioned from the top 5 plastic surgery trends in 2022. Liposuction is a procedure that removes unwanted and/or stubborn fat using a cannula.
According to research done by the Journal of American Medical Association, Americans on average gained an estimated 1.5 pounds per month due to inactivity during the lockdown in 2020. This weight gain is most likely the reason for the significant increase in liposuction procedures post-pandemic era.
Facelift
One of the reasons for the surge in facelift surgeries is that people began noticing things they want to improve during video calls according to the study done by ASPS. One of the most important factors to consider when searching for a facelift plastic surgeon is the surgeon’s experience. A plastic surgeon’s experience and credentials are critical with any facial procedure to make sure he or she will give the most beautiful, natural, and youthful results all while preserving nerves and minimizing incisions.

Breast Lift
