The Top Cosmetic Surgery Procedures in 2018
Making ourselves look and feel great should be a top priority. In 2018 these surgeries and procedures were the most popular in the United States.
Dr. Tiller has over 30 years in all the procedures and he would love to meet with you and discuss your wish list…let’s make it happen:
- Breast augmentation: The enhancement of a patient’s breasts through the insertion of breast implants or the injection of fat transplanted from another part of the body.
- Liposuction: Liposuction can be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia, alongside other procedures, the relative convenience perhaps accounting for so much popular interest.
- Rhinoplasty: 218,924 rhinoplasties (a.k.a nose jobs) were performed in 2017.
- Eyelid surgery: Or blepharoplasty, if you prefer . Eyelid surgeries, which serve to tighten sagging skin or drooping eyelids, and can help reverse under-eye bags, the ASPS says.
- Tummy tuck: Or abdominoplasty, the removal of excess abdominal fat and skin and, often, the restoration of weakened stomach muscles.
The most popular non-invasive (or less invasive) procedures were:
- Botulinum Toxin Type A: Wrinkles be gone!
- Soft Tissue Fillers: Think lip injections, enhanced cheek bones, and diminished wrinkles—fillers are injections into recessed, sagging, or thin areas to plump them up.
- Chemical Peel: A chemical peel is maybe among the least invasive services available for a quick skin fix. Your clinician will apply a chemical solution to your face or neck that removes outer layers damaged by sun exposure, aging, or scarring.
- Laser Hair Removal: Body hair is always an option.
- Microdermabrasion: Similar to a chemical peel in that it removes the skin’s outer layer, microdermabrasion “gently sand[s] the skin,” to borrow the ASPS’s phrasing.
