Economy Rants: Downsizing On Cosmetic Surgery

Couple of things going on in our very own US of A brings newer facets of the plastic surgery profession to light.

 

For instance, there is the fight to hang on to cosmetic surgery by a faithful few. Reuters reported ASDS studied trends that noticed the American economy instead of discouraging people from spending on cosmetic surgery (still a luxury for the masses), is doing just the opposite.

 

Individuals are downsizing their needs and going in for injectable filler treatments that are less costly then a traditional face lift. Similarly, people are opting for an injection lipolysis instead of a liposuction procedure, a filler treatment for reducing wrinkles instead of an eyelid surgery, and so on.

 

Dr. Rigel of the ASDS sums it up very succinctly saying, "It's kind of like going from a Cadillac to a Buick."

 

But how much is this downsizing really helping the smart American? Less expensive and less painful alternatives to various cosmetic surgery procedures ultimately also yield less permanent results. Regular repetitions of these administrations are still required to maintain the look.

 

So what you end up doing is spending the same on your plastic surgery over a long-drawn period of time. Time to get smart I say and find out better affordable plastic surgery alternatives at the Plastic Surgery Institute of California.
