While surfing the internet and reading news stories, I found these plastic surgery news items and thought I would discuss them a bit here:
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has just recently released statistics that show Breast Augmentation Surgery has surpassed Liposuction becoming the most popular plastic surgery procedure in the U.S. More than 350,000 Breast Implant surgeries were performed in 2008. The gain in popularity is no doubt related to the the FDA allowing Doctors and surgeons to use silicone implants in breast surgery.
As more and more women are losing significant amounts of weight, many of these women are also electing to have Breast Enlargement Surgery. This trend seems to be strong in Houston Texas. After massive weight loss, it is common to see women having breast implant surgery to restore lost breast volume. Houston Plastic Surgeon Dr Bruce Smith is also seeing this trend with his patients.

BOTOX® is the most common minimally invasive cosmetic procedure with 3.8 million treatments in the U.S. in 2005. Botox works by improving the appearance of wrinkles in the face that are caused by muscle contraction. There is no down time required for a Botox injection. It is relatively painless and results are apparent within a few days. The effects of Botox typically last approximately four months.
