A recent study reveals that over two million people undergo cosmetic treatments every year. And most of these treatments are to enhance the aesthetics of the patient, primarily.
But, what are these Cosmetic Treatments?
In simple terms, any treatment that improves the aesthetics of a person for better is known as a cosmetic treatment. The scale and treatment options range widely from dermatology enhancements to implantations and in some cases, removal of the part as well. One of the most common cosmetic treatment is liposuction, that helps remove the unwanted fat from the patient’s body. As a result, the patient achieves a lean slim body.
However, it is not the liposuction treatment that tops the popularity charts. In fact, there are several others that are fast overcoming the popularity of this common cosmetic procedure.
Breast Augmentation
The treatment is also known as augmentation mammoplasty, which means changing the size of the breasts. The treatment is mostly sought by females who believe they either have uneven breasts or too small in size. The primary reason, this treatment is becoming so popular is it helps boost self-confidence in females who have always been worrisome about their aesthetic appeal. The treatment involves either injecting the breasts with saline water or placing silicone behind the muscle tissues. It helps lift, enlarge, and even improve the contours of the breasts. The treatment is permanent, which is why females prefer these treatments more often, particularly post-pregnancy.
Hair Transplant
Another treatment that is fast gaining popularity amongst all segments of the society is the hair transplant. Bald people have always been ashamed of their hair loss. But thankfully modern technology is helping bald people regain their confidence. Dr. Luis A. Viñas of Cosmetica Plastic Surgery & Anti-Aging explains that modern hair transplant procedures like Follicular Unit Extraction leave no scars, use no stitches or staples, and have a quick recovery time. The best part about this treatment is, there’s no use of artificial prosthetics. This is probably the most profound reason why this cosmetic treatment is becoming popular so fast.
Nose Reshaping
A treatment that was initially designed to cure the problems with sinus, is now fast gaining popularity amongst celebrities, in particular. Sinus is a condition that limits a person’s breathing because of blocked nasal passages, not because of any external material but outgrown nasal tissues. But recently, the rhinoplasty (nose job) is becoming more popular with people who wish for aesthetic improvements. Reshaping a round nose to a pointy one, or say a wide one to a pout nose, are some of the examples of rhinoplasty being performed for aesthetic improvements only.
Tummy Tuck Surgery
Lastly, a cosmetic treatment that is quite similar to the purpose of liposuction- helping gain a slimmer and lean body. Tummy tuck surgeries are recently gaining high popularity amongst people who struggle with extreme plum tummies. The fat is usually deposited below the navel, which is removed through surgery. Later the loose skin is properly stretched and the abdomen is given a leaner look.
Cosmetic surgeries are the new-age treatments, which not only help treat physical problems but also curb mental anxieties associated with a person’s aesthetics. This is the primary reason, these treatments are becoming popular. And most likely they’ll keep gaining more popularity in the near future.
