Less Common Procedures
The American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery has recently conducted a poll to understand if less common procedures are really as "in demand" as the media portrays. The results showed that these procedures are actually not as in demand as originally thought. These include vaginal rejuvenation, bicep or tricep implants, calf implants, buttock implants, lip implants, and penile enlargement.
"This survey highlights that even though there has been increased attention on these procedures, the numbers prove that the trend is minimal at this point in time" states one president of the AACS.
The study suggests that these procedures are being exposed in the media to increase awareness and to spike interest. However, the large percentage of the population undergoing plastic surgery still opts for the traditional procedures. Safety and cost were the two most important factors to participants when selecting a procedure. The reasoning behind this lack of interest varies from issues with safety, to a lack in extra funds. Researchers do predict that when people have a larger disposable income, these procedures may increase in demand.
