Changing Ideals of Beauty
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery have recently released a survey to discover changing attitudes about beauty. The respondents were asked what they determined to be the most appealing quality in themselves and in others. Women ages 20 through 60 were surveyed and the results showed a change in both answers over time.
"It is always important to understand what our patients are most concerned about at different stages of their lives. We want to be equipped to help our patients make the right decisions to maintain their beauty at every age -- no matter which type of cosmetic medical procedure they are interested in," said the President of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
Women in their 30s were found to find their abdomen/hips as their number one part of their body to change, while women in their 20s, 40s, 50s, and 60s responded that their face was the part of the body they were most concerned about. The survey also showed that women had a decreased concern about their breasts and hips as they aged. Knowing statistics like these can help physicians identify changing ideals of beauty in women as they age and allow them to focus on areas that women are most concerned about.
