As the economy continues sliding downwards, Beverly Hills plastic surgeons are saying, your forehead doesn’t have to. Plastic surgery in Beverly Hills has definitely seen a change with the economy. Patients are tending to put off more expensive and invasive plastic surgeries like Beverly Hills facelift surgery or breast augmentation, and opting for the less expensive and invasive procedures like Botox or chemical peels.
One woman facing her 30th high school reunion went to Beverly Hills facial plastic surgeon Dr. William J. Binder to see what options she had for achieving a younger look without breaking the bank. She opted out of facelift and instead received the Beverly Hills Botox treatment, which targeted the lines around her eyes, forehead, and mouth. Worried that she could not afford a facelift, and the more permanent results that come with it, the woman later wrote to Dr. Binder, “I was at my 30th reunion last week and people could not stop commenting on how great I look. Lucky for them I still had your card in my purse. I owe it all to you. Thank you!”
And this has been becoming a recent trend. In a survey from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 59 percent of the respondents said in October that the economy had affected their plans for cosmetic plastic surgery, a jump of 9 percent from March.
Among those considering having some work done, 27 percent said they would consider less expensive procedures — such as Botox, chemical peels or hyaluronic acid fillers — a bump of 7 percent from March.
So while people are not willing to give up cosmetic procedures all together, more people are interested in minimally invasive procedures, which not only are the less expensive option, but also assure that they will not have extensive downtime, recovering outside of work. Botox, a neurotoxin that weakens or paralyzes muscles in order to remove wrinkles, lasts for three or four months. Fillers like Restylane, Perlane, Juvéderm, Radiesse and Sculptra are injected to fill in lines and plump volume loss associated with aging. These fillers last six months to a year.
One plastic surgery procedure that has not seen a significant drop however is Beverly Hills rhinoplasty. Obviously there aren’t as many options for a quick fix instead of nose surgery, though there are some. Dr. Binder has performed both extensive and non-surgical, and even revision rhinoplasties for patients from many different parts of America.
Minimally invasive procedures have come a long way, even just in the past decade. Now, trained and board-certified plastic surgeons can create a youthful look which lasts longer than ever possible. It is important however, not to overdo it. Though fillers like Restylane last around 6 months to a year, your surgeon can create an optimal regimen for you and your aesthetic needs.
