Noninvasive procedures are on the rise, with more patients choosing to make a subtle change in 2016. Traditional plastic surgery has been obvious: bigger buttocks, larger breasts and slimmer waistlines that immediately catch the eye.
The number of noninvasive procedures continues to rise, given the population’s busy lifestyle and demand for no-downtime options.
According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, roughly 7,000 such procedures were performed in 1999. In comparison, nearly 8.9 million were completed in 2014.
"Noninvasive procedures are on the rise across the country."
What is a noninvasive procedure? This term covers those treatments that require little to no recovery and are able to be completed more quickly than their invasive counterparts. Treatments such as dermal filler injections, Ultherapy, SculpSure, intense pulsed light, laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels are all noninvasive procedures.
Patients are choosing minimally invasive procedures for many reasons. One of these is the ability to enhance more than one area of the body at once. Although some patients choose to change one area of the body, others have more than one "problem area," which can affect self-confidence and happiness even if other areas are enhanced. Noninvasive changes enable patients to take control of their entire appearance by targeting a range of areas.
By targeting these different areas at once, patients are also able to create a more balanced appearance. Patients choose multiple noninvasive procedures to increase effectiveness and capitalize on synergy between non-invasive treatments.
There are many noninvasive procedures available at Marotta Plastic Surgery Specialists. These include dermal filler treatments such as Botox and Juvéderm, as well as Ultherapy, SculpSure, photorejuvenation, and customized medspa facials.
