Aesthetic Procedures Rise in 2022
The number of aesthetic plastic surgery procedures in 2022 rose 14% over the previous year, according to the latest data from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (Aesthetic Society). The increase was fueled by the increasing popularity of nonsurgical procedures such as skin treatments, body contouring, fillers and neurotoxins, the report said.
The Aesthetic Plastic Surgery National Databank each year highlights the latest trends in cosmetic surgery. Analyzing data from practices throughout the U.S., the annual statistics report offers some important insights into the changing face of the industry.
The most popular aesthetic surgical procedure in 2022 was Liposuction, the Aesthetic Society reported, while Neurotoxins were the most-performed aesthetic nonsurgical procedure.
