As your physical appearance matures, the plastic surgery options that yield the best results will change as well. Depending upon your unique aesthetic needs and physical characteristics, which change with age, some procedures are more suitable than others for achieving the look you desire. Learn more about cosmetic procedures that are commonly performed on people in your age group and watch our plastic surgery video to find out if treatment is right for you. Please note that a full consultation with a cosmetic surgeon is necessary to determine precisely which procedures will be safest and most effective for you.
According to statistics provided by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, teenagers (aged 13-19) underwent more than 90,000 plastic surgery procedures in 2006. According to the organization, rhinoplasty, male breast reduction, and otoplasty are the most common procedures performed on teens.
Patients in their 20s typically do not have to worry about cosmetic concerns associated with age. Cosmetic surgery procedures performed on patients of this age group are aimed at improving a specific area of the face or body. Breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and liposuction are some of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed on patients in their 20s. Skin care treatments are also popular amongst 20-somethings. Minimally invasive skin care procedures can improve the health and texture of the skin, and reduce the appearance of acne scars, sun damage, and other skin problems that can appear during adolescence.
In the 30s, most patients only need a little upkeep to maintain a rejuvenated appearance.
Men and women in their 30s may start to notice fine lines in the facial area, but they can typically be addressed with non-invasive treatments that require little to no downtime. For men and women seeking to refresh their skin and minimize the appearance of wrinkles, the following treatments are effective solutions:
By the time men and women hit their 30s, they typically find that their bodies don't respond to diet and exercise the way they did in the teens and 20s. Women who have had children may experience difficulty ridding their body of the excess skin and fat that accumulated during pregnancy. A slowing metabolism can result in pockets of fat that become more difficult to remove through diet and exercise. Body contouring treatments are designed to target problem areas, and can effectively tighten and refine specific areas of the body.
Depending upon the severity of wrinkles, loose skin, and excess fat affecting the face and body, your cosmetic surgeon may recommend less invasive skin care treatments or a surgical procedure that provides more dramatic results. Below are some common areas that cosmetic patients in their 40s seek to have addressed through cosmetic surgery and dermatology procedures.
