FOREVER YOUNG: PLASTIC SURGERY AND INJECTIONS SOAR IN US, PARTICULARLY AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE
Plastic surgery, often seen as a hallmark of modern medical aesthetics, has roots that delve deep into history. Today's procedures, both surgical and minimal, blossomed with technological advancements and the increase of social acceptance of new techniques to alter appearance. Plastic surgery has morphed through the ages — long before the first Botox injection smoothed a wrinkled brow or eased a headache. For Millennials, what used to be an afterthought later in life, plastic surgery is now a part of their self-care. According to national data, 1.6 million cosmetic surgical procedures were done in 2023. In the U.S., 25.4 million minimally invasive procedures were performed in 2023.
