Why Were Breast Augmentations 2010's Top Procedure?

Posted April 13, 2011 in Plastic Surgery News

Breast augmentations ranked as the top cosmetic surgical procedure in 2010, and there are a number of good reasons for it. While women have always had insecurities with their bodies that they desire to fix, today's culture and medical practices have made it easier for individuals to go under the knife.

Why Are Today's Women Having More Breast Augmentations?

The culture, the evolution of the procedures and the clinical practices all make plastic surgery a more realistic option for women to have surgery today:

• Procedures are less invasive – doctors use a number of modern techniques to complete today's breast enhancements. These procedures offer faster healing times, less scarring, and require less time in the hospital.
• Breast enhancements have become more mainstream – years ago, most women enhancing their breasts chose to drastically increase their size. This made the procedure more controversial, as there were many that did not share the same appreciation for the look. Today, this is not what defines breast enhancements as many women opt for a natural look. The stigma surrounding breast augmentation no longer exists, making women more comfortable about having the procedure.
• The time commitment is decreased – as women can get back to work and back to their responsibilities faster.
