In recent years, the stigma surrounding plastic surgery has significantly diminished. This has led to a notable increase in the number of men and women choosing to invest in cosmetic treatments and procedures. While we never advise following trends with permanent changes to your appearance, it is interesting to notice the changes in our industry as we start a new year. Here are 3 trends we are noticing in 2024.

1. A Return To Natural-Looking Results

Over the past 10 years, there has been an emphasis on dramatic aesthetic changes among celebrities and influencers. Now cosmetic surgeons are observing a shift toward patients wanting more subtle results and a celebration of their own unique features. In 2024 this may look like more subtle lip & facial fillers (Layla's specialty) and a more conservative approach to eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty and facelifts (Dr. Anand D. Patel's specialty).

2. Younger Demographic Seeking Out Botox & Dysport

TikTok and Instagram have popularized neuromodulators (like Botox & Dysport) among a younger demographic of men and women. Previously, these injectable treatments were more commonly associated with older individuals, but the influence of social media has removed the stigma among a new generation of beauty enthusiasts. As a result, the age range of individuals seeking neuromodulator treatments has expanded.

3. Early Facelift Intervention

More individuals are turning to facial plastic surgery procedures as prevention to age more gracefully. Instead of waiting for a full facelift, we see more patients in their 40's and 50's choosing early intervention with a mini-lift. The lower cost, shorter surgery time, and faster recovery are all reasons so many opt for a mini-lift. Watch Dr. Patel's Morning Blend news segment about the mini facelift to learn more about it.
