While it is now common knowledge that celebrities and other public figures regularly opt in for elective surgeries, it is surprising to some that many other people are turning to it more and more. While many celebrities go to extremes when it comes to their procedures, most people who undergo cosmetic rejuvenation end up with results that look natural and realistically attainable.
However, the real question for our current situation is: Is it safe to get elective surgeries during the pandemic? The short answer is yes! Keep reading to find out why.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, approximately 18.1 million cosmetic procedures and 5.9 million reconstructive procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2019. Of the 18.1 million cosmetic procedures, it was mostly women that had them, accounting for up to 92% of all cosmetic procedures done that year. The largest age group to get cosmetic procedures are 40- to 50-year-olds, accounting for nearly 49% of them.
With more people working from home and spending time in front of the camera on Zoom, we’ve had a lot more time to focus on our self-perceived imperfections. Every time we hop on to those video conference calls, we’ve had a number of opportunities to examine our faces or other small things that we don’t like about our physical appearance. It’s never a bad idea to get a little extra help with those areas to improve our self-esteem.Â
In addition, spending more time at home provides the perfect opportunity for downtime and recovery after a procedure. With the way more things are happening online now, it’s a great way to get procedures done while also staying productive and on top of things.
