    Dr. Miguel Delgado Shares Just Released Cosmetic Surgery Statistics from ASPS with San Francisco Bay Area and Marin Patients

    PRWeb – Tue, Feb 14, 2012

    The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) is the world’s largest organization of Board Certified Plastic Surgeons. Each year ASPS comes out with statistics on the amount of cosmetic surgery and reconstructive procedures performed in the United States. Dr. Miguel Delgado, a member of ASPS, has reported to many of his San Francisco patients that the STATS for 2011 show a rise of 5%, making this the second year in a row with such an increase.

    San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 14, 2012

    Dr. Delgado stated per ASPS that for the year 2011, 13.8 million cosmetic surgery procedures were performed; this includes both surgery and what is considered minimally invasive procedures. Minimally invasive procedures were up 6% with almost 12.2 million performed. The top 5 would be:

    1.    Botox injections (up 5%)


    2.    Soft tissue fillers, such as; Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse and fat injections (up 7%)


    3.    Chemical peel (down 3%)


    4.                Laser hair removal (up 15%)


    5.    Microdermabrasion (up 9%)

    Cosmetic surgical procedures were up 2% with 1.6 million performed. The top 5 would be:

    1.    Breast augmentation (up 4%)


    2.    Nose reshaping (down 3%)


    3.    Liposuction (up 1%)


    4.    Eyelid surgery (down 6%)


    5.    Facelift (up 5%)

    It is interesting to note that facelift surgery is in the top 5 for the first time since 2004. This is attributed to the demands of the baby boomer population and older professionals still competing in the workforce.

    A popular surgical procedure for men, up almost 71% since 2010 is chin augmentation. It is believed that men are seeking a stronger more forceful appearance as noted in many actors such as George Clooney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brad Pitt and CEO’s of successful companies such as Warren Buffet and John Mack.

    It is encouraging to see significant growth in plastic surgery for two years in a row. Even though the economic recovery in the United States is uncertain, trends are showing consumer confidence is up.

Delgado, Jr., MD holds the two credentials most coveted by plastic surgeons practicing in the United States, namely certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and membership in the American Society of Plastic Surgery.
