plastic surgery for teens

There is no denying that cosmetic surgery is popular among patients all across the age spectrum. However, some procedures are more in-demand with certain age groups than others. This makes sense. After all, people have different aesthetic concerns and priorities at different points in their life. To help some of my younger patients gain a better idea of how cosmetic procedures may be able to help them, I wanted to discuss a few of the more popular procedures that I perform on younger patients.

Since it is incredibly popular with women of all ages, it’s not surprising that breast augmentation is in-demand with younger patients. Breast augmentation uses breast implants (and sometimes fat transfer injections) to help women achieve the breast size and shape that they desire. Liposuction is also incredibly popular with younger patients who wish to remove pockets of excess fat that accumulate around the body (especially in areas like the abdomen and waist). Additionally, non-surgical cosmetic treatments for the face like Botox® injections and laser skin resurfacing treatments can help patients rejuvenate their look without the need for surgery. Some younger patients even choose to have Botox® to prevent potential wrinkles before they occur.

In the following video, I discuss which cosmetic procedures are currently most popular among younger patients that I see:

Thanks to the subtle, natural-looking results that can be achieved, more young people than ever are beginning to feel comfortable turning to cosmetic procedures to improve some aspect of their appearance. During consultations with younger patients, I am especially careful to make each patient fully understands the specifics of their respective procedure to make sure they feel they are making the correct decision.
