Rhinoplasty
The top cosmetic surgical procedure in 2000 was rhinoplasty,
with 389,155 procedures performed and is the highest male cosmetic
surgery procedure by a significant amount. The number of plastic
surgery procedures performed is continuing to grow in every
age group, with 7.4 million people having undergone cosmetic
procedures in 2000 that has continued to increase. Even in a
time of economic hardships, the number of people  requesting
a cosmetic surgery procedure remained constant. There have been
major societal shifts in the opinion of cosmetic surgery, not
only has it become more widely accepted and performed, but it
is not just reserved for the rich and famous.
About two thirds of cosmetic patients have family incomes
of less than $50,000 per year, making cosmetic surgery procedures
such as rhinoplasty more accessible to people of a lesser
income than the Hollywood stars. While rhinoplasty procedures
are still one of the top cosmetic surgical procedures performed,
there has been a decrease in rhinoplasty while other cosmetic
surgery has increased due to a more accepting view of ethnic
beauty opposed to the traditional image of beauty of the past.
At the same time, people are no longer afraid of talking openly
about their cosmetic procedures.
The openness Americans have developed with rhinoplasty and
other cosmetic procedures shows how in the days of improving
overall health and wellness Americans want to look as good
on the outside as they feel on the inside. With the growing
openness also comes the danger of beginning to view rhinoplasty
and other cosmetic surgery procedures as such a common occurrence
that safety is overlooked. There is an alarming number of
reported botched jobs as rhinoplasty and other cosmetic surgery
patients have been trying to save a few bucks instead of take
the time to investigate who is performing their surgeries
or learning what risks are associated to the procedure.
