New Survey Shows Continued Growth in Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures

 Northampton Facial Plastic Surgeon Authors New Book on Facial Rejuvenation

 Nearly seven million Americans underwent cosmetic surgical procedures in 2002, and about 75 percent of the procedures performed (5.3 million) were non-surgical, according to the newest survey just released by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. 

 For several years, Botox injections have ranked first among all cosmetic procedures, increasing 2400% since 1997.  Microdermabrasion, a procedure that uses fine crystals to polish the skin, showed the highest one-year gain of any non-surgical procedure, up 13 percent. 

Northampton facial plastic surgeon, Dr. William Truswell, discusses all these non-invasive procedures in his new book, The Non-Surgical Facelift Book.  “Minimally invasive procedures are the new evolution in Facial plastic Surgery.  Today patients want improvement and rejuvenation of their appearance with little to no surgery.    Free time is a precious item in our busy world.  These techniques are quick and affordable with minimal “down time” and no discomfort.  And they can dramatically enhance one’s natural beauty.”   

The book describes each of the rejuvenation procedures, such as Botox injections, laser skin resurfacing, collagen injections, and chemical peels.  It also explains how each procedure is done, what results can be expected and how long they will last.  The book contains 75 color photos—“before and after” of patients who have had the procedures.   “The book is written to present an organized and understandable description of how easy it is to look better and feel better about how you look,” says Dr. Truswell.
