The Natural Look: the New Trend in Cosmetic Surgery

Say goodbye to fake, puffy lips, large, surgically enhanced breasts, and “pulled” faces that are obviously “done.” The natural look is gaining major traction in the cosmetic industry—and that’s a good thing. Today, patients are focused on looking more like a well-rested, refreshed version of themselves. They want to look good without looking plastic.

Hollywood is a major influence in this new trend. In the past, Tinseltown embraced breast implants and other surgically-enhanced body parts. Today many filmmakers, producers, and casting directors are seeking actors and actresses who look more natural.

Celebrities like Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, and Jennifer Lopez are all proof that you can age gracefully without looking overdone. On top of that, they look better than most women half their age.

Preserving your youth

Now more than ever, patients are seeking cosmetic surgery to create a fresher version of themselves. They don’t want to look like someone else. They merely want to enhance their own features. According to a survey by The American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, patients of all ages are becoming desensitized to plastic surgery as more celebrities come clean about their cosmetic tweaks.

Having a little “work done” has become less taboo as well. In fact, in 2014, 82 percent of surveyed surgeons reported that celebrities were a major influence in their patients’ decision to have plastic surgery.

The survey also revealed a new trend that points to more young adults and teens opting for aesthetic procedures. In 2015, a whopping 64 percent of facial plastic surgeons saw an increase in cosmetic surgery or injectable treatments in patients under age 30. For these younger patients, it’s about slowing down the aging process and correcting those troublesome features.
