Popular Cosmetic Procedures in the 21st Century

There are many hundreds of procedures available to the average person. Twenty years ago, cosmetic surgery belonged firmly to the rich and affluent, fortunately, today; the cost of surgery has reduced considerably. Here are some of the more popular procedures you can buy with your hard earned cash:

Liposuction:

Liposuction is a procedure whereby fat is removed from the upper portions of the skin. This is a quick fix procedure for those of us who are overweight but who do not want to spend time dieting and exercising. Liposuction will reduce your weight, but surgeons will also reshape those areas, too, making them much more attractive than they may otherwise appear: sculptured and thinned thighs, for example.

Face lifts:

This is generally a procedure undertaken by people of a certain age. As we age, our faces tend to sag, a face lift is used to tighten the skin and create a more youthful appearance. Some people claim that a good facelift can take up to 20 years off your face - although we think it may be more realistic to expect 10 years off your appearance.

How Much Should You Expect to Pay for Cosmetic Surgery?

Clearly, the exact cost varies from individual to individual and from procedure to procedure, however, it is possible to provide a rough guide to prices.

Botox:

Expect to pay between 瞿150 and 瞿450 depending on where you are having the injections (e.g. forehead injections are more expensive than armpit injections because the procedure is more dangerous on the face due to the high levels of nerve endings - and, if you were wondering, many people have Botox in their armpits because it reduces sweating).

Breast Implants:

These can be very expensive, especially in the larger cities, such as London, where you can expect to pay as much as 瞿15,000 for implants undertaken by the country's leading surgeons. Cosmetic surgery North West is cheaper, and you could find a surgeon who will undertake the operation for as little as ?瞿6000. To get the best prices, it is worth shopping around.

Rhinoplasty (- nose job) will generally cost not more that 瞿4000, but again, it does depend on the individual and how much work is involved.

Cosmetic surgery can be expensive, then, but there are plenty of procedures that are relatively cheap. For example, a good way to rejuvenate your facial skin is to have microdermabrasion, which will cost as little as 瞿100 for a full course.
