Cosmetic procedures overall saw an increase between 2017 and 2018, according to the 2018 Plastic Surgery Statistics Report. Both cosmetic surgeries and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures climbed by 3%. Botox cosmetic procedures were, by far, the most common minimally invasive procedures performed in the U.S.
Since 2000, Botox cosmetic procedures have increased by more than 700%. There are many different reasons for this.
Increasing Acceptance
As News.com in Australia reports, Botox has been around for 15 years now. When the procedure first became available, many people denied they had used Botox for cosmetic reasons (although it’s been used for decades for medical purposes). Now, using Botox to remove or minimize small lines and smooth the face is as much a part of a beauty routine as using sunscreen. At Javan Wellness, Botox cosmetic procedures are one of our more popular options due to the convenience, safety, and rapid recovery time.
Media Exposure
More celebrities are admitting that they had Botox injections, as discussed in SheFinds. We used to wonder what the stars did to stay so youthful and fresh, but now we know. Since Botox is so affordable, lots of regular people can get the treatment, unlike procedures like facelifts or other, more invasive, surgeries.
Self Confidence
Some people get very judgmental about Botox, suggesting that those who get cosmetic procedures are doing so due to low self-esteem or a fear of aging. In fact, we find that many of our customers want to look refreshed. They use phrases like “Well rested” and “just got back from vacation.” When just a small amount of injection is used, a soft, smoothing effect occurs that looks gorgeous.
Many people who opt for Botox cosmetic procedures and other minimally invasive treatments know that they have a right to look like their best self.
Men Get Botox Too
Since so much of the marketing for Botox cosmetic procedures is targeted toward women, it’s not surprising that men may think this procedure isn’t for them. In fact, according to Botox, the number of men receiving the treatment has increased by over 300% in the last two decades. After all, men also lose collagen in their skin as they age, see more wrinkles develop, and gradually see their skin’s health decline. There’s absolutely no reason that men don’t deserve to experience the same, powerful effects of attractiveness and self-confidence that women receive when they experience proper cosmetic procedures.
