Cosmetic surgery is an optional course of action that is performed on normal parts of the body with the only purpose of improving a person’s appearance and removing signs of aging. In 2006, nearly 11 million cosmetic procedures were held in the United States alone. The number of cosmetic procedures performed in the United States has increased over 50 percent since the start of the century. Nearly 12 million cosmetic measures were performed in 2007, with the five most common surgeries being breast augmentation, liposuction, nasal surgery, eyelid surgery and abdominoplasty. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery looks at the statistics for thirty-four different cosmetic procedures. Nineteen of the procedures are surgical, such as rhinoplasty or facelift. The nonsurgical procedures include Botox and laser hair removal.
In 2010, their survey revealed that there were 9,336,814 total procedures in the United States. The increased use of cosmetic procedures crosses racial and ethnic lines in the U.S., with increases seen among African-Americans, Asian Americans and Hispanic Americans as well as Caucasian Americans. In Europe, the second largest market for cosmetic procedures, cosmetic surgery is a $2.2 billion business. In Asia, cosmetic surgery has become more popular, and countries such as China and India have become Asia's biggest cosmetic surgery markets.
Thailand is also one of the central cosmetic surgery markets in Asia, in particular for affordable breast augmentation and sex reassignment surgery, with international patients coming from Australia, Europe and neighboring Asian countries. Here is a video showing excellent works done by Doctors for the people who have been under depression or in trouble because of their physical appearance. One of the prominent reasons for the practice of cosmetic surgery is people commenting in other's look and not accepting them as they are.
