Few, who does not advocate or prescribe Ozempic for weight loss in his own practice. “I met with a representative for one of the big three that make aesthetic injectables, and he shared that the number one cosmetic treatment in the Midwest is Ozempic - more than the aesthetic injectables ,” says Dr. This is also because more people are getting plastic surgery after taking Ozempic - and a lot of people are taking Ozempic. This is part of a growing focus on offering combination procedures, those “that help the patient get to where they want, instead of simply saying, ‘We'll make your boobs bigger,’” says Dr. Williams says finishing a breast augmentation with liposuction might add $1,000 to $2,000 to the procedure.) Few may include fat injections to smooth minor irregularities in the cost of a lift, but says the cost can vary - from $2,500 to $10,00 - depending on how much volume is being added and where in the country you're having it done. “It's a mistake to focus just on the breast and say, ‘Okay, I've made the breast bigger’ - it's really about the overall palette.” (Typically, Dr. “Taking a little bit of volume from the lateral chest or from the axilla tends to produce a more natural-looking breast, and helps to avoid people looking top heavy and like they gained weight,” says Dr. Liposuction can also be helpful in breast augmentation. “I did the reveal of taking off bandages and she started crying and said, ‘I never thought my body could fit how I feel.’ It can be amazing.” This is one way patients are using plastic surgery to feel more comfortable in their body, Dr. Doft gave the first patient a perkier lift and the second a shape that “was almost like a ballerina, small and understated.” I like to run, and my breasts are too large and they're asymmetric.’ The other said, ‘I don't feel like my body represents who I am.’” Dr. Doft explains, adding that she had two breast-lift patients on the same day who both wanted to be a B cup but for different reasons. They’ll say, ‘Sometimes I like to feel more feminine, and sometimes I kind of want to hide my femininity.’” It’s a slightly different procedure, Dr. Doft, “I have a lot of patients who come in now who want to be androgynous, and want a breast that is beautiful and can be very feminine, but could also be hidden when they want it to be. This is a patient who “100% would have said ‘I want to do an implant’ five years ago.” And this is one reason breast lifts have been one of the top-five most requested procedures two years running, after never having graced the list before, according to the ASPS.īreast lifts are becoming more nuanced too.

Other patients who might have asked for implants just a few years ago are now skipping them, instead getting breast lifts to perk things up without adding volume. Few say a lot of their patients are choosing to have implants taken out altogether around the 10-year mark, whether it’s because of questions surrounding implants (a controversial topic full of misinformation that is a whole article on its own) or aesthetic reasons. Indeed, more people are having their implants removed: Dr. “At some point, usually in the mid-60s and beyond, patients tend to not want large breasts anymore, and if you've really stretched out the skin, now you're talking about a pretty substantial lift with implant removal.” That could mean a riskier procedure, he says, because “historically, one of the issues with removing implants and doing a lift at the same time is that you worry about the blood supply to the nipple.” There are medical upsides to smaller implants too: “Long-term, it potentially causes less injury to the breast,” says Dr. Patients might say they want a more “athletic-looking” body, want to be able to go braless, or “want a small curve that’s more manageable - they don't want their breasts defining them,” explains Dr. Doft, an observation echoed by all the plastic surgeons we interviewed. “Five years ago, everyone wanted to be a C cup or some people wanted to be a D now it’s a large B, small C,” says Dr. ![]() Over the last four years, the number of breast reductions has shot up by 54%, according to the ASPS, while the most requested implant sizes have gotten smaller.
