BOTOX Popularity Soars in 2005

BOTOX popularity is on the rise, contradictory to the common stereotypes. Rumors circulating state that the more "undercover" procedures such as vaginal rejeuvenation surgeries and pectoral implants in men are becoming the new facelift of a modern age, but facts show that facelifts are still in, thanks to BOTOX injections. 3.8 million BOTOX injections were performed last year alone; an impressive enough numer alone, yet more powerful compared to these statistics:

Plastic Surgeries in 2005
  • 1,033,581 chemical peels
  • 323,605 liposuction procedures
  • 298,413 rhinoplasty procedures (nose jobs)
  • 291,350 breast augmentations
  • 230,697 eyelid lifts
  • 134,746 tummy tucks
  • 793 vaginal rejeuvenations
  • 206 pectoral implants
It would seem that the public has moved more in favor of less invasive procedures and is more concerned with facial surgery. Youth lies in the amount of wrinkles in the face of the beholder, apparently!
