Facelift Season?
February 7th, 2011
You wouldn’t suppose that there might be seasonality to cosmetic surgery, but over the past few years, I have noticed a pattern in my practice. In mid-January facelift consultations seem to spike. The Holidays are over, popular social events like summer weddings and reunions are more than several months away. The end of January and February seems to be the choice time for patients to explore having facial rejuvenation surgery. About 95,000 facelifts are performed each year. In Minneapolis, winter is a great time to recuperate without attracting too many questions and re-emerge to look rested and refreshed like returning from a relaxing vacation. Unlike the contestants of the reality show Bridalplasty savvy patients that opt for anti-aging procedures want to plan ahead to look their best, especially for important events. It is my recommendation that scheduling surgery well in advance of an important social occasion is optimal for a safe and stress-free recovery.
