The Economy and Plastic Surgery

More money 💰 = more cosmetics 💅 Plastic surgeons discuss the connection between the economy and plastic surgery. In record numbers, Americans are opening their wallets and spending on plastic surgery procedures including breast augmentation, liposuction, and minimally-invasive techniques like Botox injections. For years, experts have looked for a connection between good economic times and a surge in plastic surgery. As it turns out, there may indeed be one. EXTRA $ = DESIRE FOR CHANGE It may be the way it goes, if you look at the numbers. An American Society of Plastic Surgeons report found that Americans spent more than $16 billion on plastic surgery in 2016, making it the biggest spending year the United States has seen in cosmetic surgery. Experts have noted a connection between a booming economy and plastic surgery. When consumers have extra spending money that often translates to a desire to change their appearance, it pushes up the numbers in plastic surgery. Disposable income in a hot economy. “I think when people have more discretionary income, people want to look good,” says Dr. Shaun Parson, a board certified plastic surgeon in Arizona. Parson says he has kept tabs on his client numbers in the last decade and watched them rise and fall with the economic times. “You could graph what happened those years in my practice, and it was remarkable to watch.” A HOT ECONOMY – CARS, TRIPS OR PLASTIC SURGERY? In good economic times, there will be splurge spending across the board. Parson says it’s a choice about where to put those extra dollars. “Some people will want to channel their money toward cars or home improvement, but others will look toward self-improvement,” he explains. When there’s cushion in the budget, often people will spend on what makes them happy, and that may be an option that makes a person look and feel better, like plastic surgery.
