Not too long ago, cosmetic plastic surgery was meant only for a select few. Only celebrities such as actors, musicians or high net worth individuals could afford any kind of cosmetic surgeries. Today not only has the industry changed its image completely, literally millions of surgeries are being performed each year on people from all walks of life. To say plastic surgery is now a common occurrence is an understatement. One of the factors that have helped this industry grow so much and that too so fast is due to the growing popularity of non surgical cosmetic procedures.

Non surgical procedures are basically that type of cosmetic surgery where there are no incisions involved on any part of the body. Plastic surgeons do not need to cut open any part of the body where they are performing the surgery and no loss of blood etc is involved. Botox is the best example of a non surgical cosmetic surgery. More than 10 million Botox procedures are being performed each year world wide with the United States leading in the number of such procedures being performed every year. Other examples of non surgical procedures would include all types of laser treatments such as laser hair removal, laser tattoo removal, laser stretch mark removal amongst others.

Non surgical plastic surgery procedures are much cheaper than surgical procedures. Also usually these types of cosmetic enhancements involve none to negligible risk factors. The most important aspect of such procedures is the cost. While surgical cosmetic surgery can get quite expensive, non surgical procedures can cost as low as a few hundred dollars and are affordable by most individuals who desire to undergo these kinds of cosmetic surgeries. The cost as well as the low risk factors has been important reasons why the entire industry has grown at a rapid pace. In fact non surgical procedures have fast outnumbered surgical procedures in all markets where plastic surgery is popular.

The other great part about procedures such as Botox or laser treatments is that you can complete the entire procedure in a few hours and get back to your daily routine as well. There is no waiting for the body or facial features to heal. There are no restrictions on heavy activities and in most cases there are no restrictions on your diet as well. Non surgical plastic surgery is quite simple and you are able to follow your daily routine even if you go through such procedures quite regularly. As a matter of fact, many compare getting a non surgical cosmetic surgery to a standard appointment with your doctor where you are in and out of the hospital the same day and are back to your usual self immediately.

Given the number of advantages and ease of undergoing any kind of non surgical plastic surgery, it is no surprise that the industry has become so popular and is continuing to grow at a tremendous pace. Best thing about this type of cosmetic surgery is that anyone and everyone are able to afford them and do not have to disrupt their normal lives to get something like Botox or anything similar.
