Over the years, Dr. Simopoulos has worked with a variety of patients from all across the globe. Throughout his career, Simopoulos has seen the rise and fall of many popular trends in cosmetic surgery. In this blog, Dr. Alexander Simopoulos looks into the year ahead predicting the newest trends for 2016. Listed below are some cosmetic surgery procedures to look out for in the new year.

Butt Augmentation

For the past few years, the popularity of shaping the buttocks has continued to rise. Butt augmentation is clearly a trend that is here to stay. However, many boards certified doctors including Dr. Alexander Simopoulos have noticed that the popular types and styles of butt augmentation have changed. These days, doctors have noticed that while patients are still very interested in the butt augmentation procedure, they are going for a more conservative and natural look. They want a certain firmness and shape, but they are not looking to make drastic changes to the size of their buttocks.

Minimally Invasive Techniques

Minimally invasive cosmetic surgery techniques are becoming more and more common. Depending on what a patient is looking for, these techniques can provide a patient with the look they desire without having to make major incisions. This leads to less scarring, less pain, a quicker recovery time, reduced costs and an overall higher satisfaction rate for patients. Look for new technologies and more common minimally invasive procedures in the years to come.

Male Cosmetic Surgery

This past year, more men have sought out plastic surgery than ever before. With the continuing pressure to look young in business, relationships, and other areas of life, more and more men have reached out to plastic surgeons to enhance certain physical features. The two most common body parts men look to enhance are their chest and their eyelids.

These are just a few of the major cosmetic surgery trends that are sure to rise in the upcoming year of 2016. For more information about the above procedures or other cosmetic procedures, contact Dr. Alexander Simopoulos today and set up a consultation.
