While our economic state is slowly getting worse, one industry that is feeling the crunch is cosmetic surgery.

People who were once considering getting a facelift, breast augmentation or liposuction are now having to rethink their financial situation and make a choice whether going through with their cosmetic surgery procedure is worth the cost or if it’s better to save for that rainy day.

According to this article on  CNN: Cosmetic Surgery Industry Sags with Economy, it’s evident that business is down for plastic surgeons around the country and the cost of plastic surgery procedures and the poor economy are to blame.

Cost of Plastic Surgery

This isn’t to say that no one is getting plastic surgery anymore. Instead of paying for more typically expensive procedures like a facelift or eyelid surgery, many people are opting for less expensive but not as permanent procedures such as facial fillers like Botox, Restylane or Juvederm.

Plastic surgery costs differ from state to state and even city to city so it is a good idea to do some research when looking into the prices of the plastic surgery procedure you are interested in. Financing for plastic surgery is also an option that not many people are aware of.
