Anti Aging with Sasha - Your surgical options

Plastic surgery - your treatment options

Are you dissatisfied with the way you look? In the old days, if it couldn't be cured with make up and exercise, you were stuck with it. These days cosmetic surgery is no longer reserved for the super-rich.

In 2004 there were an enormous number of cosmetic surgery proceedures performed on Americans! In fact this number rose by 44% to around 12 million operations annually.

As the results become more predictable, an the surgery safer, I have the feeling that elective surgery will one day soon broaden its horizons - as it has done already on some of the fringes of society. Orlan, for instance, the French performance artist - considers surgery a form of art (which it is of course. Don't let the technical side convince you otherwise. All art has its technical side) and has the most bizarre things done to herself. The last I recall she intended to have her nose reshaped to that of a pig's snout.

I'm sure she has her reasons.

The rest of us are not quite so daring. Yet. Well OK theres the Leopard Man in the UK with tattooed spots and implanted whiskers - and you can't tell me he looks any more strange than the Big Hair Brigade and the Blue Rinse Set.

One day soon I think it will be considered more strange to live your entire life off the peg. I'm all for a bit of surgical customization, being a modern girl.

Looks like the rest of you are catching up with me too. Lets see..

Plastic surgery such as liposuction, breast augmentations, and face lifts grew by 17%.

Here are the raw figures..

Liposuction 478,251
Breast augmentation 334,052
Eyelid surgery 290,343
Rhinoplasty (nose job) 166,187
Facelift 157,061
