2008 will see a return to facelifts
A cosmetic surgery expert at Boston University who specializes in revising the work of other surgeons predicts the upcoming year will see many changes in the industry. The professor has seen many examples of the failings of cosmetic surgery fads, like the thread lift. Not only did these procedures not give the same results as a facelift, but often the thread was visible through the skin and in some cases, the barbs on the thread caused patients lasting pain. He predicts thread lifts will pass out of fashion, with people returning to more reliable methods such as facelifts and mini-lifts.
A second major trend will be the continuing improvement of injectable fillers. We have seen the lifespan of injectable fillers increase already, as Radiesse has a longer lifespan than Restylane, which lasts longer than collagen injections. Now it appears that there is the possibility of a permanent filler on the horizon.
Finally, 2008 will see new and innovative Laser Treatments that will continue to improve upon current results.
