Botox Anyone?

Botulinum toxin reigns among the minimally invasive cosmetic options. Plastic surgeons performed 15.5 million minimally invasive procedures in 2016, of which botulinum toxin type A was number one in the top five, with more than 7 million procedures in 2016. Soft tissue fillers came in second at more than 2.6 million procedures. Rounding out the top five minimally invasive cosmetic procedures by plastic surgeons last year: Chemical peels, up 4% from 2015; laser hair removal, which was a percentage point down from 2015; and microdermabrasion, which also fell from the prior year in popularity, by 3%.
