With liposuction having overtaken breast augmentation as the world’s most popular form of cosmetic surgery, there’s no question that changing trends are a key part of aesthetic medicine, which saw over 30 million surgical and non-surgical procedures carried out in 2021. Celebs have long been a driving force behind cosmetic trends, with many revealing the work they’ve had done over the years. From aiming for a more natural look to addressing specific issues or concerns, here are just a couple of key ways in which celebs continue to influence the direction of aesthetic procedures today.
Embracing a more natural look
While celebs like Blac Chyna (who has reclaimed her birth name, Angela White) have taken to removing their aesthetic modifications in order to embrace a more natural look, others have resorted to getting procedures that refrain from the over-the-top results that we’ve come to know and love in the past. Dr. Paul S. Nassif, M.D., F.A.C.S. and star of Botched! told Fox News Digital about common celebrity procedures. While the focus has been on eyelid rejuvenation, Nassif highlighted that other common procedures among celebs include deep plane face-lifts or deep plane face and neck-lifts, emphasizing that the look is ‘very natural.’ “Good plastic surgery, you can’t tell. Very important to know.”
Much more than a new look
While many celebrities are opting for procedures that reflect a natural look, others may be in search of a confidence boost, with many celebs admitting to the procedures they’ve had in an attempt to put an end to the stigma while also pointing out the value that some procedures can have in addressing specific issues. Lilly Ghalichi of the Shahs of Sunset, for instance, revealed in January 2023 that she underwent a nose job. “Most people would hide this, some maybe even deny this,” she wrote on Instagram. “My nose was very cute, but I couldn’t breathe and it was crooked and collapsed a little. I’m so beyond impressed. …I can breathe! It’s straight!”
Beyond the face
Many celebs have revealed the procedures they’ve had in an attempt to put an end to the stigma of cosmetic surgery while also highlighting the value that some procedures can have in addressing medical issues. Vaginal rejuvenation is just one procedure that several celebs have undergone — Jada Pinkett Smith, for instance, revealed that after undergoing three procedures, her bladder issues were resolved, highlights one 2018 People.com article. “I was telling my mom, I actually had it for my bladder issues,” Pinkett Smith explained. “Which completely went away after three treatments.” Vaginal rejuvenations can also help with dryness, incontinence, and pain during sex, along with changing the outside appearance.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, vaginal rejuvenation is a broad term for various vaginal corrective treatments, both surgical and non-surgical — such as labiaplasty, vaginoplasty, or laser treatments (to name a few). For instance, menopause, postpartum, weight loss/gain are just a few experiences that may loosen the pelvic floor. As a result, such factors can cause women to lose tightness in the vaginal area. A vaginoplasty procedure helps to tighten not only the vaginal opening, but the inner vagina as well through a minimally invasive procedure that helps remove the superfluous vaginal lining as well as tightening/stitching the connecting tissue in between the levator ani muscles and rectovaginal fascia.
Celebs have long influenced trends surrounding cosmetic procedures. As time passes, however, the focus has shifted to achieving a more natural look, or getting procedures to address medical issues.
