2016 could definitely be called the year of the rear. Popular culture was rather obsessed with ample rear ends. We couldn’t seem to get enough of bodacious bottoms, and many of our favorite celebrities reflect this. It’s not a surprise that butt enhancement surgeries were a hot commodity in 2016. What’s next?
While there’s no way of knowing for sure, here’s what the experts are saying will be the most likely plastic surgery trends of 2017.
Putting Your Best Face Forward
Facial plastic surgery and medical spa treatments are expected to rise in popularity in 2017. This follows a trend toward minimizing skin imperfections and appearing more youthful. Chalk this up in part to the significant role of social media in many people’s lives. If you’ll be following this trend, choose a board-certified plastic surgeon for your med spa procedures.

It’s all but certain that nonsurgical body contouring procedures will trend in 2017. Today’s non-invasive techniques can produce excellent results without the need for surgery. Zero downtime is an especially attractive benefit in an increasingly fast-paced world. It’s probably safe to say that people will continue to seek out gentle fat removal therapies like CoolSculpting® in the coming year.
Some Things Never Go Out of Style
Of course, some plastic surgery procedures have been trending for years and will likely remain popular in 2017 and beyond. Tried-and-true body contouring procedures like liposuction and tummy tucks will probably retain their status as most-requested cosmetic surgeries. Breast augmentation is another plastic surgery classic that’s likely to remain a top choice among women.
