Experts from the field of beauty services have listed the strangest trends in plastic surgery. The relevant material is published by the Daily Star.
It is noted that during the coronavirus pandemic, the demand for surgeries to change the appearance has sharply increased. Due to the increase in video calls and video calls among people working from home, the term Lockdown Face has emerged.
The director of the British beauty clinic Save Face, Ashton Collins, said that in March 2020, when there was the most stringent self-isolation regime, traffic to the site of the medical facility increased by 40 percent compared to the previous month.
“We were inundated with questions that said, 'I noticed that I have terrible wrinkles on the bridge of my nose,' 'my lips need fixing,' or 'I have a crooked nose,'” he added.
Abnormal Clinic Cagla Dirlik named the strangest surgical procedures clients have sought. She explained that many are opting for non-surgical treatments such as fillers and fillers.
Some of the most in-demand surgeries, she says, include body reshaping, such as liposuction and correction of the abdomen and back, and a lip lift, which reduces the space between the nose and upper lip in order to give it volume.
Women are also in demand for "gold" and "French" threads - a type of threadlifting, in which temporary stitches or threads are inserted under the skin to fill in the free areas and make a facelift. “Threadlifting is a popular procedure because it is lightweight. It takes about 30 minutes and can be done under local anesthesia.”
The expert also spoke about the lifting procedure called the "web". It consists of introducing polydioxone intertwined threads under the skin using fine needles. This stimulates the production of collagen in the body and is doubly effective in tightening problem areas.
In June 2020, plastic surgeon Dmitry Elenshleger said that Russians massively applied for plastic surgeries after the restrictions were lifted: “Women most often think about new breasts and buttocks, some receive such surgeries as a gift from their gentlemen. Operations to correct the shape of the nose and ears are now popular among men. We took a closer look at ourselves, sitting at home, and, apparently, decided to improve the aesthetic appearance."
