Breast augmentation<\/span><\/a> continues to be one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures for women, and seems to only be gaining momentum as new trends and surgical techniques make the procedure more accessible and desirable for many women. In fact, 31 percent more <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a> procedures were performed in 2015 than in 2000, reflecting just how common breast implants have become in the last decade alone. (<\/span>American Society of Plastic Surgeons<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, trends in <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a> have fluctuated since the procedure became much more mainstream, and we\u2019ve already seen some major changes in the way women are viewing their <\/span>breast augmentations<\/span><\/a> in 2016. Here are the top 4 trends we\u2019ve already noticed:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Trending Towards More Subtle, Natural-Looking Results<\/span><\/h3>\n

Rather than seeking that \u201clarger-than-life\u201d look that characterized the breast implants of over a decade ago, an increasing number of women are choosing smaller, subtler implants. This may, in part, be due to the way society as a whole may now be viewing <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a>. The procedure is no longer thought of as something to which only celebrities have access. Instead, it has become accepted as a mere tool that all sorts of women can use to boost their self-confidence and form a positive body image. (<\/span>American Society of Plastic Surgeons<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

2. A Desire for More Aesthetic Side Profiles<\/span><\/h3>\n

Not only are women trending toward reducing the size of the implants they\u2019re choosing, but more and more women are now placing an emphasis on the side profile of their breasts, rather than simply focusing on the size. Countless fashion trends of 2015 and 2016 have showcased very popular modern cut-out styles of clothing, which may be contributing to this new trend in <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

3. Natural, \u201cEveryday\u201d Cleavage<\/span><\/h3>\n

While there\u2019s certainly a push towards subtler, natural-looking implants, many women still want an added boost to create effortless, \u201ceveryday\u201d cleavage for any occasion. More women are seeking breast implants that rest atop the breadth of the rib cage that can create this natural-looking cleavage without appearing too dramatic. For this reason, many women also choose to combine a breast lift with their augmentation, to create a naturally lifted appearance that can offer a subtle increase of cleavage. (<\/span>American Society of Plastic Surgeons<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

4. U-Shapes Are In, O-Shapes Are Out<\/span><\/h3>\n

The shape of a breast implant can greatly impact the final results of a <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a>, and in recent years, women are leaning towards the more natural-looking U-shaped implant over the more dramatic O-shape. A U-shaped implant much more closely mimics the natural shape of a woman\u2019s breasts, as opposed to the O-shape that can sometimes scream \u201cimplant!\u201d Because most women desire a more discreet and balanced look, while still achieving a firm, rounded, and youthful look, U-shaped implants are becoming much more popular.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bottom Line<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many women seek <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a> procedures to enhance the natural shape and contours of their body, while still maintaining a natural, subtle appearance. Whether they\u2019ve experienced a pregnancy, weight loss, or have simply always been self-conscious of the size, shape, or asymmetry of their breasts, more and more women are finding that breast implants can be a useful tool in improving their self-esteem and quality of life. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The trends we\u2019re seeing in 2016 that focus on very natural-looking and feeling breast implants are certainly reflective of the changing ways in which women now view <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a>. Rather than a procedure fit only for celebrities, many women have found that their <\/span>breast augmentation<\/span><\/a> has been able to offer a subtle boost in volume or shape, which, in turn, can significantly boost their body image.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
