Statistics published by The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery report a 48% increase in cosmetic procedures for 2000-2001 and a 14% increase for rhytidectomies alone. Patients aged 35 to 50 account for 30.2% of all rhytidectomies performed. Many of these patients undergo secondary rhytidectomy.
