* Breast reduction
may be covered by insurance, depending on
the patient's breast size, body type and symptoms.
**14.4% of these procedures were ultrasound-assisted
lipoplasty (UAL).
- Final figures are projected
to reflect nationwide statistics and are
based on a survey of doctors who have
been certified by American Board of Medical
Specialties recognized boards, including
but not limited to the American Board
of Plastic Surgery. The survey portion
of this research has a standard error
of +/-3.07% at a 95% level of confidence.
- Figures for procedures
include but are not limited to those performed
by ASAPS members. ASAPS members are plastic
surgeons certified by the American Board
of Plastic Surgery who specialize in cosmetic
surgery of the face and the entire body.
- Component figures may
not add exactly to totals and percentages
may not equal 100% due to rounding. In
no cases are the sums of component figures
off by more than .02% from the national
total number of procedures.
- 1997 was the first year
for which ASAPS has compiled these statistics.
The ASAPS statistical data are developed
annually.
- The ASAPS 2000 Statistics
on Cosmetic Surgery were funded in part
by the Aesthetic Surgery Education and
Research Foundation.
