The South Atlantic region of the United
Sates ranks third in the number of cosmetic
surgical procedures according to the American
Society of Plastic Surgery. The region is
responsible for 19 percent of the 2004 plastic
surgery market (374,000 people), and many
of these folks lived in the Baltimore, Maryland
area. Among the most popular surgeries in
the South Atlantic region was the forehead
lift and breast lift.
Baltimore Cosmetic Surgery by Gender
While the majority of Baltimore cosmetic
surgery consisted of women, 13 percent of
U.S patients were men--a 16 percent increase
from 2000. Why is plastic surgery growing
in popularity? Are more men and women trying
to turn back the hands of time and regain
their youth?
While age does play a significant factor
in motivation, there are other reasons patients
seek medical help to reshape their bodies.
Many patients have lived their entire lives
unsatisfied with their bodies. Women complain
of small breasts and men are unhappy with
the noses they were born with. Still others
look to plastic surgery to repair damage
caused by pregnancy or cancer. Whatever
your reason or motivation for having cosmetic
surgery, Physicians Marketing Group is here
to guide you through the process.

Group has been working to establish a network
