AACS Consumer Perception Survey 2006

Tuesday September 19, 2006 ins: Cosmetic Surgery News Tag(s):

The American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (AACS) conducted a survey that would gauge current consumer perception relating to celebrity ‘must-have’ features, cosmetic procedures and other matters related to cosmetic surgery.

HealthNewsDigest tells about the important highlights of the survey results. The results show that only 6% of the adult population has done cosmetic surgery. However, almost 20% said that that they want to do it at some point in their lives, especially if the wrinkles and jowls become too much to take.

Additional highlights of the results report include:

An overwhelming five out of six consumers believe that personal appearance is key to professional success.

When asked how open they would be about a cosmetic surgery procedure, 33% of consumers said they would tell only those who asked, while 18% said they would tell only close friends and family.

The two most wanted celebrity features, according to the survey, are Jennifer Aniston’s eyes for women (46%) and Nick Lachey’s abs for men (51%).

Other interesting tidbits from the result include 12% of the men surveyed are open to cosmetic surgery, and that the cost of the procedures discourage 54% from going under the knife.
