The New Trend In Cosmetic Procedures: Less is More
The number of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed has grown nearly 200 percent since 2000 and in 2019, that trend is expected to continue - but with a "less is more" twist.
‘We don’t see a lot of patients anymore who are bringing in photos of movie stars and saying they want to look like them,” says Dr. Jerome Potozkin (https://www.mybeautymd.com), author of the new book Botox and Beyond: Your Guide to Safe, Nonsurgical, Cosmetic Procedures. “Most of our patients now just want to be a better version of themselves. They are taking advantage of the many low-cost minimally invasive procedures that have been introduced in the last few years.”
Minimally invasive procedures usually have less pain, a shorter hospital stay (or no hospital stay at all) and fewer potential complications. Other advantages include the low cost and little or no downtime, as some of the procedures can be done over a lunch break. Plus, many patients like that there is less of a chance that their friends will notice a dramatic change in appearance.
Dr. Potozkin, who is a board-certified dermatologist who is specially trained in the art and science of dermatological surgery, says just a few of the new trends expected to become even more popular in 2019 include:
Injectables. The accessibility of injectables means there is less downtime for a procedure, lower cost and less invasiveness. Injectables, lasers, and skin resurfacing can be relatively quick procedures, often with immediately visible effects.
More cosmetic treatments by men. There has been a slow but steady increase in the number of men seeking cosmetic procedures as it becomes more mainstream. The total number of cosmetic surgical procedures performed among men was 1.2 million in 2015 -- more than triple the number of men since 1997.
Exaggerated cosmetic procedures will decline. Patients are increasingly wanting to maintain their general face structure, inherited family traits, and just generally wanting to look like themselves, but with a few refined tweaks.
Less medical tourism. What was once an emerging trend of people going to foreign countries for cheaper cosmetic procedures will continue to decline. “Horror stories of complications with no way to remedy them have resulted in many patients realizing that the cost savings are simply not worth gambling with their appearance,” Dr. Potozkin says.
The non-surgical facelift. This procedure delivers focused ultrasound energy deep into the skin, which causes it to lift and tighten and promote maximum collagen rejuvenation. “Collagen is what keeps the skin looking plump, but it decreases with age,” Dr. Potozkin says. “Studies show that collagen production continues to increase in the six to 12 weeks after the procedure, resulting in a tighter, more contoured look that can last for more than a year.”
“The number of people seeking non-invasive cosmetic treatments will continue to increase,” Dr. Potozkin says, “as even more innovative procedures are developed in the coming year.”

FEBRUARY 19, 2019 - MADISON, WI - Masked Intruder have released a new song and music video for "All Of My Love". Fans can stream the new song and watch the new music today exclusively with Brooklyn Vegan. The song is taken from their upcoming new album III out March 1 through Pure Noise Records.
The band previously released "No Case" and "Please Come Back To Me" from III.
For the new album, the band - Intruder Blue, Intruder Green, Intruder Red and Intruder Yellow - recruited lead producer/engineer Roger Lima (who also plays bass in Less Than Jake) as well as co-producer Mike Kennerty (who plays guitar in some band called The All-American Rejects) and recorded the album at Lima's studio, The Moat House in Gainesville, Florida.
"Our songs aren't just about the feelings and situations that they describe but they're supposed to hopefully help other people think about and reflect about their own situations," Intruder Blue summarizes.
Whether it comes to stealing hearts or wallets, Masked Intruder have upped their game on Masked Intruder III and it seems as if even Officer Bradford can't hold them back, although we're sure he'll try.
